Somebody was an evil toad to let such a cool & rare car rot like that! It's a shame for sure! On the bright side any part you need for these is available so as long as it's done right it can be a first class car again! I hope you show the transformation in future videos!

Had to do a quick Google search because for some reason in all my years of dabbling in Camaro history I never stumbled across RS Z/28's. Crazy. My dad has two Z/28's he bought in the early 70's. He had three for a while but sold the third one to his buddy who traded it for a C3 corvette and some cash. I ended up with the Vette by crazy coincidence almost 20 years later. Anyways, cool Camaro.

@stephenberetsel3905 2 ай бұрын

So what your sayin by stating that it has a DZ alternator is that a Dual Package ordered car in this case Z28/RS, Is a Z28 with a RS Trim/Interior/Hide Away package added. So only 302 4sp 12bolt drivetrain and handling package, Never Air, Never any other drive train options. That it wouldn't/couldn't be a RS 350 Turbo, W Air and a Z28 handling package. I was never sure what package dominated, as also with the RS/SS. In the sellers story, How do you go from being "King Of The Streets" to RnR a 307/350 2Brl Engine and sayin "GOOD Enough"? If that was the EGO message you n your car were puttin out, IT Never would have happened. It would have parked in 75 with a Windowed block before that RnR happened. I'd buy the car but he could keep the story.
