I'm OK with the speaker upgrade as long as the package tray and other interior trim isn't ruined in the process. Things like a radio install should be able to be reversed and taken out so if you want to go back to stock you can do so.

Now that one brings back memories of high school/college in the early to mid 80s, where everyone had a (well) used 2nd gen f-body. I owned a '74 Type LT, which had that same big bumper front end style. It had a black exterior and black interior with Cragar SS wheels and everyone's favorite cheap tire, the cooper cobras. :) I had done mild work on the stock 350 block, headers, cherry bombs, all the classic go faster stuff from that era. It was fun, fast and could beat the kids with their new 3rd gens and fox bodies. Although, the Buick GNs from 86/87 would give me a good run. Fun times...Thanks for showing us that one my friend!

Good deal needs work but a really good start 😊

It looks like a good solid project! If it's really a Z28 it might be worth $3,500.00 but than you need a decent paint job and some interior parts to make as nice driver! If could get for $1,500 to $2,000 it would be a good deal! Thanks for sharing!

I grew up around camaros. My brothers had a 77 LT type and a 79 Z28. We had fun cruising around the neighborhood in them. 😎

Offer um 3k !! You be taking it home 💯💯

Lol you have that right about the Texas 100 degree weather.

Whoa Nelley, F body and hopefully it will be bought by somebody. Yes, the 1977 Z-28 was a "half year" of sorts as it made a return after last being offered in the 1974 model year. Contrast that to the Trans Am and they offered it through the "lean years", so that's one reason I've always preferred the Trans Am over the Camaro. But I still do like the Camaro. There were 14,349 Z-28s made for the 1977 model year. We got the VIN, we win: 1 for Chevrolet, Q for Camaro Sport Coupe, 87 for two door coupe, L for 350 V8 with four barrel, 7 for 1977 model year, L for Van Nuys, CA assembly and the rest is the production sequence. 1977 Camaros were made at both Norwood, OH and Van Nuys, CA, but Pontiac Firebirds were only made at Norwood, OH in 1977. Van Nuys would be added in 1978 due to the high Firebird demand (partially due to the success of Smokey and the Bandit in 1977). We got the tag, we can brag: ST77 for 1977 model year, 1FQ87 for Camaro Sport Coupe, L for Van Nuys, CA assembly, 19R for Black vinyl interior trim, A51 for bucket seats, W11L and W11U for water based Antique White upper and lower exterior paint, 06C for the third week of June 1977 production, B for black secondary interior trim (steering column and instrument panel), dash (-) for no power windows, dash (-) for Sport Coupe. The Van Nuys, CA plant, part of the "Terrible Three" plants in California operated from 1947 to 1992 and there are a mix of industrial and retail/commercial businesses on the property now, including Station 81 of the Los Angeles Fire Department. After August 1987 and through the 1992 model year, all F bodies were assembled at Van Nuys. Production moved to St. Therese, Quebec Canada for the 4th generation cars from 1993 to 2002. There were 20,347 Camaros painted this color in 1977, out of 218,843 total Camaros for 1977. Over 187,000 of them were V8 equipped. You could get a 250 CID straight six with one barrel, a 305 V8 with two barrel or a 350 V8 with four barrel as your engine choices in 1977. Water based paint was used at Van Nuys due to CA air regulations at the time and it was troublesome and many cars were left with sheets of paint coming off when they were just a few years old. Some owners got them painted under warranty, but many were left holding the bag because GM blamed the paint supplier and the paint supplier blamed GM. Yes, let's see a video on the Corvair. Ralph Nader will be frowning. LOL. I do not think it's a Z28, as instead of the dash at the end of the tag where it denotes Sport Coupe, a Z-28 had an "8" there on the tag of Van Nuys built cars. The door jamb sticker showing the 15" tire size was unique to the 1977 Z-28, but the cowl tag is missing the necessary code for Z-28. Thet "8" applies to Van Nuys built cars, Norwood tags tell you more information and less in code, so on a Norwood assembled car it would say "Z28" on it. The rear end ratio was either 2.56 or 3.08 when you got a 350 and an automatic in 1977, and with the Z-28 and automatic/350 combination you got a 3.42. You could get a 3.73 with the Z28/350 combination and a four speed. However, no four wheel disc brakes on a 2nd gen Camaro, only the Pontiac F body starting in 1979. As noted, I do like the Camaro, but give me a 1977 Trans Am over this any day. The Trans Am will out handle it, eat it alive and has a lot more class to it. By 1979, there was no comparison, the Trans Am was a superior car with WS6, special editions, rear disc brakes and the like, something the Camaro did not offer. Again, I wouldn't mind a clean Camaro, but it's Poncho for the Google Man if given a choice. Whoa Nelley, F body looking a bit shoddy. Sport Coupe took someone for a loop. 1977 and not going to Heaven. 3-5-0 and doesn't have to go. Made in CA and doesn't have to go away. Needed an 8 on the tag to be a Z-28, then it might be great. If it's repainted white, it could be out of sight. Inside was black, and with all those silly mods, it ain't worth jack. $3500 bucks and without a plan to fix it, you'll be out of luck. No WS6 but doesn't have to hit the bricks. Wasn't made at Norwood, and it ain't no good. Assembled in Van Nuys, not yet time to say your goodbyes. That's not it, not time to quit. Shouldn't be flat and that will not be that. Please don't get squished because even though you can't hold a candle to a Pontiac F body of that vintage, if you become a soda can, many here along with the Google Man will be very, very, very, very pissed.

