Rarely does a classic car with such low mileage surface. While many are meticulously stored for future sale, others are simply forgotten. This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro is one such example. With just 267 miles on the odometer, it’s likely the lowest-mileage 1979 model in existence.

After a few brief outings, it was parked and left untouched for an astonishing 45 years. A thick layer of dust serves as evidence of its prolonged slumber. Unlike many barn finds, this Camaro has been fortunate.

Unlike many cars that succumb to rust after decades of neglect, this one was kept in a dry garage. While the engine may need a rebuild, the car’s interior and exterior remain remarkably intact.

Even the two tone paint regained its luster after a long overdue wash. A recent discovery has unearthed a time capsule on wheels a 1979 Camaro boasting remarkably low mileage. After years of slumber in a garage, the car has emerged looking pristine, almost as if it just rolled off the assembly line.

But the true worth of this classic car hinges on what lies beneath the hood. While the late 1970s Camaros may not hold the same allure as their earlier muscle car brethren, the presence of a specific engine option can significantly inflate its value.
