Up for sale is a very nice affordable 1969 Camaro.

X11D80 Trim code   D80 - Air Spoiler Equipment (when used not all cars built with spoilers were coded)

I recently acquired the car and it is a means to an end for me because I am saving to buy a fastback Mustang or 68-69 Chevelle. There has been a lot of time and money put into this car, it has many new parts and it is very close to being a high dollar car.

I have a reasonable reserve on the car, and whomever buys it will always be able to get there investment back. And with some work there is much potential to profit if that is what you want.

I am going to be completely honest and forthcoming on what I know about the car, because I know it is a big deal buying a car online and I want you to be well informed so you can feel good about your decision to buy this car.

It is my opinion based on several years of experience in the mechanical world and my experience with Mustangs that this car is a solid 7.0-7.5 on a scale of 1-10, with the potential of being an 8-8.5 easily.

The car runs great, sounds great and looks like a 30,000 car but it is not perfect. I will start by listing the major components and what I know about them.

It has front disc brakes,(new) factory 350 engine, power steering, and a 12 bolt rear end. It is a non a.c. car. It is a factory X11 trim code and original V8 car with a blue color (Dusk Blue). Factory black interior.I am not sure if it is a real SS, but it has all the items on it that I know about.

I encourage you to come see this car, but I understand you may not be able to so I will give very detailed descriptions. Please read my terms at the end so we all understand the process and can have some fun buying as well as selling.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME VIA E-MAIL AND I WILL GIVE YOU MY NUMBER AND WE CAN TALK.   d9vid66@yahoo.com

Engine:

 It has a strong running 350 with an HEI distributor, headers, and a Carter AFB carburetor with a Weiland intake. There is no visible smoke or major leaks at this time.  It sounds great and seems to have been built with a higher duration cam. I was told the engine was rebuilt by the previous owner but I do not have the documentation to back that up. I have just had the headers removed and had new perma-torque gaskets installed.

Rear End:

The rear end is in great shape and it is a 12 bolt. I am not sure if it is posi or what the ratio is. It has no leaks and makes no weird noise.

Transmission:

The transmission is a 700R4 4 speed automatic with a Brand New B&M Ratchet shifter. The transmission shifts fantastic and has a nice freeway cruising speed. I took the car to a local reputable transmission shop for an inspection and to make sure that the B&M shifter is adjusted correctly. I was told, and believe that the transmission was rebuilt using high performance parts. It works great and does not leak.

Interior:

The interior is in really nice shape. It does need a headliner and I will have it done if I do not sell it. It has a new carpet and the seats are in great condition. I do not believe that they have been re-upholstered, there are no visible tears or rips that I can see. The dash pad is in great shape and may be new, the lower dash looks like new. It does have an aftermarket din style radio and it works but does not sound all that good. The steering wheel is a wood original style and is new. It has an aftermarket tach, also oil pressure and water temp gauges that work great. All the factory gauges seem to work well, speedo, and gas gauge. The key switch works great but seems a little loose. The heater works well and the floor vents also work well. The Astro vents are a little worn, but I have new ones still in the box that go with the car. The windshield wipers work but the passenger one does not move. Not sure what it is at this time. The doors open and shut well, and I have installed new strikers. It looks like new felts and rubber bumpers and the window rubber looks good. The door panels are in great shape, the rear quarter panels and sill panels are out and I have them and they are in great shape. I may have the headliner put in sometime soon if it does not sell here. With a new headliner and some easy tinkering the interior could be a 9.0 out of 10 or even a 10! It is a factory black trim code.

