 For Auction is my 1989 Chevrolet, short wheel base, truck with the following features.  Original Paperwork included.  Only 98k original miles.  Choo Choo Customs Package includes the interior, the rear bumper, and the front air dam with fog lights.  Everything works like it should.  The Wheels were also a Choo Choo addition.

This truck runs and drives just as straight as you would expect.  Actually, for 98k miles it drives really well.  It isn't perfect but not far from it.  You can tell from the pics how nice a truck it is. 

There are two small dents in the choo choo customs special bumper on the back.  You can see in the pic.  Front bumper is straight.  I had the truck repainted 3 years ago from the original maroon to the red you see today.  The bed was removed and the doorjams and everything painted right.  The only thing that remains unpainted to the red is the firewall.  The original black mirrors were replaced with the Silverado trim mirrors as well as the black trim on the side was replaced at that time too with Silverado chrome trim.  The front grill and rear tail lights were also replaced with new.  The interior is in great shape. No dash cracks.  The only places that aren't perfect in the interior are the pics you see where there were some small holes drilled...it was like that when I bought the truck.  The glovebox door shuts fine, but there is the left side hinge that is broke.  Doesn't rattle or anything.  The plastic snap part of the original sliding glass doesn't stay fully depressed.  I also replaced the original radio and cassette with a similar model that worked.  I have the original still.   

The bed is rhino lined.  The only leaks that I have seen have been after the truck has been sitting for a while.  If sitting long periods, the transmission will leak some fluid out the small hole in the rear of the yoke.  After long periods there will be a quarter size oil spot under the engine.  If driven daily, I don't see any of these. 

This throwback from an era when trucks became the 'muscle cars' of the late 80's and early 90's is hard to find. Harder to find this nice and not chopped up or pieced together from several trucks.

Don't ask reserve price.  Auction will run its full time.  Truck is not for sale locally.  Truck will not be for sale locally. I also have a set of the 454ss wheels with centercaps  that I will include in this sale if reserve is met.  Feedback is very important to me.  If you come to pick up the truck and it isn't what you want or isn't what I have said, you don't have to buy it.  Simple as that.   Email me with any questions or if you need a specific picture.

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
