1979 Chevrolet Camaro

1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 â?" 350 V8, 4-Speed Manual, T-Top, Edelbrock-Built, Solid Driver Why This Car Is Special The 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is one of the most recognizable American performance cars of the late second-generation era, and 1979 was a landmark year for it. That model year marked the Z28's return to genuine sales dominance â?" Chevrolet moved over 84,000 Z28 units in 1979, the highest single-year total the nameplate ever achieved. The buying public had voted with its wallet, and the Z28 won in a landslide. Part of that success came from Chevrolet finally giving the Z28 a real engine again. After the smog-choked years of the mid-1970s, the 1979 Z28 returned with a 350 cubic inch V8 â?" the LM1 â?" backed by a four-barrel carburetor and rated at 175 horsepower.
