Hi guys,

Car is now listed on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/203892086853

Brief history...the last owner purchased the car in 1978 while he was in high school in norther Illinois. Between 1978 and 1982, the car was transformed into the street machine you see in the photos. The incredible part is that the car remains untouched since 1982. The same tires are on it, the gauges still sit on the cowl behind the same L88 hood, and the Thrush mufflers sit just like they did in '82.

The car participated in the Car Craft Street Machine Nationals in '82 and was featured in Andrew Morland's 1984 book, Street Machines. The owner had the car from 1978-2021. Also included in the photos below are some time slips, and Homecoming parade photos from 1980.

Here are a few mechanical details:

4 Barrel Holley 650 Carb. Holley high rise aluminum manifold
M-21 4 Speed Manual transmission with 2.52 first gear
Hurst shifter with Reverse Lock out and front brake line lock
10 Bolt 4.11 Posi
Power Steering
Fiberglass L-88 Hood and complete fiberglass front end
All sheet metal had been replaced (door skins, quarter panels, back panel)
Traction Bars. Sub frame connectors
Battery mounted in the trunk
Electric fuel pump

The car runs and drives, but fluids should be changed, etc, if someone would like to drive the car more regularly.

If anyone has interest, please message me and we can connect. The Camaro is located in Mazomanie, WI 53560, about 30 minutes northwest of Madison. $36,900

Wow, what a time machine! Those rear tires are a real throwback.

As an aside, I won a Doug Nash 5 speed trans as a participant at the 1982 Car Craft Street Machine Nationals in Springfield IL :3gears:
