The inside is covered with anti-corrosion wax, the bottom is covered with anti-corrosion bituminous coating. The chassis and halves are sandblasted, covered with a layer of epoxy primer and painted. New shock absorbers, new wheel bearings and updated chassis components were added. A new brake master cylinder, distributor and rear cylinders have been installed, and the front brake cylinders have been reassembled. All brake pipes have been repainted (do not change because they were in good condition).

The engine was replaced, installed a 5.7 L V8 (according to the codes, the original second generation Camaro), it came out of the factory with a 4.1 L engine. The car was classified as a restored vehicle, all replaced engine assemblies are original and meet the factory requirements of the time. New matching original exhaust system.

There are photos of works and accumulated documentation. I will also give the Haynes Repair Manual and the GM Factory Assembly Manual, which were followed during the work. The car is always parked in a warm, dry garage, after the restoration it has driven 300 km.

The car was bought in 2006, brought from Germany. Bought with partial body restoration. The body was in good condition, some of the work that had been done had to be corrected and rust removed in hidden areas such as the glass or interior gaps. In the course of the car's restoration, the body paint was scrubbed, primed with an epoxy primer, ironed and re-coated with a regular primer. The bottom was covered with an anti-corrosion coating before the work began. It's all shaved off, stripped of the underlying rust, and coated with an epoxy primer and anti-corrosion coating. It is advisable to additionally preserve the bottom by spraying a preservative (this work was not done). The interior was scrubbed, rust removed, epoxy primed and preservative coated. The car was painted in 2020 and has been kept in a dry garage since and until then. Operated very minimally and only on warm sunny days. Original Z28 trim and Z28 decals installed.

The car was bought without an engine. A replacement engine, a 5.7L V8, was later purchased. Originally from the factory, the Camaro rolled out with the 4.1L L6 engine. Engine runs beautifully, no smoke, mileage unknown. The engine has had external seals, sump, water pump, spark plugs and wiring replaced. Ignition and carburetor adjusted according to factory settings. The car has an A/C system, all components are complete, but the pipeline sealing rubbers, precipitator (I will add a new precipitator) and the system need to be replaced. A new impeller thermal coupling was installed. A new exhaust system was made.

Gearbox TH350. After installing the engine, the oil radiator and engine coolant leaked into the gearbox. After this incident, the gearbox was reassembled with a new repair kit and the radiator was installed separately. Thanks to the Stage II repair kit, the shift speed can be adjusted by adjusting the vacuum valve. A HURST V-Matic II shifter with a new cable and a new set of shifter springs was added.
