Up for sale is a 1979 Z28 Camaro. This was my project for the last 14 months and just got it on the road 2 weeks ago. It has a ton of new parts/paint which I will list below as well as some needs which I will also list. It is powered by a good running 355 Chevy with a mild cam and a 4 speed manual transmission. With the Flowmaster exhaust is sounds aggressive.
The Good:
Body work and paint completed May 2013- this included replacing a rocker panel, stripping car to bare metal and then painting it white. Interior was completely removed and floors were repaired. Brand new carpet was installed, interior was dyed black. Brand new interior door panels, window cranks, and brand new weather stripping. My mechanic went through cars wiring and replaced and corrected the electrical in the car. The hood scoop is off of an 81 Camaro with the air induction. Hood hinges and door hinges were replaced-new. I also put a lot of money into making this car safe. I bought a brand new brake booster, brand new stainless steel brake lines for front and rear along with brand new brake hoses for front and rear. New rotors, calipers, along with new brake pads. I also replaced the front springs and shocks on the car along with some of the front suspension parts (tie rods, sway bar, etc). New plugs, wires, new headers, Brand new Flowmaster exhaust- true duals with an X-Pipe. The car has brand new 17" polished rims along with a new set of 235-45-17 tires (less than 100 miles).
The bad-
I am going to try to list every thing even if it seems small. I will start with the interior- The windshield has 2 rock hits (pictured), headliner could probably use replacing at some point (has a small hole (smaller than dime), small tear in dash (pictured), no AC, no radio, fuel gauge doesn't work, speedometer slightly off, gauge cluster may need to be replaced, center console not perfect (not bad), and the sunroof will leak slightly in the rain. Exterior- The rear spoiler has a small crack, The Z28 flares are not 100% lined up, the Z28 stripes were not installed perfectly (some creases here and there, but not bad), windshield wipers don't work.
Any questions please ask. I have put a lot of money into this car, but it will need a little more to be perfect. Not a show quality car, but a great weekend driver. I wish I could keep, but am forced to sell. It gets a ton of looks and a lot of thumbs up as I drive around town the past 2 weeks.
I HAVE SET THE RESERVE PRICE LOW (less than half the money I put into it) SO PLEASE BID- I am located 5 minutes from O'hare airport in Chicago. I reserve the right to end the bid early if sold locally.

Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition
Sat, Dec 13 2014To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:
GM recalling 15k midsize pickups over leaky brakes
Mon, Jun 8 2015General Motors has announced a recall in coordination with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration related to the brakes on the 2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. In the 14,838 units in the United States estimated to be affected, the front brake calipers may be leaking fluid. Needless to say, that could make them less effective, which could hinder the vehicle's ability to stop in time to avoid a collision. The affected units were all manufactured between January 6 and December 24, 2014. The fix seems simple and straightforward enough, with dealers being instructed to inspect the front brake calipers, and replace them if necessary. See below for all the details from NHTSA. RECALL Subject : Brake Fluid Leak Report Receipt Date: MAY 12, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V278000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 14,838 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Chevrolet Colorado, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured January 6, 2014, to December 24, 2014. The affected vehicles may experience the front brake calipers leaking brake fluid. This is due to air pockets, an imperfection in the metal caliper body. CONSEQUENCE: If the vehicle experiences a brake fluid leak it can increase the stopping distance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the front-brake calipers if necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin July 10, 2015. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14888. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
