Got home with my dads 1992 Camaro RS heritage edition convertible,
Tonite , Tucked her in to her new garage and can't wait till i can give her a bath , And detail job.

It's my 1st Camaro and i hope you guys can answer some of the many things i will want to know.
It was a pleasure of a drive frome Dunedin Fl. To Streamwood Il.
Felt like a new car , tight and sturdy, Not quick with the 305 , But seemed to move pretty fast from 60 + .

I have all original docs. , Window sticker , Bill of sale , All books , And even the sealed cass. tape that came with the car. It is a time capsule , And my dad did a hellva job keeping her this nice for 20 years , Now i hope i get 20 years with it !

 

From what I can see...she's a beauty! Keep the pics coming dude!

 

A few more after a couple hours cleaning

 

And more

 

can you please tell me what color of orange that is or a paint code and nice car

 

Per window sticker Bright Red , Which it is . Cameras not the best

Thanks !

 

I love that color.Man that thing looks awesome!

 

Welcome to the Heritage convertible club! That car is gorgeous!

 

Thanks guys, I'm in love with the thing.
I find my self going out to the garage just to take a look .

 

Very very pretty.

 

A few more pics

 

Some interior shots would be awesome! What color? Red leather?

 

I wish it had the red or black leather. I'ts got the grey cloth

I did that GM vin decoder , And swaped around some of the RPO's that i thought would make it a rare car , The lowest # i could get it down to was 1 of 6 cars lol , I'm sure that can't be accurate.

 

Red would have been sweet !

 

It's still a very rare car... iirc only 1274 verts in 1992, and even less heritage cars. My z28 heritage is one of 208, and that's before breaking down paint/interior combos... could be less than twenty with the Black on red.

Such a nice car. Might post a pic or two in the history and convertible pages here.

 

Red on Red would be too much red for me it blinds my eyes but Nice Car

 

Sweet . I plan on doing a clay bar this weekend , Then it will shine , I did a test spot on the trunk lid , And the paint can be cleaned up alot .

Red with red might be to much , Now that you mention it . I'm fine with the grey.

 

Beautiful. I used to live near Dunedin

 

Awesome car man-love the color combo and would never want it differant. I take it your dad bought it new? How many miles is on her?

 

Yep , documents say it had 17 miles on it at time of purchase
35300 miles on it today.

 

wow your dad took GREAT care of that car. i hope you can too. congrats

 

Dude you should get a photobucket account so you can post your pics full size here and do more than 3 at a time

 

I was wondering how some guys were posting full size photos .
Thanks BADNBLK

Hopeing to take the RS out for a ride in AM . The heater core has been bypassed (NO HEAT) , And there won't be many good driving days left till like april or may .

 

Nice heritage vert!

 

Beautiful Car Bro!!! Congrats!!!!

 

Very nice car dude

 

Your welcome! Guessing the heater core must leak. That sucks man. Its a PITA. If it is you might look into some of GM cooling system sealer tablets. They work great.

 

Just fix the heater core correctly and it won't be a future issue. The new heater core is cheap and it's only time consuming to get it replaced. Do it yourself, enjoy the project, learn about the car and have heat without worrying that it might blow up and leak all over the carpet.

 

 

Yep , No hurry now . Not a winter car and the weathers been changing already . I'll probally wait a bit . Focusing on the paint right now , Car was not waxed once , It had a gallon of teflon applied when new. But i will do the heater core , Now that i know it can be done without removing the dash .

 

Looks identical to mine. I've got the owners manual but am missing the convertible supplement. I've searched and searched to no avail. I tried Helm but they do not have them. If I were you I would not part with it if you have it but I'd be more than happy to pay for a copy of it. Either way, its a great looking car, enjoy it. I really like mine, it would be nice if it had about 50 more horses under the hood but then do I really need to go that fast, no. Tickets are a waste of money.

 

PM me bro , Which one ya missing . I got 2

 

Damn you got it all! LOL I wasn't saying the tablets would be a wise permanent repair for the leaking heater core, but might buy you time. They were designed as a service bulletin repair for the leaky cadillac head gaskets. They solved my heater core leak until I was ready to replace the heater core. Replacement is always the best especially as nice as your car is.

 

BADNBLK , Fagetaboutit ! The lines were by passed years ago , And my dad never had it fixed , Because he did'nt trust anyone to remove the dash , And not crack or damage it . If it just happen , I would try the tabs in a heartbeat to get some temporary heat . I will do it next spring , Or over the winter if its another mild one here . Cheers !

 

I've replaced 2 heater cores in thirdgens and you DONT need to pull the dash. Last one I did took me about an hour. Not rocket science.
