1981 Chevy Camaro Z28 Clone, Convertible! Coach Conversion 350 V8 A/t No Reserve on 2040-cars
Elizabethtown, Kentucky, United States
|
For Sale and at absolutely no reserve starting at ONE PENNY and selling to the highest bidder in a 5 day auction. An 1981 Chevy Camaro CONVERTIBLE!!! You may be saying to yourself, "They didn't make a convertible in 1981." You are CORRECT. BUT, a coach conversion company (possibly NCE/National Coach Engineering in Michigan) bought these cars from the factory.
According to the VIN, this car started out life as a 3.8L V6 Coupe. It was converted to a Z28 clone convertible along with an engine switch to a 350 V8 with a four barrel carburetor and functioning ram air hood. Raised white letter tires with matching painted wheels. Single exhaust into one then back out to duals. I removed the muffler and put in a piece of pipe. it has a nice rumble to it but nothing obnoxious as there is still a catalytic converter on it. It has an automatic transmission, (350 Turbo) and a B&M Quick Silver shifter. It has a gray tweed interior that is in good condition. Comes equipped with A/C but no guarantees. I'm not going to tell you, "All it needs is a recharge." (We've all heard that one before!) The car runs very well and I get thumbs up wherever I go. I replaced the yellowed and cracked back plastic window. Now it is nice and clear and flexible! Looks super. The roof (non power) is serviceable/useable and I have shown the areas that have been patched in the pictures. I always get the super sized photos and you can magnify each one for greater detail. I highlighted the nicks and paint issues where possible to show the accurate condition of the car. I have had the top down for a few weeks covered with the boot so the pics show the top as a bit wrinkled. I put it back down after pics. The car is and has been in a garage. The hood is a little more red than the fenders so there must have been a repaint in the past. Bumpers and nose piece are a bit faded. The detail really did a lot for the look of the car and it really shines! As this is a 5 day auction, if you would like to talk about the car, send me a message through this auction along with your phone number and I'll call. The car should make it on a longer trip, but if you need help in getting it to you, I have a car hauler and will deliver up to 500 miles for $1.00 per loaded mile. Any further and we'll need to talk. Good luck in the auction and feel free to email and talk. |

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The 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.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
