1968 Camaro VIN 124378N463246

3rd owner car originally bought from the famous Brigance Chevrolet in Chicago, Ill.
49,950 documented miles. All oil change stickers with recorded dates and mileage. Both sets of original keys. Second owner (daughter of original owner) copy of title and original State of Illinois DMV envelope from 1978. Original 1968 window sticker, not a copy, preserved in plastic envelope. Vehicle retains its numbers matching original drive train down to the smog pump and carburetor tag. Original interior is superb.

About 50% of the car is in its original Rallye Green paint (5900JJ). Options were the 5F41C special purpose front and rear suspension, 5221AC style trim group, 5D96AA accent white striping (both side pin striping and bumble bee stripe), 5U35AA electric clock, 5B93AA door edge guards, 5A01AA tinted glass and 5U63AB AM radio.

Code LF7/M15 vehicle retains the original 327, 2 barrel, 210 hp engine with 3 speed manual transmission – shift on the column. Original 10 bolt, 3.08:1 rear. Manual steering along with manual drum brakes. Original interior except for new carpet. Vehicle was fully insulated with heat shield at time of installing GM licensed carpet kit. All windows, door locks and electrics operate including original clock and radio. All original Soft Ray glass is exceptionally good along with trim and rubber bumpers. All vent doors operate; kick panels and round dash vents. All 5 seat belts and harnesses operate and headliner and sun visors are in excellent condition. Original dash pad is in mint condition. Original jack and one original Uniroyal tire for the spare.

Spark plugs were changed in 1979 (46,610 miles) and 2nd title 2006 shows 48,371 miles.
Currently, the odometer displays 49,948 miles here in 2014 (just over 3000 miles in the past 35 years). I have the oil change and spark plug change tags along with title copies that document the mileage.

Car was made roadworthy by several new parts and removal of any rust. Body is in exceptional condition along with all mechanicals. New aluminized factory style exhaust. New are leaf springs, rear sub frame rails and bushings, stainless steel factory brake lines, brake components and drums. New floor pans and trunk pan along with gas tank and fuel lines. Rear outer wheelhouses along with trunk drop offs were replaced new and any lower quarter rust removed and replaced with new steel cut from new quarter panels. A reputable mechanic shop in Illinois installed a new stock cam and lifter set, timing chain and oil pump only 1,600 miles ago. This car had set in a garage with a tarp over the vehicle after the passing of the original owner from about 1981 to 2008, hence the floor replacement and mechanical work. New heater core installed and all cable controls and fan operate smoothly. The fenders have never been off the car.

I received a packet of documentation that contains over $6,400 worth of parts and labor receipts along with a disc of photos showing the progress of floor and sub frame rail replacement. I also made photos of all outside rust repairs and insulation. With only minor rust under the battery tray, this car can easily be fully painted for the first time and be a great car with the rare ‘three on the tree’ and 327 V8. This time capsule starts every time, drives and stops nicely, a joy to drive.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
