1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Restored Factory Ac 350 on 2040-cars
Selkirk, New York, United States
Up for sale is this immaculate and recently restored numbers matching 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28. This is a rare model Z/28 because it has factory A/C, (which does work). This is the first year for a Z/28 to offer A/C as an option.
The 2-year restoration was completed in early 2019 and the Z/28 has only been driven approximately 4000 since then
The car was totally disassembled, and soda blasted before any work was performed. In the way of bodywork both the
trunk & interior floor pans were replaced, a section of the rear frame, and the right rear quarter panel. The body
was then put on a rotisserie and painted in a 2-stage urethane black w/silver stripes (under the clear). Although
not an original color, the black definitely shows off the quality of the work and straightness of the body.
The entire suspension was taken apart, painted, and had polyurethane bushings added. New shocks, springs, brake
system, and 15” powder coated wheels w/ B.F. Goodrich T/A radials 235 x 60R x 15
The interior had new carpeting, upholstery & foam, and headliner. The original gauge cluster (which does come with
the car) was replaced with a Dakota Digital unit. The speedometer and other gauges function normally except the
odometer. Please note that some of the plastic interior pieces were not replaced and show a little age. Items
like the shifter cover, face of the gauge cluster, and some of the window trim.
All of the wiring is original, and the lights turn signals, etc. function normally. LED headlights were added.
The originals are included. As mentioned, the A/C does work and blows cold air, but the switch works only on two
positions. Off and high
As far as the 350 c.i./175 h.p. engine, Turbo 350 transmission, and 10-bolt rear differential, they appear to be
numbers matching to the car and documentation shows they were rebuilt by the prior owner and have approximately
15000 miles on them.
Some of the additional new equipment include new hoses, flushed radiator, rebuilt A/C compressor, power steering
pump, battery, gas tank, fuel lines, fuel pump, Edelbrock air cleaner, carb, & intake (original carb is included
with the car), in-line fuel filter, and an MSD distributor.
Additionally, a set of 4.11 posi-traction gears were added by one of the prior owners. Speedometer has been
calibrated for this gear ratio.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
