Please allow ample time for our high resolution photos and video to load. Thank you. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Convertible Z-11 Pace Car VIDEO BELOW / PRESS PLAY VIDEO ABOVE / PRESS PLAY Street Machines Texas is proud to present this genuine Z-11 '69 Camaro Pace Car. There were 3,675 of the pace car Z-11 optioned tribute cars built by GM in 1969. 1969 would be the 2nd pace car for the Camaro and arguably the most attractive. The 1969 Camaro boasted new aggressive styling throughout the exterior and interior. With its exclusive Dover White Paint with Hugger Orange Stripes & bulging body panels, these cars are certainly head-turners. This example is powered by its original 350/300HP smallblock V8 engine and showcases all of its factory options. This is a garaged example that is original in most respects & all equipment with exception of a re-spray in the past. Little history is known on this Texas car, but we will do our best to showcase it. Enjoy the presentation and feel free to contact myself, Sam, direct at 972-748-6389 with any questions. FEATURES INCLUDE: Factory 300 Horsepower 350 cubic inch V8 engine - Engine Stamping T0419HB & Block Casting 3932388 TH350 Automatic Transmission Factory Manual Convertible Top & Orange Boot Factory Air Conditioning Power Steering Power Front Disc Brakes 15-Inch Rally Wheels / B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A Tires Factory Z-11 Option Car Super Sport & Rally Sport (RS/SS) Package Tachometer / Clock Dover White Exterior & Hugger Orange Stripes Original Orange Houndstooth Interior - Center Console - Headrest Seats Spare Tire & Jacking Equipment Factory AM/FM Delco Radio 12-Bolt Posi-Traction Rear End First Year Cowl Induction Vintage 1969 Texas plates x 2 Rubber Mats This Norwood-built example is a quality driver ready to own and enjoy. The exterior displays an older refinish in the correct Dover White & Z-11 specific orange stripes. Hand pinstriping was laid down along with body lines to accentuate the '69s beautiful lines. The paint is in good condition with a few minor flaws if you look closely. The body itself is very straight. The doors, trunk, and hood line up correctly. There are some paint chip touch-ups along the door edge and the trunk lid edge you can see if you look closely. This is a very attractive and dry climate Camaro. Open the doors to 1969. The interior features the striking original Orange Houndstooth configuration & standard equipment along with an optional AM/FM Delco radio, factory tachometer, and center console. You could even get these cars with column-shifted transmissions in some models. Another unusual thing about this Camaro is the factory air conditioning and manual top. Most of the cars were equipped with power-operated tops from my research. Further inspection of the interior will confirm that this is a garage-kept example. The current owner has had the car for 13-years and it hasn't changed a bit since he took ownership. The car was purchased off a showroom in central Texas after he sold his '67 RS/SS 396 White & Blue Pace Car convertible. The dash displays the factory speedometer and tachometer along with the optional clock. The 80,148 miles are certainly original to the car, although I don't have mileage logs to verify this. Under the hood is the original and previously rebuilt 350 cubic inch V8 rated at 300 horsepower. This 4-bolt block retains the correct casting of 3932388 and the engine pad stamping is T0419HB, also matching this car's production dates. The engine runs very smooth and strong. It is paired with the TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Accessories include power front disc brakes, power steering and rare factory air conditioning. An Optima battery has been added. 1969 would be the first year for the optional cowl induction hood on Camaro. This example is complete with its correct cowl breather & seal. Further inspection will confirm clean and detailed inner fender wells and core support sheet metal throughout. The Norwood built Z-11 Camaros had Z11 stamped on the firewall tag while the LA built cars did not. This is a Norwood example. If you look closely, you can see some ripple to the firewall near the cowl tag where the car was possibly repaired at some point in its life. I suspect a fender-bender of some kind in the 1970s, although every lines up as it should both externally and underneath. The car is a pleasure to drive. The undercarriage displays excellent original sheet metal throughout. The floorboards are indicative of a dry-climate car. The subframe appears to retain its original bushings while the front end was rebuilt previously. The rear end is the original 12-bolt posi-traction unit. This undercarriage hasn't been detailed out, so you can see how solid it is. This is a very attractive Camaro. With spoilers and hide-away headlights, this is certainly a mean-machine. The glass is in good condition throughout as is the rubber weatherstrip. The convertible top has been replaced in the past, judging by its great condition. It is manually operated and hidden with a hugger orange boot when retracted. The muscular stance is aided by the original rolling stock of 15-inch Rally wheels wrapped in timeless B.F. Goodrich Radial T/As which have plenty of tread front to back. I found a pretty good paint chip area there on the rear tail light panel along with an isolated area of bubbles just in front of the drivers door. These spots have been there for 13-years and haven't changed any in that time. The trunk looks great, with the correct spatter paint and matching spare wheel & jacking equipment. The inner quarter panels look excellent and the trunk lip is solid throughout. The door panels and door undersides are in excellent condition Enjoy the remaining photos and again feel free to contact myself, Sam, at 972-748-6389 with any questions.

