1986 Z28 water pump
Hello, first time posting and all so please excuse any idiosyncrasies.
I'm looking to trade my current vehicle for a 1986 Z28 Camaro. I have just contacted the individual today and so I only know a few things about the car.
But I do know that the water pump needs to be replaced. He has the pump but just hasn't put in on yet, and assures me that this is the only thing wrong with the car.
I'm no master mechanic, but I do know my way around a car. Now what I'm wondering is how easy/hard is it for someone to replace a water pump on one of these. This would be my first Camaro ever, so I really don't have much of an idea. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

It's one of the easier jobs, but you have to unbolt all the accessories from the front of the engine.

ok, sounds relatively straightforward then. Is there a good resource for getting the owners manual online? (i.e free?) as I dont know at this point if he still has the original or not.
