Camaro Z28

Description

There's few cars on the market that can match the sheer athletic looks of the Chevrolet Camaro, and even fewer that look as menacing as this one does. This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 is absolutely incredible, clocking in at only 94k original miles and standing out with a killer graphics package and an immaculate interior. Wrapping a correct Chevrolet small-block 350 C.I. V8 under the hood and pairing it to a 4-barrel carburetor, this '79 Z-28 really moves. Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic transmission, allowing for smooth cruising as it shifts seamlessly. As sweet as they appear, the Camaros of the late 70s and early 80s tend to get overlooked, which is a shame because these Camaros came with some of the coolest decal packages ever equipped from the factory. A correct, 19-code "Gloss Black" paint covers the exterior wonderfully, pairing excellently with the exceptionally-striking orange & red Z-28 decals. It reflects like a mirror in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine, and it covers bodylines that are nice and straight. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all rock-solid, and they all present well! The interior is positively stunning, nearly all-original with comfy tan cloth & vinyl bucket seats and a full center console. This '79 Camaro came with plenty of options from the factory, all of which are still present! They include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, power windows, factory A/C, "dual-sport" mirrors, a remote driver's mirror, the original gauges and tachometer, the original AM/FM stereo, a tilt steering wheel, a rear defroster, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on factory-spec 15" black Z-28 wheels over Uniroyal Tiger Paw RWL tires for a look straight out of 1979! As slick as this Camaro appears, it runs and drives down the interstate even better. You'll be hard-pressed to find another Z-28 with the level of originality and correctness that this one has, so don't let it pass you by! We'd love to see you drive it away.
