This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Sport Coupe was sold new by Spartan Chevrolet of Youngstown, Ohio. The original owner is said to have left the car to his ex-wife, who sold it to the selling dealer in late 2020. Finished in black over a black interior, the car is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 equipped with a two-barrel carburetor and mated to a three-speed automatic transmission and a Positraction limited-slip differential. Factory equipment includes air conditioning, power brakes, a rear window defogger, a rear spoiler, color-matched Rally wheels, and an AM/FM/eight-track stereo. This Camaro displays approximately 8,200 miles and is offered at no reserve with its window sticker, 1979 delivery paperwork, manufacturer’s literature, service records, and a clean Ohio title.
The body is finished in black (19) and features gold pinstriping and a rear spoiler. Additional exterior equipment includes a power antenna, sport mirrors, factory-tinted blue glass, and a rear-window defroster.
Color-matched 14″ Rally wheels with bright center caps and trim rings are wrapped in Hankook Optimo whitewall tires. A Stowaway spare tire is stored in the trunk. Power brakes were selected as optional equipment on this car.
The cabin features front sport seats upholstered in black knit cloth (19B) with plaid inserts. Additional amenities include a center console, air conditioning, and a factory AM/FM stereo with an eight-track player.
A four-spoke steering wheel fronts U14 Special Instrumentation including a 130-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer displays just over 8,200 miles, approximately 20 of which have been added by the selling dealer.
The 5.0L LG3 V8 is equipped with a two-barrel carburetor. The seller states that the heater hoses and heater core were replaced in November 2020, and additional work performed at that time included an oil change and transmission service.
Power is routed to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission and a Positraction limited-slip differential with 2.41:1 gearing. Additional photos of the underbody are provided in the gallery below.
The window sticker lists $2,506 in selected options and shows a retail price of $7,446.90. The factory shipping sheet, manufacturer’s literature, and New Vehicle Inspection paperwork dated February 27, 1979 are also included in the sale and pictured in the gallery.
