1968 Chevrolet Camaro, California car, restored original Black/Gold plates, pink slip in hand. I an the 3rd owner. This is a project car that DOESN'T have drive-train. The car is currently in primer, with fabricated stinger hood on it. There are also pics of car with yellow paint as I got it.
I have owned the car for about 6 years. It was purchase in So. Cal and is a true So. Calif car. It retains it's original: sheet metal, floor pans, doors, glass, guages, seats (out of car), steering wheel, safety belts. Original carpet has been taken out and the loose change found under carpet comes with car. The rear-end is a Moser with 3:73 Richmond Gears, Auburn posi. with around 3,000 miles (I HAVE NOT seen this rear-end in use. I purchased it from Tom Nelson. I am basing my statements on his knowledge and reputation. The hood is a fiberglass stinger, Nicky style hood. It came jelled on both sides and was professionally fabricated. (It was around $1000 new without fab work) I also have the original flat hood AND the cowl hood from prev. own. comes with aluminum Ron Davis radiator, twin fan/ missing one fan.
Overall, this is just a wonderful project for someone wanting a stratight, no-rust, original California car. When considering price, as you can see, you will not have to worry about replacing floors, roof or any sheet metal. There is the usual surface rust and patina. I will also add pic of cowl (trim) tag. This car is "non-op" with Calif. DMV, no back fees due. *Car is being sold locally, auction could end at any time.*

REGARDING RUST- As a novice who knows very little about body work, I do not think there is anything on this car that would need to be replaced due to rust. But my statement "NO RUST" is not accurate. There is surface rust throughout the car. If you can't see the car in person, please have a professional look at the pics. Thanks.

The REAR END is in the car. Engine Bay has has been painted in satin black. The trunk is all original sheet metal and in really nice shape with no rust. I found the "57" stamp in the sheet metal, indicating original to car. having trouble downloading pics. Please contact me for pics and I will send them to you.

2020 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled due to faulty brake component
Wed, Mar 11 2020General Motors is recalling 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups to fix a defect in the trucks' brake system. Certain Silverado and Sierra pickups were produced with brake-caliper bolts that were not heat-treated. Without heat-treating, the bolts are weaker than they should be, and there is a risk that they could fail, which would affect the trucks' braking performance, possibly leading to a crash. In total, 20,352 vehicles are affected. Owners of affected trucks will be contacted by GM. Dealers will inspect the bolts and replace those that are defective. Related Video: Â Â Â
'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia
Fri, Jan 16 2015These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

2016 Chevy Volt arrives with 50-mile EV range, 41 mpg [w/ video]
Mon, Jan 12 2015Let's start with the numbers. The 2016 Chevy Volt will have an all-electric range of 50 miles from a new, 18.4-kWh lithium battery. It will get 41 miles per gallon (combined) once the battery runs dry and have 102 MPGe. Oh, and it has five seats, sort of. To compare, today's four-seat 2015 Volt has a 38-mile range from a 17.1-kWh battery in a powertrain that offers 37 mpg and 98 MPGe. So, across the board, there are notable improvements. Now that that's out of the way, let's talk story. General Motors will unveil the new Volt at the Detroit Auto Show later today, but it's been talking about how this new version – the first major plug-in hybrid vehicle to get a serious redo in the modern era – was crafted with reams and reams of data from first-gen Volt customers. At a preview event for journalists last week, GM executive chief engineer Pam Fletcher told Autoblog that these owners "gave us the recipe" to make the second-gen model. At the top of the request list was more range (check), more "fun-to-drive" behavior (check?) and a smoother and quieter experience (we'll assume a check here, given that the new 1.5-liter four-cylinder – the first North American application of this new engine family – should offer more power with less noise than the previous 1.4-liter, four-cylinder powerplant). Other customer-driven changes in the new Volt include a different place to store the charging cable (in the side of the trunk instead of under the load floor) and a new brake system with improved blended regenerative braking feel as well as driver-selectable regen levels. The requested 50-mile range comes from a new, lighter battery that has increased capacity from fewer cells (192 vs. 288) and a simplified control architecture. Along with the new battery, the electric drive unit is a two-motor deal that is up to 12 percent more efficient and 100 pounds lighter, while also being "tremendously smaller," notes Fletcher. It offers 294 pound-feet of torque and a maximum 149 horsepower of "motoring power" delivered to the wheels. GM says it has worked hard to reduced the amount of rare earth materials in these motors, and one of them doesn't use any at all. The new powertrain offers improved acceleration times, as well. The 2016 Volt can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.4 seconds, a seven-percent improvement, while the 0-30 mph time has been improved by 19 percent, down to 2.6 seconds. The new Volt is more conventional looking, but certainly not completely ordinary.
