I bought this car about a year and a half ago and have loved driving in it. The thumbs up from other drivers, and the talks at gas stations are one of my favorite things about driving it. You get attention from men and women of all ages! Who doesn't like to see an American Classic role by? Anyways, I have to sell this car because I am going over to the Middle East for the next 12 months and my darling wife is unable to take care of it. I love this car and hate to see it go, especially after all the money I have recently put into the motor rebuild.

Here is a brief history of the car before I bought it.

It was originally owned in Arizona by a husband and wife duo who used it as a their getaway car while robbing a bank. They did so unsuccessfully and the car was apprehended and put up for auction where an FBI agent bought it and babied it for a few years. It stayed in Arizona the whole time up until it as sold to another FBI Agent. When the second Agent was transferred to a Virginia assignment he had to sell the car (which he chose to do on ebay) which is when I became the owner of the car. I shipped the car to Florida where it has been garaged practically ever since except for a few short trips around the East Coast of Florida, and the occasional Sunday drive. As I stated earlier, I have just finished having the engine rebuild less than a month ago, and it starts up every time. The side pipes are loud enough to get attention and really claim that deep throaty engine noise that the muscle cars love to emit, but not so loud that they are a nuisance to drive with or difficult to speak over. The color is actually a very dark blue, but it looks black unless you're looking very close in direct sunlight. The red interior is a classic, and the owner prior to me had them reupholstered before he sold me this dream car. The interior gauge clusters are all original and show a little fading, but are still clearly legible and look great. The 4 speed pulls strong through all the gears and really gives it that classic feel as you are driving. This is the last year that they offered the metal front bumper, and the chrome on it really shines after a cleaning. As you can see in the pictures the car looks great from a few feet away and up close. The interior drive and passenger side windows tint looks great while driving and really help keep the sun out of the interior. The tint is rather old though and could use replacing, but still works just fine. The interior of the car (except the seats) is all original and there is some scratches here and there. The T-Tops look great and come off easily, just two levers on either side and they come off in a jiffy! There is a rack behind the two seats that you can store them on while driving in case it begins to rain so you can get them on quickly as well. Included is all the receipts and paperwork I have collected during replacing parts and having work done on the vehicle, along with some spare bits and ends of parts that I have either not used or had extra. The gentleman before me

Below is a list of all the new parts and work I have had done while the vehicle was in my care.

Full engine rebuild which includes:

new pistons/rings .30 over

brand new connecting rods and rod bearings

Brand new crankshaft along with main bearings

New oil pump

Double row timing set

Custom camshaft and new cam bearings

All new gasket and freeze plugs for the bottom end.

The top end was rebuilt with all new valves

Valve guides and a valve job

Brand new valve seals

Rebuild Harland sharp rocker arms

New lifters

Brand new harmonic balancer

Brand new brute force clutch kit with clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing

The previous owner had some work done on 2/10/2012:

New AC Filter Dryer

AC Flush Solvent

AC Compressor w/ Clutch (remanufactured)

AC Refrigerant

AC Belt

Retro Fit Kit

AC Expansion Valve

CQ Thermostats

CQ Water Outlets

Hose Clamps

Radiator Hose

Cooling System Flush

Global Antifreeze

CQ RED Filters by Wix

CQ Cardone Remanufactured Wiper Motors

NEW ALTERNATOR

As of right now the AC is not kicking out cold air, but does work when you turn it on. I believe the AC just needs to be recharged. Tires are in great shape with plenty of tread left on them. I am leaving on Tuesday 6/25 so I am leaving my mechanic's information for any questions. His name is Josh Super and his email is joshsuper@live.com he will be able to answer any questions you may have regarding the mechanical work done to the vehicle. He has done all of my mechanical work since I've owned the vehicle.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding!!

One last thing I forgot, if you email my mechanic he has a video of the car running that he can send you as well.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ awards. The Green Truck of the YearÂ™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
