1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 automatic - rebuilt engine and transmission
1979 Chevrolet Camaro Description
This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 automatic is in terrific condition. I have been out of work since February and I need the cash, otherwise I would never sell it. I am the 2nd owner and I have had it for 6 years. The frame is in super condition, I have never modified it and I doubt the 1st owner did either. This car sits a bit lower for a slick look. It can be raised if preferred by replacing the front springs, rear leaf springs, and shocks all around. It has a rebuild engine (mentioned below) with only 1200 miles. The body has 149,005 miles as seen in the pics. The 1st owner had it painted dark red/burgundy. The original color is Gold. The car is garaged all year round, and I do not drive it in the winter or rain, ever. It has virtually no rust whatsoever. I simply disconnect the battery before each winter and afterwards it starts right up. I also change the oil (15W40) before each winter so as not to let the old oil sit for 6 months. I use Super 93 gas only. I drive it very minimally, maybe once or twice a month during the summer. It does have some cracks on the dashboard as seen in the pics, but after all it is 41 years old! It just needs a subframe bolt in the front which is a minimal expense, and does not effect driving. No AC or heat, however I have the main part of the AC unit. I never tested it. It passes Massachusetts state inspection every year with no issues. Everything works perfectly, E-brake, horn, all lights, etc. Everything!Excellent brakes and all 4 BF Goodrich tires (for the original look) with plenty of tread left as I don’t drive it much. Please note some pics were taken with the old tires.Cragar rims.
