1967 Chevrolet Camaro Ss (clone) on 2040-cars
Trinidad, Texas, United States
VIN: 12377N 192442
This beautiful Camaro started its life out as a 1967 Camaro. Somewhere along its journey someone took a lot of
time and effort to clone it into an SS, as the pictures demonstrate. When I purchased this car 2016, I truly had
no business buying the car as I do not know anything about cars but I had always wanted this car since I was
probably 14 years old (about 30years ago).
All work performed on the car during my ownership was done100% by a place in Houston called J&T Automotive (you can
look them up if needed). I will provide, if needed, all the invoices of repairs to substantiate what I write in
this listing also, if needed.
When I purchased this car the previous owner’s listing stated: "along the course of the vehicle’s life the gear
ratio was tweaked to give the car a quicker line start. It does have a posi-traction rear axle. It is a 3-speed
automatic that has a Muncie shifter. The last owner also installed a jack/plug for hooking the stereo to an iPod.
Two speakers were installed behind the back seat (and can be seen in the pictures). An A/C system was installed
along the way that is also fully functional as is the heater. Also installed was power steering, additional
instrument cluster that includes battery, oil pressure and engine temperature. He also installed new bucket seats,
floor carpeting and new door panels. Lastly, he said that the engine. A small block V8 that was originally a 350
bored out to a 402 replaced the original V6."
The exhaust system sounds strong – menacing. The vehicle has electric hideaway lights that are fully
operational. The car has powerdisc brakes, tubular control arms, leaf springs, an after-market radio that looks
old school retro AM until you turn it on and it becomes a digital AM/FM stereo.
A lot of work has been done on the engine/transmission, just short of ripping the drive-train out for a full
restoration:
Windows were tinted to darkest street legal in Texas
Fuel gauge replaced with a working original model
Parasitic Draw Test and Electrical Diagnosis. Electrical short(s) were repaired.
Installed new coolant temperature sensor and fan relay. Wiring loop and circuit performed
1967 Shock Plate Set, non-staggered, Pair LH and RH installed
Starter Motor replaced
HVAC system diagnosis/service/recharged with refrigerant with fluorescent dye. Leak found. Repaired.
Larger cooling system fans installed
Sealed beam headlights replaced
Door latches all replaced. Doors latches and locks operate perfectly
Light switch replaced
Circuit board for cluster replaced
Charging system alternator replaced
Battery tender installed top post battery
Steering wheel horn cap replaced, horn high note, horn low note both replaced
Power steering pump replaced
Engine oil pan gasket replaced
Motor oil filter replaced
Engine rear main seal replaced
Transmission removed, all external gaskets and seals replaced
Power steering line replaced
Speed sensor O-ring replaced
Tail shaft seal replaced
Oil pressure switch replaced
Fan control replaced
Dimmer switch wiring repaired and replaced
Fuel gauge sender replaced
Leaf spring bushing kit installed
Leaf spring pad kit installed
Suspension bump stop kit installed
Shock absorbers replaced and installed
Lift shackle kit installed
Dual radiator fan assembly installed
Brake lights replaced
Wiper blades removed and replaced
Fuel tank cleaned and lines flushed
Spark plugs replaced
Edelbrock carburetor, electric choke, and CHL PCV replaced
Edelbrock throttle linkage kit installed
Edelbrock throttle body flange installed
Carburetor throttle cable bracket installed
Carburetor return spring bracket installed
The car is in great shape. During the suspension redo, I had a small lift added to the rear and added larger tires
in the rear, which gives it an absolutely predator stance. Mechanical is in great shape; engine will start on the
first turn. The car drives amazingly well for a car that is approximately 54 years old. All the seat belts are in
place and work accordingly. Front seats fold down easily giving access to the rear seat. The only thing that I
can say is wrong with car at this point is the drivers side window does not close perfectly at the top rear against
the rear window.

Nissan Leaf keeps plug-in vehicle sales crown for 6th straight month
Thu, May 1 2014And Nissan makes it 14 in a row. For the 14th straight month, the all-electric Leaf has had "record sales," according to Nissan's marketing team. What that means is that for that particular month (in this case, April) no matter what year you look at, the car sold more than it ever did before. For April 2014, the 2,088 Leafs sold represents a 7.8-percent increase from 2013. Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said in a statement that the "new market" of Cincinnati made the top 25 list for Leaf sales areas in April, so the car's popularity continues to ebb and flow across the US. Over at Chevy, the Volt sold 1,548 units in April, reaching a year-to-date total of 5,154. The Leaf is outpacing that with 7,272 YTD sales. In 2013, the Volt outsold the Leaf by about 500 vehicles, but Leaf sales are up 33 percent year-over-year while Volt is down 7.1 percent. The Leaf has also outsold the Volt for six straight months. But we're excited for every eco-car sale, and that's why we'll have our monthly detailed write-up of the rest of the plug-ins, hybrids and diesel vehicles available soon. Until then, discuss.

GM expected to debut two new crossovers at Detroit Auto Show
Thu, Dec 15 2016Next month, General Motors is expected to debut two new crossovers at the North American International Auto Show. That's according to Automotive News and The Wall Street Journal, which reports that the successors to the aging Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Terrain will finally make their debut. The two crossovers have been on sale since 2009 and 2010 respectively and are due for updates as the competition has newer models on the market. Both crossovers play in growing market segments where sales success is crucial for the respective brands. GM, and the automotive industry as a whole, has been shifting its focus towards crossovers in the last few years. The Traverse and the Terrain are some of the oldest SUVs on the market and are in dire need of an update. GMC's Acadia, the former corporate clone to the Traverse (and Buick Acadia), switched to a new platform in 2016. And the Terrain's platform-mate, the Chevrolet Equinox, was revealed a few months ago. Both the new Chevy and GMC models are expected to go on sale late in 2017 as 2018 models. Look for a follow up to the Traverse's sister, the Buick Enclave, to make an appearance soon.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race
Thu, Sep 8 2016The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.
