Second-generation Chevrolet Camaros potentially offer a lot of metal for the dollar, particularly if you’re after a solid cruiser that stands out from the crowd.
In a feature on this series, our writer reveals: “Sales during the 1970s recovered quickly and for 1978 247,000 Camaros sold, with 233,000 in 1979. Some from this era came to Australia as personal and dealer imports; helping Holden keep faith with its Monaro loving fanbase once the local model disappeared.
Most would have been 305 V8s with three-speed automatic transmission.”
The 5.0lt V8 in this example has undergone some moderate performance modifications and runs through a three-speed automatic transmission.
It’s for sale through the Healey Factory in Melbourne, priced at $55,000.
