This all numbers matching Z28 COPO has been certified by Jerry MacNeish as one of less than 8 known to exist with
all original build sheet to prove authenticity (see pics below). Many claim to have the rare COPO 9796 option but
without original buildsheet or window sticker (as seen here) it's simply hearsay. This Z28 COPO Special Race
Spoiler package for the 1970 Camaro was designed to allow Chevrolet to continue to dominate the SCCA Trans-Am Race
Series. After testing the standard issue D80 short spoiler showed significant lift at speeds in excess of 120MPH.
The new COPO 9796 high spoiler helped down force at higher speeds and was a significant improvement in the areas of
stability and cornering traction in SCCA Trans-Am racing series. In order to comply with SCCA race rules, a limited
number of these cars were built in late April 1970, and starting in June, also included the front spoiler as part
of this package. As shown on the buildsheet and documented by MacNeish, this car was built in late June of 1970.
This example originally finished in Mulsanne Blue, with the optional deluxe blue interior. This COPO Z also retains
its original "born with" LT1, TH400 automatic transmission and 3.73 posi rear. The list of options from the factory
per the buildsheet and MacNeish is as follows:

Z28 Special Engine and equipment
Since MacNeish authenticated this car nearly a decade ago, we've done a lot to get it to the next level, we painted
the car in it's original mulsanne blue with black stripes per build sheet, along with redoing the interior with the
rare correct comfort weave blue with black deluxe interior (sourced the last of the original fabric). We
refurbished the wheels and added the original bias-ply F-60 Firestone wide ovals. This is a rust free car with all
original sheet metal still on the car. The engine has never been out of the car and since she runs amazing as is,
we've opted to keep much of the engine bay original at this time, though as you can see in the pictures, is very
presentable as is. This past summer, we were pleased to have her accepted to the prestigious Hillsborough Concours
D'elegance where the COPO Z placed 3rd in class! (5 point deduction for no fire extinguisher in car, otherwise we
would've placed 2nd or perhaps 1st!)

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow
Thu, 14 Feb 2013After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