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant
Mon, Jun 23 2014The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.
McLaren, Koenigsegg, Toyota, Ford, Dodge and Corvette Lego kits announced for 2021
Tue, May 4 2021Lego has announced a slew of car-themed sets for 2021. The six kits comprise nine vehicles and fall under the brick pusher's Speed Champion line of official OEM-licensed kits. News of their arrival comes from German toy retailer JB Spielwaren's pre-order listings, which show three single-car sets and three dual-car sets of matched marques. Starting with the McLaren Elva roadster, the kit consists of 263 pieces and is finished in blue. It seems to have a difficult time capturing the curves of the real-life Elva, but there's only so much you can do with a bunch of plastic blocks. Lego has made several other McLaren kits before, including the Senna, 720S, and a more advanced Senna GTR for the Technics line. Next up is the Koenigsegg Jesko, made up of 280 pieces and finished in white. Though the real-life Jesko is still curvy, this kit does a better job of replicating its aggressive maw, vents and cantilevered rear wing. Rounding out the single-car sets is the 299-piece Toyota GR Supra in yellow. This marks the first time Toyota has lent their license to Lego. Again, it struggles a bit to represent the curvy Supra, relying on printed details like logos and headlights to identify. On the other hand, the Chevrolet two-car does a stupendous job with the 1968 Corvette. The C3 is instantly recognizable as such. The C8-R race car it's paired with suffers from the same issues as some of the previous cars, though. The set contains 512 pieces, and funnily enough the C8 driver has short hair while the C3 driver sports a period-correct wavy mane. The next set is a 627-piece Mopar-themed pair, including a purple (Plum Crazy?) 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A and an SRT top fuel dragster. The race car is spot on, but the Challenger was probably tough to make given the width restrictions. It looks a couple of pegs too narrow compared to the wide proportions of the real deal. Last but not least, the Ford set contains a Bronco R and Ford GT Heritage Edition. Consisting of 660 pieces, the set does an excellent job of representing both cars. The GT looks faithful in its Gulf livery, and the Bronco R looks more like a real Bronco than the actual Bronco R race truck. All in all, it's always fun to see more Lego sets with real cars, and we're glad to see more manufacturers added to the roster. The single-car sets are recommended for ages 7 and up, while the double-car sets have an 8 years and up rating. Price in U.S.
Here's how Detroit is selling more luxury vehicles than Germany and Japan
Sun, Dec 14 2014Now there's an attention-grabbing headline, eh? Although the answer to the riddle - pickup trucks and SUVs - might be somehow deflating, the numbers involved deserve a going over. According to TrueCar's figures (click on the table to enlarge), six of the year's ten best-selling vehicles in the US that sell for a transaction price above $50,000 are body-on-frame, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is the only foreigner to crack the top five. Every enthusiast knows that pickup trucks are 'Murica's most popular vehicle by a colossal margin, and there have been plenty of reports about the popularity of luxuriously appointed trucks and SUVs, but compare these figures from TrueCar: 70 percent of Chevrolet Tahoe sales have a transaction price above $50K, and The Bowtie is expected to make $3.9 billion in revenue on 66,945 predicted high-dollar sales; 95.1 percent of E-Class sales break $50K, so the German company will make $4.0 billion on 67,006 predicted sales in that pricing sphere. It's about the only time you'll see the Tahoe ranked right next to Mercedes' bread-and-butter sedan. Ram is ahead of those two with $4.2B coming from $50K-plus sales. The Ford F-Series does almost as much revenue as the next three combined, with an expected $10.8 billion coming from sales of trucks over $50K - more than a quarter of the model's total sales, when a base F-150 can be had for about $26,000. Yes, the Germans make a lot more money on fewer sales, but considering the comparison, the bottom line isn't too troubled by such facts. Weighing like-for-like, the full-size Ford walks it in every category; elsewhere, the Chevrolet Silverado outsells the Ram, but the Ram outsells the Chevy by 6.7 percent above $50K. And for all the flak GMC takes over swapping out grilles, the Sierra also outsells the Chevy in the well-appointed segment, 16.1 percent of sales versus 11 percent – the Professional Grade brand is a huge profit center for The General. You'll find more info in the TrueCar press release below. TrueCar finds pickup trucks far outsell premium brands among top 10 vehicles over $50,000 Ford F-Series pickup sales over $50,000 surpass combined BMW 3, 5, 7 Series luxury car sales SANTA MONICA, Calif.
