1970 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z/28
The 1970 Camaro marked the beginning of the second generation for Chevy’s popular pony car, and the Z/28 with the RS (Rally Sport) package was one of the most desirable configurations. With a more European-inspired design — longer, lower, and wider than its predecessor, the ’70 Camaro was a true performer with refined styling.
The Z/28 package gave you the LT1 350 cu in V8, pumping out 360 horsepower (gross), a high-revving, solid-lifter engine derived from Corvette DNA. Mated to a close-ratio 4-speed and optional Positraction rear, it was a serious track-ready machine.
The RS package added distinctive cosmetic upgrades: split chrome bumperettes, hidden headlights, revised front fascia, and unique badging. Combining both the RS and Z/28 packages meant you got serious muscle wrapped in a sharply styled package.
1970 was a one-year-only high point: emissions and insurance regulations would soon dull performance across the board. That makes the 1970 RS Z/28 especially coveted today, a perfect blend of looks, rarity, and raw power.

Buyers pick favorites, and those years get saved, restored, and passed down, while the years next to them…

The Insurance Total-Loss Process
By Mike Thies
A total-loss declaration is a math problem first and a negotiation second. If you understand how the insurer reaches its number, you can tell whether that number is fair, and what to do if it is not.
This guide is general information, not an appraisal of any specific vehicle. For a valuation you can rely on, request an…
