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 rolls out Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition at SEMA

Mon, Nov 2 2015

It's not just concept vehicles that Chevy is showcasing at SEMA this year. The Bowtie brand is also taking the occasion of the tuner expo to reveal the new Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition. The special edition of the flagship performance model pays tribute to the racing model with a series of special touches and upgrades. The C7.R edition is based on the Z06 in 3LZ trim, and comes equipped with the Z07 Performance Package, including Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. But that's not the end of the story. It also includes special graphics, yellow brake calipers, yellow-striped black wheels, a carbon ground effects package, carbon hood section, metallic gray grilles and vents, and a black leather interior with sueded microfiber trim, Competition Sports seats, and yellow stitching. Buyers will be able to order theirs in black or yellow and in either coupe or convertible body-styles. Only 650 examples will be made, of which 500 will remain in the United States, and each of them is individually numbered starting with the VIN 700001. Of course, being based on the Z06 we already know, it packs a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine good for 650 horsepower and an equal measure of torque. With the Z06 pack, that translates to a 0-60 time of under 3 seconds for the automatic version and 3.2 for the manual.

The Corvette Z06's capability is derived in no small part from technology and experience leveraged from the championship Corvette Racing program. That connection is celebrated with the 2016 C7.R Edition. It's offered in Corvette Racing's signature yellow livery Â– or black Â– with coordinated exterior and interior accents. Only 650 will be built (500 for the U.S. market), all with the Z07 Performance Package with carbon ceramic brakes, and a specially serialized vehicle identification number.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
