matter of a fact most had 305s in them.
BUT if it is cheap there is a rising interest in those regardless of what motor is in them and depending on what kind of shape it is in.

Iono bout this one bro. If it was a 72 with the circular tail lights I would say do it. Especially since u could avoid smog. But as far as possibly having to do a restoration I don't see it being worth it for a 79. Unless the vert isn't in good shape either

So it was ordered like that from the factory? Does he have any other paperwork with the special order from Chevy? If he has paperwork and u can prove it was a Factory package. U might have something brewing here. If u think it's a smart investment do it.... TTT

i think it all comes down to what condition your vert is in, those "mullet" camaros( 74-8?) arent anything good, even with a big block in it, it will still be a turd because of all the smog garbage. unless the car is immaculate but just needs some motor work, or this guy has original GM documentation of the factory motor swap i wouldnt do it, unless your vert isnt in good shape or needs alot.

If that is true and you research it then I would say buy get it because it would be worth tens of thousands of dollars being a one of car.
It was definetly not a california car as the EPA would not allow, as you will find in your research.
Ask on http://www.nastyz28.com in the forums.
Good luck man.
