[1]Do you love the looks of the first generation Camaros but the functionality of modern cars? Why should you have to choose between the two when you can have both? Recently, a 2002 Camaro Z/28 was added to the list of cars to be auctioned off at the St. Charles Mecum Auction [2] in the middle of September. But this isn’t just a regular ‘02 Z/28 – it has been reskinned to look like a classic ‘69 Camaro convertible.
The ‘69 Z/28 Rally Sport replica has all the performance components of the ‘02 Z/28, including an LS1 V8. It also has full power accessories, an automatic transmission and air conditioning.
[3]To make the car look more like its vintage counterpart, the ‘02 was reskinned with a more square body and finished off in yellow exterior paint with black race stripes. It also has RS hideaway headlights and classic Z/28 badges. The interior is complete with houndstooth trim for a classic feel.
If you’re interested in bidding on this unique modern Z/28 replica, it is set to cross the auction block on Friday September 16th at 7:10. While it’s not a true classic, this replica is sure to grab a lot of attention. After all, this car gives Camaro enthusiasts the best of both worlds – modern features with a custom vintage look.
