Up for auction is a 67 Camaro RS convertible.
This is a very restorable Camaro, It needs the typical quarters, doors, outer rockers, and fenders. The floors have the typical patches in both rear foot wells, and one in the passenger side front foot area. However, the rest of the floor is in really solid shape (see pictures). Spring perches, rear frame rails, inner rocker area are in really good condition. The floor bracing is really nice. The trunk floor and shock towers are in very good rust free condition. The convertible top is in very good condition, no tears. The rear window does need to be replaced. The convertible top frame is in excellent condition, all latches work great and function very well. Window regulators work freely. Door glass is in fair condition. It has American Racing 15x7 outlaw wheels that are in good shape.
This is a V8 327 power glide Rally Sport car. I purchased this from the second owner who has had this since the very early 70's. do to front end damage back in the day, the previous owner replace the front end with a base model front clip instead of replacing the correct RS clip. The 327 (ME code) was taken out to rebuild and was replaced with a 6 cylinder......Your guess is as good as mine. It does have the original power glide trans and factory 10 bolt rear end. I DO NOT HAVE THE original engine....wish I did. The fun part is you can make this car anything you want, original, pro tour etc. without feeling guilty for cutting up a rare numbers car.
The Car does run and drive, not real well, but I have driven it up the road a few times with no issues. The power brakes and power steering etc. all work very well. You can easily drive it on a trailer, however I would not plan on driving it home unless you live next door. My plan was to restore this for myself, however I decided to restore a 69 instead...trust me it was a real hard decision.
Overall, I would rate this in relatively "fair" shape. Its been apart, but is still in one piece and very restorable. I have the clear Illinois title.
The pictures really explain this car best!
With that said, If you are in the market for a first generation Camaro convertible that with a little work you can drive now, or for a really good restoration project, this would make the perfect candidate.
Thanks for looking. If you have any questions at all please feel free to ask.
Please serious bidders only. I require a 500.00 non refundable deposit at the end of auction.
I reserve the right to end auction early.
If you have less than 10 bid history please contact me first... I will cancel bids!
Happy Bidding!!!!

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan
Mon, 11 Feb 2013Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
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 looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
