Here's my Z28 winter project. Original BC car with 130k kms, 3 owner, build sheet, warranty card, owner's manual, window sticker, 4 spd 350, t-roof. Very rare car, the only 1981 Camaro with a 4 spd and 350 were Canadian models. White with blue decals, blue cloth interior.

Thanks guys, it took me a while to find a 4 spd, white on blue, t-top and even though it wasn't perfect when I bought it, I got a pretty good deal so I was prepared to spend some dough on it to get it perfect, it should be done by spring, just in time for the first car show at Deerfoot Mall.

Hahaha, I haven't had the opportunity to mat the go pedal yet and get the cowl induction working but when it's done I will. The good thing about second gen Camaros is that the later models are realatively inexpensive now but are appreciating greatly. Early models '70-'75 with big engines and before smog controls are fetching good money and I think the later ones will follow suit.

A lot of us older guys remember the 2nd gens, (Camaros and Firebirds) and now that we have some disposable income we can relive our youth.
