SOLD
View this vehicle on our website for a complete description, price, and many photos.
This gorgeous second generation 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Custom AKA: “The Root Beer Float” is simply stunning. It has been completely restored to show quality standards throughout and is loaded with custom features.
This car underwent a complete nut and bolt restoration that was completed in 2019. It only has test miles since completion. The body was stripped to bare metal and was professionally refinished. The car retains all the original sheet metal which is not common with second generation Camaros. The car sports a flat hood and the tall 3-piece rear spoiler. The body is very straight with great gap lines throughout. The exterior was painted in 2018 Toyota “Smoked Mesquite Brown” with White stripes which look absolutely gorgeous. The car has an incredible stance on new Billet Specialties “Legend Series” polished wheels that are 18x8 on the front and 18x9 on the rear. The wheels are wrapped with brand new Sumitomo HTRZ2 tires that are 225/40/R18 on the front and 245/40R18 on the rear.. *Please note the car was pictured with different tires that were replaced because the front tires were too wide and caused slight rubbing when turning.
The entire interior was completed restored during the restoration. It was restored in the original color of Saddle but it was upgraded from vinyl to comfort weave. This was a Poi NOS comfort weave interior kit. Some interior custom features include a Classic Dash bezel, Autometer Phantom White Face gauges, Billet Specialties “Formula Bronze” steering wheel, Hurst shifter with black shift knob, custom sound system and black carpeted mats with Z28 logo. The front and rear seat belts are original and in nice condition. Everything is in working order such as the dome light, dash lights, lights, turn signals, gauges, heat and sound system. The trunk compartment has been painted with the correct style trunk paint. *Please note there is no spare tire or jack tools.
The engine compartment is nicely detailed throughout with many custom features. The backside of the hood was finished in satin black as was the firewall, inner fenders, fender braces and radiator support. It’s equipped with new “Ring Brothers” aluminum hood hinges which match the wheels and look amazing. The car is powered by a 383 Stroker V8 that has an estimated 400+ HP. This engine runs excellent and pulls hard. This GM 4-bolt main block was completely rebuilt with many high performance parts throughout. Some of these parts include an Edelbrock #7102 camshaft, Crower pistons and connecting rods, Trick Flow Twisted Wedge Aluminum Heads, Pro Push Rods, Summit Racing G6900 Roller Rockers, Cleveite 77 bearings, Fluidampner, Milodon oil pump, Steff aluminum oil pan and ARP fasteners. The engine is outfitted with a new Holley HP 650 Double pumper carburetor, Holley fuel pump, Magna fuel pressure gauge, HEI distributor, Taylor wires w/ wire looms, Chevrolet black cast valve covers and Chevrolet black cast air cleaner. It’s equipped with a modern front runner pulley system. It has a new Interstate battery that was painted black. The engine is cooled by a new Derale aluminum with dual electric fans producing 3,700 CFM. It also has a Mishimoto black overfill canister. The engine breathes through Hooker Super Competition ceramic headers and a stainless Pypes Violator stainless exhaust system. This engine and exhaust system combination sounds awesome! The engine is coupled to a Muncie 21 close ratio 4-speed transmission. This transmission was rebuilt and shifts through the gears nicely with the Hurst shifter. It’s equipped with a new clutch and Hays flywheel. The power is transferred to the factory 10-bolt POSI rear end. It has a new carrier, locker, axles and 4:11 gears. This driveline was built to pound the streets!
The undercarriage is also nicely detailed throughout with many custom features. The underside of body and sub frame was painted stain black. It’s equipped with Competition Engineering sub frame connectors for extra strength. It’s also equipped with Competition body mounts, motor mounts, transmission mounts, front sway bar and rear sway bar. It has KYB Gas-A-Just shocks. The all new front suspension and power steering components are by Moog.
This car is total eye candy with its striking color combination. This car separates itself from every other second generation Camaro. It was built to cruise but pound the pavement if desired. This is the one!

It's amazing, I think those cars look even better today then they did at the time. Really a great body style.

Man I have a 1978 LT Rally Sport with a 5.7L V8 and it looks nothing close to the beauty of this thing

[@donaldadamsjr9356]

Had a 73 LT Z-28 in root beer brown. 22years old when I bought it , had it for 22 years. Garaged mostly, very fun. Did only a few upgrades, wanted to keep her as original as I could. Go-cart with skin, miss that girlie!

That’s not a rally sport they should never cut the bumper off that’s very dangerous because all you Gotta do it that’s up in your bumpers front gone just tap anything the rubber on the ones on the rally sport tech to some but cut the bumper off as bad idea it doesn’t look original

[@1982MCI]

It is the split front bumpers, they didn’t cut it off, it came from the factory as a split bumper on certain models. Many of the split bumpers had to be ordered otherwise you’d get the one piece bumper. The splint front end looks so much better also

[@rickplot9358]

Who cares if it's original, looks awesome !!!
