1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Coupe RWD

1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - 51k Miles - 305 V8 - T-Tops - Black/Gold - Clean CARFAX This 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is a sharp, low-mileage example of the first-year third-generation Camaro, finished in the classic two-tone black and gold Z28 color combination over a tan cloth interior. Showing approximately 51,350 original miles, this car carries the unmistakable look of early-1980s American performance: low-slung body lines, aggressive Z28 aero, removable T-top roof panels, color-matched alloy wheels, gold graphics, and that unmistakable wedge-shaped Camaro profile. Introduced for 1982, the third-generation Camaro represented a major reset for Chevrolet's pony car. It was lighter, more aerodynamic, more modern, and more refined than the second-generation cars it replaced, while still keeping the muscle-car attitude that made the Camaro name famous. The Z28 sat at the top of the performance lineup and brought the visual punch buyers wanted with unique graphics, spoilers, sportier trim, and V8 power. This example is powered by a 5.0-liter 305ci Chevrolet V8 paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. Prior to the current owner's acquisition, the car was converted from fuel injection to an Edelbrock carburetor setup with an inline electric fuel pump, giving it a more traditional small-block feel. A Flowmaster exhaust system adds a deeper tone, while the car still retains the overall period-correct character that makes an early Z28 so appealing. According to the clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, this Camaro was first registered in California, later spent time in Texas, and was acquired by its current Florida owner in the fall of 2025. It is offered with a clean Florida title. Exterior Finished in two-tone black with gold Z28 accents, this Camaro has the right 1980s look from every angle. The black paint, gold striping, factory-style aero pieces, and color-matched wheels give the car a bold and period-correct presentation. The Z28 package adds the aggressive front air dam, rear spoiler, lower body treatment, and distinctive graphics that helped define the third-gen Camaro's identity. The body lines are low, clean, and instantly recognizable, with sharp angles and aerodynamic styling that separated the 1982 Camaro from the heavier cars of the 1970s. Factory removable T-top roof panels add a major desirability factor, giving the car an open-air driving experience while maintaining the coupe profile. The color-matched alloy wheels complete the look and help this Z28 retain its original-era personality. Known exterior imperfections include scuffs and deformations on the front and rear bumpers, which are consistent with age and use. Wheels & Stance The car rides on factory-style color-matched alloy wheels that pair well with the black and gold exterior. The stance is classic third-gen Camaro - low, wide, and athletic - with the long hood, short rear deck, and Z28 aero giving it a proper performance look. The gold wheel accents work especially well with the graphics package, tying the whole exterior together without taking away from the car's factory character. Interior Inside, this Z28 features a tan cloth interior with a center console, automatic shifter, power windows, power door locks, and air conditioning. The cabin has the unmistakable feel of an early third-gen Camaro, with a driver-focused layout, angular dash design, and sporty seating position. The tan upholstery contrasts nicely against the black exterior and gives the car a clean period-correct appearance. A carpeted dashboard cover has been added, and the stereo has been upgraded with a JVC head unit. A subwoofer level control knob is mounted near the emergency brake. The factory T-tops make the interior feel more open and add to the fun factor, especially on weekend drives or local cruise-ins. Engine & Drivetrain Power comes from a 5.0-liter 305ci Chevrolet V8 backed by a 3-speed automatic transmission. This Camaro was converted prior to the current owner's acquisition from fuel injection to an Edelbrock carburetor with an inline electric fuel pump, giving the car a more traditional carbureted small-block setup. The 305 V8 provides the right sound and character for a first-year Z28, and the 3-speed automatic transmission keeps the car easy to drive and enjoy. A Flowmaster exhaust system gives it a stronger, deeper exhaust note without taking away from the overall street-friendly nature of the car.
