1969 Chevrolet Camaro Resto-mod on 2040-cars
Union Springs, Alabama, United States
It's a beautifully restored 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. The previous owner did a full frame off restoration and its
beautiful. It was solid silver when I bought it and just recently I had the rally stripes painted on the car. So
most everything on the top of the car was painted about 3 months ago and there are very few, if any flaws. I'd rate
the paint probably an 8 out of 10... maybe a little higher
The engine runs great and the 4-speed muncie M22 was just rebuilt and pulls hard. I will list a few highlights
below.
*Chevy 355 with mild 350hp , Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake, mild cam and Edelbrock carb
*Muncie M22 4-speed recently rebuilt with documentation
*TKO shifter
*3.73 gears in a 10 bolt rear end
*SSBC 4 Wheel Disc Brake conversion
*Push button start hidden under dash
*Flowmaster Super 44 with H-pipe (Sounds amazing)
*All rubber bushings replaced with Polyurethane (frame, body, control arms, engine mounts)
*March Pulleys and serpentine belt
*Heater box completely rebuilt
*Flaming River tilt steering column
*Flaming River one piece machined steering wheel ( Steering wheel is removable)
*Covans Carbon Fiber gauge cluster
*Auto Meter Ultra Light gauges
*H4 Headlight conversion
*All new sounds deadening through-out on build
*All new window/door seals/rubber, new glass and new upper and lower door hinges
*Billet Specialties billet black anodized hood hinges, trunk hinges, and fender braces
*Fesler billet black anodized 3D taillights
*Digitails rear LED taillight conversion
*Black A4 race seats with slide and recline adjustment
*Sparco 4 point harness
*All new OE wiring front to back including new factory fuse box
*Hotchks lowering springs and lowering leafs and new KYB shocks
* Billet Specialties Laguna wheels 18x8 front and 19x10 Almost brand new! Less than 500 miles
* Bridgestone Pole position tires 225/25/18 front 275/35/19 rear Less than 500 miles
* Body was media blasted, epoxy primed and then a 2 stage PPG base/clear
*New Optima yellow top battery
*2 Diamond 6x9 rears, two Diamond 6x9 stock front locations
*Eclipse XA5000 5 channel amp
*Alpine single 10" enclosure
The car is in excellent shape and pictures won't do this thing justice i'm sure. It has always been garage kept and
babied. The previous owner rarely drove the car, but i've definitely driven it and enjoyed it and wouldn't be
afraid to take it anywhere.

With only 246 Volts sold in Australia, Holden not getting next-gen model
Tue, Apr 28 2015The Chevrolet Volt has not been the resounding success General Motors hoped for here in the United States. But it's fortunes in Chevy's home country are nothing compared to how poorly it's done down under. Only 246 Volts have been sold in Australia, where the car is branded as a Holden, since its debut in 2012. That's not just a bad showing – it's an absolute disaster. According to Motoring.com.au, it was the Volt's astonishing $60,000 price tag, combined with a lack of interest from Aussie drivers, that killed the car's chances. What's fascinating about this development, though, is that it doesn't necessarily seem to be Holden that's pulling the plug. Instead, it's the Volt's Hamtramck, MI factory, which is preparing to shift into production of the second-generation model that seems to be taking the blame. According to Motoring, the plant confirmed that it will only build the Gen 2 plug-in in left-hand-drive form, basically ruling out a model for Australia. "Electric and hybrid vehicles haven't taken off in Australia," Holden's director of communications, Sean Poppitt, told Motoring. "Considering the lack of infrastructure, the lack of government incentives, the large distances between cities, it's a tough sell." The death of the right-hand drive Volt won't be the only loss of business in Hamtramck. Opel has already confirmed that it will drop the plug-in's European fraternal twin, the Ampera, while the next-gen Chevy won't make the trip across the pond either. Related Video:
Junkyard Gem: 1987 Chevrolet Turbo Sprint
Sun, Feb 6 2022Fifteen years ago, I wrote my first-ever automotive article under the name Murilee Martin, and it didn't take me long to start writing about one of my favorite automotive subjects: the junkyard. Before I'd refined my system for documenting discarded vehicles, however, I shot a lot of boneyard photos that never got used. For today's Junkyard Gem, I have four shots from early 2007 of one of the rarest turbocharged machines of the 1980s: the Chevrolet Turbo Sprint. The Chevrolet Sprint was really a rebadged Suzuki Cultus, from the pre-Geo era when General Motors sold the Isuzu Gemini as the Chevrolet Spectrum, the Daewoo LeMans as the Pontiac LeMans and the Toyota Corolla as the Chevrolet Nova (soon enough, the Spectrum became a Geo, and the Nova became the Prizm). The second-generation Cultus appeared in 1988, becoming the Geo Metro on our shores the following year. The Turbo Sprint was available for just the last two years of the Sprint's 1985-1988 American sales run, and it appears that just a couple of thousand were sold; if I'd known at the time just how rare they were, I'd have shot more photos of this one at the now-defunct Hayward Pick Your Part. The turbocharged 993cc three-cylinder produced 70 horsepower, 22 better than the naturally-aspirated version. Since the Turbo Sprint weighed just 1,620 pounds (that's about 500 pounds lighter than a barely more powerful '22 Mitsusbishi Mirage), it was plenty of fun to drive. For 1988, the regular Sprint hatchback cost $6,380 while the Turbo Sprint listed at $8,240 (that's about $15,375 and $19,855 today, respectively). Believe it or not, a Turbo Sprint actually raced in the 24 Hours of Lemons 10 years ago, though it didn't end well. This ad is for the regular Cultus, not the Cultus Turbo, but the screaming guitars sound reasonably turbocharged. For the most part, Chevy Sprint marketing was all about cheap purchase price and stingy fuel economy… at a time when gasoline prices were cratering. Related Video:
GM reworking mandatory OnStar plans for some 2024 models
Tue, Mar 21 2023For the 2023 model year, GM added its OnStar and Connected Services plan as standard equipment to a large number of Buick, GMC, and Chevrolet vehicles. Folding the $1,500 retail price into the MSRPs of models like the GMC Acadia and Buick Encore plumped up prices beyond the usual year-on-year bumps. Looks like there's a reversal in play for 2024, GM Authority reporting that many of the models fitted with OnStar and Connected Services — now called OnStar Premium — will step down to three years of OnStar Remote Access standard.  OnStar Remote Access comes with these features: Remote key fob, vehicle locate, and remote personalization through mobile and in-vehicle apps. Three additional features can be added to the plan: OnStar Guardian, in-vehicle hotspot, and Super Cruise. Owners can also upgrade to OnStar Premium if they choose. Higher trims like Buick's Avenir and GMC's Denali, plus the GMC Hummer and the Cadillac Escalade will retain OnStar Premium as standard equipment. That suite starts with Remote Access and adds: Automatic crash response, stolen vehicle assistance and recovery, OnStar Guardian, in-vehicle app access, unlimited streaming, three years of Super Cruise on vehicles with the hardware, and six months of SiriusXM radio. The Escalade puts a cherry on top with three years Sirius XM instead of six months. The Remote Access plan normally charges $14.99 per month. We're not sure yet if GM will subtract the cost of OnStar Premium from the MSRP and add the $540 for OnStar Remote Access, or if the trial period comes free of charge. Even if that's what happens, the change could take nearly $1,000 off the MSRP of a car like the GMC Acadia before any 2024 increases. We'll know more as the 2024MY models roll out and prices are announced. Related Video 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir revealed
