1978 Camaro History
The 1978 Chevrolet Camaro featured a reworked nose -- in soft,
resilient urethane -- that carried grille work above and below a
body-colored bumper. At the rear, tri-color taillamps sat against a
black or silver rear panel.
In addition to new "soft" fascias,
the Z28 flaunted aggressively shaped front fender louvers and new
optional aluminum wheels. "It's exciting, it's virile, it's a legend,"
said the brochure. No reason the car had to look puny, even if performance was no longer anything to shout about.
A total of 54,907 Z28s were built with a 185-horse, four-barrel upgrade of the 350 engine, list-priced at $5,604.
Ads promised that a Z28 would "put butterflies in your stomach, a lump in your throat and a smile on your face." Known primarily as "driver's cars," the late-Seventies Z-cars were no slouches when the pedal hit the floor, blasting to 60 mph in as little as 7.5 seconds.
Base Camaros were the most popular models, with more than 134,000 built, starting at $4,414. In between the base model and Z28, the line included a Rally Sport and a more popular Type LT (which cost only $30 more), plus a combination of Type LT and Rally Sport that stickered for $5,065.
Total Camaro output came to 272,631 cars. Engine choices included a 110-horsepower 250-cubic-inch six, 145-horsepower 305-cubic-inch V-8, and 170-horsepower 350-cubic-inch V-8.
