This 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is finished in Dark Brown Metallic with white stripes over Saddle vinyl and powered by a 350ci Turbo-Fire V8 that was rebuilt in 2019 and fitted with an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Holley carburetor, and an MSD electronic ignition system. A three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission was rebuilt in 2020. Additional equipment includes a Positraction differential, Hotchkis subframe connectors, Bilstein shock absorbers, power steering, front disc brakes, 15″ five-spoke wheels, front and rear spoilers, and a retro-style radio.
The car is finished in Dark Brown Metallic (68) and features a front spoiler, body-color sport mirrors, a bright full-width front bumper, a rear decklid spoiler, and quad recessed round taillights. The body mount bushings were recently changed as were the front coil springs and sway bar end links.
The 15″ five-spoke wheels are mounted with 235/60 Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. The Z28 package included front and rear stabilizer bars and a quick-ratio steering box. The seller notes that Hotchkis subframe connectors and Bilstein shock absorbers were recently installed along with replacement suspension bushings and front springs. Braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums. The power steering box was replaced.
The front bucket seats and individual rear seats are upholstered in Saddle vinyl and accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Interior appointments include a floor-mounted center console, a retro-style radio, and a heater. The dashboard is in good overall condition.
The four-spoke steering wheel fronts a 130-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock, and supplementary instruments. The coolant temperature and oil pressure readouts are inoperative, and corresponding AutoMeter gauges have been added beneath the dash. The five-digit odometer has rolled over and shows 3,972 miles.
The 350ci Turbo-Fire V8 was rebuilt at Motor Tech of New Bedford, Massachusetts, in 2019, at which time the engine compartment was repainted. The engine is equipped with a Comp Cams Thumpr camshaft, an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Holley carburetor, an MSD electronic ignition system, and an aftermarket exhaust system. The starter and fuel pump were replaced.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission that was reportedly rebuilt in 2020. The car is equipped with a Positraction limited-slip differential.
