The car is stunning, to say the least the original code 74 dark red is beautiful and the white stripes set it off beautifully . Black STD interior no console- correct ITM shifter and knob- yes reverse lockout in place

Beautiful car. Any performance stats for these cars back when they came out?

Wow Thanks for sharing !!

Performance info
 

Here is what I found :

Z28 Performance Test Data
Source: Car & Driver - 9/73: Test Vehicle: 1973 Type LT Z28/RS, 4 speed, 3.42:1
Gear Ratio MPH/1000 Max. Test Speed

2 1.88 11.6 70 mph @ 6000 rpm
3 1.46 15.0 90 mph @ 6000 rpm
4 1.00 21.9 123 mpg @ 5600 rpm

Wow, I like that car. Those L82's were quick, also. Four speed and no AC, just the way I like them.

That test car info was a AC car and the LT weight was 200 Lbs heavier than a regular Z28. The 4 speed 3:73 cars were faster than 15 seconds.

Z28
 

This car is an M21 trans with a 3:73 rear-

I don't have any actual stats, but I can tell you this....I traded in a 70 Z28 on a brand new 73 Z28 and kept it for 27 years. In real world street driving there was very little noticeable difference in performance. In totally stock form, the 73 would not quite bury the 130 mph speedometer.....maybe 127 or so :eek2:

Bill -- when I bought my 70 Z28 new at Doc Stewart Chev in Clovis NM ... it ran pretty strong. In fact, I took it to Ernie Walker's Amarillo Dragway (3683' altitude) and raced in in B/PS under NHRA rules. At one time I held both ends of the record at that track -- 13.88 @ 104.22 ... factory Goodyears and thru the exhaust. I didn't think that was too bad considering the altitude, etc. Craig

Very nice car ..... love the color!

I had an original 1970 RSZ with 9600 miles on it sold it in 2006
It was an M21 - 4:10 car - it ran fantastic! But I had to buy 100 octane leaded fuel by the
5 gal Pail at the local motorcycle shop. This car is more streetable it uses 93 unleaded
Which I can get right around the corner at a gas station - there are a lot of boats in the area here and they need non-ethanol fuel- that is all I put in this car and it runs great.

Bob was that the classic copper car with deluxe interior and four speaker stereo?

I saw the car at the Camaro nationals, very nice well kept z28 Camaro

70 rsz
 

Yes it was classic copper with white stripes, black custom cloth interior and AM FM radio- only 2 speakers one front , one rear . Loved that car- it’s in a big private collection now .
