Lot 6496: 1977 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z28

A 1977 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 is typically worth $25,000 to $40,000, depending on condition and originality.

Here’s what the data shows:

Current Market (1977-1979 examples):

• $28,900 – $39,995 – Range for available listings today
• $21,500 – $24,000 – Recent actual sales prices

Why the 1977 is interesting: 1977 was the first year the Z28 returned after disappearing in 1975-76. It came back as more of an appearance package with distinctive graphics, a monochrome grille for those federal “safer bumpers,” and a 350ci V8 (around 180hp thanks to emissions). That said, over 200,000 Z28s sold from ‘77-‘81 alone – making them relatively attainable compared to the high-horsepower 1970-72 models that trade for $60k+.

Context on the broader market: The 2nd Gen Z28 market has an average sale price of $37,655 across all years (1970-1981), but that average is heavily skewed by the valuable early cars. Your 1977 is valued typically below that average because horsepower was significantly down and the Z28 was more an appearance package by this point.

The specific car you were just looking at – that red 1977 RS Z28 with 7k miles TMU, matching numbers, and original condition – is available at $29,900. That’s right about where you’d expect for a clean, documented survivor.
