Re: 1992 Camaro B4C , How many are still around & How much is it worth?

There are a lot still around. But not many left in your condition. 11,000 miles is quite uncommon with a B4C as well as the lack of power options. This is a very good car. Most of them were put into service until they had around 100k miles. Then sold off at police auction. The B4Cs havent received the appreciation they deserve quite yet. So their prices aren't on par with IROC-Zs or the other 1LE IROCs and Z28s. But I think this car is worth $20-25k.

I have a quasar blue 92 B4C as well. Mine was an Indiana State Police car and racked up over 100k miles in service.

Thanks for the reply, I didn’t know Indiana state patrol used the b4c’s , Do you happen to have a list of all states that used Camaro b4c’s ?

Re: 1992 Camaro B4C , How many are still around & How much is it worth?

Texas had about 40 91-92 5 speed 305s. Only option they had was rear hatch release.

El Paso, Tx had 2 92 305 5 speeds. One is scrapped and gone to Camaro heaven. The other is unknown.

I know California, Utah, New York had B4C's. Also a few counties and cities had them also.

That's an awesome car! ...and in awesome shape! I'd be very proud to own and drive. I've always loved the quirky options you could get here and there. Can't be TOO many left, and certainly not in the condition.

IIRC, WV State Police had a couple of them back in the day.

Nice-looking car, OP.

Re: 1992 Camaro B4C , How many are still around & How much is it worth?

Btw, how is it known that 49 B4C's were sold to civilians? I thought it was about 20 or less.

That is 100% speculation. I personally know of more than 5 that were sold here in Indiana that were sold to civilians.

I got one here in Nebraska came from an auction in Denver around 95. Is there anyway to recover an rpo sticker with the vin? 1le identification? Is it possible to know what number of 589 is yours?

Post the VIN or send me a PM and I can retrieve the RPOs for your 1992.

Re: 1992 Camaro B4C , How many are still around & How much is it worth?

I've posted previously, but mine is one of five that were on the lot of what was then McDorman Chevrolet in Canal Winchester Ohio. Two red, two black, 1 5sp and one auto each, and one white with red interior. I'm the original (and only) owner of the red auto. There may have been others there at another time, but those were the ones on the lot the day I saw and bought mine. I knew it was special when I bought it, so it's all original except for the tires and hood and hatch struts. 57k miles so far.

I know of 3 '92 B4C's that were sold to civilians in GA. 2 were black, 1 was red. These were sold at Day's Chevrolet in Acworth, GA, May of '92. I have pics of one of the black cars and a pic of the red car plus copies of the build sheets. I was working there at the time.

I have one of those Texas 5 speed cars. It even still has the TxDPS asset tag in the door jamb! The paint has seen better times, and I'm seriously considering getting it repainted in the original colors. Still have some other cosmetic work to do to it before that, though (like a new headliner). Truly awesome car to drive.

Here is a photo of my Parts ID code. I was worried it was stripped from car, however, I located it in the rear locked hatch lid in the trunk.

Yes, a real B4C ILE. I have was also provided the build sheet they found when it was painted/restored and I also have the Colorado State Trooper poster when it was in service as well as a photo taken parked on road with full emblems etc. It was retired with ~67K miles, and only has ~82500k miles.

92RSQuasar, you and I and a friend of yours used to have 92 B4Cs in the same local club when they were new. I had the white 5-speed and your friend had the Purple Haze one. We had three privately purchased ones just in that club. I still have my white one with only 4K miles. Glad to know you still have yours. I got to know multiple folks that bought them new even though you weren't supposed to be able to. What I learned is it was not uncommon for dealers to order extras with their fleet orders so they could sell them.

Hi, Where was your friend from with the Purple Haze B4C? Was it ever used in service?
