Overview of 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Retromod For Sale by Owner

The Chevrolet Camaro has been around for quite a while, 58 years for those who are counting. Each generation is special in its way, take for instance the first-generation cars ruled the muscle car scene back in the day, and fast forward to the 90s with the fourth generation, the Camaro marque still kept up in terms of power and performance with all the Japanese and Euro Imports. What if there was a way you could merge the best of both these worlds? The 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Retromod we have today perhaps answers that question very well. With a reported 110,000 miles on the clock and sporting the iconic styling of the first generation with the performance of the fourth generation, this is one neat toy with the owner reporting to have $80,000 invested in the build.

Exterior and Interior

At first glance, it's easy to think the car is a first-generation Camaro, the build is done to perfection with the seller reporting that the front and rear of the car are finished off in original sheet metal from a 1969 Camaro as well. This 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Retromod sports an orange exterior with its black convertible top reported to be functioning. The car sits low down and sports a set of black and silver wheels which are wrapped with Mickey Thompson tires The interior of this 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Retromod is finished off in black with orange accents present on the dashboard and throughout the car’s interior. The front Recaro bucket seats are also black and orange in color. Looking up front and the first thing you would notice is the Trans Controller present on the dash and then, attached to the Foose steering wheel, the car even has paddle shifters for added drive feel.

Engine

With an extensive build sheet when it comes to the cosmetic department it's only natural that the car gained weight, this however is overshadowed by the massive bump up in power. Powering this 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Retromod is a 350 ci (5.7L) V8 engine that's reported to push out an impressive 650hp. The seller notes that to unleash all this car’s ponies you would have to pump only 110 octane. Power is sent to the car’s rear wheels through an automatic transmission. To hold all this power down the car sports a Hotchkis sports suspension and Wilwood brakes to ensure that it all comes to a halt in time.
