The car's history: The builder of the car passed on a few years back. The car sat in a barn as an old drag car until sold to a friend of that family. The car went from one barn to the next. I found the car local to me and wanted it to live again. The car before my ownership had new panels put on. This would include quarters, doors, fenders, inner front fender wells and radiator support. The car is a pro street tubbed with monster rear Mickey Thompson Sportsmans. The paint is GM white with candy green sides- looks great in the sun. Starts like easy. The motor: Date code 327, 1968 It has been bored and done with aluminum heads an Edelbrock intake Holley 600. Has billet pulleys. The rear: Ford nine inch with 10 and a half inch drums. Posi unit with gears that feel to me like 456's as my best guess. The transmission: Automatic on the floor however has 4 speed pedals. Has a stall I would guess again around 3000- 3500. What I do know is all the new I put in and it runs in the thousands. I have a stack of receipts less than 90 days old to prove this. New: Both front and rear bumpers: This includes the entire grill assembly and license plate holder and emblems. Weld rims front and rear with new front tires. Most all the front suspension and bushings. ball joints and springs. tie rods and links. Steering was tired so I replaced the steering box and rag joint. Nice tight steer no walk around issues. The brakes were tired: New master cylinder proportioning valve and rear wheel cylinders. Disc brake front, Some brake lines. Fronts are braided lines. The engine: I replaced the thermostat and installed an electric fan which works on start up. I installed a radiator catch can. The ignition is all new MSD. Coil cap rotor wires plugs. The trans: Had a leaky gasket so new pan gasket and screen. Fresh trans fluid. The interior: The interior was worse for wear and had a 8 point roll cage. I'm older so the side bars were cut out immediately. I have them if your heart desires climbing a cage to get in. The rest of the cage is in. I replaced both door panels, arm rest and both door handles and all four window cranks. Although being tubbed the rears are for show. I replaced the carpet and installed a radio delete panel to clean up the dash. New glove box and lock. All inner wind lace, side and front and rear headliner trim. This includes the headliner and visors and rear view mirror, roll bar padding. Door sills. I also went through the inner door window cranks. Doors open close like new and windows up down smooth. The car originally had tunnel ram, Since the change I bought a new firebird 400 hood and had it painted to match. The firewall was smoothed has no heater and looks really great. I planned to replace the windshield it has a stone chip not a crack. And a wiper scratch. I did not do this change but planned for it. So I will include new windshield stainless molding for the new owner and new clips. Everything I mentioned that I had changed is brand new parts no swap meet crap! Most of it from classic industries.
This car reserve is extremely fair and would not even come close to what you see right now. It is less than my investment. I am listing the car as an on going project: This was an old drag car that I have brought back to more of a pro street. If I finish the minor details the reserve next time will be much higher and realistic. What it needs: Seat belts, Seats bolted in, Wiper blades, Maybe a windshield if you're picky. If you want to do any long trips a more street friendly stall converter. The car was updated with painless wiring and everything worked. Somehow I lost the tail lights? There is power already back there as that is where the battery is located and electric fuel pump. This will be easy. Paint is older but looks nice and shines great. It does have a couple bubbles coming very low behind drivers door to be expected of a barn find but nothing crazy still a great cruise night pro street. (easily) Floors are great with no issues same as the frame. The frame is tied front to rear. I believe the trans dip stick is too long so when full to the line it leaks in reverse after a couple runs it stops? However everyone who owns a small block knows they need to be driven. I only drove the car down my street and back a couple times before all the new changes, so very little drive time since I have owned it. This is a heck of a lot of car for the money and you could not do this for my reserve. This car is so worthy of the next level. I couldn't let it lay in a barn somewhere and I hope it goes to a great home. Paper work is in my name and current. Clear transferrable registration. This is what New York uses as titles for 1970 or older cars. I sold cars all over the world with no issues. Again, car is being listed as an on going project in as is condition.
I HAVE A 1969 DODGE CHARGER ON EBAY AS WELL, CARS CAN BE SOLD OUTSIDE EBAY AT ANY TIME UNLESS RESERVES ARE MET. DO NOT WAIT TO BID.
Good luck and happy new year.

