Description[]

The Camaro Z-28 is based on the actual production model from 1978 to 1981. It is derived from the Cookin' Camaro tooling used in the Scorchers lineup, it being one of four models to continue to be used by Mattel after the series's discontinuation; as a result this casting has no interior and its windows are usually blacked out or heavily tinted to reflect this.

Early versions of the casting have the base misspelled Camro Z-28; this would be fixed in later releases of the initial version. The casting gained a plastic base in 2007.
