I am selling my '69 Hugger Orange Camaro (SS Badging) VIN Number: 123379N567413
I bought the car in October 2011 from a friend of mine who got the car out of Pennsylvania and had it shipped here to Pensacola. I drove it for a few months w/the built 350 it had in it then around mid December the motor and tranny were out and the LS1 swap got underway. I've put around 3,500 miles on her after the swap. The car has PS, PB (front disc, rear drum), LS1 w/ 4L60E, Vintage Air Gen IV, 10 Bolt Rear w/ Eaton POSI and 3.36 Richmond gear (Gear and POSI were installed 10/2012 along with new bearings, seals, cover gasket, and gear oil), and American Racing 17x8 TT2's all the way around. Tires have good tread on them. Were put on right before I bought the car. Battery is newer. This car drives great and gets good gas mileage. I drove it to NC and TN for Run Thru The Hills in September 2012 and the car did great! Cruised the whole way there and back at 75-80mph w/AC on and music playing. 26 mpg. I'm selling because I have enjoyed the car and want to invest in another house.
Motor/Drivetrain: The motor is an LS1 out of a 2002 SS Camaro that had 89,000 miles on it when we removed it and the 4L60E from the car. I took all accessories of the motor and did a thorough cleaning and degreasing (See pics). I then painted the block, water pump, etc. Cast Coat Iron. The pulleys, coil packs, and upper intake are Semi Flat Black. The tranny is Cast Coat Iron as well. It all looks really clean and people comment on it when you open the hood. The oil pan is the Holley LS pan. I used Dirty Dingo sliders for adjustibility. Aluminum radiator and dual electric fans. New water pump. Taylor Wires. Lokar throttle cable and pedals. K&N filter. I added a Z06 cam and springs and Dynatech longtube headers. Off road H-pipe and Flowmaster mufflers complete the exhaust. The car has been tuned and totally remapped. The motor runs great, starts up as it should, idles perfectly, shifts perfectly, and it's a pretty peppy car. I've had some high horsepower cars and this car is as fun to drive as any of them.
Suspension: The car was pretty stock when I bought it. I added Hotckis front coil springs and rear leaf springs (1.5" drop), Hotckis front sway bar, and new front shocks. It sits awesome and handles so much better. These few upgrades totally changed the feel and look of the car.
Interior: I just installed a brand new carpet in the car in January. The seats and console are out of a 2002 SS Camaro and the driver is power. With the console there are two AC power jacks and 4 cup holders. The dash pad is new. I installed a JVC cd player w/ Ipod hookup. I installed Kenwood dash speakers and Pioneer rear deck speakers. Installed a Grant steering wheel, Autometer Phantom gauges, and 3-way seat belts. All original side and rear glass. Some scratches. The interior is very clean and simple. *The lid on console needs to be replaced. I have just dealt w/ it. It opens and closes but the mounting bracket is messed up. It's loose and doesn't latch shut. Junkyard/U-Pull-It might be the place to look.
Paint/Body: This is a great looking DRIVER car! It's not a show car. I just waxed her last weekend. She gets a lot of comments, thumbs ups, smiles everywhere I go. The paint looks killer from 8-10ft away, but if you inspect the car up real close there are some rust spots in the typical places; ie bottom of doors, rear deck cover?? (Between rear glass and trunk), and one on the piece in front of the hood above grill area (See pics of imperfections below). When we were removing the front passenger fender I nicked the edge of door ..... It has been touched up so it's less noticeable. I'm not a Camaro scholar, this is my first old car. I'm trying to be as up front as possible. I'm anal about my cars and these are things some people wouldn't care about. Not me though. I recently noticed after I washed the car that the truck had a little water in it. After talking to a few people this is not uncommon. I haven't had the time to investigate further.. I never drive it if it's raining because I don't have to so it's not to big of an issue for me.
Type of Acceptable Payment: Bank Wire, Cash, or Cashiers Check from Bank that's in my area. I would prefer a Wire transfer.
Deposit: $500 Paypal deposit within 24 hours of sale
Pickup: Call me to schedule pickup after the auction is completed. I would like to close the deal within 10 days of auction close but will work with the buyer as much as possible. The car is in my garage and will stay there until it's picked up.
The car is for sale locally and will be driven occasionally. Ask me any questions and I will give you an honest and forthright answer. I can also take more pictures if needed. Thanks for looking!

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

Chevy Cruze CNG available from Crazy Diamond Performance
Thu, Aug 7 2014Anyone out there who can somehow find a second way to link Pink Floyd to natural gas vehicles gets a prize. Because so far, we have one Michigan-based company called Crazy Diamond Performance (Shine On You Crazy Diamond being a longtime Floyd fave) that's setting out to convert Chevrolet Cruze vehicles to run on compressed natural gas (CNG). All in the name of cheaper fuel and domestic security, of course. Crazy Diamond says it can offer a converted CNG-powered Chevy Cruze for a price as low as $26,000. That four-cylinder version has 130 horsepower and an 8.5-gasoline-gallon-equivalent capacity that provides a full-tank range of as many as 250 miles. Pony up another $2,000 or so and the peppier, turbocharged CNG Cruze can be yours. The company says it will provide a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty and is trying to get EPA certification for its conversions. The selling points are cheaper fuel (CNG is about half the cost of regular gasoline in some parts of the country) and homeland security (CNG reduces dependence on foreign oil). The only production passenger vehicle CNG in the US is the Honda Civic CNG, which sells in very limited numbers. Check out Crazy Diamond's flyer here.
