Beautiful 1968 Camaro Convertible with a book load of new parts and a ton of work done by the previous owner.  I will kind of list all the stuff done to the car in sections, I'm sure I will forget some stuff because there is a lot.

Body:  Beautiful 68 Matador Red paint with black reverse hockey stick stripe(68 only stripe).  Paint looks fantastic and straight, stripe is buried in the clear and can't be felt by rubbing your hand over it.  Have searched trunk and fenders and there are no patch panels on the car.  Any rust removed was done with full panels.  Floor is absolutely perfect with no rust, scale or anything whatsoever.  Floor is finished off in a factory correct semi gloss black and looks great.  Convertible top may be the original top for the car but looks great, back window is a little yellow and cloudy but you can see through it fine, no rips or tears in this top. 

Suspension:  Car is loaded with Hotchkis suspension parts.  Upper and lower control arms(del alum bushings), rear leaf springs, rear sway bar that has a brace that mounts between the frame rails to make it more rigid, subframe connectors, floor support(convertibles only), front sway bar all parts are hotchkis.  Also has qa1 coil over shocks in the front and Bilstein shocks in the rear.  Car handles like a slot car!!

Wheels:  Rocket Racing rocket boosters, 18's in the rear, 17's in the front.  Wilwood 4 wheel disc brakes and all new brake lines and booster.

Engine:  GM crate zz4 engine with 400 hp hooked to a tremec 5 speed with new drive shaft hooked to a 10 bolt posi with a new eaton 3:73 posi unit.  Shorty headers connected to flowmaster transverse muffler with aluminized exhaust.  Stainless steel gas tank.  No LEAKS on this car.  Griffin radiator that never gets above 195 even in the Texas heat with the a/c on, cooled by a nice electric fan.

Interior:  Late model Camaro front seats with original back seat.  Deluxe door panels front and rear.  Original seat belts in rear seat and late model Camaro seat belts in front.  Vintage air A/C that blows ice cold.  Factory looking am/fm radio that is actually one of those new ones that has ipod connections and is actually digital, can't tell it's not the original one, love this option.  Dynomat throughout the whole interior.  Windshield wiper doesn't work, sent motor back to DSE, they said motor good switch bad.  Never cared since I don't drive it in the rain.  Glass is original(except windshield) and looks like 43 year old convertible glass.  All header panel chrome is new as are sunvisors.  Tilt steering wheel with beautiful Flaming river steering wheel(horn works).  All speedo, tach and gauges work.  Gas gauge works on and off, might be a loose wire or bad sending unit, am including a new sending unit with the car.  Never cared, just always kept plenty of gas in it.  All other lights, turnsignals, marker lights, reverse lights, etc work perfectly.  Rear lights are LED and light up super bright, look awesome, front head lights are projection style.

Ring Brothers:  Has many ring brothers dress up accessories on the car that look like fine jewelry.  Hood hinges, fender braces, astro ventilation covers, door strikers and SS hood louvers(billet aluminum).

I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff but you get the picture.  A really nice Camaro Convertible for a realistic reserve.  Car isn't perfect but it will give you little things to tinker with.  Car starts up like fuel injection and has never had any mechanical problems since I've been driving it, heck, pretty much everything is new!!!!!  Interesting fact about the car, 68 was a leap year, this car was built the 5th week of February witch I guess would be the 29th.  712 interior, F2(island teal with a black top).  02E production date.

Thanks for looking

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 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.
