MOT: January 2024

  • Desirable IROC version of the second-generation Camaro Z28
  • A resident of the United Kingdom since 1991
  • 305 ci (5 litre) V8 engine, four-speed automatic transmission
  • Four keepers in the United Kingdom and c.52,000 recorded miles

Styled by Gerry Palmer, the third-generation Chevrolet Camaro began production on October the 12th 1981. Named Motor Trend magazine’s ‘Car of the Year’ for 1982, the 2+2-seater was considerably lighter, had better handling, and was more aerodynamic than its predecessor. Available in four-cylinder, V6, and V8 guises, the latter proved the most popular. The Camaro's design owed nothing to previous generations. The large and complex rear window reflected the advances of the time in car glass design and the front windscreen was reclined at 62 degrees, breaking an internal GM rule limiting such angles to sixty degrees maximum.

Manufactured in 1987, the Z28 IROC offered spent a short time in America before being imported into the United Kingdom in 1991. A desirable IROC-Z variant, these examples featured an upgraded suspension, lowered ride height, specially valved Delco-Bilstein shocks, larger diameter sway bars, a steering/frame brace known as the "wonder bar", and a special decal package. Fitted with the 305 ci (5 litre) V8 engine allied to the four-speed automatic transmission, ‘D289 LMG’ is finished in Purple with a Grey velour interior upholstery. Showing a recorded mileage of just c.52,000 miles, the Camaro has had three former keepers in the United Kingdom. Rated as having a ‘very good’ gearbox, ‘good’ engine and electrics, and ‘average’ bodywork, paintwork, and interior trim by the vendor, the Camaro is offered with an MOT certificate with no advisories until January next year.
