This is a 1971 Chevrolet Z28 Camaro drag racing car called "The Bandit". It is a 2 door hardtop coupe made into a drag car. The front hood is fiberglass with a scoop. I do not have the original hood. It has a solid body with minimal surface rust. There is some chipped paint around the edge of the front and back hoods. There are also some areas on the top hood of the car. The chrome on the car looks good. The inside of the car has been modified with a roll cage. The headliner is intact and the door panels. An RJS safety equipment seat belt has been installed in the driver's seat. The shifter is a Hurst Quarter Stick. I believe the transmission is 2 speed power glide. The windshield wipers have been removed and the battery is missing from the trunk. The engine is a 1965 Corvette 396 big block #3855962 with 427 heads. I understand these blocks are hard to find. It has a 12 bolt rear end. The odometer reads 43,399 miles but that wouldn't be the engine miles.I saw my husband race this car at a local track 12 years ago and it has been stored in a dry facility since. My husband bought the car in 1985 and owned it until he passed away in 2007. The car comes with a clear title. I am selling as is but I don't believe there is anything wrong with the car except that it has been sitting for years. I am not good at writing these descriptions of cars so you can call me with questions. Serious inquiries can email me and I will send you my phone number to answer your questions.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General 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.
Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
