Update 1/11/14 10:00 pm. I've had people asking about rust, so I went down and pulled the floor mats out of it and checked it out. The subframe looks good. I didn't find any rust problems there. The floor is still pretty solid, but it does have some rust through. Both rear floors - at the fee of the back seat occupants, have an inch or so diameter hole. On the driver's side someone has drilled a couple holes and strung a wire through it to hold up the exhaust system -- pretty fancy! The driver's side front had flakey surface rust, but I didn't find any rust out. The pass. side front is by far the worst. The bottom edge where the firewall and floor meet has come lose due to rust. There is also several rust out holes all across it. It could possibly use a pan, but I believe it's repairable without one. I wouldn't use a pan on either of the back floors. If it'll let me add a picture or two of the rust I'll do so. The upper door hinge on the right front door is broken.  Also, where the window frame attaches on the top, back of the door it has come lose. There is a significant dent on the pass. side rear door as well, and a dent on the right rear quarter. The glass is all there except the pass. front door glass and the tailgate glass. It has an inline 6 engine in it and a bell housing, but the transmission is gone.  Keep asking questions...


This is one of several cars I hauled in a couple years ago so I don't know very much about it. Basically, what you see is what you get.  I can take additional pictures and check out specific items for you if you're interested.  It sat in an unprotected, abandoned storage area behind a dealership for at least 30 years. It's actually a pretty straight old car with, in my opinion, a huge amount of potential.  I just don't have the time, ability, and interest to do anything with it. While loading it to bring it in, its bad passenger-side front door got tweaked and the door glass shattered. The windshield has a couple chips in it, but it could be used as is.

Please do your homework before bidding on this non-running vehicle.  I live just outside Blanding, UT, 84511 and it is pricey and difficult to get a shipper in here.  More than likely, shipping it any distance will cost you more than what you will probably be able to get the car for.  Assuming we don't get a lot of snow or rain, we should be able to get the car out without too much difficulty, especially with a good winch or roll-back. If weather does intervene, there is no problem with leaving it where it sits for some time.

This is a no-reserve auction, so, obviously, my starting price of $700 means that if I get one bid for that amount, then the car will sell.  I have no idea if I'm in the ballpark, so I'll let you, the buyers, decide what it's worth. If it's not worth that much to someone, then I'll have to reassess it and go from there.

I want a $200 deposit through Paypal within 48 hours of the close of the auction and then we can determine how the rest is to be paid off, depending on your pick up plans and so forth.

Once again, I only know what I've told you and what I can physically see about the car. I can take more pictures as needed or go down and check out specific parts/issues. Also, if you're in the vicinity and have interest, by all means, come and check it out yourself. Either email me through Ebay or call 435-459-0591 to discuss it or get more information.

I have a clear Utah title to it.

GM invests $175 million in Chevy Camaro factory

Thu, May 28 2015

General Motors just keeps rolling out portions of its $5.4-billion plan for factory upgrades over the next three years. In the latest announcement, the automotive giant is putting $175 million into the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant for improvements to build the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro. The investment brings new equipment to the plant to build the pony car. An upgrade is needed to support Camaro-specific colors like Summit White, Bright Yellow, and Red Hot, and the factory is also getting two robotic framers. A second shift of 500 workers is resuming in Lansing later this summer to produce the model, as well. So far, GM has announced allocations for $2.8 billion of the $5.4 billion in upgrades. The investments include $1.2 billion to improve pickup production, $439 million for a paint shop for the Corvette, and more new equipment at other plants too. Lansing Grand River Plant Tools Up for 2016 Camaro $175 million investment enables production of lighter, more powerful model 2015-05-28 LANSING, Mich. – A $175 million investment for new tooling and equipment for the sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro, and the return of hundreds of workers to build America's best-selling performance car for the last five years, was announced today. The facility improvements include three new paint systems for Camaro-specific colors: Summit White, Bright Yellow, and Red Hot. The investment also includes installation of two robotic framers, which allow better dimensional control to provide a more precise drive experience. The Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant will resume a second shift of 500 jobs in late summer. The all-new Chevrolet Camaro was introduced on Detroit's Belle Isle on May 16. The current generation Camaro has been America's favorite performance car for five consecutive years, attracting both long-term Camaro fans and new buyers to Chevrolet. To improve on that success, the sixth-generation Camaro elevates every aspect of Camaro with a suite of new technologies, even higher levels of performance and fuel economy, and a leaner, more athletic design. "I may be the luckiest mayor in America today," said Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero. "Gearing up for full-scale production of the legendary Chevy Camaro is a new high point in the more than two decades of extraordinary partnership between the City of Lansing, General Motors and the UAW.

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds

Sun, Dec 28 2014

We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
