Undoubtedly, the Ford Mustang changed the landscape of the automotive industry when it was introduced in the 60s. Due to its popularity, it gave rise to contenders that would sorely challenge its position; some have been relegated to the dust of times while others are still striving. One of these cars is the Chevrolet Camaro, produced in 1966 with a short hiatus from 2002 to 2009; it has been produced across six generations and continues to strive. The second-generation Chevrolet Camaro is a highly sought-after machine that was produced from 1970 to 1981, with the second half of its production cycle moving onto a facelifted version. A rare chance to own a custom-built 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is within your reach; this car features upgraded mechanics, giving it a mileage of 500 miles on the engine.
For a custom 1980s car, this 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 still sports its original light blue paint with the original decals. The front features an aggressive tapered design with round headlights in square recesses. The hood features a functional Air Induction hood, with the lettering on the sides, while the grille sports the body-color Z28 badge. The lower part consists of a front lip also in body color and with a trio of pinstripe decals shades of blue running the width of it. The sides feature the Z28 decals, while the rear is host to an integrated spoiler with the Z28 badge and dual tailpipe tips in chrome. The Camaro still sits on the original Z28 5-spoke wheels painted in light blue with the Z28 center caps. The interior is finished in blue with Z28 badging sprinkled throughout. The original 4-spoke Z28 rope steering wheel is in place, while behind it, the upgraded and modern instrument cluster is surrounded by an aluminum cover. The seller reports new Vintage Air air conditioning along with new carpeting. The manual gear shifter is from Hurst.
Originally, the 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 was powered by an underpowered 350cu 5.7L V8. The main upgrade is the engine replacement for a new Chevrolet ZZ6 crate engine with over 400hp of power and 406 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with a new 5-speed manual transmission. The custom build also includes new fuel lines, new motor mounts, billet steel flywheel, new fuel tank, new 12 bolt rear, Ridetech new suspension, Ridetech new shocks, new long tube headers, new custom exhaust, and front disc brakes with rear drums.
The Camaro platform was introduced in 1966 as a pony car to compete with Ford's wildly successful Mustang. It quickly rose to fame and became very desirable among both muscle car and sports car enthusiasts. The third-generation Camaro was introduced in 1982, and it modernized the platform heavily with innovations in all departments. The IROC-Z was a performance option that was exclusively available on the Z28 Camaro. It was born out of a racing series, making it a unique Camaro trim level with Corvette DNA. This is a well-preserved example of a 1986 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z Coupe with just 4,820 miles.
While there have been multiple generations of the Chevrolet Camaro, the 1969 model year is one of the most loved by many. The design is timeless and inspired the 2010 revival of the model with the fifth generation. The Camaro was made in response to the success of Ford’s hit, the Mustang. Although the Blue Oval had a headstart, the first-generation Camaro was able to fine-tune the formula, using a brand new F-Body platform and a range of straight-six and V8 engines. For the 1969 model year, the Camaro featured an all-new design, with an aggressive and angular front end, wider “coke-bottle” hips, and new doors. Our featured 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is a restomod with a new supercharged 376ci LSX V8 engine under the hood, as well as several upgrades. The owner reports that this Camaro has only 5,828 miles on it since the build was completed.
The Chevrolet Camaro is one of the most well-known names in the history of American muscle cars. The sixth-generation Camaro that was launched in 2014 quickly became a favorite for many, as it continued the revival of the moniker that has been a prominent figurehead in the American sports car scene. Another name that made the rounds, most notably in the late 1960s and early 1970s, is that of Yenko. Don Yenko was originally a dealer of Chevrolet cars, and also raced in his free time. Yenko famously found a way to circumvent Chevy’s self-imposed restriction of offering a Camaro with anything larger than a 400ci engine. He swapped in a Corvette motor for his own creation, thus starting a long line of performance-oriented Yenko Camaros. Fast forward to today, and Specialty Vehicle Engineering continues to keep the legacy alive with its own take on a modern-day Yenko Camaro. Our featured car is a 2022 Chevrolet Camaro Yenko SC Stage 1, with a supercar-like output of 1050 HP.
While the '60s was the golden year of muscle cars, the '70s also saw some iconic muscle motors being produced. Present here is a thoroughbred '70s muscle car in the form of this 1974 Chevrolet Malibu Classic. This American performance icon is reported to have been fully restored and features a host of tasteful upgrades to stand out in style.
The Chevrolet Corvette has always been an iconic sports car. While the fourth generation may have looked like an evolution of its predecessor, under the skin, things were completely redesigned. The C4 features a revised five-link suspension set up for the rear, which greatly improved handling. The fiberglass panels were upgraded to plastic, and the radiator was angled at 15 degrees so that police radar would have a harder time locking on to the front end. All in all, the C4 generation of Chevrolet Corvette marked a massive shift for the model — and it’s no wonder that interest and prices are on the rise. Our featured car is a 1989 Chevrolet Corvette with 43,000 miles on the clock. It could be the perfect companion for your next classic adventure.

Italy has a rich and vibrant history of producing sports cars of all shapes and sizes. While you may more commonly think of a roaring Ferrari V12 or a Lamborghini V10, the country also gave birth to some truly amazing, affordable sports cars. Take the Fiat X1/9, for example. Despite featuring a relatively small 1,290cc engine, the little Fiat is a true sportscar focused on offering the best driver experience. It’s a strict two-seater with a mid-engine layout and a design that predated the Toyota MR-2 by several years. Today, the Fiat X1/9 has a cult following around the world, with fans smitten by the car’s baby-Ferrari style and experience. Our featured car is reportedly all-original and comes with original mileage of just 49,300 on the odometer — exceptional for a car of this vintage.
From the ’30s to the ’50s, MG was undoubtedly excelled in the sports car arena. Their simple yet engaging T-Type models offered motorsports-winning pedigree to a broad audience and were distinct in their style. The MG TD was the fourth iteration of the T-Type chassis, which started with the TD. While the car’s lineage was still unmistakable, the Midget adopted a more sophisticated approach to the drivetrain. This includes the hypoid-geared rear axle of the MG Y-Type and independent front suspension. Our featured car is a 1952 MG TD Roadster Replica, which has been painstakingly recreated to offer an idea of what the original car would have looked like. Being a relatively modern reincarnation, this replica has reportedly run just 20,000 miles.
