1970 Chevrolet Camaro on 2040-cars
Cranfills Gap, Texas, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : christopherpedroncelli@juno.com .
Complete numbers matching, documented, 24,500 original mile 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28. I have documented ownership history, (actually a three ring binder) OEM sales literature, owner's manual, Warranty (i.e. Protect O Plate) Kodak Photos of this car from years ago, extra keys, Parts and Repairs Receipts, and Z28 authenticity certificate. This is a Norwood built car, and so marked on the build tag. This is a survivor car that has been freshened up with an engine re-build 1000 miles ago in 2008. Re-built professionally to factory specifications. The correct heads received a Three angle valve job, and the engine has been fully balanced, line bored, and cylinder honing. New seals in heads and all new engine gaskets of course. I have receipts describing materials, and the exact engine work that was performed. Shop that did the work is very reputable, and in business today. Concours correct Factory style Gardner exhaust with the OEM style Transverse muffler (expensive!). The correct carburetor has been re-built. The original "W" marked aluminum intake manifold is in place, and the Exhaust manifolds are original......and were NOT replaced with headers as so many others have been. Brand new AC / Delco Battery. Again, Re-build occurred at 23.5k miles, so this engine only has 1000 miles on it since re-build. Needless to say, this 360HP LT1 Chevrolet small block 350 runs very strong. 4.11 gears in the 12 Bolt Rear end, and the 1970 Z28 was the only small block Chevrolet Camaro to get a 12 bolt rear end. M22 Rock Crusher Transmission shifts perfectly, and its' synchronisers were adjusted at time of engine re-build by the same shop. All I have done is lubricate the correct Hurst shifter. Clutch is perfect. Steering is nice and tight, with no slop in the steering box. Original interior with no extra speakers etc. (i removed after market speakers and replaced the package tray with a Concours correct replacement). Correct AM radio. I have the original smog pump (see photo of it and the air pump rails in a box) and the original tail pipes, along with the original wood grain dash face and original spare good year bias ply tire and jack accessories. The under chassis has just been freshened up which before retained its original orange oxide primer. The shocks were replaced with new AC / Delco units. Original floor pans. Paint has been touched up on the edge of the floor pans, and the door jams, the cowl (hence the paint on the Cowl tag that was scraped off) and a couple a few other places. Sheet metal is superb, and NO rust anywhere, including the trunk area. Car has the more rare, taller version of the rear spoiler for 1970. I have a photo (old Kodak snap shot!) of the car in the early 1970's with this in place. Correct 8k Tachometer, 150 MPH Speedometer, (both optimistic! :)) Horn, heater, exterior lights, interior lights, wipers and gauges work correctly. CLOCK is even running.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
Retro Wrong: MotorWeek shares first unaired pilot episode
Fri, Apr 17 2015MotorWeek is an automotive institution in the United States. We all have to get our start somewhere though, and for the latest entry in the Retro Review series, the show is releasing its unaired pilot for the first time. Even today, the program isn't necessarily the most exciting thing on TV, but the modern incarnation looks like Top Gear compared to this original, very monotone attempt. The cars on display are more interesting from a historical aspect than actually being behind the wheel. MotorWeek puts the Chevrolet Citation and Ford Fairmont head to head. If you want to see progress in the auto industry, look here. The Fairmont manages a rousing 85 horsepower from a 3.3-liter inline six, and the Citation does only a little better with a 115-hp, 2.8-liter V6. The other highlight comes at the end when John Davis talks about the cars of the future. These include the upcoming introduction of the Ford Escort in the US and the mention of a possible gasoline-electric hybrid from General Motors. Given this pilot, it's amazing MotorWeek ever got the green light. However, if you're a fan of auto history, seeing the news from the past is always fascinating.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
