1990 Chevrolet Camaro Rs 5.0l 5-speed Manual T-top on 2040-cars

Year:1990 Mileage:221445
Location:

Pinole, California, United States

Pinole, California, United States

Hello I'm selling this 1990 Chevrolet Camaro RS T-top 5.0 Engine, manual 5-speed. It has a lot of power and sounds great.  Car is being sold AS-IS. The car has been modified, which makes it nearly impossible to pass a California Smog Test. Starting bid is $1000 with no reserve.

Car Fax: I just ran a carfax report on this car,  vin# 1G1FP23E6LL111673 which showed the mileage as 221,445. There has been no accident/damage reported to CARFAX. I was informed the previous owner sold the car to Pick n Pull because of speeding tickets and the potential cost to switch back to stock to get it to pass a California smog. Also they said the previous owner drove the car to Pick N Pull (it was not towed to their location). It was on their lot for less than 24 hours, before I bought it.

History: It appears the previous owner was setting this car up to race. For example he switched it from a throttle body to edelbrock 1406 carburetor and performer intake. It has an electric fuel pump and smaller after market gas tank. Also, there's modified exhaust system and no catalytic converter on the car. Radio has been removed from car. It has a ton of potential. But I don't have any use for it. I need a reliable family car.

My experience: Transmission shifted fine for me. The wheels look nice in the picture, but they don't look that good in person. Also the wheels appears to be too big for the car. This car should be sold to someone who knows how to work on cars. It has some dings here and there which is why I listed it at a low price with no reserve. If I was into racing I would definitely keep this car but I need a reliable family car right now.
It's a California car. 

DMV:The issue with this car (in California) is being able to get it to pass smog. The way it is set up now, it's not able to pass smog (catatylic converter must be added, sensors to the engine has been disconnected) so the modifications would have to switched back to stock to pass a smog test.  If you have a stock engine for it, then that's great too. 

The previous owner had a clean title on this car. However, car was sold to a salvage yard, therefore the has a "salvage title".
 Check the Car Fax and you will see the Car has never been reported for a major accident. If you want to see the car fax I can mail it to you. Also you can see for yourself, here's the If you have any questions please ask. Thanks. 

Notes: Car is being sold as is. New owner is responsible for making arrangements to have the car shipped to his/her location.  I completed all paperwork with DMV yesterday. Therefore I should have Title in hand within 10 days.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

GM announces 3 new recalls affecting 1.7M vehicles in North America [w/video]

Mon, Mar 17 2014

Still embroiled in the ongoing ignition switch recall, General Motors announced today three more discrete recalls, affecting a grand total of 1,546,900 vehicles in the US. The Detroit News reports that some 1.7 million vehicles are affected overall in North America. The first and largest of the trio of new recalls concerns some 1.18-million Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia crossovers from the 2008-2013 model years, Chevrolet Traverse from 2009-2013 (pictured above) and Saturn Outlook vehicles from 2008-2010. All of the crossover utilities may have an issue with the wiring harness for their seat-mounted side airbags. Apparently, the vehicles are equipped with a Service Air Bag warning light that, if ignored, "will eventually result in the non-deployment of the side impact restraints." Those restraints include the side airbags, a front-center airbag if the vehicle is so equipped and seatbelt pretensioners. Dealers of affected vehicles will be instructed to remove driver and passenger side airbag wiring harness connectors, and then "splice and solder the wires together." The second recall affects 303,000 Chevrolet Express (pictured right) and GMC Savana vans from model years 2009-2014, and with gross vehicle weights under 10,000 pounds. Said vehicles do not comply with a head impact requirement for unrestrained occupants, and will need a reworking of the instrument panel material to be sent back on the road. It doesn't sound as though there's a quick fix for this one, as the GM press release states: "Unsold vehicles have been placed on a stop delivery until development of the solution has been completed and parts are available." Finally, the third recall affects 63,900 Cadillac XTS luxury sedans from model years 2013 and 2014. A brake booster pump may be susceptible to corrosion by way of the relay, potentially causing and electrical short, overheating, melting of plastic components and even engine fires. GM says it is aware of two engine fires in unsold XTS models and two cases of melted parts. Repairs for the issues affecting the XTS have not not mentioned by GM in the release. The Detroit News is also reporting that along with news of the triple-recall, GM is taking a $300-million credit to help pay for the repair costs, and to deal with the ongoing costs associated with the ignition switch recall. In an attempt to explain just what GM has been doing in the face of these very serious issues, newly minted CEO Mary Barra has addressed the issues in a new video.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
