1985 Camaro Iroc-z on 2040-cars
Ocklawaha, Florida, United States
|
Ok,up for bidding is my 85 Iroc-Z..it is all original other than the
paint,tires,battery,carpet,headliner and stereo..it was recently re
painted and was done right..doors were removed,all interior
removed..etc.. Basically the complete car was taken apart other than
drivetrain,painted
in pieces and re assembled with some new parts that needed replaced..things that were replaced are as follows. Door to window weatherstripping.(window sweeps) Front windshield(safelite) Trunk/hatch seal(lone star) Exterior door handles.(a+auto) Carpet(acc auto carpets) Headliner(installed the new style ABS plastic backing board and reupholstered in factory correct material)(acme brand) the rear speaker covers were also reupholstered in the same material Tires..245/50/16 (falkens) Wheel centercaps( GM licensed parts) Parking light housings(brand new GM parts) Fog light grill(brand new GM part) Door hinge bushings,rollers and pins(hawks 3rd gen) That's all that had to be replaced,everything else was still in great condition and just needed cleaning.. Re assembly was done very carefully and put back to all factory specs.The power drivers seat works in all 6 positions and both front seats still even have the plastic covers that Chevrolet added to cover the ugly metal seat tracks.The doors open and close beautifully..just like they were when the car was new. The rear window louvers I was told were original to the car too but I do not see them included on the window sticker or the invoice so I don't know for sure if they were or not..they come with the car regardless and can easily be removed if you don't like them. I have the clean carfax report on the car that was done on 4/10/2014..it has been a Florida car it's entire life and it shows..I also have the dealership invoice and window sticker for the car so anyone can see that this is a true legitimate Iroc-Z and not just any car wrapped in stickers and badges..it is not showroom condition underneath but is very clean and rust free..still sports the original exhaust system and catalytic converter..just had a synthetic oil change,all suspension greased and brakes gone through..one of the wheel cylinders were leaking so they were both replaced..has the original Iroc aluminum drums on the rear brakes. The original wheels are in great shape with very minor scrapes on the lip of one front..none are cracked or bent.. The interior as you can see in the pics is almost absolutely perfect..the front seatbelts are a little dirty and there are 2 very small cracks in the plastic stitching on the driver side..not too bad for a nearly 30 year old car.. The dash pad is in excellent condition with no visible cracks..(there is one small crack just behind the windshield on the driver side that is not even noticeable..if anyone wants to see a pic of this crack I will gladly add a photo of it. All options the car came with can be seen in the pic of the dealer invoice I have attached and everything it came with is still on/in the car and in working condition except the factory floor mats..those are long gone.. The bad on this car..it has the notorious chevrolet puff of smoke at start up from bad valve seals..car has been stored quite awhile and thus causing the seals to dry out and most likely break..the power mirrors are not working,I am assuming the control switch is bad..and the air conditioning works but when it is running the compressor clutch constantly runs engaged..it does not cycle on and off like it's designed to do..not sure if this can really be classified as a (bad) thing since it is in working condition and blows super cold,just want all information disclosed that I am aware of. One thing it could probably use besides the valve seals is new front sway bar bushings..they look pretty worn and sloppy..I have a new set that will be included with the car..I may even put them on the car if my time permits.. And lastly,the power antenna does not go down.. Other than that,everything seems fine with the car,the engine is very strong and responsive..the transmission shifts smooth..and the car handles awesome!! Also has the original spare tire with the jack and the inflator can for the spacesaver spare tire. I am selling this car to build a convertible camaro that I had to have..otherwise I would just keep it hidden in my garage and drive it occasionally.Unfortunately I don't have room to keep them both. Car will come with the history report,the dealer invoice,the window sticker,owners manual and the sales brochure booklet. Here is some of the history I found on the rarity of the color..this information I obtained from The iroc zone..it is a website dedicated to documentation and just for enghusiasts of these cars. 1985 was the introduction year of the iroc-z and was also the introduction year of the 215 hp. tuned port injection engine..of all 21,177 Irocs produced in its first year only around 3,000 of them were painted in the code 50 yellow. This is everything I can think of that I know about the car so,as always,feel free to ask any questions and I will get them answered ASAP..if you want to talk to me one on one just message me a name,number and best time to call. Thank you

