Auto Restoration shop offering this 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 for sale on a no reserve bid to buy auction. I’m the shop owner, I bought this car from my technician whom owned this car for 17 years. I purchased this car to help with a trade on an original 72 Chevy truck that was for sale locally I really wanted, but it sold right before we made a deal, so here this car is for sale. This car lived it’s life in the high desert of eastern Washington. This car is 99% rust free, it’s a real Z28, I’m selling it as a running/driving project. Some conflicting info if this car is also a RS Z28 and not just a Z28, do your research, I’m no 79 Camaro expert. VIN# 1Q87L9L599157. Copy and paste or click on the photobucket link for 96 pictures of this car. http://s953.photobucket.com/albums/ae11/fj40man79/1979%20Camaro/ MECHANICAL The original motor is long gone. My tech built a nice 4 bolt main 350 for it a couple years ago, the motor has very few miles on it. He started with the most desired high nikel 0010 block, put a good set of heads, upgraded compression and cam to make a nice 300 horse pump fuel motor. A huge improvement over the stock 185 horse motor. Edelbrock intake and electric choke 4 barrel carburetor. This is an original air conditioned car, but the compressor and associated lines are gone. Power steering, TH-350 automatic transmission. A bunch of work has been done to the car is the past couple years. The tires have 200 miles on them. I’ve driven the car a few miles, It needs things here and there, but is a good solid start. BODY Overall, the body is in excellent condition. These cars are prone to serious rust, this one was stored inside and in a dry climate. The pictures on the link tell the story, there are only a couple spots of rot above the rear tail pipes, and a little scale in a spot in the trunk. No serious rot repair on this one. The driver side front fender is not original, I have the original with the Z28 louvers included with the sale. I also have an extra front fascia included in the sale. The front windshield is cracked. I’ve pointed out the negatives I could find, the pictures on the link will point it all out in detail. This car is a good start for a restoration. I would call this an easy restoration if you have some skills and time. These 2nd generation Camaros are gaining in popularity and price, as the 67-69 are getting out of budget for many people. Camaro magazine called the 78-79 Z28 the next car collectors should snatch up. NADA values this car from 6-20k depending on condition, I’m letting it go to the highest bidder.
