    it says the reg date is september 1984 , a little bit of a wait to tax it for 48 euro

    It reg details say it has a 4.1l engine, so a bit of naughty there if it has a 7.4 l engine now. It was manufactured in 1979, so that should be OK for €48 tax. UK tax is only £205/year

    Cost a lot of petrol to get it her, single figure miles per gallon.

    Good luck with it.:D

    The '84 UK registration could be a little bit tricky if there is no proof of the original registration in Belgium. I'd get an email confirmation from the VRO that the car is pre 1980 for motor tax / vrt purposes before I'd buy it .

    I've no idea what it's worth but the engine sound is gonna be pretty spectacular :D

    The car is witouht a shadow of a doubt a second gen Camaro (70-81) and is no way '84 but as unkel said it would be adviseable to get confirmation from the VRO before buying. Secondly it's not a Z28, and not matching numbers as the engine has been changed to the 454. On the plus side it's a pretty clean looking example and that 454 will burn rubber in every gear. It also has a B&M shifter installed which pretty much converts the auto box to a 'chunky' tiptronic.

    Nobody can tell for sure by pics alone but if it's as tight as he suggests it's a fair amount of car for that price.

    Does the V5 have the date of first registration?
