Hudson, New York, United States

1971 Original Rally Sport Camaro.  I bought this about a year ago and planned on restoring it, but plans have changed.  Motor is a 350 2bbl originally, and now has a weiand intake and Holley 4bbl that could use a rebuild.  Also has the original TH350 transmission. All this was explained to me form the previous buyer.  Motor had a valve issue the last owner said.  He bought a set of remanufactured DART 400 heads (cast iron) replaced the originals and the 2bbl intake with a 4bbl and drove it for 1 year in early 2002.  Car then was in dry storage until I bought it a year ago, and hadn't ran for a couple years.  I syphoned all the bad gas out did a couple oil changes, new fuel pump, plugs, and filters and got it to run.  It runs good, but it needs to be gone through before driving.  I would put new tires on it, and double check the brakes (There are no leaks and peddle is firm, but I haven't looked at them.  Shifter needs a new cable, due to it being a little sloppy but it shifted in all gears when I drove it to where it is stored now.  (Approx 2 miles) None of the electrical has been butchered and the EEC is still present under the hood.

 

Info I received on the car.  This car was restored in the late 90s with half quarters, and a driver’s door.  The interior was changed then from sandalwood to the black you see in the pictures.  Original color of the car is code 62 Burnt Orange, which you can still see on the inner and outer rocker pic that I posted.  The interior is code 777 Sandalwood interior, and the vinyl top was Code F brown originally.  The original rally sport steering wheel is present and in great shape, the dash and staple shifter trim is wood grain.  The gauge carrier tabs are broken and I have a new OER piece that goes with the car.  The past owner as I stated had it in dry storage with the windows open, as well as the hood and trunk to keep moisture out.

 

The body work is coming through where the half quarters were put on as you can see in the pictures.  The floors are original and solid, along with the rockers, front fenders, doors, hood, and radiator support are all good.  The battery tray is gone and the portion of the inner fender under the battery tray is rusted, the trunk lid has a spot in the driver side corner that is rusted as well.  The trunk pan right in the center is a little rusty and has pin holes.  The vinyl top is in good shape with no tears, the windshield and rear window do not leak and the channels are not rusted.  The windshield does have a crack and would need to be replaced, the rest of the glass is fine.

 

Lights all worked except the low beams.  The dash lights worked, and the heat blows.  This is a really really good solid platform for a quick resto, or tune it up for cruising this year as it is.  Color combo is awesome with the white interior.  All and All great chance to own a Rally Sport Camaro.

 

Besides the gauge carrier that goes with the car, and the original heads and 2bbl carb and intake manifold.  I also have a new Goodmark outer rear wheel house that I received in a load of parts.  Also a couple of brand new factory assembly manuals as well.

 

This is a New York car and comes with a Transferable Registration only as titles were not issued for car of this age here in NY.  A bill of sale will come as well.

I am away during the week and it will be hard for me to answer any questions.  Car is being sold as is and will need to be trailered home.  If you are the winning bidder email me with your phone number and I will be able to call you on Friday around 5 Eastern Standard Time.

 

Good Luck and happy bidding.

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
