OK, this one is going to take a lot to list, but here it goes. I will probably forget to mention quite a few things so please call with questions. This is a fresh frame off restoration. Less than 200 miles on it. It was totally disassembled and rebuilt from ground up. Supposedly, over 50K was invested per the past owner. I am hoping to get less than half of that number.

Body: Very straight and a very nice base coat clear coat paint job. Red as red can be. Chrome and stainless either new or very nice. The front bumper has a couple of places where the chrome popped because the bumper bolts were over tightened. Glass all good except for wiper mark on front windshield. If there was any body panel replacements, it cannot be spotted or picked up by a magnet. It comes with a complete set of 210 stainless trim for around the windows and belt line.

Interior: Custom "pleather" with real ostrich leather accents. Gauges are VDO and all work except for speedo. It is not hooked up. It has Vintage A/C and heat that works. All new Painless wiring system. Lecarra steering wheel. Custom chrome tilt column. Wipers and horn work. B&M shifter.

Tires and wheels: New Boyd Coddington 18" custom wheels with new Falcon 255/45ZR18 tires. Cost over $3500.00.

Suspension: Air Ride technologies. Very expensive set-up with individual control of all 4 corners. Rear is a 3:08 gear 9" Ford with a custom 4 link set-up. Front is a custom Heidts manual rack and pinion set-up. Braked are power discs up front and drum rears. You can drop the car all the way down to the frame and raise it higher than you would ever want. In the pictures it is about half way down.

Drive line: Bored out 1969 - 402 cu in big block Chevy. Big cam. 1967 - 101 cc closed chamber heads. Roller rockers. Supposedly about 500 horse power. Edlebrock accessories. Accel ignition. Holley 750 carb. Headers. 3" Flow master exhaust with "H" pipe. High torq starter. 400 turbo transmission. All new or rebuilt. The only mistake, in my mind, that the guy made was installing too big of a cam and not installing a stall torque converter in the tranny. It will idle in gear, but it lops a lot. Combine that with the 3" Flowmaster exhaust, and you will definitely get noticed when you pull in at a cruise night. A bit too loud and lopy for me, but then I am getting older too.

Again, this is a fresh restoration but it does need a few final items to be complete. Missing rear slash pan between bumper and body. No radio or aerial. The starter makes a funny noise. It works every time, but I am not sure that it sounds like it should. A new chrome high torque starter is included in the trunk. Needs hood springs installed. New hood springs are in the trunk. It is missing the bottom half on the trunk weather stripping. Door locks do not function properly, but the trunk lock works fine.

I know I am missing something here. I will add more info as I think of it.

NO TRADES

For those of you over seas; I have sold quite a few cars to guys in Austria, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, etc. so I know how that works.

Now for the business end. I encourage you, or someone you trust or hire, to come by and check out the vehicle in person. I will refund your deposit if the vehicle does not match the above description. The vehicle does not leave here until all funds clear my bank. Bank and cashiers checks can take up to 10 business days. My bank will give me a letter stating the date when the check will clear. I will forward a copy of the letter to you. Bank transfers can take up to 2 days depending on what time of the day it is initiated on your end. Again, my bank will let me know when it clears. Cash is great if picking it up in person.

Call me at 314-732-592five to get honest answers to all of your questions BEFORE YOU BID. Thanks, Dave

One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a car that I would not be interested in.

I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will call you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle must be out of your price range. Once my vehicle hits it's reserve price, I will not end the auction.

I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying a vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on.

If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or zero feedback, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder.

For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership.

Thanks to all, good luck with your bidding, and have a great day, Dave

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

2015 Chevy Volt gets larger battery, though range remains the same

Sat, Jul 19 2014

The Chevrolet Volt isn't changing much for the 2015 model year. According to specifications uncovered by Inside EVs, though, the new Volt's battery does have a slightly larger capacity. According to the spec sheet, this doesn't translate to increased range. Real world driving, though, might tell a different story. The 2015 Volt's battery storage is slightly higher than the outgoing model's, up from 16.5 kilowatt-hours to 17.1 kWh. According to GM's manager of electrification technology communications, Kevin Kelly, speaking to Green Car Reports, the increased capacity is "a late change done in the cell... just another continuous improvement to surprise and delight our customers." The stated electric range, however, stays at 38 miles. Inside EVs followed up on its original report, and found that drivers could see some advantage to the battery tweak. When they spoke to Kelly, he told them, "As a result of this change, we would expect that some customers may see a slight improvement in overall EV range." It's worth noting that when battery capacity increased from 16 kWh to 16.5 kWh for the 2013 Volt, electric range increased by three miles to the current 38, while MPGe went from 94 to 98. The price of the 2015 Chevrolet Volt remains steady, at $34,995. The actual cost to the customer is considerably less with the $7,500 federal tax credit, as well as any local incentives.
