Chevrolet’s second-generation Camaro had a tough task, living up to the success of the first-generation. Produced between 1970 to 1981, it had a long model run, and was a totally redesigned car. With classic Camaros and muscle cars in general becoming increasingly sought after, this 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is a good chance to get in on the Camaro action. It’s mileage is unknown, but don’t let that put you off, as it’s a lovely Z28 variant with a crate motor that should offer much more power than was stock in emissions-regulated 1979.
The second-generation Camaro gained all-new styling and sat on the GM F-platform. This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 wears a bright white paintjob with blue stripes sporting the Z28 lettering in black. It’s got the iconic wrap-around rear windscreen, and wears a set of white-lettered Cooper Cobra Radial T/A tires wrapped around white Z28 center-capped wheels. A prominent ducktail spoiler adorns the rear deck. The undercarriage looks in decent condition, as does the body. All light lenses are suitably clear as well. The interior features a dark blue color theme, with two individual seats for driver and front passenger, and a bench seat behind them for up to two adult passengers, however headroom may be a little tight in the rear due to the stylish sloping design. This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is well specced, featuring an AM/FM radio with cassette player that looks to be from a later generation, four-spoke Z28 steering wheel, and clear instrumentation. The speedometer on this 1979 example goes up to 130mph; from 1980 onwards, the 85-mph speedometer was federally mandated on all automobiles sold in America. Door cards appear in good condition as well, with manual window winders and arm rests.
This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 will have come with a 350ci (5.7L) V8 from factory, but Seventies emissions regulations will have severely strangled it. In fact, around 180hp was the output, which was positively piffling for a muscle car. Thankfully, this 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 has received a new 350ci crate motor that should put out far healthier power and torque figures to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission.
