When it debuted in 1970, the second generation of Chevy's Camaro became a low-slung, swoopy speedster that looked like a European exotic from almost any angle. To prove that point, take one look at this head-turning 1972 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 RS 496 Tribute decked out in a fully repainted red with complementary dual full-length white racing stripes. Sporting a monstrous cowl-induction hood to go along with its strategically placed Z/28 badges, this F-body is one of a kind.
Inside, a center console complete with cupholders separates a pair of bucket seats. A four-spoke power-assisted wheel sits just ahead of a six-pod white-faced gauge cluster. In contrast, an additional trio of auxiliary gauges is situated at the base of the console just beyond the T-Bar-style gear selector. An AM/FM cassette radio offers entertainment options, but none that will be any more fun than the monster big block under the hood.
Under that aggressive cowl-induction hood, we find a massive 496 cubic-inch naturally aspirated V-8 engine. Topped with a single four-barrel Holley carburetor and an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, this big-block does away with spent gases via a set of long tube headers and FlowMaster dual exhaust. Power is routed through a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission before reaching a ten-bolt rear. Polished fifteen-inch American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels are shod in staggered BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.
