Vehicle Description
**** THIS VEHICLE WILL BE OFFERED FOR AUCTION AT THE GREENSBORO
CLASSIC CAR AUCTION - NOVEMBER 5 - NOVEMBER 7, 2020 **** What makes
the Z/28 very special is the limited-production, high-performance
drive train that is unique to only this car. Everything from the
302-cubic inch high compression engine down to the deep pulley
alternator (made to properly operate at 7000+ RPMs) was designed to
make the Z/28 one of the most potent small block production muscle
cars ever made. This numbers matching Camaro is one of the very few
7,199 total Z/28s' produced in 1968 and was built at the Los
Angeles (Van Nuys), CA plant, assembled in late May. Fast forward
to 2017 and the Z/28 is still powered by its original, numbers
matching 302ci solid-lifter V8. The Camaro is unrestored with
44,017 original miles and possesses an actual-mileage title.
Certified by renowned Camaro expert, Jerry MacNeish, this Z/28 has
been authenticated that the engine and rear axle are the original
units installed at the Chevrolet factory. The M-20 Muncie manual
transmission is a replacement component. Mr. MacNeish stated in his
report that Original Z/28s' are very hard to find in today's Camaro
collector world, further enhancing this example's significance.
General Motors and Chevrolet conservatively rated these engines at
290 horsepower, however the performance lends to a higher output
number. It has one older exterior only lacquer repaint in the
correct super-rare color of Corvette Bronze. The door jambs and
underside of the trunk lid are factory paint. The Z/28 is nicely
equipped with Hurst shifter, 12-bolt posi-traction rear end with
4:10 gears, power steering, power brakes, center console with
gauges and much more. This is a highly-optioned Z/28 that is
unrestored with low mileage and its original engine. Don't miss
your opportunity to own one of the most sought after muscle cars of
the 1960s'! Stock Number: HC2215 VIN: 124378L341197 Miles: 43,549