And all z/28 were made before April in 77 as far as i know from what I have read about them . they were supposed to get the hood scoop that was on the 78 but the equipment to make them failed out so they just sent them out with the decal kits to the dealers any way then halted the idea till they could gear up for the 78 model year with the hood scoop and side scoops and new nose cap.

It’s a 1977 Z28. At 2:34 it shows the Tire Pressure tag when he opens the drivers door. Only the Z28 had GR70/15 tires on 15x7” wheels, all other Camaro’s had 14” tires/wheels. The trim tag on the firewall will list ‘Z28’ if it’s a Norwood built Camaro, the trim tags on Van Nuys CA cars did not. This car has the standard Sport Coupe interior. The Custom interior (Type LT) was an option. I factory ordered a white Z28 in ‘77, and good friend ordered a black one, both were 4 speed cars, 3:73 posi.. Great cars. There were no Z28’s for 1975 and 1976. 1970 to 1974 Camaro’s had the small rear window, 1975 to 1981 had the larger rear window.

True on the tires, but on the cowl tag, that's not entirely correct. Van Nuys cars had an "8" on the trim tag to denote Z28 in 1977, and Norwood cars had "Z28" on them. This car has a dash where the "8" should be. A dash there denotes Sport Coupe, not Z28 in 1977 on a Van Nuys, CA assembled car.

Well no z28 75 and 76 rear sway bar is too small for one . 77 z28 was decals only no hood scoop or side scoops. Just rear spoiler and front chin spoiler and that area is missing so Posibly , no way to tell by the vin tag in 77.

@@Mo-Town_Auto_Icons Correct. This is a likely a sport coupe with a 350 V8, but not a Z-28. The "8" on the trim tag applies to Van Nuys, CA assembled cars. The Norwood cars had Z28 on the tag.

Only to o those who are in the click that have access to the vehicles.

NOT a Z/28....its a California car so if a Z/28 there should be a ''8'' before the PLANT BATCH CODE (153727) which would look like this ''8 153727'' The spot before this cars BATCH CODE is ''blank'' making it a SPORT COUPLE (8=Z28, S= Berlinetta, Z=RS, "blank''=SC) also the car was WHITE on WHITE (11L, 11U) w/BLACK VINYL interior (19R) In my opinion I do not think its worth $3500, maybe$2800/$3000 TOPS now Yes if it was a Z28 and the correct color, not full of bondo and had a Black vinyl interior $3500 EASY but Im not knocking the car, I like it, it screams BRACKET RACING

Correct. The "8" on the cowl tag of a Van Nuys made car indicates a Z-28 in 1977. This is likely a sport coupe with a 350 V8.

Nope. Missing the "8" on the Van Nuys cowl tag. Appears from what I can tell to be a sport coupe with a 350. The literature from the time doesn't restrict the 350 to the Z-28.

That's incorrect. The Z28 came back out for the 1977 model year, albeit somewhat mid-year.

No, it's a 1977. The VIN of 1Q87L7L123456 is 1 for Chevrolet, Q for Sport Coupe, 87 for two door coupe, L for 350 V8 with four barrel, 7 for 1977 model year (1978 would be 8), L for Van Nuys, CA assembly and then the rest is the production sequence. This is a 1977. Plus "ST77" on the cowl tag is 1977.

No thank you. Please.
