MY WIFE IS FROM
PROCTORVILLE AND SEVERAL YEARS AGO KAREN HAD A 1967 RS/SS 396-4SPD (KARENS67) IN THIS SAME COLOR COMBINATION. SHE
WISHES SHE HAD NEVER SOLD HER CAR SO WHEN THIS OPPORTUNITY CAME TO BE WE FIGURED IT WAS THE NEXT BEST THING
CONSIDERING ALL OF THE KARMA THAT GOES ALONG WITH THIS CAR. LOVE ME SOME CAR-MA!!! WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND DECIDED
TO HIT THE CAR SHOWS AGAIN AND HOPEFULLY MEET BACK UP WITH SOME OF THE FINE PEOPLE WE MET YEARS AGO. SINCE
PURCHASING THIS CAR WE HAVE ALSO ACQUIRED A LITTLE BUNGALO AT A LAKE THAT I GREW UP ON AND YES YOU GUESSED IT. WE
HAVE SPENT MORE TIME AT THE LAKE EVEN DURING THE OFF SEASON AND HAVE YET TO TAKE THE CAMARO TO A SINGLE CAR SHOW. I
DONT SEE THINGS CHANGING AND I REALLY HATE TO SEE THIS CAMARO GO BUT IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THESE ANTIQUE CLASSIC CARS
TO SIT AROUND AND NOT BE USED. IT NEEDS TO BE APPRECIATED, DRIVEN AND TAKING OUT AND SHOWN OFF. THE CAR IS
CURRENTLY RADIO AND WIPER DELETE. THIS IS A NICE CAR BUT COULD USE TO HAVE A FEW THINGS DONE TO IT TO MAKE IT EXTRA
NICE SUCH AS A DETROIT ELECTRIC HIDE-AWAY HEADLIGHT SYSTEM (AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS) THAT I WAS GOING TO INSTALL AND
JUST HAVE NOT GOTTEN AROUND TO IT. I AM CURRENTLY INSTALLING A BRAND NEW B&M QUICK SILVER SHIFTER (AS SHOWN IN THE
PHOTOS). I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR MUCH AT ALL OTHER THAN JUST AROUND THE COUNTRY COMMUNITY I LIVE IN.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If 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.