Exterior:

The exterior of the car is almost perfect! The fenders are new and the doors are nice and straight and appear to have no major filler or obvious bodywork. It has the front chin spoiler as well as the SS rear spoiler. Both quarters have been replaced and it looks great. I was told that the floor pan was also replaced and looks great from inside and underneath the car. The trunk lid shuts perfect and looks great as well as the rear of the car. No body cancer or rust bubbles that I can see. I ran a magnet across the car and it passed my test. The paint is very nice, I will leave that up to your interpretation, but I think it is better than driver quality. It does have flaws but I would not worry about it at all. I will try to take pics of all the little items I can see, but I am not asking 30,000 for this car. The front header panel has a dent in it, but I have a new one that goes with the car. All the trim looks new or very good original. All the glass is in good condition with no cracks or major flaws. It has a steel cowl induction hood that fits and looks great. The paint is a beautiful yellow that has been cut and buffed. All the external lights work well. The front core support looks nice and has no signs of ever being hit. The car has all the Super Sport trim and badges. The grill is perfect. The black vinyl top looks perfect as well does the trim surrounding it.

 

Drivetrain/Brakes Exhaust:

 

I took the car to a reputable shop and had the front brakes done. New master cylinder, new calipers, new and new rotors. They told me that all the suspension parts look NEW! The exhaust is new and it has been lowered about 2” I have purchased the parts to have it brought back to the factory height and If you buy the car and like it low I will leave it but I will give you the parts. $400.00, front and rear springs. If it does not sell I will have it done next week. The wheels are factory rally wheels, 15 X 7 in the front and 15 X 10 in the rear. The rear tires are new and the front are about 50%. Sub-frame connectors to strengthen the body, the appear to be new.

The car is now at the tire shop getting some Cooper raised white letter tires put on it. I will make sure to post the pics as soon as I get it back tomorrow.



I HAVE LOTS OF PICTURES AND I WILL SEND YOU ANYTHING YOU NEED TO HELP MAKE YOUR DECISION TO BUY THIS CAR!


Thank You!

GM's redesigned full-size 2021 SUVs face delay over coronavirus

Tue, Mar 31 2020

As General Motors works to conserve cash for the coronavirus pandemic, the automaker reportedly told suppliers that it is postponing development of several future vehicles. The situation may cause GM to delay the launch of the 2021 Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevrolet Suburban SUVs, which had been planned to roll out in April. The original launch plan for the redesigned full-size SUVs, which are some of the most profitable vehicles produced by GM, had called for production of the current models to end at its plant in Arlington, Texas, this week. After a retooling process, the redesigned SUVs were slated to begin production late in the month of April. In an email to suppliers viewed by Reuters and confirmed as authentic by GM, the automaker also said it was suspending development work on six future vehicle programs, including updates of the Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain, Cadillac XT4, Bolt EV, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM said preproduction work on those programs would be pushed back to calendar year 2021, with most of the updated vehicles scheduled to be launched as 2022 models. According to the Detroit News, work has also been paused on the Chevy Camaro and a future version of the Corvette that has yet to be unveiled and wasn't planned for production during the 2020 calendar year. Last week, the automaker told employees and suppliers it was delaying work on some future vehicles while pushing ahead with near-term models such as its redesigned full-size SUVs and the GMC Hummer EV, Cadillac Lyriq, Chevrolet Bolt EUV and Cruise Origin, as well as its new Ultium battery system. A GM spokesman who spoke with Reuters reiterated on Monday what the automaker had said last week — that the situation with its U.S. plants was "fluid" and that the automaker would "continue to evaluate" whether and when to reopen those plants on a week-by-week basis, with "employee safety" guiding that decision. GM said previously that it was closing most of its U.S. plants indefinitely. In its Monday email, GM asked suppliers to stop work on all pre-production tooling and pre-production parts manufacturing, but also not to dispose of any tooling or materials. GM told Reuters it had solicited volunteers from its workforce to finish the build-out of the current SUVs on a single shift in Arlington.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

GM forced to cut truck production amid semiconductor shortage

Thu, Jul 22 2021

WASHINGTON — General Motors said Wednesday it will cut some truck production in North America because of the ongoing global semiconductor shortage. The largest U.S. automaker said its Flint Assembly plant that builds the Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD trucks will operate on one production shift the week of July 26. GM said its Ft. Wayne Assembly plant in Indiana that builds the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 model trucks will be idled next week. GM's Silao Assembly plant in Mexico that also builds the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Cheyenne (for the Mexico market) and GMC Sierra 1500 will also suspend production next week. All three plants are expected to resume regular production the week of August 2. Related video:
