This 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 convertible was acquired by the current owner in 2013 and now has 30k miles. Modifications following the owner’s acquisition involved adding an Ultra Z-style hood and a body kit as well as revised suspension components, while the 5.7-liter LT1 was fitted with a Lunati camshaft, chromoly push rods, AFR cylinder heads, ARP hardware, and a dyno tune. Shifting is through a six-speed manual transmission, and the car also has a Drive Train Specialists rear end with a 4.10 gear set as well as a Ram clutch kit, an aluminum driveshaft, and 18″ Forgestar wheels. The black finish is accented by a matte black stripe, and additional equipment includes a black soft top, black leather and microsuede upholstery, a MOMO steering wheel, and a stereo system with a touchscreen head unit and JL Audio components housed in a fiberglass trunk enclosure. This Z28 convertible is now offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with modification records, a car cover, and a clean Michigan title in the owner’s name.
