1967 Chevrolet Camaro Ss (clone) on 2040-cars
Trinidad, Texas, United States
VIN: 12377N 192442
This beautiful Camaro started its life out as a 1967 Camaro. Somewhere along its journey someone took a lot of
time and effort to clone it into an SS, as the pictures demonstrate. When I purchased this car 2016, I truly had
no business buying the car as I do not know anything about cars but I had always wanted this car since I was
probably 14 years old (about 30years ago).
All work performed on the car during my ownership was done100% by a place in Houston called J&T Automotive (you can
look them up if needed). I will provide, if needed, all the invoices of repairs to substantiate what I write in
this listing also, if needed.
When I purchased this car the previous owner’s listing stated: "along the course of the vehicle’s life the gear
ratio was tweaked to give the car a quicker line start. It does have a posi-traction rear axle. It is a 3-speed
automatic that has a Muncie shifter. The last owner also installed a jack/plug for hooking the stereo to an iPod.
Two speakers were installed behind the back seat (and can be seen in the pictures). An A/C system was installed
along the way that is also fully functional as is the heater. Also installed was power steering, additional
instrument cluster that includes battery, oil pressure and engine temperature. He also installed new bucket seats,
floor carpeting and new door panels. Lastly, he said that the engine. A small block V8 that was originally a 350
bored out to a 402 replaced the original V6."
The exhaust system sounds strong – menacing. The vehicle has electric hideaway lights that are fully
operational. The car has powerdisc brakes, tubular control arms, leaf springs, an after-market radio that looks
old school retro AM until you turn it on and it becomes a digital AM/FM stereo.
A lot of work has been done on the engine/transmission, just short of ripping the drive-train out for a full
restoration:
Windows were tinted to darkest street legal in Texas
Fuel gauge replaced with a working original model
Parasitic Draw Test and Electrical Diagnosis. Electrical short(s) were repaired.
Installed new coolant temperature sensor and fan relay. Wiring loop and circuit performed
1967 Shock Plate Set, non-staggered, Pair LH and RH installed
Starter Motor replaced
HVAC system diagnosis/service/recharged with refrigerant with fluorescent dye. Leak found. Repaired.
Larger cooling system fans installed
Sealed beam headlights replaced
Door latches all replaced. Doors latches and locks operate perfectly
Light switch replaced
Circuit board for cluster replaced
Charging system alternator replaced
Battery tender installed top post battery
Steering wheel horn cap replaced, horn high note, horn low note both replaced
Power steering pump replaced
Engine oil pan gasket replaced
Motor oil filter replaced
Engine rear main seal replaced
Transmission removed, all external gaskets and seals replaced
Power steering line replaced
Speed sensor O-ring replaced
Tail shaft seal replaced
Oil pressure switch replaced
Fan control replaced
Dimmer switch wiring repaired and replaced
Fuel gauge sender replaced
Leaf spring bushing kit installed
Leaf spring pad kit installed
Suspension bump stop kit installed
Shock absorbers replaced and installed
Lift shackle kit installed
Dual radiator fan assembly installed
Brake lights replaced
Wiper blades removed and replaced
Fuel tank cleaned and lines flushed
Spark plugs replaced
Edelbrock carburetor, electric choke, and CHL PCV replaced
Edelbrock throttle linkage kit installed
Edelbrock throttle body flange installed
Carburetor throttle cable bracket installed
Carburetor return spring bracket installed
The car is in great shape. During the suspension redo, I had a small lift added to the rear and added larger tires
in the rear, which gives it an absolutely predator stance. Mechanical is in great shape; engine will start on the
first turn. The car drives amazingly well for a car that is approximately 54 years old. All the seat belts are in
place and work accordingly. Front seats fold down easily giving access to the rear seat. The only thing that I
can say is wrong with car at this point is the drivers side window does not close perfectly at the top rear against
the rear window.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
