I believe this car to be an ex-drag car.  Has a strong running sbc engine and an automatic trans that has reverse but no forward.  The body shows good in photos but is an older restoration and will need attention again.  The floors will need replaced also.  Someone patched them back in the day.  Could just put carpet down and call it good, but i prefer to do a car like this the right way.  No drivers door glass and the left rear door glass is cracked.  Rest of the glass is good and in tack.  ALL of the body trim is on the car.  The bumpers are straight and could use new chrome.  Some lights work.  Interior is gutted but still has the folding rear seat.  It has had a fuel cell put in instead of the regular gas tank, probably due to being raced.  Brakes are up and working great.  I have the interior stainless for the door panels but no panels. I also have the inside window surrounds.  The car is a Project and should be considered as one.  Its a great start on a car and priced as such.  Im sure im forgetting alot of stuff that any serious buyer would want to know so i am including my Cell number in the description so u can call and talk directly to me.  Feel free to ad it to ur "watch list" so i can weed out and tire kickers... thats who usually watches auctions and not bids. The car has been stored for many years and has just recently been available to the public for sale.  I have it listed here AND on a few local sites, so if it sells locally I WILL DELETE ALL BIDS AND END THE AUCTION.  Im doing a short auction because i dont expect it to last long and i dont see any reason to drag out auctions.  If ur serious, please call the number and i can answer any and all questions u might have and also send u any detailed photos u might need.  989-670-2700

EcoCar3 will convert Camaro to bitchin' eco rides

Sat, Apr 26 2014

In the 47-year-history of the Chevrolet Camaro, there have been countless college-age kids spending a ton of time getting under the hood and souping 'em up. Now, General Motors is adding a twist to the concept by donating 16 Camaros for the EcoCar challenge that puts university teams together to wring out better fuel-efficiency out of various vehicles. No word on whether there will be donuts on anyone's lawn, as suggested by 80's punks the Dead Milkmen, but the idea's never a bad one. EcoCar3 will feature 16 teams such as Arizona State, Penn State, Ontario's University of Waterloo and, of course, Detroit's Wayne State University. They'll spend the next four years "[reducing] environmental impact, while maintaining the muscle and performance expected from this iconic American car," as the EcoCar organizers say. The goal is to maintain body design and safety standards while boosting efficiency and lowering emissions, but the actual process is far more complicated than that description suggests. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Bosch are among the sponsors of the contest, which is also put on by the US Department of Energy and managed by Argonne National Laboratory. Penn State won Year Two of the three-year EcoCar 2 competition with its E85 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle converted out of a Chevy Malibu. The grand-prize winner of EcoCar2 will be announced in June. Check out the EcoCar3 website and see the announcement video below for more details. This content is hosted by a third party.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
