1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 review from North America
"A nice, fast,, reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got the car it was a mess, to say the least.
I pulled the motor because it had been bored 60 over and was useless.
I almost fully restored it and replaced most of the interior parts, which is expected on an older car.
Repainted and did full body work.
General comments?
I love this car and it is a real looker.
It is pretty fast, but I am changing the 3.08 limited slip rear end with a 3.73 posi differential in back.
I am also adding nitrous, I have already mildly modified the motor with full exhaust and slight cam.
I really like this car and would recommend it to anyone that has the time to fix it up right.
