Condition

The camaro was stripped down to its components parts and taken to Metal Finishing Services in Jackson, MS where all body and frame parts were dipped to
remove ALL rust and then e-coated. There is no hidden rust on this vehicle. This service alone costs $4,000.

All body panels are in very good shape except for the shell. The shell needs extensive work to be ready for painting. Mainly replacement sections of
the floor pan, trunk bottom, and around the back glass. The shell has also had replacement rear quarterpanels previously installed. The induction hood has a
small raised 1/4 ” section that will need to be smoothed out. Please note that the shell does not have a trim tag.

The frame was also stripped and e-coated. It is in excellent condition.

The cast steel control arms need recoating but are otherwise in good shape, but the rest of the suspension components will probably need replacing. I do have
the tie rods, and probably the rear leaf springs if desired.

The dash and console pieces are all intact, but I am unsure if they are functioning. This includes AC controls and dash instruments.

The front and rear seats are dusty but upholstered without cuts.

The door innards (cranks and such) are all there, including the door knobs and locks.

The rear axle assembly and driveshaft will need to be sandblasted and recoated.

Additional pictures are available upon request. Keep in mind all body pieces except for the shell are wrapped in adhesive backed bubble wrap which would have
to be destroyed, which I am hesitant to do outside of a serious offer on the vehicle.

You will want to bring a big trailer to pick this up. It's about 3 crates full of stuff plus the frame, shell, and all body panels.

Payment:

Reserve is $4,000 firm. $500 paypal deposit within 48 hours. This is non-refundable.  If the deposit is not placed, I will contact the next buyer in line.  Serious buyers ONLY. It is not my fault if you didn’t read or request additional pictures. The remaining payment is to be made in full at time of pickup.

No trades.

Additional pictures can be found at the link below. They are BIG, about 5 MB per. It's a sampling of the major components in the 3 crates o' stuff.


Here you can see pictures of:

Front grill
windshield wipers
glove box
various hood / door hinges.
headers
seats front and back
front and rear light covers
steering column
Hardware labeled in zip lock bags
Radiator support bracket
brake mounting bracket + brake
Rear axle assembly + housing + drum brakes
Shocks & mounts
Gas tank
Rear leaf springs & mounting brackets
Front control arms upper and lower
Knuckles that went with them.
As you can see they are in various states of condition. If you want more pictures, just send me a message and I'll get more detail for you.

Edit. The rear spoiler was not e-coated as I believe it's made out of some kind of fiberglass?

To re-iterate and answer a few questions I've received from my previous auction ...

The body panels and frame were submerged and e-coated. This is not similar to media blasting. This is much more in-depth and expensive; Simply, it doesn't
get any better. Taken from Metal Finishing Service's website:

Metal Finishing Services uses non-destructive thermal and chemical processes to remove paint or other coatings from metal surfaces. We can handle parts
ranging in size from small fasteners to 10 tons and 20' long. Customers include manufactures, equipment rebuilders, engine overhaul shops, antique car
restorers, contractors and many others.

Rust Removal Services

Metal Finishing Service uses a non-destructive alkaline electro-chemical derusting process. No metal loss or hydrogen embrittlement results, unlike processes
using acids or abrasive cleaning. Parts up to 20' feet long and 10 tons can be handled.
For manufacturers, parts rejected by quality control due to rust are derusted.

exchangers.
We are able to derust badly rusted sheet metal parts for car restorers without causing further damage. We even do work for museums.
Electrocoating Services
Metal Finishing Services provides electrocoating (E-Coating) on parts as a primer. This is an immersion process where parts are placed in a bath and an
electrical voltage is used to attract the paint to all areas of a part, including inaccessible areas such as the inside of pipes. A black cathodic epoxy coating is
used which is identical to the process used by most auto manufacturers. Prior to E-coating a zinc phosphate coating is applied
E-Coating is compatible with any finish coat, including powder coatings or solvent based paints. It provides superior corrosion protection , especially when
followed by a powder coat topcoat.
Typical applications include auto bodies , frames and misc. parts, outdoor furniture, oilfield equipment , marine applications and any thing requiring superior
corrosion resistance.
E-coating services are provided for manufacturers, auto restorers, equipment rebuilders and others.

