Prelude:

 

Some time ago I was informed by a good friend about a "spectacular two owner original Z/28" that the proprietor was considering parting ways with.

 

Being picky and unfortunately skeptical resulted in me venturing out to verify what was relayed.

 

 

However, once that time came the vintage Bow Tie spoken of far exceeded my expectations!P1011988

If you have been searching for a gorgeous factory original Z/28 (that's accident free & essentially unmolested) "this gem might do the trick"!

Matching # block = 3970010 (1980 Camaro Z-28 / 350 engine)!

 

To make matters even better this Z left the factory with a four speed manual transmission!

 

The original owner explained in detail just how much his wife struggled with operating it.

 

Unbelievably in the spring of 1984 he paid Butler Chevrolet to unfasten the manual shift.

 

Afterwards Team Cedar Point was called upon to supplant the newly rebuilt 350 automatic turbo transmission (current component)! 

 

IE:

There is however, an amazing upside for the new potential owner.

 

Per request at the time'

The factory clutch pedal was left in place (easy to transfer if so desired)! 

 

Nonetheless this Z/28 has all the boxes checked! P1011996

 

However, they’re many other reasons to consider adding it to your collection.

 

Hemmings, Bureau of Certified Auto Appraisers & other authorities have listed the (1980-1981) "authentic Chevrolet Camaro Z/28" as one of the fastest appreciating Stallworth on the collect car circuit!

 

ORIGINAL "CERTIFIED" (black & red) combo cars are bringing an average higher premium of 29-37 percent!

 

AGAIN IT IS IMPORTANT TO VERIFY THE COWL TAG (THEREFORE CONFIRMING) ATRUE BLACK/RED Z CAR!P1011970

 

Of all the colors offered (on original Z/28) it was the only combination GM chose to be featured in their factory sales brochure & tv commercial!P1012061

 

This one is also an original Mid-West machine that has stood the test of time.

 

There's even evidence of it receiving the Ziebart protection package in the early 80's.

 

The overall quality & condition is certainly noteworthy!P1011989   

 

After being manufactured at the Norwood assembly plant it was delivered to Johnny Londoff Chevrolet in St. Louis Mo.

 

Mr. Fitzpatrick & his wife enjoyed the car for 17 years.

 

His career actually called for him to relocate in the Northeast.

 

A relatively short notice required local sheltering for the Camaro.

 

Consequentially the perfect resting place happened to be in his sister’s garage.

 

Here (the Z/28) would sit for over a decade without being utilized.

 

Up to speed:

 

Sometime in 2017 his son took it out of hibernation and a mild restoration began.

 

Order of the day "first it was off to the paint shop".

 

Here the original lacquer material would be stripped away from its outer shell.

 

Thankfully being accident free & protected minimal body treatment was needed.

 

After being properly prepped and scrutinized for quality "several fresh coats of *GBA* Raven Black Corvette Z06 (code WA672) was laid down! P1011986

 

The base coat clear paint addition is simply STUNNING (front to rear)!!!! There's a few minor imperfections in the paint. P1011969

 

Compliments are always in order & "cell phone cameras flash constantly "once the car cover is lifted!!!

 

A GLOSS MIRROR LIKE REFLECTION IS PRESENTED AT ANY GIVEN TIME OF DAY!

 

AT DUSK IT ALMOST LOOKS WET!P1011997

 

 

 

Delightful in sun or shade! P1011998 

 

Each panel falls in accordance with GM factory tooling expectations.

 

The sleek contour of the body is further accentuated by the contrast provided via (STN-38) Chevrolet stripe package! P1011986

 

Crimson red bands blaze a trail around the total circumference of the vehicle.

 

Up top there's also a factory banner that encompasses the hood induction scoop.
