     I am listing my 1974 Z28 Camaro that I purchased in 1987 again due to a buyer default on the last auction. I am the third owner and when I purchased the car, I purchased the body and a 10 bolt rear end. I then put a 12 bolt rear end in it with 4:10 Richmond gears. The transmission is a 400 turbo with a shift kit and a 3000 stall converter and the trans was worked on by a local professional. The engine is a 454 bored 30 over with a steel LS 7 crank with dimple rods and 11:1 TRW Pistons. The intake is a twisted torker intake with a Holley 780 carb.  The cam is a Competion hydraulic cam (305/ 575), and it has a Pete Jackson gear drive. The heads have double valve springs and Cam Dynamics roller rockers. I don't remember the exact size of the valves in the heads, but they we're ported and polished in the late 90s. It has an HEI ignition with an MSD 7A. There are 2 half inch aluminum fuel lines that run to the front one for the carb and one for the Nitrous. It also has a cheater nitrous system and a B&M ratcheting shifter with the nitrous button on the handle.  The headers are new two inch headers and the photo is of new Flow Masters which are three inch and the pipes are three inch also that go with the car and never installed. I never really got the nitrous and the plugs dialed in right, but the car ran  consistently in the mid 12 s in the quarter mile with the Hoosier Quicktime d.o.t tires on the back which are screwed to the rims. There is also a new aluminum three core radiator that was just installed this year.  
     There has never been any metal taken out of the car and the LS 7 scoop on the hood is a mold in type and is cracked around the mold and was like that when I purchased a vehicle. There is some paint chipping on the hood, roof, and trunk deck near the fender wells and rusting on the passenger side and some underneath. The paint job is from the early 80's and has not been painted or touched since. The metallic in the paint is the type that changes colors in the light.
I have not raced this Camaro on the street or strip since the late 90's but have driven it to car shows including this year. It has been in my garage on a cement floor since and starts and runs great. If you live close, we can go for a spin and through the quarter mile on the back road where I still shift it at six grand. I'm selling because I do not have the money to play with it or restore it. Got a sone going to college and others growing up too. This is my baby so let me know if you have any questions.

     If you check out the vin, it came with the high horse 350 with the munci four speed and is an LT/Z28. The fifth digit being a "t" signifies the LT/Z28 (1S87T4N172068)  The clutch peddle is still in the car wire tied out of the way. If anyone would like a video of the car running or additional photos just let me know.

    THIS IS A LOCAL PICK UP ONLY AND IF YOU WANT IT SHIPPPED, YOU'LL HAVE TO ARRANGE THAT ON YOUR END. $500 IS DUE WITHIN 48 HRS AT THE END OF THE AUCTION AND THE BALANCE DUE WITHIN SEVEN DAYS BEING CASH, OR A CASHIER'S CHECK OR MONEY ORDER FROM A U.S. BANK WHICH WE WILL CLEAR BEFORE THE CAR LEAVES.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
