Mystery Car???

We have a white 1982 camaro!
and of course we have a problem...
This camaro has wooden dash, steering wheel, and CONSOLE. It has about 6 blue pin striped that are rather thin going down it. It has a blue stripe on the sides also. it has the symbol ZF on it and I cannot find anything about it. I will try to post pictures later. does anyone know about a 1982 camaro ZF??
We have heard that only were 760 made.

We have heard it is a rumor that this car may exist. when I post pictures that will change.

Re: Mystery Car???

Not being a jerk but it's a CONSOLE, not a counsel. My only reason for bringing that up is my dad calls it a counsel also and it's become a pet peeve.

The car is just an appearance package added by certain dealers. They are not rare or worth anything more than the car itself. if it was a dealer modified car that improved performance, then it could have additional value, but dealer applied appearance packages only don't generally help.

I was debating whether or not to reply with the same thing! It drives me CRAZY when people get that wrong. It's worst than "supposably"

Re: Mystery Car???

That symbol matches but I found one problem with the article about the symbol. It was researched to be 1984. Ours is DEFFINENTIALLY a 1982!

I think it was a mod that started it and then it just snowballed!!!
