What we have here is a 1968 Z28 Camaro. This car is a documented Protection Plate car from the dealership. The car has gone through a complete rotisserie restoration. Every single wire to lightbulb, to bushing, to nut and bolt....this car has been completely dismantled, restored and meticulously put back together with complete detail and care. The car has a numbers matching drive train except the engine which was found close to the correct date code. Original MO Zapper block which was standard and rebuilt with all Z28 correct components like ..standard 1178 crankshaft...standard 30/30 camshaft, lifters, rockers, balancer, windage tray excetra. Factory Original.... everything in this car to the throttle spring is the way it came off the assembly line. The car is literally not broken into as it was driven only couple hundred miles. Every mechanical part of the car was fined tuned from the point you turn the key. From the Holley DZ original carburetor, to the timing of the engine, to the temperature .... all mechanical components compliment each other when driving. This machine was in the care of a mechanic from the 60's era before it came home. If I would compare driving this car to a musical instrument I would say a flute....Sounds so smooth. The car has no flaws. There is not a scratch, chip, or mark on the paint. The body lines and gaps are like factory. The factory original paint of Seafrost Green is a rare color and has the houndstooth seats which have also been refoamed and upholstered. This car is equiped with a restored AM/FM radio, center console, tic tac toc, power steering, power disc brakes which are all factory original. Even the brake booster and master cylinder were restored to retain the numbers on the booster which state a true Z28. This car was restored with the dynamat coat underneath the carpet to provide the sound barrier of driving. And I say, you can barely hear the car when you drive it. It is equipped with the original reproduction exhaust as well. The wheels on the car are original Z28 wheels. They are also restored with GM stamps and DF stamps on them. There is one spare rim matching the other five wheels that come with the car. The transmission is restored and is an M22 Rock Crusher transmission. The GM Z28 emblems are real and not knock off ones.. These are super rare and they are brand new and not repops...The rear end is the original posi traction BU Code 3:73 rear end with all original GM gears.. All seals have been replaced. There is no leaks anywhere. This car still retains its original glove box tire decal which also describes its status as a True Z28. This car also came with the delux steering wheel which also has been restored. Front power disc brakes with all lines....basically the whole brake system, fuel system is brand new. All suspension is brand new...Everything ..like I said....nut and bolt... ALL NEW....I installed a secondary mechanical temp gauge which will read temp contantly at 180F. This car is definately a beautiful car. They never called these cars the mighty mouse of the 60's for no reason. The car is currently in a heated container stored right now. You will not find a nicer turn key, everything works, completely restored 1968 Camaro anywhere ...Bonus ...ITS A REAL DOCUMENTED Z28 ....For my US friends. The car came from Wisconsin and I am currently the third owner. I can do all the paperwork at the border without you being there. It will leave from Blaine, Washington State. Car must obviously be shipped in an enclosed truck where I can meet the driver for pickup at the border... I will pay the 500 border fee and have all the paperwork ready for you when the car arrives to its new home. It will be made easy so you may take it to your DMV, Isure, and title it to your state. Please read and look at the pictures... All photo and receipt documentation is included with the car. Have this beauty just in time for the summer. Super low reserve for the value of this car. Tens of thousands spent on restoration for problem free turn key car. This car is a real gem ... Goodluck.

Had a question about the protection booklet. Those are photo copies in the picture. The real book is stored in our bank's safety deposit box. And yes it will go along with the car. And yes, the reserve is below 50 !

Recharge Wrap-up: Indianapolis to switch 425 fleet vehicles to EVs, Chevy Corvette provides bat habitats
Tue, Nov 4 2014Indianapolis will deploy 425 battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles as part of its municipal fleet by 2016. The fleet will include such cars as the Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Volt and Ford Fusion Energi. The city will also reduce its overall fleet by 100 vehicles. In all, the revised group - called the "Freedom Fleet" - will save $8.7 million and 2.2 million gallons of gasoline over 10 years. Read more at Hybrid Cars. EVs with longer range would make vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid energy management systems more practical for the US. The idea of using EVs as energy storage for emergencies or times of high grid demand is currently being tested in Japan with Nissan's Leaf-to-Home system. The US is also interested in such capabilities, but the higher average energy use of American households would make larger batteries in EVs ideal for grid storage applications.

The factory, when constructed, will have a capacity of producing batteries for 100,000 cars per year according to the Korean company. The plant will supply batteries for Chinese automakers such as SAIC and Qoros.

General Motors is using adhesive used in the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to create habitat for threatened bat species. Artificial bat caves could help alleviate white-nose fungus that leads to diminished bat populations. Leftover adhesive is used to create stalactites in the artificial caves, allowing them more structure to hang from. GM has also provided Volt battery covers to create nesting habitats for bats, which eat harmful insects and help pollinate plants. See the videos and read more in the press release below.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
