Offered here for sale has got to be the most documented first generation convertible Camaro on the planet. The huge binder that accompanies the car is packed full of all documentation, photographs, and related starting from birth and continues to date. A complete provenance. I did not take pictures of everything as there is so much but will do so for a specific request. I originally looked at literally hundreds of first generation Camaros searching for this car. There are many out there but unlike this one few have any legitimate documentation and many have been pieced together from multiple cars and reproduction parts. Additionally this car was purchased by a Canadian collector, I believe via a Barrett Jackson sale, and I rescued it not only back to the U.S. where a car like this belongs but also back home to within a few miles from where it was originally purchased (see additional info on that below). The only reason I am selling this fabulous car is my son is now in college and my daughter is a high school senior thus this one has to find a new home to help support the cause. In addition to the documentation this car is a special order X-11 code car. The car was specially-ordered locally in Georgia in 1969 by Judson Whatley for his 24th birthday. He kept the car for almost 20 years and apparently was extremely anal saving every piece of paper associated with the purchase and his 20 year ownership of the car. This precedent was continued through the years by others up to and including my period of ownership. You will not find another car documented to this extreme. Very original “Survivor” RARE X11-coded Special Order Camaro. 327ci/210hp manual 3-speed Camaro convertible. Includes one of a kind detailed and comprehensive provenance as well as complete photographic documentation of 1993 correct-color repaint. What Makes This Car Stand Out Above Others?

u CONDITION:
Examples of items in the huge binder include original special order (X-11) paperwork/original Bill of Sale, first gas receipt on purchaser's own street, some kind of original owner's name badge "Judson Whatley, Personnel Division", additional original keys, original Protect-O-Plate and owner's manual, all registration, insurance, and tax related paperwork over the years, original owner's (Judson Whatley) Auto Trader page at time of first sale after 19 years of ownership at 77K miles showing original special order "hockey stick" stripes and other special order options, 1993 restoration and correct-color and only repaint, photos at several car shows to include 1992 Southeastern Nationals, infinite and methodical documentation of any and all repairs to date over the car's life, and everything else one might want to see. I personally added photos of the car in front of the original dealership, located about 20 miles from my home, as well as next to the new retro Camaros. The third generation family owner of the still in business dealership (Andean Chevrolet in Cumming, Georgia) spent time looking at the car and reviewing the original documentation. He specifically commented his late Mother's signature on the original Bill of Sale and made a copy of it for himself. He also provided a hand-written letter on Andean letterhead for the binder as well as some dealership decals and trinkets. I added some additional pictures to include departure from Canada and arrival back to its original home in Georgia. Added the GT Parade booklets and photos as well. Also included is the prior Alberta, Canada plate. Car still wears it's 1993 restoration repaint which presents very well. No rust anywhere, no scratches, no dents, just a few very minor nicks touched up in the past with correct match touchup paint. Car has parade boot, as well as original jack and spare tire. Body panels including floor pans and trunk are believed to be original. The car was featured in a commercial 5 years ago which is still on YouTube at the link below. Car is driven regularly and can easily be driven anywhere with no concern. Has been driven in the last two Georgia Tech homecoming parades and the rare and original color Olympic Gold is very similar to the color of the Ramblin' Reck color of the mascot vehicle. Car can be made available with adequate notice for professional inspection or personal visual inspection. $1000 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction close. Car is will be also for sale locally shortly and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck. You will not be disappointed! You will not find a better documented and unmolested original First Generation Camaro plus the unique X-11 code special order features. If you would like any additional information do not hesitate to contact me via ebay email. Don |

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
