History:
I picked up this 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 from Aurora, Illinois in November of 2014. It had been stored away for a few years prior to my ownership, and shows just 73,152 miles (although I add about ten more each week). It was driven to Fort Myers, FL, in May of 2015, and driven back to West Lafayette, IN, in 2016. It was garaged from 2014 to 2016, and currently resides outside in West Lafayette with regular use and a car cover.

Overview:
This Camaro is powered by a 305ci LG4 V8 paired to a 4-speed manual transmission. This third generation Camaro has been well maintained, with regular service and occasional parts replacements. Service records from the previous owner and myself are included along with two sets of keys and the car cover. It comes with a clean Indiana title.

Body:
The car benefits from a recent repaint in its original factory Charcoal (84), though the rally stripe trim around the bottom of the car has remained original. A dent from the 1990s has been repaired on the driver's side, as shown during the recent repaint. Underneath, surface rust can be found on the differential housing, muffler, and catalytic converter. The frame, body panels, and floors remain completely rust free. The wheels sport the original Z/28 center caps and wear Mastercraft Avenger GTs with substantial tread showing.

Mechanical and electrical bits:
Lights and accessories are all working properly, with new hood and hatch struts added in 2014; however, the tachometer, oil pressure, and coolant gauges are inoperable. The car doesn't leak a drop of any fluid, except for a very small amount of gear oil weeping from the rear differential (it's never needed filling). The engine starts and drives easily, and idles comfortably once warm.

Interior:
Inside, the Silver cloth seat upholstery shows no rips or tears. The carpets have been preserved with four all-weather floor mats. There are no cracks on the dash, but the shift knob shows some wear. The car was optioned with air conditioning (though its in need of a new compressor) and an electric rear window defroster. A new Pioneer radio with Bluetooth and four speakers was installed in 2015.
