1980 Chevy Camaro sport coupe with High Performance 3-speed transmission

I loved that car even though the rear suspension was so rusted out it looked like a low rider in the back. Bought it in 1994 and ran like a champ until I loaded up the trunk with groceries and bottomed out going up hill the gas tank litterally fell off the car and I dragged it about 100 feet by the fuel line the fact that I had just filled the tank probably saved my life. How I lived through the 90's is unknown really

looked exactly like this but was white

Sweet! I was hoping we had some members with some old American classics. One more year and that car will be considered an American Antique Car. It's kind of hard to believe...

79 rx-7... internet pic... mine looked the same back in '89



This car was minimalist high revving fun

I thought it was fast and 2nd gear was a kick, revving up to 8k if memory serves... I was heart-broken when then girlfriend smoked me in quarter mile in her VW whatever... I eventually wrapped her (the car) around a pedestrian crossing sign trying to dodge a station wagon that pulled out of a driveway while I was out looking for trouble and cruising 100+mph at 2am with a buddy