Chevy Silverado gets star-studded treatment at SEMA

Tue, Nov 3 2015

Chevrolet has quite a presence ready for the 2015 SEMA Show, including custom takes on the Camaro and Spark. As one of the company's most popular models, the Silverado isn't left out of the fun, either, thanks to a trio of concepts to highlight what's possible for the aftermarket event. Camouflage is supposed to blend in, but the naval-inspired, Razzle Dazzle design on the Silverado Special Ops Concept should make the truck pop under the lights at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Based on a Silverado 1500 Z71, the pickup is conceived as a "rescue vehicle special-operations forces." To get behind enemy lines, it packs extra LED lighting, wheel flares for off-road tires, and a GearOn utility rack in the bed. Plus to help get away, Chevy Performance fits an air intake, exhaust kit, and concept six-piston brakes. The Silverado Realtree Bone Collector Concept (above) also wears camo for SEMA, but it's for enjoying the outdoors rather than getting out of battle. Camouflage company Realtree and The Bone Collector host Michael Waddell help with the design for this custom truck that features 22-inch black wheels, a front push bar, LED light bar, and assist steps all from Chevy Accessories. With leather upholstery, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto inside, the drive to and from the woods should be comfortable, as well. The Silverado 3500HD Kid Rock Concept rounds out this trio and features patriotic styling from the eponymous rock star. "I wanted the design for the truck to be bold, but with features and elements that wouldn't be out of reach for working-class guys," he said about the design, and Kid Rock even visited the factory in Flint, MI, to meet members from UAW Local 598 for some inspiration. The result features a custom chrome grille with a Born Free logo and chrome exhaust stacks. For added excitement, two Gibbs Sports Quadskis are hooked up on the trailer behind it.

It is based on the Silverado 1500 Z71, which features a new front-end design and new technologies built into its strong, high-strength steel body structure and fully boxed frame, and draws its design inspiration from naval design aesthetics.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and EV Buyer's Guide: Which one do you want?

Fri, Nov 10 2017

If you're shopping for a new vehicle these days, there's a litany of acronyms, buzzwords, and technobabble to further complicate an already difficult decision. But if you're looking at a green powertrain, you have three basic choices to compare: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and "EV" or, electric vehicle. So what are they and which one — if any — is right for you? Research your next new vehicle using Autoblog's Car Finder. Gasoline-Electric Hybrids By now, most people are familiar with the concept of a hybrid car. Thank Toyota's Prius for that. At its most basic, a hybrid vehicle has two powertrains, one gasoline and one electric, which work together for maximum efficiency. At low speeds, the engine can shut off entirely, relying solely on the battery for propulsion. The battery is either charged as you drive by converting kinetic energy into potential energy via a complex regenerative braking system, or directly off of the gas motor. This is a very hands-off, behind-the-scenes system as all the driver has to is put in gas and drive as normal. Hybrids come in all shapes and sizes and, according to the EPA, range in fuel economy from 58 mpg for the Hyundai Ioniq Blue all the way down to 13 mpg for the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta. Best For: Anyone who want to see their fuel consumption go down without many sacrifices. You can easily find a hybrid sedan, hatchback, crossover, SUV or even a pickup truck (i f you can find one). Best of all, a hybrid requires no special equipment to be installed at home, or added work for the driver. Hybrids do cost more than traditionally-powered competitors, so make sure to compare projected fuel savings with how much extra a hybrid will cost – it may take a surprisingly long time to break even. The EPA provides a handy calculator for this very purpose. Our Favorite Hybrids: 2017 Toyota Prius 2018 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Plug-In Hybrids Sometimes referred to as a PHEV, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, this is a baby-step towards full electrification. Armed with a much larger battery pack than a hybrid, PHEVs can go between 12 ( Mercedes-Benz GLE550e) and 97 ( BMW i3 w/Range Extender) miles on electricity alone depending on the model and your driving style. Like a normal hybrid, the driver is largely unaware of which power source is currently in use, even as they switch over — either because the battery is drained, or the driving circumstances require more power.
