Z28 Export Article

Heres an article from our Norwood Assembly paper back in the day.. kind of a funny read about worker not knowing what they were building that was different from the normal F cars.

Ahh yes the Z28E complete with the clear headlight covers. I recall seeing one on the street up by the Tech Center in Warren MI in the 1980's

And those clear headlight covers just happen to be the exact piece used on the '82 Pace Car! Glad I was able to snag a set years ago.

No cat on the Z28E. The LG4 put out 165 horsepower IIRC.
