Here we have for NO RESERVE auction a 1971 Camaro Sport Coupe. Car was made in CA in 1971. Desert car. I was going to fix this up with a buddy but we decided against it (due to the fact that he bought a similarly-optioned '70 Chevelle instead) and are now selling this one as a project car. The good news is that it is fairly complete. It is an A/C-optioned carwith condenser and evaporator stuff still there. It has headers, power steering pump, power disc brakes, 10-bolt posi drum brakes rear end, floor console shifter (SS-like). Glass is good; front windshield is cracked. Dash is all there with aftermarket radio. Some aftermarket gages. Good floors. Mainly surface rust. Has an exhaust system all the way to the back of the car. Good lights and fins at the back end of the car. Title was lost by previous owner, so selling as a very complete builder/parts car; last registered in Texas. Has mostly complete interior (door panels were removed by previous owner because they were in nasty shape). Seats may or may not be original to car, but a nice set nonetheless (my guess is they're not original). Back seats are original. Has a red rustoleum job from previous owner for rust prevention purposes, but this was a vinyl top car. Rear driver-side quarter needs a little help. Bumpers are non-pitted chrome (not show quality obviously). Doors good shape, very workable. Lots of parts in trunk like wiring, headlight buckets, hood hinge, parking lights, miscellaneous stuff. Car comes with roller wheels that hold air, nice old-school rims that nobody likes (hey but they're round and they roll so that's a plus). Nose of car has prior bodywork.

This is definitely a project car and we're not selling a running car. Look at pictures carefully. I can provide more at your request. If you're serious about seeing this car, it is located in West Texas, near the New Mexico border. We can hold the car for a little while, but we'll need a non-refundable deposit (see section below).

Very good start to a great looking strip car or daily cruiser. This is a GREAT builder/parts car; hard-to-find body style with many, many great and useable parts. Car comes with a bill of sale only. Definitely AS-IS condition with no warranty implied herein. Good luck with bidding on this piece of American muscle.

12-15-13:

For all of you that have asked to end the auction early, I will not do so. This is a NO RESERVE auction, last bid wins it.

2015 Chevy Silverado Custom Sport is subtle in black

Mon, Jan 12 2015

In a world where trucks are growing bigger, bolder grilles and more muscle-bound looks, Chevrolet is trying something a bit different with its recently revealed Custom Sport edition for the 2015 Silverado at the this year's Detroit Auto Show. The edition leans on being understated, instead of screaming about its abilities. The design is supposed to be a throwback to the Chevy Custom Sport Trucks of the late '60s that brought a touch of elegance to these usually utilitarian vehicles at the time. The heart of the package is its monochromatic body-color touches for the bumpers and grille surround. The one on display at the show is especially attractive with a chrome-accented black grille that fits perfectly with the rest of the body. The edition does get a bit more shine with chrome covering the 20-inch wheels, door handles, mirror caps and side moldings. In addition, buyers get projector beam headlights, tow hooks and heated power mirrors. The custom package is available on the LT trim in black or white and on the LTZ in black or White Diamond Tricoat. Take a look at this monochromatic take on the Silverado as it sits in the Motor City. 2015 SILVERADO OFFERS CUSTOM SPORT PACKAGE Inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks that helped launch personal-use pickups DETROIT, 07/01/15 – With the new 2015 Silverado Custom Sport special edition, Chevrolet pays homage to one of its most iconic pickups, adding a sophisticated monochromatic look to double- and crew-cab Silverados. The Custom Sport package features body-colored front and rear bumpers and a body-colored grille surround with a chrome-accented black grille. Other accents include 20-inch chrome wheels, chrome door handles and mirror caps, and chrome body-side moldings. The package also includes projector beam headlamps, tow hooks and heated power-adjusted mirrors. "The Custom Sport special edition was inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks of the late 1960s," said Sandor Piszar, Chevrolet Trucks marketing director. "Those CST models added a touch of elegance to a great all-around truck, just like the Custom Sport package for the new Silverado." The redesigned 1967 Chevrolet pickup entered the market at a time when trucks were starting to move off the jobsites and into the driveways of cities and suburbs. The 1967 Custom Sport Truck, with its bright trim, plush carpet and bucket seats, helped launch a wave of personal use pickups that continues today.

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
