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.

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant

Mon, Jun 23 2014

The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index

Mon, Oct 10 2016

While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.
