hi from south west of france
hey guys,my name's laurent,i live in the south west of france
i own a '82 Z/28 E since 2011,which was assembled in switzerland and imported to france in the early 90's
i swapped the 305 LG4/TH200 metric combo for a '69 350 L48/TH350
one month ago,the tranny went out of third gear,which means it needs to be rebuilt
but i'm tired of doing this (second time in 5 years),so i plan to convert her to manual transmission
my problem is that i can't find any Tremec T5Z world class in my country
this is my baby,please help me get her back on the roads

yep,there was this factory in Bienne
the exterior differences with u.s versions were the square side mirrors and no spoiler

Re: hi from south west of france
All I could glean from the web was some 60s Camaros built there, with the last GM car produced there in 1975. I wonder if they prepped imported 80’s Z’s?

Re: hi from south west of france
The N suggests Norwood Ohio plant. 10195 indicates it was relativey early in the production run for that year.
C is the model year 1982. H is the 305 4 barrel engine.

Re: hi from south west of france
super cool that you have a 3rd gen in France! i was watching Swiss hill climbs on youtube and saw a black 3rd gen, so strange to see a 3rd gen camaro in with all the euro-box cars - that really looks like a riot! hope you get your trans fixed!

Re: hi from south west of france
The 1 at the beginning means the country of assembly, and being a 1 it was assembled in the USA. 1 for USA, 2 for Canada and J for Japan according to the GM parts book
