1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 302 Cross Ram for sale! Motorcar Classics
is proud to present this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 as a properly
iconic example, featuring the legendary high-winding 302 cubic inch
small-block topped with the ultra-desirable cross-ram induction
setup, delivering razor-sharp throttle response and the kind of
Trans Am-bred performance that made these cars famous on both
street and track. Finished in rare and highly sought-after Tuxedo
Black, the car presents with a menacing, period-correct stance that
perfectly frames its aggressive body lines, while the matching
Tuxedo Black interior is elevated by deluxe Tuxedo Black
houndstooth upholstery, blending upscale flair with purposeful
sportiness. Power is routed through a 4-speed manual transmission,
giving the driver a direct, engaging connection to the drivetrain
and allowing full use of the 302's rev-happy character, making
every shift an event and every drive feel special.From a
collectability standpoint, factory-style cross-ram Z/28s sit at the
very top of the first-generation Camaro hierarchy, with documented
cars commanding a substantial premium over standard Z/28s in the
marketplace due to their low production, direct factory racing
connection, and status as the ultimate expression of the DZ 302
package. The combination of the cross-ram induction, 4-speed, and
rare Tuxedo black over black houndstooth color scheme places this
example firmly in blue-chip territory for serious Camaro and Trans
Am-era Chevrolet collectors, offering strong long-term desirability
as well as excellent eligibility for top-tier shows, events, and
curated collections. The Z/28 is historically significant because
it was the Camaro model that truly established Chevrolet's
performance credibility, born specifically to homologate the car
for SCCA Trans-Am road racing in 1967 and engineered as a race
package first and a street car second. It introduced the
high-winding 302 cubic inch small-block, heavy-duty suspension, and
close-ratio 4-speed hardware that defined the Camaro as a serious
driver's car, rather than just a styling response to the Mustang.
Within Camaro history, the first-generation Z/28 became the core
performance identity of the brand, with extremely low production in
1967, growing enthusiast demand through 1968, and a breakout year
in 1969 when over 20,000 Z/28s were built and the package achieved
near-legend status among road racers and street performance buyers.
The Z/28 name and concept then carried forward across later Camaro
generations as the recurring pure driver variant, so much so that
Z/28 became shorthand in the hobby for the most track-focused,
naturally aspirated expression of the Camaro formula. Your
inspection is invited!
