What we have here is a 1968 Z28 Camaro. This car is a documented Protection Plate car from the dealership. The car has gone through a complete rotisserie restoration. Every single wire to lightbulb, to bushing, to nut and bolt....this car has been completely dismantled, restored and meticulously put back together with complete detail and care. The car has a numbers matching drive train except the engine which was found close to the correct date code. Original MO Zapper block which was standard and rebuilt with all Z28 correct components like ..standard 1178 crankshaft...standard 30/30 camshaft, lifters, rockers, balancer, windage tray excetra. Factory Original.... everything in this car to the throttle spring is the way it came off the assembly line. The car is literally not broken into as it was driven only couple hundred miles. Every mechanical part of the car was fined tuned from the point you turn the key. From the Holley DZ original carburetor, to the timing of the engine, to the temperature .... all mechanical components compliment each other when driving. This machine was in the care of a mechanic from the 60's era before it came home. If I would compare driving this car to a musical instrument I would say a flute....Sounds so smooth. The car has no flaws. There is not a scratch, chip, or mark on the paint. The body lines and gaps are like factory. The factory original paint of Seafrost Green is a rare color and has the houndstooth seats which have also been refoamed and upholstered. This car is equiped with a restored AM/FM radio, center console, tic tac toc, power steering, power disc brakes which are all factory original. Even the brake booster and master cylinder were restored to retain the numbers on the booster which state a true Z28. This car was restored with the dynamat coat underneath the carpet to provide the sound barrier of driving. And I say, you can barely hear the car when you drive it. It is equipped with the original reproduction exhaust as well. The wheels on the car are original Z28 wheels. They are also restored with GM stamps and DF stamps on them. There is one spare rim matching the other five wheels that come with the car. The transmission is restored and is an M22 Rock Crusher transmission. The GM Z28 emblems are real and not knock off ones.. These are super rare and they are brand new and not repops...The rear end is the original posi traction BU Code 3:73 rear end with all original GM gears.. All seals have been replaced. There is no leaks anywhere. This car still retains its original glove box tire decal which also describes its status as a True Z28. This car also came with the delux steering wheel which also has been restored. Front power disc brakes with all lines....basically the whole brake system, fuel system is brand new. All suspension is brand new...Everything ..like I said....nut and bolt... ALL NEW....I installed a secondary mechanical temp gauge which will read temp contantly at 180F. This car is definately a beautiful car. They never called these cars the mighty mouse of the 60's for no reason. The car is currently in a heated container stored right now. You will not find a nicer turn key, everything works, completely restored 1968 Camaro anywhere ...Bonus ...ITS A REAL DOCUMENTED Z28 ....For my US friends. The car came from Wisconsin and I am currently the third owner. I can do all the paperwork at the border without you being there. It will leave from Blaine, Washington State. Car must obviously be shipped in an enclosed truck where I can meet the driver for pickup at the border... I will pay the 500 border fee and have all the paperwork ready for you when the car arrives to its new home. It will be made easy so you may take it to your DMV, Isure, and title it to your state. Please read and look at the pictures... All photo and receipt documentation is included with the car. Have this beauty just in time for the summer. Super low reserve for the value of this car. Tens of thousands spent on restoration for problem free turn key car. This car is a real gem ... Goodluck.

Had a question about the protection booklet. Those are photo copies in the picture. The real book is stored in our bank's safety deposit box. And yes it will go along with the car. And yes, the reserve is below 50 !

Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept
Sat, Nov 22 2014"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals
Sun, Mar 3 2024EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.
