Vehicle Description
There's few cars on the market that can match the sheer athletic
looks of the Chevrolet Camaro, and even fewer that look as menacing
as this one does. This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 is absolutely
incredible, clocking in at only 94k original miles and standing out
with a killer graphics package and an immaculate interior. Wrapping
a correct Chevrolet small-block 350 C.I. V8 under the hood and
pairing it to a 4-barrel carburetor, this '79 Z-28 really moves.
Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic
transmission, allowing for smooth cruising as it shifts seamlessly.
As sweet as they appear, the Camaros of the late 70s and early 80s
tend to get overlooked, which is a shame because these Camaros came
with some of the coolest decal packages ever equipped from the
factory. A correct, 19-code "Gloss Black" paint covers the exterior
wonderfully, pairing excellently with the exceptionally-striking
orange & red Z-28 decals. It reflects like a mirror in the sun
after being buffed to a brilliant shine, and it covers bodylines
that are nice and straight. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs are
all rock-solid, and they all present well! The interior is
positively stunning, nearly all-original with comfy tan cloth &
vinyl bucket seats and a full center console. This '79 Camaro came
with plenty of options from the factory, all of which are still
present! They include power steering, power brakes, front disc
brakes, power windows, factory A/C, "dual-sport" mirrors, a remote
driver's mirror, the original gauges and tachometer, the original
AM/FM stereo, a tilt steering wheel, a rear defroster, and a
sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on factory-spec
15" black Z-28 wheels over Uniroyal Tiger Paw RWL tires for a look
straight out of 1979! As slick as this Camaro appears, it runs and
drives down the interstate even better. You'll be hard-pressed to
find another Z-28 with the level of originality and correctness
that this one has, so don't let it pass you by! We'd love to see
you drive it away.
