8k-Mile 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE 

Out of a combination of a lifelong automotive passion and an unyielding desire to support the people of his Alabama community, the Generous Collection was born. Mr. Greg Rusk, a successful business leader in the cardboard industry, with a big heart for helping families and friends in times of need, would regularly pay overly generous fees to acquire an interesting vehicle. After decades of collecting and supporting local automotive enthusiasts, the Rusk family is ready for these vehicles, each with their own story, to write their next chapter back on the road, where they belong.  

The Generous Collection debuts with Part 1 offering over 200 cars in October, all offered without reserve, emerging from years of long-term silent storage. Many additional lots will be offered in the coming months. From the quiet shadows of the Generous Collection to the sunshine of backroads and highways, enthusiasts now have the opportunity to own a piece of a generous car-collecting legacy.

The 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 marked the debut of the third-generation Camaro, introducing a sleek, aerodynamic design and modern engineering to the iconic muscle car. Built on GM’s new F-body platform, the 1982 model was lighter and more fuel-efficient than its predecessor, reflecting the changing automotive landscape of the early 1980s. The Z28 trim was the performance-oriented version, featuring aggressive styling with a front air dam, rear spoiler, and bold graphics.

Under the hood, the Z28 offered a 5.0-liter V8, available with either Cross-Fire Injection or a four-barrel carburetor, producing up to 165 horsepower. It came standard with a three-speed automatic transmission, though a four-speed manual was available. Suspension upgrades and performance tires gave the Z28 sharper handling than the base Camaro.

Inside, the Z28 featured sporty bucket seats, a driver-focused dash, and optional digital instrumentation. It was also the first Camaro to offer fuel injection, marking a technological leap forward. The 1982 Z28 was named Motor Trend magazine’s Car of the Year, solidifying its place as a standout in Camaro history.

This meticulously maintained 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 shows 7,944 actual miles, which is confirmed by the car's CARFAX Vehicle History Report.

Alabama Sales Tax Notice to Bidders: Because this car is located in Alabama, the selling dealer may be required to collect and remit Alabama state sales taxes of up to 2% of the purchase amount, even if the buyer plans to register the car outside of Alabama, if (a) the buyer is located in AZ, CA, FL, IN, MA, MI, or SC (capped at $500 in SC), and (b) the buyer does not transport the car out of Alabama using a common carrier (e.g., if the buyer drives the car or transports the car out of Alabama on a personal trailer). Additionally, the selling dealer may be required to collect and remit Alabama county or city taxes from buyers located outside of Alabama, if (a) the buyer does not transport the car out of Alabama using a common carrier (e.g., if the buyer drives or transports the car out of Alabama on a personal trailer), and (b) the buyer fails to provide an executed Drive-Out Certificate for Nonresidents. For additional information, please consult this publication and your own tax advisor regarding sales taxes applicable to cars located in Alabama that are sold to residents of another state.  

Please note that all lots in The Generous Collection are offered after many years of storage, without operation or service, in warehouse facilities. The seller endeavored to provide limited mechanical servicing to bring some cars back to running potential, however, not all cars will be running at time of sale. Because of the extended static display, it must be assumed that all cars will require additional mechanical attention before being driven safely and, in most cases, cleaning to both the interiors and exteriors. All the cars will have imperfections associated with long-term static storage and require extensive sorting to perform best and safely. The burden of determining a car’s status, both mechanical and cosmetic, rests fully on the bidder, prior to bidding and the close of the auction. All lots are sold as is, where is. 

Additionally, due to the location of the collection and limited access to the facility following the close of the auction, all lots must be retrieved while a Hagerty Marketplace representative is onsite beginning Monday, November 3 through Wednesday, November 19. No cars can be retrieved prior to November 3 and any lots remaining after November 19 will be re-located outside in the parking lot for retrieval by their buyers.