On May-06-14 at 18:15:23 PDT, seller added the following information: I just want to add some info here..I didn't prepare this listing very well and I apologize for adding the info now,but I cannot make edits on the mobile app so had to wait until I could do it from home pc....like I said to begin with,I want to disclose everything I know about the car.If I would have known there would be this much activity on the listing this early I would have spent more time proofreading it and taken notes before posting..here are the things I want to mention. On May-07-14 at 16:11:17 PDT, seller added the following information: Hi,just adding an update for everyone that is interested and have been watching this...I tried the new tach filter and oil pressure switch today and no luck,the oil pressure gauge and tachometer are still reading higher than they should be..so looks like some attention to the gauge cluster itself will be required if it bothers the new owner that they do not read accurately..the battery,fuel and temp gauges all seem to be reading accurately.. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt CarPlay video, Tesla Supercharger importance
Fri, Feb 5 2016A video demonstrates Apple CarPlay on the touch display in the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. The Volt's eight-inch (bigger than an iPad Mini) capacitive display is capable of putting Siri and your iPhone apps and right at your fingertips. It's "the best CarPlay display I've seen," says the user in the video. In case you're not in the market for a new Volt, 9to5Mac offers some of its favorite aftermarket CarPlay screens. See the video above, and read more at 9to5Mac. A single Supercharger can make a big difference in the life of a Tesla owner. Teslarati's Electric Jen talks about purchasing a Model S, being assured by both Tesla employees and the map of planned Supercharger sites that one would be built along an important route for her. With the construction being pushed back, it made visiting family tricky. "As if owning such a grand car isn't embarrassing enough, asking for a ride to drop off and pick up said car because you can't make it home without charging really made me feel awkward," she says. "You see, one single charging location can mean the world to some people," Jen adds. Read the whole article at Teslarati. Tesla once had considered creating mobile range extender trailers for the Model S. Elon Musk touched upon the abandoned idea during his visit to Paris. While Tesla ultimately dismissed the concept, Nomadic Power has taken the opportunity to hitch their product onto the Tesla brand. "We are delighted, that Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk is thinking about a concept like ours for even more extending the range of the Tesla models," says Nomadic Power's CEO Manfred Baumgaertner. He adds, "This confirms our approach to build a long distance mobility provider for all electric vehicles on the market." If you say so, Baumgaertner.

When the batteries have degraded to the point that they're no longer suitable for use on the road, they still have a significant capacity that can be used for other purposes. Still useful for stationary storage, they can be used to support charging sites in order to allow for faster charging. The stationary batteries can charge slowly at the site, but then offer up the juice in a hurry when it's needed for a vehicle. Read more from Renault.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
Weekly Recap: Volvo buys Polestar, makes performance a priority
Sat, Jul 18 2015Volvo is taking its performance business in-house, and the Swedish carmaker announced Tuesday that it bought tuning company Polestar, which has long been known for producing sporty Volvos. The move allows Volvo to ramp up its performance business, and it plans to increase Polestar-branded vehicle sales to 1,000 to 1,500 annually, up from the 750 total projected for this year. The companies have been working together on motorsports projects since 1996. Financial terms of the sale were not released, and Polestar workers will move over to Volvo. Former Polestar owner Christian Dahl will keep control of the Polestar racing team and operate it under a new name. In addition to sales volume, Volvo has ambitious plans for other parts of Polestar, including its aftermarket business. Volvo also said it will use its twin-engine hybrid technology for Polestar models in the future, though specifics and timing were not revealed. Meanwhile, Volvo announced it will offer a run of 265 total Polestars in the United States for the 2016 model year, with S60 and V60s available. "Driving a Volvo Polestar is a special experience. We have decided to bring this experience to more Volvo drivers, placing the full resources of Volvo behind the development of Polestar as the model name for our high performance cars," Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson said in a statement. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, get nose jobs Automakers tend to refer to light updates as 'facelifts,' and that's exactly what Chevy gave the 2016 Silverado and GMC Sierra. Chevy slightly changed the front end of the truck. Using the one photo released of the new Z71 model as a guide, we can see that the headlights went from a stacked vertical design to single bulbs, and they are set on top of LED running lights. The grille has more body-colored elements instead of shiny metal, and the hood has a new line running down the middle (look really closely). The design theme will be similar across the portfolio, though materials and details will vary, a spokesman said. Some models, like the High Country and LTZ will have more chrome, and the LEDs are only for the upper trims. Chevy also said it will use the eight-speed automatic transmission on more versions of the Silverado, and it updated the MyLink feature to support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
