The second generation of the Chevy Camaro was in its 9^th year in 1978. Styling got a big refresh as the cow-catcher bumpers fore and art were now covered with body-colored urethane, which looked sleeker. Sales were solid that year and the Camaro easily beat out the Ford Mustang II for first place in “pony car” output. This ’78 Camaro Z28 is a one-owner car that was in storage for 30 years and has recently been cleaned up and made roadworthy. It looks good from what we can tell, but the seller only goes as far as saying it’s been “made presentable.”

Out of 272,000 Camaros built in 1978, 55,000 were Z28s. So that means about one in five that were sold looked like the seller’s car except for the paint color. The autos were far less powerful than their predecessors of a decade earlier and if this one has a 350 cubic inch V8 (the seller doesn’t say), it only produced 170 hp SAE net. This one has an automatic transmission which we assume is a TH-350.

We’re told this car was off the road from 1992 to 2022 (last registered in the former year), but we don’t know why. It’s said to be a one-owner machine, but is the seller that owner or was the automobile secured for resale and the title not changed? Some work has been done on the vehicle such as new brakes and tires, and a new battery, and the Chevy was treated to a tune-up. So, it’s in good running order, we suppose, but will any other work be needed?

The odometer reads 75,000 miles, so the Camaro saw a reasonable amount of action in the first 14 years on the road. Located now in Northvale, New Jersey, this revived classic is available here on eBay where the current bid is $4,050 and the reserve is unmet. How far would you go in the auction to bring this Z28 home?
