Beautiful 1968 Camaro Convertible with a book load of new parts and a ton of work done by the previous owner.  I will kind of list all the stuff done to the car in sections, I'm sure I will forget some stuff because there is a lot.

Body:  Beautiful 68 Matador Red paint with black reverse hockey stick stripe(68 only stripe).  Paint looks fantastic and straight, stripe is buried in the clear and can't be felt by rubbing your hand over it.  Have searched trunk and fenders and there are no patch panels on the car.  Any rust removed was done with full panels.  Floor is absolutely perfect with no rust, scale or anything whatsoever.  Floor is finished off in a factory correct semi gloss black and looks great.  Convertible top may be the original top for the car but looks great, back window is a little yellow and cloudy but you can see through it fine, no rips or tears in this top. 

Suspension:  Car is loaded with Hotchkis suspension parts.  Upper and lower control arms(del alum bushings), rear leaf springs, rear sway bar that has a brace that mounts between the frame rails to make it more rigid, subframe connectors, floor support(convertibles only), front sway bar all parts are hotchkis.  Also has qa1 coil over shocks in the front and Bilstein shocks in the rear.  Car handles like a slot car!!

Wheels:  Rocket Racing rocket boosters, 18's in the rear, 17's in the front.  Wilwood 4 wheel disc brakes and all new brake lines and booster.

Engine:  GM crate zz4 engine with 400 hp hooked to a tremec 5 speed with new drive shaft hooked to a 10 bolt posi with a new eaton 3:73 posi unit.  Shorty headers connected to flowmaster transverse muffler with aluminized exhaust.  Stainless steel gas tank.  No LEAKS on this car.  Griffin radiator that never gets above 195 even in the Texas heat with the a/c on, cooled by a nice electric fan.

Interior:  Late model Camaro front seats with original back seat.  Deluxe door panels front and rear.  Original seat belts in rear seat and late model Camaro seat belts in front.  Vintage air A/C that blows ice cold.  Factory looking am/fm radio that is actually one of those new ones that has ipod connections and is actually digital, can't tell it's not the original one, love this option.  Dynomat throughout the whole interior.  Windshield wiper doesn't work, sent motor back to DSE, they said motor good switch bad.  Never cared since I don't drive it in the rain.  Glass is original(except windshield) and looks like 43 year old convertible glass.  All header panel chrome is new as are sunvisors.  Tilt steering wheel with beautiful Flaming river steering wheel(horn works).  All speedo, tach and gauges work.  Gas gauge works on and off, might be a loose wire or bad sending unit, am including a new sending unit with the car.  Never cared, just always kept plenty of gas in it.  All other lights, turnsignals, marker lights, reverse lights, etc work perfectly.  Rear lights are LED and light up super bright, look awesome, front head lights are projection style.

Ring Brothers:  Has many ring brothers dress up accessories on the car that look like fine jewelry.  Hood hinges, fender braces, astro ventilation covers, door strikers and SS hood louvers(billet aluminum).

I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff but you get the picture.  A really nice Camaro Convertible for a realistic reserve.  Car isn't perfect but it will give you little things to tinker with.  Car starts up like fuel injection and has never had any mechanical problems since I've been driving it, heck, pretty much everything is new!!!!!  Interesting fact about the car, 68 was a leap year, this car was built the 5th week of February witch I guess would be the 29th.  712 interior, F2(island teal with a black top).  02E production date.

Thanks for looking

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
