1983 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 — 3,793 Original Miles, 5-Speed Manual, Numbers-Correct Why This Car Is Special Finding a 1983 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 with under 4,000 original miles is not a matter of luck — it is a matter of someone making a deliberate decision to park a car and leave it alone for four decades. That is exactly what happened here. This red-over-gray Z/28 has covered just 3,793 miles from new, and it shows in every corner of the car. The paint, the interior, the undercarriage, the engine bay — all of it reflects a car that has essentially never been used. For collectors focused on unrestored, documented originality, this 1983 Camaro Z/28 occupies a category that rarely comes to market. The third-generation Camaro arrived for 1982 after a brief production delay and was immediately received as one of the sharpest-looking American cars of its era. Motor Trend named it Car of the Year for 1982, a distinction the redesigned platform earned through its aerodynamic sheetmetal, improved chassis dynamics, and much-needed weight reduction compared to the second-gen car it replaced. By 1983, Chevrolet had sorted out early production details and the Z/28 was hitting its stride. The 5.0-liter V8 was the performance engine of choice, backed in this case by the Borg-Warner T5 five-speed manual — the gearbox that put real driving engagement back into the Z/28 after years of emissions-era automatics defining the experience. The combination of the 5.0 V8 and the five-speed was exactly how most buyers who cared about performance ordered their Z/28, and it remains the most desirable drivetrain specification in the third-gen lineup. The VIN on this car confirms it was built at the Van Nuys, California assembly plant, codes consistent with a 1983 model year Camaro Z/28 carrying the 5.0-liter V8 and five-speed manual transmission. Van Nuys-built third-gen Camaros are well documented among collectors. Features List - 5.0L V8 Engine - 5-Speed Manual Transmission (Borg...
