Location:

Watseka, Illinois, United States

Watseka, Illinois, United States

For sale: 1991 Chevy Camaro RS Convertible with factory ordered 3.1 liter V6      (231 cubic inch) motor, automatic overdrive transmission, factory convertible, air conditioning, power brakes and steering, cruise, and AM/FM cassette player. It is a two-owner car with 110,000 original miles on it – it is a great driver and is a model that you don’t see (700 made in 1991). Car comes with manual, new car cassette, original order sticker, and clear title. It is selling for a fair price with no reserve!*****   

BODY: Car has a white exterior, gray cloth interior and carpet, and a black convertible top. Paint is original and very nice driver quality except the front end was repainted due to chips (2 years ago), the  hood was replaced with a fancier 1992 hood, and the ground effects on the bottom of the doors were repainted. The car presents well except for: the underside edge of the trunk lid is rusty and needs to be either replaced or cut out and patched (just on the underside – closes/locks fine), some slight surface rust around the wheel well opening, just on the lip, on the driver's side front and rear wheel openings, and there is a spot of rust under the spoiler on the driver's fender front and a slight blister under the mirror mount on the driver's door. Underside is clean and structurally sound. There are a couple of touched up scratches on the trunk, a couple of dings on the driver’s door, and some light spider age cracking on the rear bumper.

Black convertible top is also original, it is in good shape, however the back plastic window is out of it and would either need to be re-sewn in (details on the internet on the kit/piece to buy and how to do it), or the top replaced or left as it is. Edge welting on the top shows some age cracking, but works fine and presents fine. This car has a manual top, it has an electrical switch to open the top well (switch is not working), but it does have a manual pull to open the well instead, and it works fine to raise and lower the top to/from storage. The front windshield is also new as it got a rock chip a year ago while driving and the interior is very nice except for some wear as shown on the driver’s seat. 

MECHANICAL: Car runs and shifts great – within the last year, the car has had a complete tune up and fluid change, new injectors, new EGR valve, a new fuel tank, fuel pump and sleeve, lines and sender (GM pieces), and new exhaust (Flowmaster). I have also had the brakes gone through – redone rotors up front with new pads, turned drums in rear with new shoes and new brake lines. Tires were purchased new and now have 10,000 miles on them (Goodyear Eagle P225-60s). Car has also had a new battery installed, a new drive belt, and new style headlights. Car honestly runs strong and correct with no issues – pretty amazing performance and fuel economy from this engine – love it with the top down in summer!*****

TITLE: Car has a clear title in my name and will be signed off to new owner.       

PAYMENT: Paypal can be used to pay the $1000 deposit for the car within 3 days of the sale’s end. Balance is due within two weeks after that – either by cash at pickup or by bank wire transfer (call for bank, account, and bank contact details). If fully paid for up front, car can stay stored here for up to 30 days at no charge, after 30 days, I will refund all money, except the deposit, and relist the car. 

QUESTIONS: If questions contact Dr. Brian using the email link above and to the right in this ad that mentions “ask seller a question”.  Car is located 1.5 hours south of Chicago, Illinois (zip 60970) and about 15-20 miles west of the Illinois/Indiana state line. We are in a rural area, so easy to find and easy access. Please feel free to come and view the car/drive it or send someone to do so. Contact me before coming so I can be sure to be here! Thanks for looking!!!*****

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway 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?
