Barry P's 1971 Camaro RS/Z28 | Ground Up Motors

One of the good things to come out of 2020 for Barry was finding this 1971 Camaro in Texas.

Back in the day Barry used to race a 1973 Camaro RS/Z28 when he was young, so this one checked off that nostalgia factor. It is a real 1971 Camaro RS/Z28 with the factory 350ci/330hp small block paired to the factory 4 speed manual, so slightly more desirable than a 1973 would be.

“I love the split bumpers with high turn signals with the rubber nose.”

It has already had a factory-style restoration in the past but is due for a refresh. Barry plans to keep it as vintage as possible. He would like to pass it down to one of his sons someday.
