If you drive your second generation 1978-81 Chevrolet Camaro a fair amount, there’s a great chance that other motorists are going to be staring at your muscle car’s tail end quite a bit. Should your baby be a strong runner, other drivers will have a hard time keeping pace. They’ll be admiring that terrific styling and engineering that went into creating the entire vehicle but especially the tail.
Since many of the components that comprise your Camaro’s rump are manufactured from ABS and injection molded plastics, as well as rubber gaskets, those components could be looking long in the tooth. They may be brittle, faded, cracked, listless, and outright down for the count. With exposure to all the elements, those 30+ year old plastic and rubber parts have seen better days. It may well be time to remove those worn-out components and renew them with some OER reproduction items that are readily available from Classic Industries.
