1981 Chevy Camaro Z28 Clone, Convertible! Coach Conversion 350 V8 A/t No Reserve on 2040-cars

Elizabethtown, Kentucky, United States

For Sale and at absolutely no reserve starting at ONE PENNY and selling to the highest bidder in a 5 day auction. An 1981 Chevy Camaro CONVERTIBLE!!!  You may be saying to yourself, "They didn't make a convertible in 1981." You are CORRECT. BUT, a coach conversion company (possibly NCE/National Coach Engineering in Michigan) bought these cars from the factory. 

According to the VIN, this car started out life as a 3.8L V6 Coupe. It was converted to a Z28 clone convertible along with an engine switch to a 350 V8 with a four barrel carburetor and functioning ram air hood. Raised white letter tires with matching painted wheels. Single exhaust into one then back out to duals. I removed the muffler and put in a piece of pipe. it has a nice rumble to it but nothing obnoxious as there is still a catalytic converter on it. It has an automatic transmission, (350 Turbo) and a B&M Quick Silver shifter. It has a gray tweed interior that is in good condition.  Comes equipped with A/C but no guarantees. I'm not going to tell you, "All it needs is a recharge." (We've all heard that one before!)  The car runs very well and I get thumbs up wherever I go. I replaced the yellowed and cracked back plastic window. Now it is nice and clear and flexible! Looks super. The roof (non power) is serviceable/useable and I have shown the areas that have been patched in the pictures. I always get the super sized photos and you can magnify each one for greater detail. I highlighted the nicks and paint issues where possible to show the accurate condition of the car. 

I have had the top down for a few weeks covered with the boot so the pics show the top as a bit wrinkled. I put it back down after pics. The car is and has been in a garage. The hood is a little more red than the fenders so there must have been a repaint in the past. Bumpers and nose piece are a bit faded. The detail really did a lot for the look of the car and it really shines! 

As this is a 5 day auction, if you would like to talk about the car, send me a message through this auction along with your phone number and I'll call. The car should make it on a longer trip, but if you need help in getting it to you, I have a car hauler and will deliver up to 500 miles for $1.00 per loaded mile. Any further and we'll need to talk. Good luck in the auction and feel free to email and talk.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
