1973 Chevy Camaro Z-28. Very nice drive car, engine is a 400 small block with aluminum heads and roll rockers, edelbrock performer RPM cam, lifters and intake. Quick fuel 750cfm carb, MSD distributer and accell wires. Griffin aluminum heavy duty radiator, 700r4 automatic overdrive transmission with shift kit and locking torque converter. Car gets around 18 miles per gallon on the interstate, has g-force cross member and new u-joins all installed with the transmission about 1000 miles ago. Engine is also fresh with around 1500 miles on it. I have installed the following new on the car, Coys wheels and tires, 17s in the front and 18s in the rear, full size spare, original wheel and brand new tire never on the road. All new brakes and lines with stainless braded lines to the calipers. Has front disc and rear drums. Read end is a posi 10 bolt with 373 gears. I have new carpet, headliner, speakers, stereo, steering wheel, shifter, gauges (out of another camaro), dash pad, installed the cowl hood, it is metal, headlights, bumpers, valance, door handles, door locks, new paint on the doghouse and the stripes were painted silver to match the wheels (they were black). It has Heidts sub frame connectors. Flowmaster exhaust and ceramic coated headers. You can get in this car and drive it for hours problem free. I have put several miles on the car over the past 10 years, but now mostly it sits in the garage covered up. This is a factory z-28, it was a factory 4-speed car. The clutch petal is still in the car and I have the driveshaft for it, my plan was to put a tremec 5 speed in it, I just never got around to if after I put in the overdrive some years ago. I am sure there is more I missed. The car has been driven, and has small chips and scratches, could use a freshen up on the seats and door panels, but is still a very nice car and gets looks and compliments everywhere I go in it. I just dont use it, my kids keep me busy enough.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head
Mon, Dec 29 2014Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
