I am testing the waters on a project I am currently working on to see if I want to sell or finish it.  It is on the back burner while I finish some other projects as I do this for a living and have gotten really busy at work.  The project is a 1970 Camaro Rally Sport.  This car has had a complete frame off restoration started and i would say it is halfway done.  I have purchased the majority of the parts but not everything.  I started with a pretty nice Texas body stripped it to nothing and started from scratch.  No expense or time was spared to make it slick as glass and arrow straight. It is painted Boyd Red base coat clear with a ton of time wet sanding and buffing.  I found an NOS complete front RS clip that is all perfect GM original parts so they fit. Both quarters were replaced one with gm the other aftermarket.  Both doors are perfect gm originals.  The bodywork and paint i would give a solid 9.5 out of 10.  it looks awesome and fits together better than from Chevrolet.  I have not wet sanded the hood, trunk lid, or nose yet because i still did not know how I wanted to do the stripes.  Thinking about painting it like a new 1LE but not sure yet.  It has the low rear spoiler. the door gaps trunk gaps and hood gaps are truly amazing.  While I had it apart I installed Detroit Speed and Engineering Mini-Tubs in the rear and also there sub-frame connectors so it will be tight and you can run 12 inch tires in the rear.  The front sub-frame is all redone original with all new components and installed a set of drop springs.  It has a 12 Bolt Camaro rear and the springs where moved in for tire clearance.   I also have a new eaton posi with 3.73 gears and all the stuff to put it in new in a box. I have a set of perfect 2004 corvette Z06 seats that I was gonna run that will go with it or I have the original seats either way.  I have a nice original dashboard for it also. The engine is a 2004 LS6 Z06 Corvette engine that I just had rebuilt with no expense spared with 0 miles on it. It has a Texas speed torquer 2 cam with 595-598 lift.  I also installed a set of ported and flowed 243 heads and a 92 mm fast intake but I have not purchased a throttle body yet.  It has new original corvette accessories on the engine.  I do have a set of factory camaro manifolds but have not bought any headers or exhaust yet.  It should be good for 475 HP or so.  It has a new spec clutch and a Chevrolet T56 6 speed tranny behind it.  I have the new engine harness and computer for the engine.  I also have new brake lines in a box.  I have the brand new front and back glass and original side glass but I dont have the rear window chrome but I have the front chrome.  I have not bought a tank for it yet but I do have a clean original tank.  I do not have a back bumper but was gonna buy a new one.  I have a nice set of tail lights.  The bottom and inside the car was finished with lizard skin sound deadening spray and then the bottom was painted chassis black.  The firewall was shaved and slicked off.  I was gonna put vintage air in it but have not purchased it yet nor have I bought any gauges but have the originals.  I have some rubber seals but not all.  I have the slave cyl. bracket but no slave.  The pedals are in and I have a factory tilt column for it.  I have not bought a master cylinder or booster yet.  The wheels that are on it are original z28 wheels with brand new tires on them just using them as rollers right now.  Was planning on running a custom wheel.  The RS front stuff that I have is nos original gm and in perfect shape.  The only thing I do not have is the grille surround because my chromer ruined or lost it.  My stupidity for giving it to him.  I am sure I am forgetting some things but you get the general idea of what I have.  I am not having a fire sell and I don't have to sell it I just though rather than letting it sit here until I get time I would put it out there for your consideration.  I will sell it without engine and trans if you would like.  I will use it in something sometime.  I know what all this neat stuff and labor cost to do this so don't call and offer me some stupid amount cause I will just hang up.  I do this everyday and build 100k plus cars for people and am very good at what I do. That being said if you have any questions or want to see more pics call or email and I will try to get you what you need.  My # is 281-615-0551.  The car is located at my house so it will be available to look at also if you live in town.  I would consider finishing this car the way someone wants it so call me and we can work out numbers and details.

