My story on this car is ridiculously long, but I'll try to shorten it a bit. I bought the car out of New Jersey, it was last titled in 1973, was wrecked then, and left to sit in the bush and be picked over for parts. The body was in surprisingly good shape, other than the roof and upper cowl. I installed a new roof, upper cowl, upper dash, tail pan, and bought new sheet metal for the front. I repaired minor pin holes in the floor and trunk, but most is original sheet metal. The quarter panels were solid, but had been dented and then repaired with bondo. I soda blasted the entire car, and roughly dollied out the quarters, they still need some work to finish straightening, but I figured it would be better than Taiwan quarters. I bought good used RS inner fenders which are already finished in the proper matte black, and a California subframe which I've just freshly powder coated. I have new front fenders and cowl hood. I have purchased a ridiculous amount of parts for the car, because I planned on building show quality. I have a complete RS headlamp system, NOS RS grille and mldg, NOS rear spoiler, new tilt steering column, new centre console, complete new deluxe interior including black houndstooth seat material which I've already installed, restored instrument panel, complete new wiring harnesses, door handles, mirrors, emblems, lamps, steering wheel, good used tinted side glass, all told over $17000 in parts at today's prices. Most parts were purchased at Rick's Camaro (Eckler's), and most new. I have a set of 14" rally wheels as well as a set of American Racing Stics 5 15x8 wheels (look like Torq Thrusts). I had a 454 and a Muncie, but they have already been sold as they did not match the car. You will still need to purchase a motor, transmission, exhaust, windshield, back glass, seat belts, and some other small parts, but 90% of what you need I have. I have a 12 bolt posi rear with multi leaf springs, 4 spd trans crossmember, driveshaft, and used front disc brake setup, as well as the old original drum brakes should you decide that's what you want. I have the proper stamping numbered distributor, alternator, and a couple of pulleys. I also have a good used front bumper, and a new aftermarket (US made, not China) rear bumper. Lots of restoration manuals, and templates for placing antenna, stripes, rear spoiler, back up lamps, emblems, etc.

The car was originally a Butternut Yellow (less than 1% of 69's were painted Butternut before switching to Daytona Yellow, which makes it much more rare), with black vinyl top, RS and SS packages, 4 spd, 12 bolt, and a black standard interior. The only change I was going to make from original was the black deluxe houndstooth. I bought the car from the original owner so I know it is what I've said, but as it's a US car unfortunately I can't offer any more proof. I do have a copy of the original New York title, last registered in 1973.

I realize the price will scare some away, but that's ok, I don't have to sell it. Before all the self proclaimed "experts" offer their 2 cents, please realize.....

A new aftermarket body tub will cost you $16000

You would then need to find an ownership / title, or register the car as a current model year, and at that point it is worth nothing to 69 Camaro buyers.

You would need front sheet metal: approx $1000

Rear axle: $1200

Subframe $1000

Interior $3000

About $10000 in small parts, which I've already purchased.

At that point you would have spent about $32000 to be at the point I'm at now, (not to mention whatever your donor title car cost you), and you'd still have an aftermarket tub worth half what the real thing is!

I have offered a buy it now option, but feel free to make me a reasonable offer as well.

I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is also for sale locally.

Buyer is responsible for shipping, but I can deliver in Southern Ontario or to any of the Ontario / US border (Canadian side) for an additional fee.

The photos show some of the wrinkles still remaining in the rear quarters, everything on the shelf is for the car, the pic of small parts is just one tote, there are four more just like it!

Over $15000 in parts, never mind the car itself.

I can email a detailed list of all the parts, but I am unable to attach it to the listing, please ask if you'd like to see it.

At my best guess, you're probably looking at another $15000 to finish this car to show quality, but you should have $65000 piece when you're done.

To put it simply, those that know what it takes to build one of these cars will realize what's here, those that don't or can't afford it, please just move on, this one is not for you!

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck

Thu, Oct 30 2014

Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
