I just snapped a few interior shots, I have been driving it so it needs some vacuuming.
Some interesting options on the car is it is an AC delete car and one of only 307 of the 152,000 80 camaros built that had the "new digital radio"
Aftermarket in there now, original radio snug in a box

John,
What do you mean by A/C delete? Is that shown on your build sheet as a deletion? I thought A/C wasw an option. My car is also a 4 speed car and has no A/C either.
Part of my build sheet is missing so I would like to see yours if possible.


Nice car. Interior looks famliar.

Rick, you are probably right about the AC, I was told it was AC delete but he probably meant it did not have it.
When I get the rest of the build sheet and piece it back together I will share it with you.
How about some details on your car?

John,
That would be great if I could check out your build sheet, thanks.

My car? Mine is the 305 with the 4 speed. Only engine available in 1981 with the 4 speed. In the USA that is. You could get the 350 but it only came with the automatic.

In Canada you could get 350 with the 4 speed. My car came with the computer system but was removed by the previous owner. Has the 3:42 posi rear which is pretty stout for my neck of the woods. Don't have to shift down when going up hills.

The motor was rebuilt before I got it and although it runs strong it still needs a little extra. I might put it back to original. Not sure yet.

The car is extremely solid and has 76,000 miles on it. The repaint from the previous owner is not that great and it's headed to the paint shop next month to get repaint and the stripes put on. I have the original white rally's and a set of N90 rally's like yours which will be going on after repaint.

The car is a blast to drive. These cars are on the rise and becoming very popular. I only wish my 70 Z was in the same condition as this 81.

Good luck with your car and have fun with it. Got any engine shots??

Hey John, I just did the same...Back in 1978 I bought a brand new 1978 Z/28, 4 speed in Dark Blue Green Metallic. After 2 years of searching I just found one and are waiting for delivery.

[Johnny Horsepower]

Awesome!! I have been enjoying mine alot. While its not that fast, the 4 spd still makes it fun to drive.

Great Looking car.
I too am looking for an original 1980 Z28 loaded with T-tops and 4 speed.
It is what I started to order but couldn't afford back in 1980.

Looks nice. See if you can come by Lombard on any Saturday night during car season, it's a pretty nice gathering.

[Johnny Horsepower]

I would like to hit Lombard. My problem is the cars are in Lake Geneva and i am usually with them on weekends. I will have my Hemicuda in town for a show in Park Ridge a weekend in June. I'll see if i can blast out there that weekend.
