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****

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

Do you guys like trucks?

Wed, Jan 17 2018

Do you guys like trucks? If the answer is yes, boy do we have the show for you! The 2018 North American International Auto Show is lousy with 'em. Yeah, we saw the new Ram 1500, Chevy Silverado and Ford Ranger, but that's just scratching the surface. There are big trucks, little trucks, clean trucks, dirty trucks, old trucks, new trucks, red trucks, blue trucks. It's like a Dr. Seuss book. Anyway, we made a little video for you truck nuts (see what I did there?). Check it out above, and if you're looking for more serious coverage of the Detroit Auto Show, we've got it, along with a ton of images and other videos from the show floor. Enjoy!

Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra could get independent rear suspension

Fri, Jan 3 2020

The Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra could reportedly receive a variant of the four-link independent rear suspension found under the new Tahoe and Suburban. While that's not a surprise, a recent report suggests electrification, not comfort, convinced General Motors to make the change. Replacing the time-tested solid rear axle with an independent suspension will improve comfort, handling and off-road prowess, while adding weight, and likely making the trucks a little bit more expensive. It's a fair trade-off, but GM Authority learned the real reason for the swap is that at least one of the pickups will spawn an electric model, and it's more difficult to package a bulky battery pack around a solid rear axle. The independent rear suspension takes up far less space, even if it has more moving parts. General Motors will build its first regular-production electric pickup on an evolution of the Silverado's T1 platform named BT1, according to the same source. The b stands for -- you guessed it -- batteries. The firm reportedly doesn't want to make two suspensions for cost reasons, so the independent setup will come standard regardless of whether the truck runs on gasoline, diesel, or electricity. As a bonus, Chevrolet and GMC could choose to offer their T1-based trucks with Magnetic Ride Control or an air suspension, options available on the 2021 Suburban and Tahoe. The independent rear suspension will also find its way to the next-generation GMC Yukon due to be revealed January 14, and to the 2021 Cadillac Escalade scheduled to make its debut February 4. The long-rumored, born-again Hummer will get it, too, because it will arrive as an electric model built on the BT1 platform. It's worth noting none of this is official, and General Motors has remained quiet about what's next for its new suspension design, and what will be under its electric truck's sheet metal. If the GM Authority report is accurate, the Silverado (pictured) and the Sierra could ditch their solid rear axle for the 2021 model year. The change will likely be accompanied by other tweaks inside and out. Featured Gallery 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 View 16 Photos Chevrolet GMC Truck
