1969 Camaro, Standard Coupe 12437 built in Norwood Ohio the first week of November 1968. This is a early production vehicle (number 176350) with no X code. Car was painted RPO code 5913RR, Garnet red #52 with E code parchment white vinyl top and code 729, deluxe cloth & vinyl ivory Houndstooth interior. 
 
Some of the known RPO codes that are original and still on the car are as follows;

I can not verify that it is a true "SS" car all I can say is it has allot of the correct parts.
There are many parts that were replaced on the car over the years with incorrect replacements as the 
pictures show. There was some shoddy body work done but rust is at a minimum and body is solid. This is most likely originally a small block car (3/8 fuel line w/ no return and SB motor mount frame brackets)but was a original 4 speed with 5 leaf rear springs and 12 bolt axle. 
I do not have the correct engine for the car only a few correct dated parts of L48 300hp 350ci HA coded engine and a 1969 HB coded complete engine. The HB engine is casting number 3932388, a 4 bolt main with 2482 forged main caps, dated May 28 1969, deck stamp T0611HB. Crankshaft is Cast PN#3932440, cast June 2nd 1969, still standard/standard rod and main. Piston #3892673, cast flat top. Balancer #7704H, dated 19. Heads are 3947041's dated Feb & Apr 1969, 1.94/1.50 64cc, fresh from machine shop. Intake #3927184 dated June 2nd 1969. Distributor 1111488 dated May 22 1969. Exhaust manifolds LH 3932529 dated June 4 1969, RH 3932376 dated May 5 1969. Lower pulley 3932428CH, upper pulley 3932430DW. Rochester Quadrajet Number 7029202 DH.    

I have fully inspected the car and found no indicators of a accident, the car was purchased from central Texas several years ago and has been stored in climate controlled warehouse. I do not need or have to sell this car, I have ample storage, I am just not wanting to do a project right now. I have a clear Louisiana title in hand.
I do not want to trade, buyer is responsible for transportation from my location. Email with questions, I reserve the right to end auction early, vehicle is for sale locally.

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015

Thu, Jan 14 2016

According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After 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.
