The Camaro model I was looking for was a 1980 or 1981 Z 28 and I had searched what there was to possibly find in Sweden.

I came up with a total of 7 or 8 1980´s and only 1(one) 1981 Camaros and the 81 was a Z and about 3-4 Z´s of the 80´s.
These are the total number of these year´s Camaros in Sweden.

As a member of the Camaro Club Sweden ( www.camaroclubsweden.se ) I was able to look in to the official registre of all Camaros in Sweden that the Camaro Club bought from the official auto registre.
There is a total of about 6000 Camaros from all years 67-02 in the country.

The small number of those Camaros (80-81) here is because they were never sold as new cars in Sweden, all the Camaro´s from those years have been imported by private persons or been taken here when someone have moved back to Sweden from USA.

I looked in to the German site www.mobile.de and found what I was looking for there, it was a longshot but newer the less, I found it. It´s a 350 4-speed with T-top and I restored it last winter to original condition.

Normally there is much more US cars in Sweden (older cars anyway)than Germany but some models are pretty common in Germany mostly newer models, I guess many of them had been taken there by US soldiers doing some time in Germany.
