Columbus, Mississippi, United States
The body was widened and refinished in silver blue and features a dark blue soft top, pop-up headlights, dual side mirrors, a split rear bumper, and twin side-exit exhaust pipes. The seller states that the front bumper was painted to match the rear bumper and will be included in the sale.
Split-spoke 18″ front and 19″ rear Budnik forged wheels are mounted with 275/35 and 325/30 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. The body is reportedly mounted on a Coffman C2 custom chassis that is equipped with C6 Corvette suspension components and Viking coilovers. Stopping power is provided by Z06 brake calipers and Carbotech brake pads.
Twin low-back bucket seats are trimmed in dark blue vinyl upholstery and paired with a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Equipment includes aluminum trim, a dashboard-mounted clock, blue lap belts, a factory-style Corvette radio with USB ports, and manually-operated windows. A Vintage Air climate control system has been added.
The Budnick steering wheel frames Dakota Digital instruments that include a 160-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer shows 900 miles, approximately 400 of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 6.2-liter LS3 V8 crate motor reportedly features a stage 3 Brian Tooley cam, Velocity sheet metal intake, Be Cool radiator with dual electric fans, and Thunder Chamber side pipes. The seller states that an oil change was performed in preparation for sale.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
Just the right Camaro can change your life
Thu, Jan 22 2015Not many people can say that their car directly motivated them into a career, but that's exactly the case for Adam Martin and his 1968 Chevrolet Camaro that he calls Lucy. Martin bought the pony car in primer when he was just 16, and it helped foster his profession in restoring classic cars. Beyond just being a very cool ride for a teenager, every change to Lucy was an opportunity to hone a new automotive skill for Martin. Whether figuring out how to paint a car or building the 454-cubic-inch (7.4-liter) big block V8, the Camaro offered a platform for experimentation. This latest episode of Petrolicious gets personal about the bond between man and machine for this 18-year ongoing project. And even if the story doesn't immediately grab you, Lucy has a great voice and can do a mean burnout.

Franchitti, Kanaan, and Dixon prank young IndyCar driver
Fri, May 22 2015The 20-year-old Sage Karam is a rising star in racing after scoring the 2013 Indy Lights Championship and taking ninth place in the 2014 Indianapolis 500. He's now competing for Chip Ganasi Racing, one of the top teams in the IndyCar Series, and counts this year's pole sitter Scott Dixon and former winner Tony Kanaan as teammates. Of course, being so young and a new member of the squad, some lighthearted hazing is to be expected. Dixon, Kanaan, and three-time Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti decided to play a little prank on Karam. While ostensibly detailing his Chevrolet Camaro, the three joking racecar drivers turned it into the Karamo. Check out the video above to see exactly what that means. After some scary crashes going into this year's event, it's refreshing to watch some cheery things happening at Indy.
