This Camaro was purchased by one of the employees of our dealership in 2021. It was his personal car and was shown at many car shows over the past few years and has one countless trophies and awards. Knowing this gentleman, he is the exact person that you would want to buy a car from. Anything this car every needed he did to it. He is detail orientated and has prepared hundreds of Corvettes over the years for Seven Hills Motorcars and is extremely meticulous with a great eye for detail. This Z28 being his personal car, was treated to just about the best care and attention a classic car could receive. All of his vehicles are kept spotlessly clean. He took great attention to small details like finding a finned air cleaner to match the GM finned aluminum valve covers. He fabricated custom Z28 emblems to put on the valve covers. He spent the extra money to replace the hoses in the engine compartment with GM hoses. Everything on the car has been very well thought out and whoever gets the privilege of owning this car next will not be disappointed and will be buying one of the nicest and best cared for 1979 Camaros on the market.

The engine in the car is a built 3970010 block with roller rockers, a mild cam, and Hedman HTC coated headers. Having driven many other second-generation Camaros this car is very fast. A new Holley 600 CFM Street Avenger carburetor was installed earlier year on an Edelbrock intake. It has Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers with stainless tips, a Hurst Competition Plus shifter, Moroso 8mm wires, Accel shorty performance spark plugs, and a newer AC Delco battery. The previous owner had the driveshaft balanced and new u joints installed recently. He also installed a 4-row radiator that was flushed and pressure tested. During his time with the car exclusively used Lucas 10-W40 engine oil with a Wix filter. He kept detailed records and there are dozens of receipts that go with the car.

This Z28 is finished in the beautiful and desirable color combination of Dark Blue (29) over Black (24). This is the correct and original color scheme as verified by the codes on the trim tag. The low original mileage is shown as "Actual" on the clear Ohio title. Please peruse all of the photos, video, and information in this ad to get a true sense of clean and nice this Z28 really is.

As a side note, this Z28 Camaro is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the Camaro, just give us a call.

Exterior

The Dark Blue (29) exterior is in excellent condition. As one can see in the photos, the paint has an awesome gloss, dazzling shine, and smooth finish. The trim and decals are in amazing condition with no fading or peeling. The factory rally wheels are great condition with a nice finish and no curb rash. The raised white letter tires were installed by the previous owner so they only have about 1,500 miles on them with plenty of tread left. The front tires are 225/70R15 and the rear tires are 255/60R15 so the car has a great stance. There are no major blemishes that have been intentionally excluded from the photos. There are a couple small spots on the front bumper and some other very tiny imperfections around car that were too small to show up in pictures, but nothing else that is really noticeable from about five or ten feet away. As one can see in the many photos of the underside the bottom of the car is clean. We have included specific photos of the spring perches, rockers, lower quarter panels, and other areas most prone to rust on a second generation Camaro to show how nice this car looks.

Interior

The Black (24) interior of the Z28 is in fantastic condition. The seats look just as great in person as they do in the photos with no split seams, rips, or excessive wear. The seats are not overly worn in the typical area on the bolster where the driver gets in and out. The gauge faces are clean and crisp. The carpet is also in excellent condition with no stains, rips, or holes. The door panels are in good condition overall and fit well to the doors. The door pulls are solid and intact. The RetroSound Laguna radio works well, gets good reception, and looks great with a vintage look, but with the benefits of modern technology. The stereo system also sounds great with Kenwood 6x9 speakers. The dash looks great with no cracks or sun fading. The package tray is in nice shape and not faded or warped.

The trunk is clean, nicely detailed, and complete with the correct space saver spare, inflater bottle, jack, jack base, and jack handle. There is also a blue fire extinguisher with a GM logo on it.

Camaro interiors from this era are not known to wear well and the excellent condition of this interior is a huge testament to the thoughtful care this car has received throughout it's life and another great verification of low milage.

Mechanical

This Z28 seems is in excellent mechanical condition. As stated above, the previous was meticulous with maintenance and did anything to car that it ever needed. There are also dozens of receipts and maintenance records for thousands of dollars. The 350ci starts right away every time, runs well, and idles smooth. This Camaro is an exceptional driver that feels great on the road; it handles awesome. In the video in this ad one can observe the car accelerating on the highway up to about 65mph, shifting through all the gears, braking to stoplight, and going through some curves. Please note that there are no strange noises or vibrations and the car performs quite well overall. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one side or the other. The shifter is tight, the transmission does not pop out of gear, and the clutch feels good. This Camaro has plenty of power and is quite fast. Also, the engine compartment is beautifully clean and detailed as one can see in the photos.

The horn works as do all the exterior lights, interior lights, dash lights, indicators, wipers, rear window defogger, and the blower for the heater on all speeds. Even detailed items like the glove box light work. All of the gauges work with the obvious exception of the clock. The previous owner installed a small aftermarket temp gauge to more accurately monitor the engine temp, which has never gotten too hot. The car now has a true dual exhaust system with no catalytic converter and a very healthy exhaust note from the Flowmater Super 44 mufflers as one can hear in the video. The car came from the factory with air condi...for more information please contact the seller.
