83' Z28 5-speed - Brooklyn, NY

This has been a difficult decision.
Ultimately I don't have the time or resources to give this car the attention she deserves. Hopefully she'll go to a good home.
Please make me an offer, please be reasonable.
Starting price is lowered to $1000 OBO

About the car:
1983 Z-28 Camaro, 5-speed T-5 transmission, 305 V8
~110,00 miles
3 owners including myself
clean and clear title in hand
well maintained in terms of regular maintenance
could be your daily driver

recent large purchases (have receipts):
new struts and shocks, less than a year old
new cooper radial GT tires, less than a year old, less than 10K miles since install
rebuilt brake lines
swap from mechanical clutch linkage to hydraulic (search thesofaking on these forums for what that is, has made a huge difference)

things I know need fixing:
some rust around the roof, could be fine if someone has the chance to clean it up
driver's seat needs a new cog or something as its starting to fall down a bit
driver's side mirror got knocked off kilter, haven't had a chance to fix it
something is up with the T-5 (was replaced in 2008) I think its the synchros, makes shifting to 5th difficult sometimes

general:
the engine is in great shape, she always starts right up
there are various body and trim pieces I've accumulated over the years, a bunch of repair etc kits and such, all that will be included with the car as well as the original dash pad (its cracked)
the car needs work as most do, looking for someone who's got more time than me
buyer must be willing to pick up in brooklyn, ny; its very near public transit if that matters
I'm not trying to hide anything that's wrong with the car; I think we all know there's no such thing as a perfect condition 30+ year old vehicle
if you have questions etc please ask; just looking for her to go to a good home, I think shes in solid enough shape that she deserves not to be parted out

Is the rust on the roof just passenger side or both?

@greyghost both sides are about the same. I can take another pic tomorrow morning if you want to see close up. The spots aren’t huge but will grow if not taken care of soon. Let me know any other questions. Thanks!

Re: 83' Z28 5-speed $2500 OBO - Brooklyn, NY

I'm sorry man but that roof rust is bad news. That's not easy to fix properly. I'm not trying to be a jerk and it's super cool of you to be honest about it, but that puts this car in kind of a bad spot.

Re: 83' Z28 5-speed $2500 OBO - Brooklyn, NY

thanks MeanZ. To be honest the price is nominal at this point. I'm just looking for her to go to someone who has time.
Idk where that image came from, google I guess, I'll take another and post shortly, I think it looks worse than it is in that picture.

Price lowered to $1200. Please someone take this car.

Re: 83' Z28 5-speed - Brooklyn, NY

video 1
video 2

For some reason it won't let me upload any videos.
See the videos, yes the car runs. Keep getting questions about that.
It was a daily driver for me from 2014 to 2017.
The reason it no longer is, I live in the city and have no where and no reason to drive her daily.

Another shot of the rust people seem very concerned about.

Price drop to $1,000.

Re: 83' Z28 5-speed - Brooklyn, NY

If I was closer I would have gotten it already as well, but New York is not on my short list of places to go pull a car trailer around....

Hey there. New to the forum. Is the car still available ? Is it drivable to the Canadian border ?
