Default LG Motorsports ZR28

This really made my week. I contacted someone selling a ZR28 on craigslist http://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/cto/1794973639.html (okay, let's be honest, I kind of hounded him ) and he sent me some better pics. The car is gorgeous and still for sale.

1996 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 with ZR28 pkg by LG Motorsports and Suncoast SS hood, One Owner, nonsmoker, Super Sharp and Very Clean, Runs and Drives Great, 117k miles, LT1 350, automatic (transmission recently rebuilt), Fully Loaded, T-tops, leather interior, 17" Enkei WIN wheels, Hypertech programmer, Borla exhaust, K&N cold air filter, . The only negatives are a few chips in paint, and cracked dash pad. This car is a real head turner. Serious Buyers Only, No Joy riders, Scammers, or tire kickers. $6500 cash or Best Offer, Call xxx-xxx-xxxx

If you see this ad, it is still for sale.
Anyway, I'm trying to convince him that he should take some more pictures so that I'll have enough to use his car as the feature/showcase car for the future LG Motorsports ZR28s on my website. His car is just such a great color combo and a great representation of a rare aftermarket Camaro. How rare? No idea.






Really, without more photos of his car, there won't BE much of a page, so I hope he'll help. My collection of pics of these cars is pretty pathetic. What few I have are really low res and pixelated. Typical early-days-of-the-internet and early-days-of-digital-cameras type of pics.

Does anyone have any information about these cars to share? I believe there was a stage 1 package rated at about 350 hp and a stage 2 package rated at about 425 hp, but that's about all I remember. I'm not sure what stage this one above is. For all I know it may only have the appearance items. I haven't asked the owner. Anybody have the original brochure(s) or price lists or anything like that they can take a picture of or scan? Anybody know anybody else who owns one? Pics?

Brent Franker's 4th Gen appearance Guide is full of early LT1 shop cars like the ZR28s. Check it out.

Calling LG Motorsports did not provide anything additional?

I haven't contacted them yet. I'll contact them directly when I start the design of the ZR28 page, but it's usually better to find owners of the cars because they're more willing to send pics.

Hey here are some pics of my ZR28 I honestly have no idea how rare it is but wherever I search no one seems to know about it. Obviously its rare. But I'm not sure how rare it is.

Awesome car! The ground effects are interesting. You have the Xenon front ground effect, but the sides and rear pieces look like the LG ZR28 ones. You have an SS hood like the car I posted a long time ago, even though that wasn't really something LG ever did as far as I know. What year is your Camaro?

Was your car purchased originally from Young Chevrolet in the Dallas, TX area? If so, then it might have been originally equipped as a ZR28 when it was basically a new car. Otherwise, it was likely pieced together by the first or second owner. Does your car have the real '96-'97 SS air intake? If so, that's super cool, as that air intake is pretty rare. It's the one that sits on top of the intake and breathes from the hood vent.
