Camaro Z28 1980

With the unveiling today of the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, we thought it would be cool to look back at the Z/28s of yore. The first one dates back to the original Camaro, which first hit American streets in the autumn of 1966 as a 1967 model.

1967 Z/28
Introduced in early 1967, the Camaro Z/28 package was created for the Sports Car Club of America’s year-old Trans-American road-race series. Included were dual stripes on the hood and trunk, wide red-stripe tires, “Rally” wheels, and an uprated suspension. The heart of the package was a special high-winding 302-cubic-inch V8 rated at 290 horsepower. Only 602 were built.

1969 Z/28
It was only the Camaro’s third model year, but the Z/28 was already a legend. The basic styling was reworked, and it was a masterful job. Great actually, and it served as the inspiration for the 2010 Camaro. Z/28s still had the specific 302-cubic-inch small block and a mandatory 4-speed manual transmission. Chevy made 20,302 Z/28s in ’69, a healthy increase over the 7,199 sold the year before.

1970 Z28
Camaro was completely redesigned for 1970, but it didn’t go on sale until February 26 of that year. The new car looked great in Z28 trim with racy “mag-style” wheels, a discreet rear spoiler, and the traditional dual stripes. Power came from a solid-lifter 350 that made a strong 360 horsepower.

1977 Z28
The Z28 was dropped after 1974, but enthusiasts applauded its return midway through the 1977 model year. This was the era of “tape-stripe” muscle, so the revived Z28 had to make due with a 185-horsepower 350.

1980 Z28
The basic body was a decade old, but the 1980 Camaro Z28 was still a desirable car in its day. Changes for this year included new striping, a body-color vertical-bar grille, functional front-fender vents, and rear-wheel well flares. A new “air induction” rear-facing hood scoop used a solenoid-activated intake door that opened at full throttle to draw cool air to the carburetor.

1982 Z28
The all-new third-generation 1982 Camaro debuted with great fanfare. Though smaller and lighter than its predecessor (wheelbase was shorter by 7 inches and overall length was cut by almost 10 inches), this new Camaro lost little interior room. Other new features included a compound S-curve glass hatchback and a standard 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine for base models. The Z28 shown here was V8 only, with the top engine a 305-cubic-inch small block with “Cross-Fire Injection.”

1993 Z28
An all-new fourth-generation Camaro debuted as a 1993 model. Two coupe models were available, base and Z28. The latter used a 275-horsepower version of the Corvette’s 5.7-liter “LT1” engine. The new Camaro was a logical choice for 1993 Indianapolis 500 pace-car duty. Chevy offered 645 limited-edition replicas for retail sale. With a nod to Camaro’s history at Indy, the 1993 pace car was posed with its ’67, ’69, and ’82 forerunners. Like the Camaro itself, the Z28 faded away at the end of the 2002 model year.

1980 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Description

Up for bid is a 1980 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. I have been the owner of this car for almost 15 years and it has sat in a field for most of them as I never had time to work on it. This car does not run or drive, is in terrible shape and needs a total restoration. It is being sold as-is, I've tried to describe most of the issues below. Buyer will also be responsible for moving the car to a new location.
Mechanical:The car does not run. The last time it ran was around 3 years ago, and even then it wouldn't switch into gear. Because it has been sitting for so long I didn't attempt to bring it back to life. Both the motor and transmission will probably need to be cleaned up and rebuilt. It will probably need some wiring work as well (nests).
Interior:The car interior is not in good shape. The car probably has rust issues in the floor pans and trunk. The headliner is falling, and the upholstery and paneling(floor carpet, speaker housing, seats, door panels, dash, rear quarter panels, back panels, etc.) are either falling apart or have already fallen apart. Expect the power windows, radio, and other mechanical items to need replace or repair.
Exterior:The body: It has some rust issues. In particular the trunk, hood, and driver side front fender are terrible, but there are other places as well. The lines are messed up (the hood is messed up, the door hinges are off (hence the probably floor pan issues). Most of the exterior fiberglass parts are damaged and will need pair as well. The undercarriage, chassis and wheel wells also have rust. It rides low in the back and will need shocks, struts, coils, etc. (probably both back and front)
Lights: The rear lights have some sort of moss growing on them. The front lights are missing bezels. Unsure if they work or need replaced/rewired.
Wheels: The wheels are not original. It currently has Western Uni Turbine with no mid caps. There are missing lugs and broken studs. The braking system will need repaired or replaced.
Windows: The windshield is cracked and will need to be replaced. The back glass has some weird tint issues.
As I said previously this car is a huge undertaking and will need a total restoration. It is sold as-is and there could be more wrong with the car than what I've mentioned.
I have a clean Arkansas title for the car.
