Offered up for sale is a nice 69 camaro big block project car....The car is extremely solid with most of the hard work already done...I bought this car out of Arkansas...When I bought it it had some small holes in the floors so I had the floor pans done and then coated with por 15....The trunk had some surface rust so I por 15 that as well....The rear 1/4s and front fenders have some small spots but it is nothing like half the cars I've been seeing on ebay.....This car started life as a 6cyl column shift plane jane camaro....Since I've had it I have had the following things done
swapped rear for a 10 bolt posi, new multi leaf rear springs, new front coil springs, new center link & tie rods, switched front spindles to disc, new body bushings, new big block heater core, switched column to a floor shift column, added the copo style steel wheels, replaced inner front fenders, installed a 396 / 402 with a th400, switched steering box from manual to power, Also new hooker super comp coated headers, I'm sure there are a couple other things I can't think of at the moment....
.The car is mostly complete but does still need some things....Things I can think of now are
Dash pad, rug, shifter, exhaust, shocks, battery , hoses , cap & wires etc...
There are things that need to be done that are basically just labor
install radiator, starter, booster & master, drive shaft, tranny mount and a bunch of other little misc tasks like that...
As you can see, a couple more weekends of work and she can be up and running......
If you are local and would like to look at it, or want to discuss it in more detail email me your phone number and I will call you

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors
Wed, Oct 22 2014Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise – in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
