I bought my '79 Z-28 new on October 23, 1979. It had 1980 Camaros on each side. Manufactured in August '79, it was one of the last '79s made. It's red with a black sport cloth interior. I wanted a 4 speed at the time, but it's an auto. I fell in love with it when I first saw it. The Z is in my garage about 10' from me as I type this now. Celebrated 34 years of ownership a couple of weeks ago. After driving my '13 most of the time, the '79 seems very low to the ground. The trunk is way lower. I have a photo in my garage if you want to see it. I modded the engine a bit back in the '80s for autocross, but it's mostly still stock. I installed WS-6 swaybars out of wrecked Trans Ams (they were straight!)

I might sell her some day, but this day she's still mine!
