On May 17, 1979, a Camaro was born, in the Van Nuys Assembly Plant in Southern California. It was originally sold at Bunnin Chevrolet in Culver City and has stayed in southern California all its life. Last fall, when my dad and I did the interior on the car, we stumbled upon the build sheet. I bought this Camaro last August and since then, we have done our best to restore it. Before us, the previous owner had this car in a garage for 22 years. It had been through quite a lot in its 41 years of existence.
