Up for sale is a very nice affordable 1969 Camaro.

X11D80 Trim code   D80 - Air Spoiler Equipment (when used not all cars built with spoilers were coded)

I recently acquired the car and it is a means to an end for me because I am saving to buy a fastback Mustang or 68-69 Chevelle. There has been a lot of time and money put into this car, it has many new parts and it is very close to being a high dollar car.

I have a reasonable reserve on the car, and whomever buys it will always be able to get there investment back. And with some work there is much potential to profit if that is what you want.

I am going to be completely honest and forthcoming on what I know about the car, because I know it is a big deal buying a car online and I want you to be well informed so you can feel good about your decision to buy this car.

It is my opinion based on several years of experience in the mechanical world and my experience with Mustangs that this car is a solid 7.0-7.5 on a scale of 1-10, with the potential of being an 8-8.5 easily.

The car runs great, sounds great and looks like a 30,000 car but it is not perfect. I will start by listing the major components and what I know about them.

It has front disc brakes,(new) factory 350 engine, power steering, and a 12 bolt rear end. It is a non a.c. car. It is a factory X11 trim code and original V8 car with a blue color (Dusk Blue). Factory black interior.I am not sure if it is a real SS, but it has all the items on it that I know about.

I encourage you to come see this car, but I understand you may not be able to so I will give very detailed descriptions. Please read my terms at the end so we all understand the process and can have some fun buying as well as selling.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME VIA E-MAIL AND I WILL GIVE YOU MY NUMBER AND WE CAN TALK.   d9vid66@yahoo.com

Engine:

 It has a strong running 350 with an HEI distributor, headers, and a Carter AFB carburetor with a Weiland intake. There is no visible smoke or major leaks at this time.  It sounds great and seems to have been built with a higher duration cam. I was told the engine was rebuilt by the previous owner but I do not have the documentation to back that up. I have just had the headers removed and had new perma-torque gaskets installed.

Rear End:

The rear end is in great shape and it is a 12 bolt. I am not sure if it is posi or what the ratio is. It has no leaks and makes no weird noise.

Transmission:

The transmission is a 700R4 4 speed automatic with a Brand New B&M Ratchet shifter. The transmission shifts fantastic and has a nice freeway cruising speed. I took the car to a local reputable transmission shop for an inspection and to make sure that the B&M shifter is adjusted correctly. I was told, and believe that the transmission was rebuilt using high performance parts. It works great and does not leak.

Interior:

The interior is in really nice shape. It does need a headliner and I will have it done if I do not sell it. It has a new carpet and the seats are in great condition. I do not believe that they have been re-upholstered, there are no visible tears or rips that I can see. The dash pad is in great shape and may be new, the lower dash looks like new. It does have an aftermarket din style radio and it works but does not sound all that good. The steering wheel is a wood original style and is new. It has an aftermarket tach, also oil pressure and water temp gauges that work great. All the factory gauges seem to work well, speedo, and gas gauge. The key switch works great but seems a little loose. The heater works well and the floor vents also work well. The Astro vents are a little worn, but I have new ones still in the box that go with the car. The windshield wipers work but the passenger one does not move. Not sure what it is at this time. The doors open and shut well, and I have installed new strikers. It looks like new felts and rubber bumpers and the window rubber looks good. The door panels are in great shape, the rear quarter panels and sill panels are out and I have them and they are in great shape. I may have the headliner put in sometime soon if it does not sell here. With a new headliner and some easy tinkering the interior could be a 9.0 out of 10 or even a 10! It is a factory black trim code.

