RECENT WORK:
  • Re-Paint was done by an amateur. I decided to have a local body shop completely wet sand and polish the vehicle. It looks amazing in comparison to what it was. Still not a 10/10 paint job, but boy the car looks fantastic, even close up.
  • Brand new tires and chrome lug nuts in June/ 2019
  • Full tune-up including plugs, wires, distributor, fuel filter June/2019
  • Brand new shocks in July/2019
  • Brand new Dual Exhaust July/ 2019
  • Recent tear fix on driver seat performed by Fibrenew (Port Perry, ON)
  • Recently safety certified
HIGHLIGHTS:
  • The interior is really nice. The black vinyl seats are in excellent condition, as are the carpets. I believe both to be original.
  • The body is straight. The car's stance is strong.
  • The original red on black colour combo is very nice, and one of the most dynamic in my opinion.
  • All the electrical components work fine, down to the cigarette lighter, dome light and AM radio
  • The 305 engine runs strong and starts up without issue
  • All gauges are operational.
  • A small thing, but the ash tray is like new. I doubt that this car was ever smoked in.
  • Original brochures and build sheet included
  • An excellent show quality driver

WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO NEXT:
  • Head liner
  • Replace Triangle Seat belt guide (Driver side) - see pic
  • Speedometer cable is "whirring" when cold. Easy fix with some lubrication. Diminishes greatly when car warms up or on warm days.
  • Repair crack in dash - see pic
  • Weather Stripping
  • Wind shield is fine, but is showing its age.
NOTE: This Camaro is solid, currently insured and being enjoyed. The undercarriage and frame rails are free from rot. That being said, there is surface rust under the car and in certain areas around the car. This is to be expected from a 40 year old original vehicle. Please remember that this is a survivor that has not been restored. Aside from proper upkeep, storage and the paint job - This car is all original. A numbers matching camaro in excellent shape for 40 years. A very, very nice driver.
*** The car seems to have been rust proofed early on in its life. The rust proofing holes and plugs are still intact.
*** Vehicle is being SOLD AS IS. *** Eligible buyer will be from the USA or CANADA. It is the buyers responsibility to arrange/ pay for transport.
Feel free to ask any questions! More pics are available upon request...Please serious enquiries only. Thanks for looking!

*** I noticed that the EBAY MOBILE APP is indicating free shipping. Just to be absolutely clear, it is the buyers responsibility to arrange and pay for the transport of the vehicle. The ad does state this - Just stating it again. I will contact eBay to try and have the mistake fixed. Thanks and sorry for any confusion.
