Re: Camaro Lightweight???
 

Maybe it only has 15lbs of HELIUM in the tires.Wouldn't that make it even more of a lightweight? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Re: Camaro Lightweight???
 

This is strange. I had to go back and reread the auction because I got a call last night from a guy I grew up with and he told me he had just bought a 1978 Camaro Z/28 with M-21, no hood insulation, radio delete and a few other strange options or lack of and he wanted to know if I knew anything about them. Told him I thought it was just another 78 Z/28.

Bought it from the original owner with $15k miles on it and he also said it didn't have undercoating.

Think I should tell him he has a lightweight?

Only reason I posted this is because he told me the same story. No it's not the same car, his is green with puke green interior. Looking at it tomorrow because I am just curious.

Weird,

Re: Camaro Lightweight???
 

Your friend may have my old car which ive been looking for, mine came with an LM1 and not an L82 as this lightweight car was listed with...Does your friends car have a tarantula manifold with Mr. Gasket open top air cleaner also look for a WHITE hurst t-handle shifter knob..not many of those around..

Doesn't say why it's a factory lightweight - is it because there is no radio?

He may be referring to the lack of power. What do those things pack? 175hp? Instead of a 19 sec 1/4 mi, it'll do a 18.9.....

Re: Camaro Lightweight???
 

Not true, I got mine to low 14's with a couple bolt on parts..
