dude, 1500 American would be a ludicrous steel. Give him the $$$ now before someone else does. 4.10 & and a 3spd auto. That highway rpm must be up there

Re: buying a 1980 Camaro Z28 new project

I doubt that car will show up on any carfax due t age. IF the motor runs, then what you need to look out for is the spread of the disease known as "bondo". Take a felt covered magnet (so it wont scratch the paint) and run it over the rear 1/4 panels/wheel wells. These are the most common places to rot out and are a bondo magnet. Also check the underside rocker panels. If it doesn't have subframe connectors & you do buy the car, they should be THEE ABSOLUTE FIRST THING TO BUY. period.
