Seven Hills Motorcars is glad to offer this numbers matching 1978 Camaro in fantastic driver condition with only 88,855 original miles. This Camaro looks stunning, runs great, and is an excellent driver. The car has great lines and one can even see how clean the car is underneath in the many photos of the underside. This is an excellent opportunity to own a classic Camaro that is ready to be used and enjoyed at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come as these second-generation F-Body Camaros are appreciating fast and the market on them is red hot right now.

The Carmine (77) over Carmine (74R) interior is a very rare and beautiful color combination that looks stunning on the car. It is also the correct and original color scheme as verified by the codes on the trim tag, which is pictured in this ad. Besides the correct paint and trim codes this Camaro is "numbers matching" meaning the engine in the car is the original unit that was installed new at the factory in Norwood, OH. The last six digits of the VIN, 611228, are stamped on the engine pad verifying it as the original engine.

The very low original mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car, but also the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad, that shows the mileage as "Actual." Please peruse all of the photos, video, and information in this ad to get a true sense of how clean, nice, and original this Camaro really is.

As a side note, this 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 Carmine (77) exterior is in excellent driver condition. As one can see in the photos the finish has a terrific gloss, deep shine, and smooth finish. The chrome and other bright work look great with a brilliant finish and no pitting. The chrome rally wheels are in amazing condition with a bright finish and no curb rash. The GoodYear Eagle GTII raised white letter tires have plenty of tread left and are correctly sized 235/60R15. There are no major imperfections that have been intentionally excluded from the photos. There are some spots in the paint around the car, some spots on the hood scoop, and other tiny blemishes that were too faint to show up in the photos, but nothing that is noticeable from about five feet away. As one can see in the many photos of the underside, the car is clean underneath and we have not seen rust issues. We have included specific photos of the spring perches, rockers, lower quarter panels, upper area of the trunk below the rear window, and other areas most prone to rust on a second-generation Camaro to show how nice this car looks.

Interior

The Carmine (74R) interior of the Camaro is in wonderful condition. The seats look just as great in person as they do in the photos with no rips, split seams, 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 and the gauge lenses are clear. The carpet is in great condition with no major stains, rips, or holes, just some small signs of wear from over the years. This includes the rear carpet, which is often neglected. The door panels are in great condition overall and fit well to the doors. The door pulls are solid and intact. The dash is a bit warped, which is a typical issue on this ear Camaro. The dash has a carpeted cover so this issue is not very noticeable. The radio sounds great and gets good reception. Please note that both seat belts work and retract properly. This is a common problem on second generation Camaros and an issue many buyers do not think to check. The original package tray is not warped and in excellent condition. The headliner is in excellent condition and not sagging at all. The trunk is clean and nicely detailed.

Camaro interiors from this era are not known to wear well and the excellent condition of this interior is a huge testament to the meticulous care and attention this car has received throughout its life and another great verification of the very low original mileage.

Mechanical

This Camaro seems to be in great mechanical condition. The numbers matching engine starts right away every time, runs well, and idles smooth. This Camaro is a nice driver that feels great on the road and at highway speeds. In the video in this ad one can observe the car accelerating on the highway up to about 70mph, 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 transmission shifts well throughout the power band. 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 the wipers, exterior lights, interior lights, dash lights, oil light, fasten seat belt light, and hazard lights. The blower for the heater and air conditioning works on all speeds. The A/C blows cold and the compressor can be seen engaging properly in the video. All of the gauges work. Not enough can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car.

Overall Condition

As stated above, numbers matching is extremely important in Chevrolet pricing and will become even more important as time passes and this car becomes older and even more rare.
