Car Description: 1979 Camaro, believed to be Berlinetta model in addition to Z28 but unable to verify.  We purchased this year after going to Several Car shows and deciding we wanted a classic car to restore as a show car.  Problem is, we weren't ready for such a task.  This car was purchased from the second owner of the car from Hagerstown, MD.  He purchased to form into a drag car but was unable to complete so was selling it.  They rebuilt the original matching numbered engine from "bottom up."  During this time they removed A/C and heater and did not replace.  Otherwise, the car frame is solid, transmission is smooth, and it rides and drives great.  I had our mechanic, who loves the older model cars, check it over.  He had to replace the power steering line because of a leak and the parts supplied did not exactly fit after trying several different auto parts stores but now just has small, not noticeable, drip from power steering.  Otherwise, he checked out everything and engine was solid, he thinks they have a "mild Cam" (i know little about engines and cars, hence selling it, but apparently this gives the engine even more power.  The transmission and frame were also solid.  We have had it several months and have Antique tags on it.  My 13 year old son loves it, so him an I go for Sunday drives or pick up ice cream or pizza sometimes and it starts every time and drives beautifully.  IT IS FAST and if you give it some gas, their is no delay in moving down the road quickly.  The exterior paint job is not perfect but not bad either, close up, you can find some flaws but just driving down the street, we get comments all the time on how "cool" the car is.  The interior isn't bad either, the dash and front seats need the most work, the rear seats are just about mint and carpet is newly replaced.  for the most part, it appears to be all original except for new carpet, stereo that doesn't work, and the seat covers on the front seats (however bucket seats themselves, are original).  If you have ever wanted a good looking camaro, corvette, nova, firebird, GTO, etc, this is a decent muscle car to look at and drive!


Buyer:  Please don't bid on this item unless you intend to purchase.  I have sold very few items on ebay and never a car so will work with you however I can to the best of my ability but be prepared to handle or arrange shipping / pick-up.  I am willing to discuss meeting to pick-up and have no worries of driving the car.  10% of the winning bid is due immediately and is nonrefundable.  Full payment is due within 72 hours via paypal or in person with cash, M.O., cashiers check, etc (no personal checks).  Do not bid if you do not have a good ebay rating or are not serious.  Please due your research, this is not a show car by any means but it could easily be used as a daily or casual driver.  

Thanks and happy bidding.  I can be contacted via email or phone 540-820-0974 (please no scams and no texting)

***NOTE- the vehicle location is in Harrisonburg, Va 22801, not Stephens City, VA 22655.  I have attempted to change this and it will not let me.  Please be aware, if this is a problem for any bidders up to the time of this notation (sunday 8/11 at 1020pm), I can be sure the vehicle is in Stephens City, VA for P/u/shiping****

Recharge Wrap-up: Volt makes up third of Quebec Chevy dealerships sales, Tesla seeks Aussie talent

Wed, Nov 5 2014

A Chevrolet dealership in Quebec has had the Volt make up 35 percent of its sales so far this year. Bourgeois Chevrolet in Rawdon, Quebec received recognition for the feat at the 2014 Electric Vehicle Conference, where it won the award for Leading Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Dealership. To sell that many, Bourgeois Chevrolet had to import used Volts from the US, and keeps about 50 units on the lot in various configurations. The conference also saw Park Avenue Nissan of Brossard, Quebec win the Leading Battery Electric Vehicle Dealership Award, and Loch Lomond Mitsubishi of Saint John, New Brunswick receive the award for Electric Vehicle Dealership Inspiration.

Ford, General Motors and Toyota have announced that they will shut down their Australian factories, leaving behind a lot of unused talent. Tesla recently held a "Recruiting Open House" in Melbourne for engineers to fill positions at its plant in Fremont, CA, where they will be paired with other Aussie engineers already on staff.

Valeo recently showed an electric turbo it plans to supply to an unnamed automaker at a fuel economy showcase event at the EPA's National Vehicle Emissions and Fuel Lab. Electric turbochargers have the advantage of greatly reduced lag when compared to exhaust-driven turbos. They also work well when paired with cylinder deactivation, providing a much-needed boost when driving on a grade, which can help reduce the need for cylinders to reactivate. Independence from the exhaust system also makes it easier to package the turbocharger wherever there is room. Read more from Navigant Research. US crude oil futures have dropped to their lowest in more than two years. Saudi Arabia cut oil costs for the US and raised them for Europe and Asia as the US has increased output.

GM is quietly slashing prices on base models

Fri, Jan 30 2015

While General Motors' fourth quarter financial figures haven't yet been released, the automaker seems to be weathering a potentially rocky time well, even beating third-quarter projections last year. To keep the climb going, the company is launching new base trims for several popular models that make them cheaper than ever but with tight dealer margins. The new entry-level trims are the Chevrolet Cruze L, Equinox L, GMC Terrain SL and Buick LaCrosse 1SV. Buyers lose some content by picking them, but the prices are slashed. According to Cars Direct, the biggest savings are on the LaCrosse, where customers pay $31,065, plus $925 destination, $2,570 less than the previous base 1SB trim but must accept things like 17-inch wheels and no cargo net in the back. If you're wondering how Buick can remove only a little equipment but cut the price so much, it's because the company also slashed dealer margins. According to Cars Direct, the difference between the invoice and MSRP for the LaCrosse 1SV is only around $150, compared to around $1,350 before. The disparity is even greater for the Cruze with an $81 difference in the prices, compared to about $600 for the LS version. Showrooms are expected to keep very low stocks of these trims, though. "Dealers use such vehicles to get people in the door, but they do not generally want to do high volumes of these strippers. The margins are next to nothing; they don't make much money off these cars," said Ed Kim, Vice President of Industry Analysis for AutoPacific to Autoblog. Dealers are also expected to advertise that these new base trims undercut major competitors. For example, the Cruze L rings up for about $2,320 less than a Honda Civic LX, according to Cars Direct. One potential drawback for buyers is that these models might not be eligible for incentives. While the attractive prices might get customers into dealers, folks may not actually end up driving home with these entry-level models. Kim indicated base trims also make up a small portion of the sales mix. "Consumers aren't asking for stripped out vehicles, even at the low end of the marketplace," he said.
