1969 SS 396 Chevelle convertible! I bought this car late 2000 and this is what I know, was told it was restored in 1998 and the speedo was put at 0 it now has 8400 miles on it, I have put over 3000 of those on it. It has numbers matching rear end (original to car but posi added) numbers matching Turbo 400 trans (original to car) the engine is a real 1969 396 engine (feb. build date, car is late 1968 build) it has been decked in rebuild, was told it was a CE replacement for the car, but have no paperwork. I do have the POP and everything I have stated checks out. This car is really done right, I was told only NOS GM parts were used in the restoration and some crazy story about a $700 dollar NOS A/C hose. The engine compartment must be done perfect as every time I take it to a show guys take pic for their restoration. Everything works on the car but the A/C which did work when I got it but now it does not blow cold. I do have the front bumper guards and the 14" rallies with trim rings & white letter tiger paws on them (I like the 15" vette rallies better both go with car) I'm 6'4" and have add brackets so the front seat can go further back and recline as seen in the pics, they will be removed and it will be put back to stock. Color combo speaks for itself and is original colors for the car. I have added air bags to give it a bit of a higher stance (not much). The rosewood wheel is cracked at the top seam, car has the gauge pkg. white manual convertible top with glass window and everything else you see in pics. My collection has changed from old muscle to new muscle, this car was the best of the best of my old muscle collection as has been the hardest for me to let go, but a new Shelby is going to replace it after I sell it. You are more than welcome to come over and inspect the car or have an agent for you come I have a lift for your use. There is a little bubble in the paint on the upper passenger side rear quarter panel right next to the trunk lid, I have had body guys tell me they should be able to buff it out, but I didn't want to take the chance. Call with any questions, Brian 847-392-3330

Chevy donates first 2016 COPO Camaro to United Way

Fri, Jan 29 2016

Want to get your hands on the first new COPO Camaro? Scottsdale will be the place to be this weekend. That's where Barrett-Jackson will auction off the drag-racing muscle car with the serial number 2016COPO001. The example on the docket is the very same show car that Chevy revealed at the SEMA show just a couple of months ago. Like every new COPO Camaro, it's based on the new sixth-generation coupe and packs an array of drag-racing upgrades. Those include a three-speed automatic transmission, solid rear axle, and adjustable suspension. While Chevy will offer the new COPO Camaro with a choice of three engines, this particular example packs the 5.7-liter supercharged V8, as well as a unique red and black livery designed by Chevy drag racing driver Courtney Force. 100 percent of the proceeds from the sale are destined to go to United Way, following previous examples that benefited wounded veterans. You can bet it will raise a pretty penny at auction, but if you miss this one, of course there will be more. Just don't wait around too long as the Bowtie brand will only make 69 of them this year. 2016 COPO Camaro No. 1 Sale to Benefit United Way Courtney Force designed show car to be auctioned for United Way 2016-01-26 DETROIT – Chevrolet will auction off the first, sixth generation 2016 COPO Camaro race car to raise money for United Way. The purpose-built COPO Camaro, serial number 2016COPO001, will be sold on Friday, Jan. 29, at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction. All proceeds of the winning bid will benefit United Way. "This is a special opportunity to purchase the first of the sixth generation, 2016 COPO Camaro while also helping such a great cause," said Jim Campbell, U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. The COPO is a powerful, purpose-built Camaro designed to race in NHRA Stock Eliminator class. The COPO Camaro legacy continues with an all-new sixth-generation version. This modern-looking machine infuses legendary COPO performance with the modern, lighter and stronger design of the 2016 Camaro. Chevrolet introduced the sixth generation COPO Camaro No. 001 last November at the SEMA Show and includes a personalized look created by Chevrolet and NHRA Funny Car driver Courtney Force. It features a Red Hot exterior color with Courtney Force-signature graphics and red-accented grille trim. "I was extremely honored to work with Chevrolet and help design the 2016 COPO Camaro," said Courtney Force.

Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites

Sun, Jan 7 2024

Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.
