1978 Chevrolet Camaro LT

Vehicle Description 1978 Chevrolet Camaro $29,995 "$29,995 Cruisin Classics is proud to present to you this stunning low-mileage 1978 Chevrolet Camaro LT. This Camaro was born with both the luxury touring package and an upgrade to the 350ci V-8, and now it has been transformed into a Z28 tribute as well! The car rolled off the line with Carmine Metallic paint (77L), and it has been treated to a very high-quality respray in that same color. The paint is perfectly complemented by a new two-tone orange Z28 decal kit that accents the faux hood scoop and wraps around the lower body. At the front of the car is the new-for-'78 body-color urethane bumper cover/front clip. The new angular front clip includes black bucketed headlights and turn signal lights and a two-tier black eggcrate grille with orange ""Z28"" badging. Moving around to the side, you can't help but notice the sporty louvered fender vents (found only on Z28s) and ""CAMARO Z28"" fender decals. Those vents aren't the only thing that catches the eye, though – there are dual body-color side mirrors, color-keyed door handle inserts, bright side window trim, hideaway wipers, and that cool fastback roofline that leads down to the iconic 3-piece rear spoiler. The side view is further complemented by a set of 15"" Z28 aluminum turbine wheels, all wrapped in Mickey Thompson white-letter Sportsman S/T tires. Around back, you'll find another molded urethane bumper cover, a set of clear tri-color taillights, a Z28 badged fuel fill door, and orange stripe decals on the rear of the spoiler. Dual exhaust tips under the bumper emit an appropriate V-8 growl. Take a peek underneath to see a very clean undercarriage and newer pipes & mufflers. Lift the hood to find a very clean stock engine bay that's home to the original numbers-matching 350ci LM1 V-8. We have a photocopy of the original window sticker, and it shows that this engine upgrade cost $300 when new. The block, intake, and valve covers are all painted blue, and topping things off are a 4-barrel carburetor and a black GM single-snorkel air cleaner. A quick look around reveals that this Camaro is equipped with power steering and power front disc brakes (drums on rear). The healthy V-8 is mated to a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the rear wheels via a 10-bolt rear axle. Exhaust travels through cast manifolds and the aforementioned pipes and mufflers before emptying in the rear. The car runs and drives exceptionally well out on the road, and the 350 engine's added pep makes it all that much more fun. Swing open the long driver's door to find an impeccably well-presented Carmine red interior. The trim tag on this Camaro tells us that it was born with a white vinyl interior (11N), but it now boasts deluxe cloth Carmine seats and door panels. The door panels, the front seat covers, and the red vinyl headliner were replaced in 2023 (per receipts), and they still look like new. The door panels are a mix of red carpet, red vinyl, and fabric with armrests, manual windows, and a driver's mirror toggle. A bright Fisher sill plate leads the way inside to plush red pile carpet that's kept nice with rubber GM floor mats. The front buckets and rear bench back seats are in flawless condition and the patterned fabric inserts really make the interior pop. A factory center console splits the front buckets and offers an armrest/storage box, a shifter for the automatic transmission, and a 6-band EQ that's part of the sound system. Ahead of the driver is a 4-spoke ""Type LT"" steering wheel with a working horn on a tilt column. The turn signal lever does double duty by offering factory cruise control (untested). Beyond the wheel is a crack-free red dash with a textured gauge and instrument bezel that wraps around the driver. Within the curved panel are controls for the lights and working 2-speed wipers, a 130mph speedometer and 7K tach, a shift indicator, a clock (inop,), and working gauges for fuel, volts, and temperature. The odometer reads only 31,380 miles and the title confirms the mileage to be actual! Under the bezel to the drivers left are working heat and fan controls and to the right is a Concord AM/FM/Cassette stereo. There are Concord speakers in the kick panels and 6X9 speakers under factory covers back on the rear package tray. Around back in the vinyl-walled trunk are two Linear power amps, one Denon MOSFET power amp, and a ""Punch Classic"" subwoofer on each sidewall. Needless to say, this is one rockin' stereo!

It's got beautiful paint, cool Z28 looks, a 350 V-8 with a 4-barrel carburetor, power steering, power front disc brakes, a gorgeous like-new interior, and a great sounding stereo – all it needs is you in the drivers seat with a set of keys!
