1981 is a good year to!

I know all of you are enjoying your new camaro's and I love them to. But, you have to love the older ones just as much. This is my 1981 Camaro.

bin driving my 83 Firebird a bit this summer. It feels lighter and more nimble than the 5th gen. The 5th gen feels a lot more solid though.

81 was a good year for other things too.
- The first DeLorean rolls off the assembly line
- Sandra Day O'Connor becomes the first woman on the Supreme Court
- The first space shuttle is launched into space

But ...

- They build one heck of a good looking Camaro.

Hey ... nice car!

I've owned 2 1981 Z/28s & my wife bought a 1979 Camaro new. The 81 Camaro was the 1st year of the electronic carb which can be a pain to deal with.

Your car looks awesome!
