Re: 2 1982 CAMARO Z28'S 43 MILES AND 4,470 MILES

Wow, those are awesome! But they both look terrible under the hood. My old 22k mile 82 Z28 looked like brand new under the hood, and I would have expected the 43 mile car to look even better.


Compare those engine bays to this......and I didn't detail a thing. I guess how they are stored makes all the difference in the world

Yeah, I wonder why the engine bays are in the condition that they're in with only that many miles

Never cared for mismatched seats. Really ramps up the OCD!

Wow, both very nice cars and almost twins. Curious what the story behind them is.

I like the 1 year only contour seats.

The 43 mile example is really bad considering the mileage. The 4,400 mile one looks like it was driven down a dirt road and never washed, but appears that it might clean up okay. Would be interesting to know the storage conditions on both.