Exterior:

The exterior of the car is almost perfect! The fenders are new and the doors are nice and straight and appear to have no major filler or obvious bodywork. It has the front chin spoiler as well as the SS rear spoiler. Both quarters have been replaced and it looks great. I was told that the floor pan was also replaced and looks great from inside and underneath the car. The trunk lid shuts perfect and looks great as well as the rear of the car. No body cancer or rust bubbles that I can see. I ran a magnet across the car and it passed my test. The paint is very nice, I will leave that up to your interpretation, but I think it is better than driver quality. It does have flaws but I would not worry about it at all. I will try to take pics of all the little items I can see, but I am not asking 30,000 for this car. The front header panel has a dent in it, but I have a new one that goes with the car. All the trim looks new or very good original. All the glass is in good condition with no cracks or major flaws. It has a steel cowl induction hood that fits and looks great. The paint is a beautiful yellow that has been cut and buffed. All the external lights work well. The front core support looks nice and has no signs of ever being hit. The car has all the Super Sport trim and badges. The grill is perfect. The black vinyl top looks perfect as well does the trim surrounding it.

 

Drivetrain/Brakes Exhaust:

 

I took the car to a reputable shop and had the front brakes done. New master cylinder, new calipers, new and new rotors. They told me that all the suspension parts look NEW! The exhaust is new and it has been lowered about 2” I have purchased the parts to have it brought back to the factory height and If you buy the car and like it low I will leave it but I will give you the parts. $400.00, front and rear springs. If it does not sell I will have it done next week. The wheels are factory rally wheels, 15 X 7 in the front and 15 X 10 in the rear. The rear tires are new and the front are about 50%. Sub-frame connectors to strengthen the body, the appear to be new.

The car is now at the tire shop getting some Cooper raised white letter tires put on it. I will make sure to post the pics as soon as I get it back tomorrow.



I HAVE LOTS OF PICTURES AND I WILL SEND YOU ANYTHING YOU NEED TO HELP MAKE YOUR DECISION TO BUY THIS CAR!


Thank You!

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon

Thu, Sep 22 2022

If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

Here are all the EVs with 800V charging available in 2024

Fri, May 31 2024

As technology advances, electric cars are improving their fast-charging times. That means less time spent waiting at a DC public charger when you’re out on the road. While Level 3 chargers used to provide a maximum of 150 kilowatts of power, 350-kW chargers are become more common, making for super-fast charging Â… if your car is capable of taking advantage of it. So how do automakers improve the charging speed of their EV batteries? Some are turning to higher voltage, specifically 800V charging. What's the difference between 800-volt charging and 400-volt charging? So how does 800V charging improve upon the more common 400V EVs? Put simply, the higher the voltage, the less amperage (current) it requires to charge. In other words, with more voltage, you get more wattage (power, aka charge rate) from the same amperage (current). 800V architecture is also more efficient, with less electrical resistance, so it can use thinner cables and smaller, lighter components while needing less cooling. The tradeoff is that it is more costly, and guess who that cost gets passed on to. While automakers don't break down their pricing to show how much more you're paying for that 800V system, you'll just have to evaluate any potential purchases as a whole, and make your decision based on overall pricing of the vehicle. Thankfully, the 800V EVs on sale now are generally ones we like. Now, 800V charging capability doesn't necessarily mean an EV has 800V vehicle architecture. For instance, the GMC Hummer EV and Chevy Silverado EV operate at 400V, but with their dual battery packs, can switch to 800V when charging by temporarily connecting those packs in series. Currently, there are only a handful of EVs available with 800V charging. But if you are going to find yourself taking longer trips in your EV and using DC fast chargers more often, you might want to consider choosing one with this faster charging capability. With that in mind, these are the EVs available with 800V charging, either on sale now or coming in 2024. 800-volt EVs available in 2024 Audi E-Tron GT Chevrolet Silverado EV Genesis GV60 Genesis Electrified G80 Genesis Electrified GV70 GMC Hummer EV Pickup GMC Hummer EV SUV GMC Sierra EV* Hyundai Ioniq 5 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Kia EV6 Kia EV9 Lotus Eletre* Lotus Emeya* Lucid Air Lucid Gravity* Porsche Macan Electric* Porsche Taycan Ram 1500 REV* Tesla Cybertruck *Coming later in 2024 Green Audi Chevrolet Genesis GMC Hyundai Kia Lotus Porsche Tesla Electric Lucid EV charging