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice
Wed, Sep 4 2019The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.

2020 Porsche 911 Speedster spied with an angry driver
Wed, Feb 13 2019Porsche gave us details and showed us a concept of the 911 Speedster at the Paris Motor Show. Today, we bring you spy shots of what appears to be the production version of that concept with a few changes on board. They're rather minimal modifications, but the Speedster's driver appears especially angry with our spy photographer as he extends his middle finger directly toward the camera. Sorry, not sorry, Mr. Test Driver. Public testing of pre-production cars always comes with photo risks, and Porsches tend to attract more attention than others. You'll notice what appears to be a Cayenne Coupe prototype we've previously spotted running around with the 911. The Speedster Concept we saw in Paris had epic retro mirrors and fuel cap on the front hood, but both those design touches are absent from this pre-production car. It's tougher to see, but we lost the vents in between the two humps, as well. Everything else appears to have made it to production-spec. We can't say we're surprised these concept car features probably won't show up on the production car, but it is a tad deflating. You'll notice the Speedster is based-off the 991.2 generation of 911 and not the new 992. Porsche did a similar thing when the 997 generation was coming to an end with a Speedster model paying tribute to that car's life. The chassis is said to utilize parts from the 911 GT3, and the wonderful naturally aspirated flat-six engine gets carried over from that car, too. Porsche didn't specify if power will be exactly the same as the GT3, but we'll be expecting about 500 horsepower and a 9,000 rpm redline. We were told the six-speed manual would be offered on the Speedster in Paris, too. Let's just say that we strongly approve of that combination. Production will be limited to only 1,948 cars and begin in the first half of this year. We'll expect a reveal with a full spec breakdown soon, possibly for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.

Porsche Syberia RS rally car is what you make when you need a Hummer that's fast
Fri, Apr 24 2020Some history: The Porsche 911's first-ever race was the 1965 Monte Carlo rally, entered because Porsche's PR man at the time wanted to show how much the future icon could do. A year later, Porsche began selling an optional rally kit for the 911 that included Recaro seats, a roll bar, and adjustable Koni dampers. Porsche produced factory rally racers until the early 1970s, winning Monte Carlo three times in a row before letting privateers carry the torch so the factory could focus on campaigning in the East Africa Safari. After years of painful lessons, when Porsche took its brand-new 1978 911 SC to the safari, the 3.0-liter flat-six coupe was hours away from winning the race before damaging the suspension, demoting the car to second place. Porsche fans wanted their own replicas, and finding the new 911 to be an affordable option, the SC — built from 1978 to 1983 — went from denoting "Super Carrera" to "Safari Car."  Porsche took a big step up in with the 953 rally car. Built to win the 1984 Paris-Dakar, which it did, the 953 introduced the four-wheel-drive system Porsche would evolve for the 959 in 1985 and the 964-series 911 in 1989, as well as the now-unforgettable 911-based Rothmans livery. All of this is what's fueling today's 911 Safari Car revival around the world. Almost all of today's builds start with the so-called G Model 911s, produced from 1973 to 1989, usually focusing on the SC and the Carrera that ran from 1984 until 1989. Fast forward to 2007 when a mysterious crew organized the TransSyberia Rally, a "sports-touring" event that stretched 4,500 miles from Moscow to the capital of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar. Of the 34 vehicles that entered, 25 were Porsche's purpose-built Cayenne S Transsyberia Edition. Put this all in a pot and you have the beginnings of the car that brings us here, the Syberia RS. It's said that a German fellow by the name of Kai Burkhard wanted to buy a Humvee, but the low top speed, around 50 miles per hour, put him off. So instead, he imported a 1986 911 "in collector condition" from Japan with the idea of rebuilding it to provide almost all the off-road fun he could have had in the H1. Burkhard tapped the Tailor Made department at German suspension designer H&R, and the two set to work creating a build like the 953 Dakar winner. This content is hosted by a third party.
