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****

The Corvette Museum sinkhole has been filled

Wed, Feb 11 2015

After swallowing eight of the most prized pieces of the collection from the National Corvette Museum, the massive sinkhole from a year ago is rapidly becoming nothing but a bad memory. Based on the museum's weekly construction update, you can barely see the remnants of the 25-foot deep hole once in the floor. The Corvette Museum's Skydome was not always going to look like this. The original hope was to keep the sinkhole there as a tourist attraction. That plan eventually fell through, though, and instead it was decided five of the less-damaged Corvettes would remain unrestored. Progress has been moving fast to get the repairs done. Even a month ago, the hole was still very visible, and the construction company used remote-controlled Bobcat loaders to fill it in. Now, the museum has launched a contest to guess how many tons of stone it took to fill in the massive crater. The winner gets a print of the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil being lifted out.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
