Up for sale is my 1971 Camaro Z28. Car was a rust free CA (built in CA and spent most of it's time there til 1999). It still retains all of it's orig. sheet metal & trim w/ one older professional repaint. Car was disassembled, stripped and resprayed the orig. placer gold w/ correct blk stripes.  All the gaps on the hood, doors and trunk are as they were in 1971. Orig undercoating remains underneath. There are a few small bubbles that surfaced not long after it was painted on the lower quarters, but have not gotten any worse over the yrs. Orig. #'s matching motor was removed a few yrs. ago, rebuilt and has since been stored. The orig. shortblock is .30 over, balanced and blueprinted, forged pistons, orig. LT1 rods, cleavite bearings & ARP bolts. The current motor is a rebuilt 1969 350 block w/ the orig heads and intake from the #'s matching motor, 350/350 hydraulic cam which runs very strong. Ceramic coated headers lead into correct style Z28 exhaust. Trans is a period correct close ratio m21 (non #'s) and the rear has been upgraded to a 12 bolt (non #'s) 3.73 posi. Body bushings and frt suspension are all upgraded to polyurethane. New springs frt and rear. New period correct Goodyear polyglas f-60 tires. Orig. Z28 rims have been powder coated. Interior is mostly orig. & in excellent cond. Saddle cloth seats were redone at one pt. Tach and amp guage are not working.  I have all orig documentation for the car. Orig window sticker, build sheet, owners manual, financing paperwork and protecto plate. I wanted a clean 2nd gen to resto mod, but decided this car was to orig and unmolested. Only 4 owners since new. Car is a driver, not a trailer queen. It has been on the Hot Rod Power Tour two times (2009 & 2011). Turn key and drive anywhere. Too much to list. Must see. This is a 43 yr old car & I have tried to be as accurate & honest as possible in the description. I encourage you to come & see the car as you will not be disappointed. This is NOT a clone, it's a very well documented real Z. Additional pics/info available upon request.

Nissan Leaf has 2nd-best sales month ever, Chevy Volt does a 2013 repeat [UPDATE]

Tue, Apr 1 2014

UPDATE: The official press release says that "Volt [sales were] up 7 percent," but Randy Fox let AutoblogGreen know that this is simply due to a change in the fleet/retail mix between March 2013 and 2014. The actual number sold was exactly the same in the two months. A month ago, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said he expected to see the Leaf's sales momentum continue into March. It wasn't a big leap, since January and February were slow sales months in 2013 (around 640 each) before a big climb to 2,200 in March. In 2014, the first two months of the year were better (around 1,300 each) but Nissan can still be happy that the Leaf just had the best March ever and its second-highest sales month ever, with 2,507 sold. That's a 12.1 percent increase from 2013 and Perry said in a statement to AutoblogGreen that one reason is all of the buyers who are becoming evangelists for the vehicle. "We've also seen an increase in showroom traffic as we enhanced our marketing presence in March," he said. Nissan pointed to cities like Washington, DC, Raleigh-Durham, NC and urban areas in Texas as strong Leaf markets last month. On the Chevy Volt front, January and February were also slow months in 2014, down roughly half from the 2,000-ish the plug-in hybrid was selling at the end of 2013. For 2014, sales were up slightly from the first two months of the year and Chevy spokesman Randy Fox told AutoblogGreen that the March number was "pretty flat, year-over-year." Even with that warning, we were surprised to see the total come in at 1,478. Why's that? Because the total for March 2013 was ... 1,478. So, yeah, that's pretty steady even if there were 26 selling days in March period this year compared to 27 last year. As always, our more complete report of last month's green car sales will be coming soon. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet GM Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales

2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas

Wed, Oct 29 2014

Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
