If you have ever had the urge to buy a true classic, collectible car that you need not spend a fortune to buy it or keep it maintained then this is the car for you.  Absolutely the best driving muscle car I have ever driven.  I have owned approximately 1,000 cars that I would consider muscle cars.  This car is as original as it gets.  Numbers matching engine, transmission and rear end with a 3.42 posi.  Muncie M-21 with original shifter that was rebuilt in California prior to my ownership.  Engine has had a cam change and an aluminum intake and MSD ignition added.  The engine has a nice lope through the flowmasters.  I have the original intake, distributor and valve covers.  This just gives it a little more pep but retains its originality.  Alternator is original and A/C is still on R-12 and works great.  Still has the original shifter and also the original standard-shift radiator.  Car never goes over 210 in the heat with the A/C on.  Speedometer shows 58,676 miles but I cannot verify this.  All indicators are that this is correct.  All original interior is in excellent condition.  Dash pad has a small crack near the speaker.  I have a cap on the dash at this time.  I have the build sheet for this vehicle and it matches up rather nicely.  It shows windshield antenna which is rare.  It has the original HR-70-15 spare in the trunk.  Has an aftermarket AM FM in the glove box and the original 8 track still on the dash.  Key buzzer still functions as does the shift lock from the transmission to the steering column.  It must be in reverse to get the key out of it.  Drives absolutely straight with no shakes or pull.  A pleasure to own and drive.  All of the gauges work perfectly.  Currently has 17” American Racing Hopster wheels on it - which are not my taste but look great and run smoothly.  The tires have approximately 1,600 miles on them.  2 1/2 “ true dual exhaust with flowmasters and it sounds great.  Clutch does not chatter nor slip, it engages perfectly and pulls great.  I had it painted 6 years ago and it has held up great.  Paint looks deep and glossy.  I also had a new vinyl top put on at the same time with the original material of course.  Rea end is quiet and grabs perfectly.  Absolutely no issues – get in it and drive.  The original exhaust manifolds and smog are still in place so there are no headers to leak.  Has matching number carburetor on the aluminum intake.  Engine starts great and idles at 800 RPM and lopes great.  It has great muscle car sound.  I think I covered it all, but look at the pictures and if you have a question that I did not cover, give me a call.  806-236-5911C or 806-373-9736W.  The only reason for selling is the purchase of a house.  Please do not be a bogus bidder – man-up!  If you meet the reserve, then I expect you to complete the auction.  I do not need bids to help sell my car.  The car itself will sell on its own merit.  I will help on this end to deliver it to the shipper of your choice.  Title is clear and in my name.  Payment of cash or cashier’s check prior to pick up.  Vehicle will be released after all funds are cleared and in my hand.  No warranty – I think it expired a few years ago.  Check my feedback – good luck and God bless.  Free delivery to lower 48 states if you use Buy-It-Now.

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.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
