And builds like this clean F2 resto-mod, with its modern drivetrain and substantially improved suspension, are always hot sellers. Are you one of the many enthusiasts tirelessly searching for a captivating pony car? Don't miss your chance to claim this awesome Z28!

BODYWORK/TRIM

Recently built into a lean, mean pavement-pounding machine, this spectacular Chevy wears a 2-year rotisserie restoration that features many thoughtful upgrades which modernize both performance and appeal. The car's transformation started when its solid panels were thoroughly stripped and subjected to a bit of high quality sheetmetal work. When that work was complete, those panels were aligned to better-than-factory fit. Pearl Orange base was accented with Pearl White Rally Stripes, sealed in thick clear and buffed to a deep shine. And today, this MacNeish-authenticated Z28 rolls as one eye catching classic that mixes major street presence with lethal curb appeal!

When it comes to '70s metal and body modification, it's best to trust Detroit's keen eye for clean lines. Too many modern bits can make a build look disjointed, and too much customization just makes everything look tacky. Thankfully, the restorers did an excellent job of maintaining this Camaro's classy form. At the front of the car, a broad grille hangs a small "Z28" emblem between a sculpted spoiler, bright Rally Sport bumpers and modern, tri-bar headlights. Above that grille, an ornate header emblem fronts a factory hood, which founds factory-tint glass behind polished frames and hidden wipers. At the sides of that glass, a sculpted profile founds factory door handles and color-keyed mirrors above fresh marker lamps and two more "Z28" emblems. And at the back of the car, a third bright bumper reflects a chrome trunk lock, Rally Sport taillights and a "Z28" branded deck spoiler.

ENGINE

Work this panther's coated hood supports and you'll find 6.0 liters of GM LS small block that distills effortless power into a bounty of tire-shredding torque! At the front of the engine, a GM serpentine drive spins a rebuilt alternator opposite a modern AC compressor. At the top of the engine, a proven LS1 throttle body bridges the gap between an LS1 intake and monochromatic cold air components. Sparks are sequenced through pliable AC Delco plug wires, which feed off a Speartech ECM and Speartech wiring harness. A quality Comp cam pushes spent gases through coated exhaust manifolds. And cooling comes courtesy of a beefy aluminum radiator that's fitted with large SPAL puller fans. Aesthetically, both the Jet Black mill and its assortment of clean accessories seem right at home inside their smooth, Pearl Orange frame. And details, like braided fluid lines, trick fender bars, a Wilwood master cylinder and custom fuel rail covers, ensure this Chevy has the looks to match its performance.

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

Speaking of looks, take a look under this fully sorted classic and you'll find a professionally restored chassis that's clean and ready to roll. Behind the smooth small block, a proven 4L60E 4-speed twists torque to a tough 12-bolt axle that's fitted with big, 3.70 gears and an Auburn posi-traction differential. Beneath that solid driveline, a massaged suspension cages Detroit Speed control arms and adjustable QA-1 coil-overs between beefy sway bars. Those bones turn thanks to modern power steering. At the corners of the car, power-assisted calipers clamp four drilled and slotted rotors. Charred dinosaurs float from the aforementioned manifolds to large-diameter pipes that employ aggressive Magnaflow mufflers. Power meets the pavement through attractive aftermarket wheels, which spin 245/40ZR17 Sumitomo HTR ZIIIs in front of 275/40ZR17 Sumitomo HTR ZIIIs. And items like braided fluid lines, sturdy subframe connectors and a tough TA Performance inspection cover show this Camaro was built to be driven!

INTERIOR

Inside this Chevy you'll find a stylish, lightly modified interior that features one of the coolest color schemes to ever roll off a GM assembly line. Modern GM buckets wear tight swaths of leather and cloth. In front of those seats, a color-keyed dash hangs Dakota Digital VHX telemetry above Vintage Air conditioning and modern Alpine audio. Beneath that dash, fade-free carpet floats "Z/28" branded floor mats between a factory console, a factory shifter and billet foot pedals. At the sides of that carpet, Standard door panels frame correct chrome hardware. In front of the driver, a satin-spoke steering wheel laps a tilting column. And behind the passengers, a fully restored trunk hides an Optima gel cell battery.
