Vehicle Description
There's no doubting the F1 Camaro's significance in the collector
car world. Like the '57 Bel Air and C2 Corvette, first-generation
F-Bodies are considered one of the all-time great Chevrolet
classics. That said, the popularity of second-generation Camaros is
certainly growing. Ask any young enthusiast what their favorite
year panther is and you're just as likely to hear "1970" "1973" or
"1980" as "1967", "1968" or "1969". But here's the kicker: at this
point in time, there simply aren't that many really nice F2s on the
market. And that's why it's a great idea to get ahead of the curve
by investing a little money in this clean cruiser. Sporting a
correct 350/4-speed drivetrain and conservative Dark Blue over
Oyster aesthetics, this Z is a vision of opportunistic '80s
performance. And, as a fully sorted cruiser that's benefitted from
over 40 years of excellent maintenance, it's a solid piece of
classic car potential that's available for relatively modest
money!
WORKING MAN'S FERRARI
General Motors envisioned the second-generation Camaro as a working
man's Ferrari and, thanks to a better timeframe and bigger budget,
effectively addressed many of the complaints enthusiasts had about
the F1. Longer, wider, lower to the ground and more aggressive, the
'hugger' was certainly more of a driver's car, and is widely
regarded as some of the best iron Detroit ever produced. Born in
Norwood, Ohio, this F2 has been exceptionally maintained by
fastidious owners for over 42 years. The car's solid sheetmetal, a
sporty profile that's supplemented with correct door guards and
factory T-tops, reflects subdued Dark Blue Metallic pigment.
Tri-color emblems, Silver stripes and tri-color taillights
highlight satin grilles, satin buckets, correct spoilers, and
original brightwork. And, as far as we can tell, this coupe has
never been fully disassembled, with the aforementioned owners
choosing to wear the car's weathering as a badge of honor.
CHEVY 350
Tilt this Chevy's long hood and you'll find a 350 cubic inch
Chevrolet V8 that proudly displays a correct 14010207 casting
number. The car's big Quadrajet carburetor, sealed to a
single-snorkel, cowl induction air cleaner, funnels life in to a
correct, cast iron intake. At the sides of that intake, correct
heads hang stamped and painted valve covers over coated Hedman
Hedders. Behind those tubes, a Delco-Remy distributor sequences
fire through pliable AC Delco plug wires. The car's factory air
conditioning system has been thoughtfully updated with R134a. And
the car's factory-spec aesthetics mix smooth, Satin Black framing
with a vivid GM Corporate Blue core.
PUTTING THE F41 IN Z28
In 1980, the only transmission you wanted in your Z28 was a tough
Borg Warner Super T10 4-speed, and that's exactly what lives behind
this car's stout small block. Naturally, that gear slinger centers
a correct 13-04-065-904 casting number in front of a correct,
posi-traction axle that's stuffed with correct, 3.08 gears. That
driveline hangs in a correct F41 Sport Suspension, which combines
correct power steering with correct power front disc and rear drum
brakes. Those bones are dissected by aluminized exhaust, which
centers a big X-pipe in front of Pypes Street Pro mufflers. Above
those tubes, solid floors wear thick undercoating. And those floors
roll on factory alloy wheels, which spin 225/70R15 BF Goodrich
Radial T/As around snazzy Z28 center caps.
1980s STYLE
Open the car's big doors and you'll find a correct Deluxe Interior
that's been maintained to factory specifications. A quartet of
cloth buckets is free of significant wear. In front of those seats,
a muted dash hangs direct-fit audio under a full array of factory
telemetry. At the bottom of that dash, a muted console centers a
chrome shifter and buttons for correct power windows on fade-free
carpet that's protected by color-keyed floor mats. Opposite that
console, one-piece door panels frame correct power door locks. And
the driver stays connected through a familiar, 4-spoke steering
wheel, which laps a correct tilt column.
One of the world's most enduring combinations of performance and
style, classic Camaros present excellent opportunity for savvy
enthusiasts. And, because of their cool aesthetics,
second-generation cars are likely to rise in both value and demand.
With its tidy appearance and correct drivetrain, this fully sorted
coupe is the kind of old school muscle that can make any enthusiast
happy. And for the low asking, it's one heck of a deal!
