Vehicle Description
This is a 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 RS LT coupe with its
numbers-matching V8 and four-on-the-floor. While that already makes
it quite attractive, the true irresistibility is in all the extras.
The upgraded aggressive style, correct RS presentation, power
upgrades, and cold-blowing A/C make it the one to have.
The cowl tag says this car is wearing its correct Dark Red
metallic, and that's the kind of color you want on an aggressive
coupe. The paint was given a quality respray a few years back, and
as you can see from the pictures, it still knows how to shine. The
result is an ideal mix of a sharp-looking coupe that you won't
hesitate to drive to any weekend event. More than just the color,
the allure in this one is about its total package. The lines are
clean, the gaps are pretty uniform, the glass is good, the weather
stripping is pliable, and the chrome is bright. The iconic RS
split-bumper creates an intimidating front end that looks like it
will inhale the traffic ahead. This one shows signs of coming from
the factory that way (currently, there's no buildsheet for
definitive proof, but the correct parts are there, including the
correct 1973-only bumper reinforcement bars and correct urethane
nose cone, which maintains the factory hood latch location, unlike
reproduction units.) And that big blackout grille goes nicely with
the upgraded black racing stripes painted on top. The aggression
continues with an L88 fiberglass hood, hood pins, chin spoiler, and
three-piece rear spoiler. It's a true muscle car style, right down
to the proper Z/28 mag wheels with a dark gray finish and raised
white-letter tires.
The factory-correct tan interior is a terrific standout color
against the dark tones of the exterior. The LT package goes for an
upper-class luxurious look with plenty of wood trim on door panels
and dash. This is a detailed vintage package, right down to the
button-top seatbacks and working dome light. Your overall
impression will be about a driver-quality presentation, which we
often like on such a driver-ready car. Upgrades like an AM/FM
digital tuner with cassette and recent investments in the
cold-blowing R134a air conditioning make for a nice driver. Plus,
the interior feels like it was built just for you. There are nice
factory pieces like front bucket seats, the grippy NK4 sports
steering wheel on a tilt column, and factory gauges with tach. This
is joined by the upgraded Hurst shifter and an oil pressure gauge
mounted under the dash.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic inch motor. The
bold block, correct decals, ribbed valve covers, and overall tidy
look give a terrific presentation. And as you dig deeper, the newer
plugs, wires, battery, and exhaust manifold gaskets reinforce the
feeling of a well-maintained classic. This V8 was the top-dog
powerhouse in 1973, and it continues that powerful tradition with
upgrades like a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a Holley intake, and
long tube headers. It fires up eagerly and makes a nice sound out
of the dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers. Best of all, you have
complete control over the V8 and its growl thanks to the
numbers-matching Muncie M20 four-speed manual transmission. This
coupe also has all the right driving features, such as power
steering, power brakes, front discs, rear traction bars, and newer
Cooper Cobra tires.
The sale comes with a warranty card, maintenance records, and
restoration photos. This is the second-gen Camaro with the Z/28 RS
packaging we all want. So when something this authentic is up for
grabs, it's time to take notice. Call now!
