1970 Chevrolet Camaro on 2040-cars
Cranfills Gap, Texas, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : christopherpedroncelli@juno.com .
Complete numbers matching, documented, 24,500 original mile 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28. I have documented ownership history, (actually a three ring binder) OEM sales literature, owner's manual, Warranty (i.e. Protect O Plate) Kodak Photos of this car from years ago, extra keys, Parts and Repairs Receipts, and Z28 authenticity certificate. This is a Norwood built car, and so marked on the build tag. This is a survivor car that has been freshened up with an engine re-build 1000 miles ago in 2008. Re-built professionally to factory specifications. The correct heads received a Three angle valve job, and the engine has been fully balanced, line bored, and cylinder honing. New seals in heads and all new engine gaskets of course. I have receipts describing materials, and the exact engine work that was performed. Shop that did the work is very reputable, and in business today. Concours correct Factory style Gardner exhaust with the OEM style Transverse muffler (expensive!). The correct carburetor has been re-built. The original "W" marked aluminum intake manifold is in place, and the Exhaust manifolds are original......and were NOT replaced with headers as so many others have been. Brand new AC / Delco Battery. Again, Re-build occurred at 23.5k miles, so this engine only has 1000 miles on it since re-build. Needless to say, this 360HP LT1 Chevrolet small block 350 runs very strong. 4.11 gears in the 12 Bolt Rear end, and the 1970 Z28 was the only small block Chevrolet Camaro to get a 12 bolt rear end. M22 Rock Crusher Transmission shifts perfectly, and its' synchronisers were adjusted at time of engine re-build by the same shop. All I have done is lubricate the correct Hurst shifter. Clutch is perfect. Steering is nice and tight, with no slop in the steering box. Original interior with no extra speakers etc. (i removed after market speakers and replaced the package tray with a Concours correct replacement). Correct AM radio. I have the original smog pump (see photo of it and the air pump rails in a box) and the original tail pipes, along with the original wood grain dash face and original spare good year bias ply tire and jack accessories. The under chassis has just been freshened up which before retained its original orange oxide primer. The shocks were replaced with new AC / Delco units. Original floor pans. Paint has been touched up on the edge of the floor pans, and the door jams, the cowl (hence the paint on the Cowl tag that was scraped off) and a couple a few other places. Sheet metal is superb, and NO rust anywhere, including the trunk area. Car has the more rare, taller version of the rear spoiler for 1970. I have a photo (old Kodak snap shot!) of the car in the early 1970's with this in place. Correct 8k Tachometer, 150 MPH Speedometer, (both optimistic! :)) Horn, heater, exterior lights, interior lights, wipers and gauges work correctly. CLOCK is even running.

Porsche wins the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sun, Jun 14 2015The question going into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans was whether or not the Porsche 919 Hybrid would be able to combine its qualifying pace with race reliability. After battling neck-and-neck with Audi's R18 for most of the race, the answer is a resounding yes. Not only did Porsche drivers climb the first two spots on the podium, they did so without any major mishaps on track. This win is the first overall trophy for Porsche since 1998. Audi previously won the last five races, and 13 of the last 15. Corvette also returned to the winner's circle, with the No. 64 C7.R taking winning the GTE Pro division. The victory is the first class win for Corvette since 2011. KCMG won the LMP2 class in ninth overall. With 45 minutes to go the No. 98 Aston Martin crashed out of first place in GTE Amateur, giving the class win to SMP Racing's Ferrari and second place to the Patrick Dempsey Racing Porsche 911 RSR. For the full list of official results, click here. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. For most of the race, the battle at the top went back and forth between the two German manufacturers. An tire puncture in the No. 7 Audi gave up the lead to Porsche, and moments later a crash forced the No. 8 into the garage. But a three-minute replacement of the front and rear bodywork kept the Audi in contention. As the race wore into the night, Porsche maintained a slightly faster pace than Audi. Nick Tandy took the lead on Lap 253 early Sunday morning, and car No. 19 never gave up the top position. The win is the first for all three drivers of the No. 19 – Nico Hulkenberg, Earl Bamber, and Nick Tandy. A lap behind in second was the No. 17 Porsche. The Audis fought reliability problems late in the race but still finished third with the No. 7 R18. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. As the Aston Martin cars dropped away, the lone Corvette Racing entry took over, followed by a charging AF Corse team Ferrari 458 Italia. The Corvette and Ferrari continued to trade places in the final hours until gearbox trouble forced the No. 51 Ferrari out of contention. It was eventually passed by the other AF Corse car, No. 71. Nissan experienced all the pain of a first-year effort with its front-wheel-drive GT-R LM Nismo.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
