Details

This restored Z/28 was custom ordered during the peak of the muscle car era and is one of the 20,302 manufactured. Of all 1969 Camaros produced, fewer than 8.5 percent were finished in this Hugger Orange color. Fast-forward to 2020 and this Z/28 is still powered by its original, matching-numbers 302ci DZ solid-lifter V8 engine. General Motors and Chevrolet conservatively rated these engines at 290hp; however, the performance lends to a higher output number rumored of the 375hp range. The Camaro has been repainted in its original color of Hugger Orange, correct to factory Trim Tag, and the ivory/black vinyl interior is in great condition. The Z/28 is nicely equipped with an M21 4-speed manual transmission, Hurst shifter, 12-bolt posi-traction rear end with 3.73 gear ratio, power front disc brakes and dual exhaust. The Trim Tag shows this car to have been built in the Norwood assembly plant during the second week of January 1969, and indicates the car as being an X33-code Camaro containing the Z/28 Special Performance Equipment. Equipment includes factory smog system, aluminum intake manifold, finned aluminum valve covers, chrome air cleaner, factory exhaust manifolds, Rally stripes, chrome bumpers, rear bumperettes, front and rear spoilers, chrome side mirror, 15-inch Rally wheels, Goodyear Polyglas tires, tinted glass, AM/FM cassette radio, Strato bucket seats, seat belts and full-size spare tire. This Z/28 is in great condition, both cosmetically and mechanically, and is ready to be shown or cruised. Documentation includes a copy of the original sales invoice and the original owner's manual. A Camaro Hi-Performance Certificate of Authenticity and Appraisal Report by Jerry MacNeish are included as well.
