When the car was acquired in 1997, the odometer read 00002 miles (It had been reset to all zeros when the restoration was done). It now has a little over 1800 miles on it.
The original, numbers matching DZ 302 engine has a factory GM cross ram set-up on it, and the correct carburetors were recently rebuilt by Holley. There are two hood/air filter set ups that are included with the car; one of them is pictured on the car (steel cowl hood), and another one (not pictured) which is a fiberglass cowl hood painted to match the car. A large black factory style cross ram air cleaner (with a foam seal) that mates to the underside of that hood is also included. The car is currently running with an electronic ignition "cheater" style distributor (looks stock), but the original dual point distributor is also included. There is also a special GM NOS cross ram cam kit which also goes with the car (last picture).
The 4 speed transmission works flawlessly, but is not believed to be the original transmission. The numbers stamped on right side of the case are: "P9B28A", and "19B361011" for anyone who wants to decode them. There is also another shifter handle / mechanism that is included with the car, too. The 12 bolt axle is 4:11 to 1 Positraction, and I think a second set of gears (3:73) is also included.
The car runs, drives and stops very nicely with no problems to report. It has always been garage kept since the owner acquired it, and fed a diet of high octane fuel. The car has had the heater and radio delete items when the owner got it in 1997, so these are believed to be original GM parts. The interior (carpet/seats/headliner) is in excellent condition with no rips or tears, and all the gauges work like they should. The owner added a tilt steering column to make it more comfortable for him to drive. Interior also features a console with the gauge pack, and a wood grain steering wheel.
The data plate under the hood indicates that this is an original green/green car. I inspected the paint & body work carefully and while it is presentable, it does has a few dings here and there. I also noted areas that appear to be possibly either touch ups or repairs, and I suspect a good color sand and buff would help.
An appraiser was hired to estimate the value of this Z28 for insurance purposes several years, and he pegged the value at over $100k, so I guess he was impressed with it. The report is included with the car, as is some other miscellaneous paperwork. However, no window sticker, build sheet or factory invoice has ever been found. The car was reputedly owned by Reggie Jackson in the 1990's.

Recharge Wrap-up: Panasonic, Tesla on Gigafactory deal?

Tue, Jul 29 2014

Bentley has been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for reductions of carbon, water use and waste production in manufacturing. The Carbon Trust is an organization that helps groups such as businesses and governments reduce carbon emissions, use of energy and resources, and waste output. From 2011 to 2013, Bentley reduced CO2 emissions by 16 percent per car manufactured, curtailed water use by 35.7 percent, and saw significant waste reductions. Darran Messem of Carbon trust says, "Bentley is clearly passionate about continuing to improve its environmental performance, which is reflected by the fact the company has consistently invested in new technology." Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet is giving 12 Volts to MBAs Across America. The organization will use the range-extended electric cars in its efforts to help MBA students learn from and work with small business owners. As part of the MBAs Across America program's first year, four students drove 8,000 miles to provide entrepreneurs with free business counseling. The program has expanded, and this year, teams of MBAs will use the Volts to travel to 25 cities to offer their services. Learn more about the partnership between Chevrolet and MBAs Across America in the press release below. A professor from the University of Michigan has found fuel cycle analysis to be too flawed to be relied upon for measuring CO2 impacts of transportation fuels. Professor John DeCicco of the university's Energy Institute feels that the flaws in calculating the carbon footprint of liquid fuel production and combustion make such lifecycle analysis impractical. He suggests, instead, to focus to carbon capture. Since capturing CO2 directly from a vehicle is probably never going to happen, DiCicco believes the solution is to capture carbon from the atmosphere in sectors outside of transportation. Says DiCicco, "Research should be ramped up on options for increasing the rate at which CO2 is removed from the atmosphere and on programs to manage and utilize carbon fixed in the biosphere, which offers the best CO2 removal mechanism now at hand. Such strategies can complement measures that control the demand for liquid fuels by reducing travel activity, improving vehicle efficiency and shifting to non-carbon fuels."

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems

Fri, Sep 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:

Seeing the Detroit Auto Show via drone

Sun, Jan 18 2015

Seeing the Chevrolet display at the Detroit Auto Show is worth doing this year, and not just because of the new Corvette Z06, Volt and Bolt concept. In order to attract the new kids, The Bowtie has gone what the old kids used to call "buck wild" with their show stand at Cobo Hall. A Corvette Z06, Trax, and Colorado are parked along a central aisle, called Mainstreet, at the end of which is a 20-foot-tall, 73-foot long transparent screen lording over the new Volt. Elsewhere are five more 20-foot-tall screens broadcasting nine stories today's Chevrolet wants to tell about its vehicles, from performance to belief in the power of play to its 4G LTE-equipped OnStar telematics service. Then there are the social media and virtual reality safety installations, the community presentations and more. Chevrolet flew a drone through the stand to show off what it's doing, which is has replaced eye-level video as the next best thing to being there. You can check it out in the video above.
