MY WIFE IS FROM
PROCTORVILLE AND SEVERAL YEARS AGO KAREN HAD A 1967 RS/SS 396-4SPD (KARENS67) IN THIS SAME COLOR COMBINATION. SHE
WISHES SHE HAD NEVER SOLD HER CAR SO WHEN THIS OPPORTUNITY CAME TO BE WE FIGURED IT WAS THE NEXT BEST THING
CONSIDERING ALL OF THE KARMA THAT GOES ALONG WITH THIS CAR. LOVE ME SOME CAR-MA!!! WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND DECIDED
TO HIT THE CAR SHOWS AGAIN AND HOPEFULLY MEET BACK UP WITH SOME OF THE FINE PEOPLE WE MET YEARS AGO. SINCE
PURCHASING THIS CAR WE HAVE ALSO ACQUIRED A LITTLE BUNGALO AT A LAKE THAT I GREW UP ON AND YES YOU GUESSED IT. WE
HAVE SPENT MORE TIME AT THE LAKE EVEN DURING THE OFF SEASON AND HAVE YET TO TAKE THE CAMARO TO A SINGLE CAR SHOW. I
DONT SEE THINGS CHANGING AND I REALLY HATE TO SEE THIS CAMARO GO BUT IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THESE ANTIQUE CLASSIC CARS
TO SIT AROUND AND NOT BE USED. IT NEEDS TO BE APPRECIATED, DRIVEN AND TAKING OUT AND SHOWN OFF. THE CAR IS
CURRENTLY RADIO AND WIPER DELETE. THIS IS A NICE CAR BUT COULD USE TO HAVE A FEW THINGS DONE TO IT TO MAKE IT EXTRA
NICE SUCH AS A DETROIT ELECTRIC HIDE-AWAY HEADLIGHT SYSTEM (AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS) THAT I WAS GOING TO INSTALL AND
JUST HAVE NOT GOTTEN AROUND TO IT. I AM CURRENTLY INSTALLING A BRAND NEW B&M QUICK SILVER SHIFTER (AS SHOWN IN THE
PHOTOS). I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR MUCH AT ALL OTHER THAN JUST AROUND THE COUNTRY COMMUNITY I LIVE IN.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum. For more on the what to expect out of GM's new SUVs, click on the C/D link below.
Chevy Volt 'acceptable,' Nissan Leaf 'poor' in new IIHS safety tests
Thu, Jul 31 2014Ford C-Max Hybrid also scored "acceptable" rating. With US Nissan Leaf sales up almost 30 percent during the first half of the year, the only thing that might be able to stop the battery-electric vehicle is a good, stiff barrier. Unfortunately, thing's aren't always pretty when that happens in the real world, according to new tests from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Things with the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in are a little bit rosier, though. The two plug-in vehicles were part of a batch of a dozen vehicles that just went through the IIHS's "small overlap" test, in which the driver's side front corner of the vehicle is crashed into a rigid barrier at 40 miles per hour. Out of the dozen, only the Mini Cooper Countryman was given a "good" rating. Five vehicles, including the Volt and the Ford C-Max Hybrid, were rated "acceptable," two were "marginal" and two, including the Leaf, were "poor." Plug-in vehicles are unique in the crash-test context because of their relatively large battery sizes. In the Volt's case, the driver had a "low risk" of injury, said the IIHS. But the Leaf's crash substantially pushed back the instrument panel and steering column, creating a scenario where the driver was "likely" to sustain leg injuries. The batteries in both the Leaf and the Volt passed safety tests specifically targeted at things like thermo and electrical properties and overall integrity. "Nissan is proud of the Leaf's 'Good' rating in all other IIHS tests, a 4-star NCAP rating from NHTSA and its IIHS Top Safety Pick rating in all previous years since the car's release," the company said in an e-mail sent to AutoblogGreen. "As for the performance of the 2014 Leaf in the 'small overlap frontal test,' Nissan will continue to review these and other results from the IIHS 'small overlap frontal test' as we seek opportunities for improvement." Check out the IIHS's press release and small car crash-test video footage below. Range of ratings: Small car ratings run the gamut in challenging small overlap front test The Mini Cooper Countryman is the only small car to earn a good rating among the latest group of 12 cars subjected to the Institute's small overlap front crash test. Two electric models and a hybrid also are in the mix, with varied results. The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt (with a gasoline engine "range extender") earns an acceptable rating, while its battery-electric rival, the Nissan Leaf, earns a poor rating.
