There's few cars on the market that can match the sheer athletic looks of the Chevrolet Camaro, and even fewer that look as menacing as this one does. This California built 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 is absolutely incredible, clocking in at only 94k original miles and standing out with a killer graphics package and an immaculate interior. Wrapping a correct numbers matching Chevrolet small-block 350 C.I. V8 under the hood and pairing it to a 4-barrel carburetor. Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed turbo 350 automatic transmission, 3;42 open rear end, allowing for smooth cruising as it shifts seamlessly. As sweet as they appear, the Camaros of the late 70s and early 80s tend to get overlooked, which is a shame because these Camaros came with some of the coolest decal packages ever equipped from the factory. A correct, 19-code "Gloss Black" paint covers the exterior wonderfully, pairing excellently with the exceptionally-striking orange & red Z-28 decals. It reflects like a mirror in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine, and it covers bodylines that are nice and straight. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all rock-solid, and they all present well! The interior is positively stunning, nearly all-original with comfy tan cloth & vinyl bucket seats and a full center console. This '79 Camaro came with plenty of options from the factory, all of which are still present! They include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, power windows, factory A/C, "dual-sport" mirrors, a remote driver's mirror, the original gauges and tachometer, the original AM/FM stereo, a tilt steering wheel, a rear defroster, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on factory-spec 15" black Z-28 wheels over brand New Cooper Cobra RWL tires for a look straight out of 1979! As slick as this Camaro appears, it runs and drives down the interstate even better. You'll be hard-pressed to find another Z-28 with the level of originality and correctness that this one has, so don't let it pass you by! We'd love to see you drive it away.

What began as a used car store in the 1970’s soon blossomed into one of the premier classic car dealerships in the country with a showroom boasting more than 25,000 square feet. During that time, celebrities, professional athletes, movie stars and prominent businessmen were highlighting the Duffy’s satisfied customer list. That company, founded on solid Midwest values and work ethic, would become the model for what all future classic and specialty car dealerships would emulate. The “new” Duffy’s is now home to more than 60 vehicles in the same glorious showroom that brought them prominence from the 1980’s through the early 21st century. A full service automotive and detailing department meticulously tends to each vehicle ensuring a fun, sound investment opportunity for its owner.
Turn the clock to today a resurgence of that historic Duffy’s brand. Classic Enterprises that became a descendant business, realized the value of the original Duffy’s recognition and reputation. When the old name became available we jumped on it. The name, the logo and the commitment to excellence have now been resurrected and have replaced the Classic Enterprises moniker. In addition, two of the “old school” members of the original Duffy’s management team are leading the company transition along with a full sales and service staff.
While the definition of a “classic” vehicle may have changed over the years that same,” Old School” Duffy’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction has not.
