I had a 74 Z/28. Bought new, by 1979 the back half was rusted out terribly. Not the worst car I owned, but near the top of the list. Hope you had better luck.
I wish I had a Z28. Mine was a plain old Camaro with a 350 cubic inch engine, 2 barrel carburetor and single exhaust. Stock was 145 HP which had to be the least for any Chevy 350 in history of the company. A lot of “pollution control” that was diconnected when I bought used.
It did have a 8 track tape deck.

350/2BBL That was the base coupe.
One of the reasons I was drawn to this car was it was it had no pollution accessories on it. No air pump or cats. Dual exhaust back to a single muffler with two pipes exiting. It was quick, but by no means really fast. And, it had no stereo/tape player. It was an odd selection of options and I can only guess it was a special order that was never delivered. God, those front and rear bumpers added a bunch of weight didn't they?
