Please allow ample time for our high resolution photos and video to load. Thank you. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Convertible Z-11 Pace Car VIDEO BELOW / PRESS PLAY VIDEO ABOVE / PRESS PLAY Street Machines Texas is proud to present this genuine Z-11 '69 Camaro Pace Car. There were 3,675 of the pace car Z-11 optioned tribute cars built by GM in 1969. 1969 would be the 2nd pace car for the Camaro and arguably the most attractive. The 1969 Camaro boasted new aggressive styling throughout the exterior and interior. With its exclusive Dover White Paint with Hugger Orange Stripes & bulging body panels, these cars are certainly head-turners. This example is powered by its original 350/300HP smallblock V8 engine and showcases all of its factory options. This is a garaged example that is original in most respects & all equipment with exception of a re-spray in the past. Little history is known on this Texas car, but we will do our best to showcase it. Enjoy the presentation and feel free to contact myself, Sam, direct at 972-748-6389 with any questions. FEATURES INCLUDE: Factory 300 Horsepower 350 cubic inch V8 engine - Engine Stamping T0419HB & Block Casting 3932388 TH350 Automatic Transmission Factory Manual Convertible Top & Orange Boot Factory Air Conditioning Power Steering Power Front Disc Brakes 15-Inch Rally Wheels / B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A Tires Factory Z-11 Option Car Super Sport & Rally Sport (RS/SS) Package Tachometer / Clock Dover White Exterior & Hugger Orange Stripes Original Orange Houndstooth Interior - Center Console - Headrest Seats Spare Tire & Jacking Equipment Factory AM/FM Delco Radio 12-Bolt Posi-Traction Rear End First Year Cowl Induction Vintage 1969 Texas plates x 2 Rubber Mats This Norwood-built example is a quality driver ready to own and enjoy. The exterior displays an older refinish in the correct Dover White & Z-11 specific orange stripes. Hand pinstriping was laid down along with body lines to accentuate the '69s beautiful lines. The paint is in good condition with a few minor flaws if you look closely. The body itself is very straight. The doors, trunk, and hood line up correctly. There are some paint chip touch-ups along the door edge and the trunk lid edge you can see if you look closely. This is a very attractive and dry climate Camaro. Open the doors to 1969. The interior features the striking original Orange Houndstooth configuration & standard equipment along with an optional AM/FM Delco radio, factory tachometer, and center console. You could even get these cars with column-shifted transmissions in some models. Another unusual thing about this Camaro is the factory air conditioning and manual top. Most of the cars were equipped with power-operated tops from my research. Further inspection of the interior will confirm that this is a garage-kept example. The current owner has had the car for 13-years and it hasn't changed a bit since he took ownership. The car was purchased off a showroom in central Texas after he sold his '67 RS/SS 396 White & Blue Pace Car convertible. The dash displays the factory speedometer and tachometer along with the optional clock. The 80,148 miles are certainly original to the car, although I don't have mileage logs to verify this. Under the hood is the original and previously rebuilt 350 cubic inch V8 rated at 300 horsepower. This 4-bolt block retains the correct casting of 3932388 and the engine pad stamping is T0419HB, also matching this car's production dates. The engine runs very smooth and strong. It is paired with the TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Accessories include power front disc brakes, power steering and rare factory air conditioning. An Optima battery has been added. 1969 would be the first year for the optional cowl induction hood on Camaro. This example is complete with its correct cowl breather & seal. Further inspection will confirm clean and detailed inner fender wells and core support sheet metal throughout. The Norwood built Z-11 Camaros had Z11 stamped on the firewall tag while the LA built cars did not. This is a Norwood example. If you look closely, you can see some ripple to the firewall near the cowl tag where the car was possibly repaired at some point in its life. I suspect a fender-bender of some kind in the 1970s, although every lines up as it should both externally and underneath. The car is a pleasure to drive. The undercarriage displays excellent original sheet metal throughout. The floorboards are indicative of a dry-climate car. The subframe appears to retain its original bushings while the front end was rebuilt previously. The rear end is the original 12-bolt posi-traction unit. This undercarriage hasn't been detailed out, so you can see how solid it is. This is a very attractive Camaro. With spoilers and hide-away headlights, this is certainly a mean-machine. The glass is in good condition throughout as is the rubber weatherstrip. The convertible top has been replaced in the past, judging by its great condition. It is manually operated and hidden with a hugger orange boot when retracted. The muscular stance is aided by the original rolling stock of 15-inch Rally wheels wrapped in timeless B.F. Goodrich Radial T/As which have plenty of tread front to back. I found a pretty good paint chip area there on the rear tail light panel along with an isolated area of bubbles just in front of the drivers door. These spots have been there for 13-years and haven't changed any in that time. The trunk looks great, with the correct spatter paint and matching spare wheel & jacking equipment. The inner quarter panels look excellent and the trunk lip is solid throughout. The door panels and door undersides are in excellent condition Enjoy the remaining photos and again feel free to contact myself, Sam, at 972-748-6389 with any questions.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