Meet the Greenest and Meanest vehicles of 2016

Wed, Jan 27 2016

If you've been keeping track, you won't be surprised with the number one entry in this year's list of greenest cars from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE). In fact, the top three spots on the 2016 list are all the same as they were in 2015. After that, things get interesting. For one thing, this is the first Greenest list that doesn't have any purely internal combustion engine powertrain on it. Hybrids, yes, but if you want to be one of the top 12 greenest cars this year, you'd better have some sort of electric angle. ACEEE says that the conventional, gas-powered Smart Fortwo and Chevrolet Spark just missed the cut. In a statement, ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan said, "The 2016 scores are in, and plug-in electric vehicles are outpacing all other vehicle offerings in terms of environmental friendliness." Like last year, one of the noticeable vehicles missing from the green list is the Tesla Model S. One reason? ACEEE takes curb weight into account (lighter is better), and the Model S is a heavy beast. The ACEEE doesn't just look at the clean side of the ledger. It also puts out a "meanest" list. These are the vehicles that pollute the most, not only from their tailpipes, but also any pollution created during the entire manufacturing process, from mining the raw materials to the energy used to produce the vehicle at the factory. The entire list, from greenest to meanest, is done using a "cradle to grave" analysis. You can see how the ACEEE determines its rankings here, explore the entire greenest cars site here, or click through our galleries to see which vehicles are extra green (above) or extra mean (below) this year. 12: Mercedes-Benz GL550 4MATIC View 12 Photos More Electric Cars than Ever on Greenest Vehicles List Electric Vehicles Nab 9 out of Top 12 Spots in ACEEE's Environmental Vehicle Rankings Washington, DC: Despite a tumultuous year for the automotive industry, manufacturers have continued to offer exciting technology options for a growing vehicle market. Today at greenercars.org, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) released its 19th annual comprehensive environmental ratings for vehicles. The following vehicles comprise the Greenest List for 2016: Greenest Score 1. Mercedes-Benz Smart ForTwo Electric Drive Convertible / Coupe 63 2. Chevrolet Spark EV 63 3. Fiat 500E 62 4. Toyota Prius Eco 61 5. Volkswagen E-Golf 61 6. Nissan Leaf S / Leaf SV 61 7. Kia Soul Electric 59 8.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Recharge Wrap-up: NEDC's NOx problems, autonomous Chevy Volts

Mon, Dec 7 2015

The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) found a significant difference in NOx emissions in Euro 6 diesel cars in NEDC and WLTC testing. While 88 percent of the cars tested met emissions standards for NEDC, NOx emissions averaged five times higher under WLTC, with only 27 percent of vehicles under the limit. WLTC is considered to be a more realistic driving cycle, using hot starts and factoring a higher top speed as well as harder and more frequent accelerations than the NEDC. Read more at Green Car Congress.GM Canada will build a fleet of autonomous 2017 Chevrolet Volts. The self-driving Volts will be deployed for testing at GM's Warren, Michigan Technical Center. Employees will be able to use a carsharing app to reserve a car, which will then drive itself to the set destination. The project will allow GM to collect important data and experience to help the company more quickly develop autonomous driving technology. Read in a press release more from GM Canada, or at Green Car Congress.Carwatt is showing an electric Renault Trafic powered by second-life batteries at the COP21 environmental summit in Paris. The lithium-ion batteries used to power the EV were recycled from other Renault EVs. With the electric Trafic, Carwatt – a company that converts vehicles to use electric power – aims to demonstrate the "circular economy" of batteries, which can provide more value through a longer lifecycle. Read more in the press release below. Carwatt presents a unique automotive application for second-life batteries from electric vehicles. On the sidelines of the COP21 summit, in the Solutions Gallery running from 2 to 9 December 2015 in Le Bourget near Paris, Carwatt and its partners —Renault, Paris City Council, BPI France, the Ales Ecole des Mines Engineering School, and the Bobigny Business Campus — are showing a very special electric Renault Trafic. This prototype vehicle, the only one of kind in the world, is powered by second-life lithium-ion batteries recycled from Renault electric cars. Circular economy at work with electric vehicles When, over time, the batteries of a Renault electric vehicle fall the performance threshold specified for their initial automotive power duty (around 75% of initial capacity), they can still provide valuable service in "second-life" applications before end-of-life disposal at a recycling centre. Experiments are already under way on power storage applications, for example.
