This ad features a stunning 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, with all the right features; 427 big block V-8, 4 speed transmission, posi- traction rear-end and cowl induction hood all encased in black, it just doesn’t get any more musclecar then this! This car is extremely clean rust wise, mechanically dependable and strong running and a real show stopper ready to cruise as is. The car has not been heavily modified and essentially stock structurally so it is a great car to further detail to a more factory appearance, or it is a great candidate to further modify into a real street terror.

Mechanically this car needs nothing so if you are not much of a mechanic you are all set, and the paint and body are fantastic. As you read through the write up you will see most everything has either been rebuilt or replaced. This is a great driver and ready to go with plenty of oppurtunity for you to add your own details to make it your own. This car is so striking it collects lots of attention whether it's cruising down the street or parked.

Finish -- Grade A-: Black paint is a recent clear coat base coat paint job. The shine/luster is very good and looks as good in person as it does in the pictures. It has not been fully detailed, but a show level detail and wax is all this paint really needs.

Body -- Grade A-: The body is nearly all original with only some light restoration, when new rear quarter panels were installed at one time. Features a factory steel cowl induction hood, and front and rear factory spoilers. The body work was done professionally and it looks great, and lets face it black paint does not lie, and this car looks sharp. The trunk floor is very clean and all original. The rear wheel wells and floor pans are also clean rust free factory original. The body panels line up perfect and the car features fresh weather-stripping

I have been driving the car daily without issue, I would put my oldest daughter behind the wheel, without fear of the dependability, but maybe not my youngest daughter…..she has a heavy foot, but that is another story.

Engine Grade A: Engine is clean with a recent overhaul by Heighes Performance here in Traverse City. 427 big Block is period correct and estimated to produce 500 Horsepower with a roller camshaft and roller rockers.

Installation is clean and professional with a clean performance appearance. Engine is equipped with brand new Chevrolet Performance valve covers and open air element air cleaner. The motor has a nice performance idle, but smooths out off idle and has excellent street manners, but pulls hard under acceleration, no black smoke, and carburetor responds better then fuel injection. Plenty of power on hand for a little stop light racing. Engine features a new alternator, battery, radiator hoses, belts and fresh tune-up with cap, rotor, wires, and plugs. Car also features a 4 core factory style radiator with 4 bladed fan. Oil pressure holds a steady 60 lbs of pressure when warm, and engine stays consistent at 170-180 degrees even in stop and go traffic on summer days. Very dependable driver that makes great power but mild street manners for daily driving, my wife has driven the car and loves everything but the attention the car draws when she drives it!

Summary:

This car is a great looking car that just really needs nothing more then a little detailing, perfect car to tinker with and polish on and maybe add the little touches to make it yours. It is a very nice car to drive with smooth acceleration and cruises great on the highway with 1400RPM at 55MPH and an estimated top speed of 145MPH. The idle through the chambered mufflers makes it a hit at the cruise in or at the stop light and it pulls a heck of a hole shot. The suspension and brakes work as designed and the driving experience of the car is comfortable for local cruising or for a long drive. (I have driven the car over 4 hours one way, and daily on a 45 minute commute) Operation is very reliable and without issue and the engine pulls hard off idle up to 6000 rpm. It is a lot of fun to run through the gears. The car as is would make a great reliable, daily driver that would be a blast to drive everyday to work on nice days. You could fly into Traverse City, pick up and drive this car anywhere home without issue. It is really a fun car to drive with its throaty exhaust and excellent power range.

This really car needs nothing replaced and is road ready for cruising. Mechanically it has been totally gone through and all maintenance items (battery, alternator, brakes, fluids, radiator, etc) have been checked out, are new or replaced! You can drive this car literally anywhere without issue. So if doing a full restoration or building a bad news street terror is outside your skills level but your looking a for a great musclecar this the car for you. When you consider the full restoration numbers matching cars run $45K plus and most of the cars below $15K,….well let’s just say are still in need of a lots of work. This car is very well priced and a steal at $33,000.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region Â— hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.Â However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles Â— roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars Â— are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.Â Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.Â Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.Â Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El CaminoÂ with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.

GM puts 3 million miles on hydrogen fuel cell test fleet

Mon, May 12 2014

Have General Motors' hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles emitted enough water vapor over the past six-plus years to equal the steam coming out of Old Faithful? Not exactly, but GM has released a few figures related to the Project Driveway initiative it began in 2007. The numbers are impressive, if not quite of the geyser-spouting variety. In all, the General converted 119 Chevrolet Equinox SUVs to run on hydrogen, and those vehicles have just collectively surpassed the 3 million mile mark. And if you were waiting for us to tell you that the distance equals a half-dozen round trips between the earth and the moon, well, there you go. The better news is that the SUVs have combined to save almost 158,000 gallons worth of gas, and some of the vehicles have more than 120,000 miles on them. More than 5,000 drivers have participated in the project. GM reached that landmark about 10 months after it announced that it was working with Honda to accelerate the development of hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain technology. The two companies estimated last summer that it may have something to sell to the public as soon as 2020. For now, you can check out General Motors' press release below. GM Fuel Cell Fleet Tops 3 Million Miles Chevrolet Equinox fuel cell vehicles driven in real world reach milestone DETROIT – General Motors' fleet of fuel cell vehicles recently passed 3 million miles of hydrogen-powered, real-world driving. Some individual vehicles have accumulated more than 120,000 miles. By GM's estimate, using hydrogen to power these vehicles, the fleet has avoided 157,894 gallons of gasoline consumption. This specially equipped fleet of Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell vehicles are part of GM's 119-vehicle Project Driveway program, which launched in 2007. Since then, more than 5,000 drivers have provided feedback on the functionality and drivability of fuel cell technology. "Hydrogen fuel cell technology is an important part of GM's advanced propulsion portfolio and we continue to make substantial progress in furthering this technology," said Charlie Freese, executive director of GM's global fuel cell engineering activities. "These vehicles have operated through seven full winters and a wide range of environmental conditions, proving that fuel cells can meet the demands of real-world drivers." Last year, GM announced two fuel cell-related collaborations.

2015 Chevy Colorado takes Motor Trend Truck of the Year calipers [w/videos]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

The final winner of Motor Trend's prestigious Golden Calipers has been named, with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado taking the title of 2015 Truck of the Year, likely shocking those who thought Ford's all-aluminum, next-generation F-150 would take the crown. But win the Colorado did, beating not only the new Ford, but two other brutish Blue Ovals in the F-450 and Transit. The midsize pickup also bested its brethren from General Motors, beating the heavy-duty Chevy Silverado 3500, GMC Sierra Denali 2500 and the GMC Canyon, the Colorado's fraternal twin. After an unprecedented two-year stint with the Golden Calipers, Ram sat this year's awards out. Most impressive about the Colorado's victory isn't that it simply beat the US market's other trucks, it did so with a unanimous vote. Praise from MT's editors focused on the trucklet's price, spacious interior, fit and finish and performance. Former Autoblog staffer Jonny Lieberman called the Colorado's steering the best he'd "ever experienced on any truck, full stop," in MT's awards article. "After days of testing, hundreds of miles on the road, and our most rigorous truck testing program to date, our editors unanimously selected the Chevy Colorado as our 2015 Truck of the Year," said MT boss Edward Loh. "Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users." The Colorado joins the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and 2015 Honda CR-V among Motor Trend 2015 award winners.
