1980 Camaro Z28 Running Driving Solid Car With Video on 2040-cars
Johnson City, Tennessee, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1980 Camaro Z28. I purchased this car with the intentions of restoring it. I simply don't have the time and it has set in my garage for way to long. I will begin by asking that you don't judge a book by its cover. The car has set in the carport for a long time as you can tell by the paint. The paint is extremely faded. The benefit has it has been somewhat protected from the elements. The body is really solid. By the pictures I hope you can see that they're no rust holes except the rear trunk extension behind the rear glass as can be seen in the pictures and hopefully video if I can get it on here. The body has places that the paint has chipped and surface rust is present. The passenger side rear floor pan has a very small amount of rust as can also be seen in pictures. A small patch would be all that would be needed, it is in no way in need of a replacement pan. The hood air induction still opens as it should. The trunk lid will not stay up as I believe the bars may have came loose. That also is a simple fix. The interior is really decent for the year. It will need carpet. Headliner is in good shape. The rear side panels are faded and the old window tint is in need of replacement as it isn't even dark anymore. It has tilt column and is tight. The engine I believe is a 350 ( I will try and run the numbers and find exactly what is. Has small cam, headers, aluminum intake and Holley 4bbl carb. The engine runs good with no noises and no smoke and is really strong. Has a good sounding exhaust note. The carb does have a slight hesitation until it warms up. Hit the key and it fires right up without hesitation. The transmission shifts solid and firm. I cant tell you the exact gear but I would guess at least a 3:73 judging by driving it. It will leave two black makes as long as you want to hold it. The car drives and handles well but does has a pinhole leak in the power steering hose. Car stops good. With the exception of the tires being cracked from age and setting I would drive it anywhere. All lights and signals work. This car is solid and after a set of tires can be driven anywhere. Paint and carpet and you will have a nice cruiser. I am sure I am forgetting several thing but I will update as I remember. I have a open clear Tennessee title in hand. Last time titled was in 07 and has been setting most of the time since then. The mileage is 101000 and will go up as I drive it. If I can answer any questions please ask. I am setting a reserve and is well worth it. I will not disclose the reserve as it wouldn't be fair to others. If it doesn't meet the reserve then I will keep it. This car is NOT for sale locally and I will not be ending the auction early because of that. Saying that the winning bid gets the car. Please be serious if you bid, no reason to place a bid if you aren't serious. Please if you are close you are more than welcome to come inspect the car. I will put pictures on but if you want certain shots please let me know. Thanks for looking.

Fullsize GM SUVs have a problem that's making owners sick
Thu, Dec 31 2015Some fullsize SUV owners are getting sick, thanks to a buffeting and vibration problem in 2015 model year examples of the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, Cadillac Escalade, and GMC Yukon. According to owners' complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue can vary from an annoying vibration inside the cabin to an experience so severe that it leads to dizziness and headaches. General Motors is aware of the complaints, but the fix isn't so simple. According to spokesperson Tom Wilkinson to Autoblog, the company "has been tracking this issue for a while." The problem has a fairly low incidence rate, but when it does occur the issue can be "uncomfortable and annoying for owners." There's no precise cause for the issue, Wilkinson claims, and in some cases, simply balancing the tires or changing the door seals can make it go away. However, not all of the fixes are so simple. AutoGuide dug deep into the problem and discovered a GM preliminary information bulletin that advised dealers to remove the headliner and to check the roof's bonds to the bows that go across the vehicle. However, that document included a note that the solution might not entirely eliminate things. According to AutoGuide, adding Dynamat insulation to the roof sometimes helped the problem. A GM spokesperson also told AutoGuide the company fixed the problem at the end of the 2015 model year, and didn't go into any more detail. This roof issue seems linked to some of the worst droning in these SUVs. According to one complaint from a 2015 Suburban owner to NHTSA: "Roof will not remain attached to the roof bows. This causes the buffeting similar to a window being down when all are up. The results span from annoying to painful." A 2015 Yukon owner claims to have another alleged cause for the problem in a NHTSA complaint from February 2015. This person brought their SUV to the dealer seven times over the course of four weeks for vibrations. The dealer replaced the driveshaft, suspension components, and more, but nothing worked. According to an engineer to the service adviser: "In an effort to prevent roll overs, they designed the frame and body mounts too stiff. There are 40 engineers working on issues, they have no solutions that work across the board." Wilkinson told Autoblog that GM is working with customers on an individual basis to rectify things. Since these are newer vehicles, dealers should also fix the problem under warranty.

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
