1980 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Coupe - Fresh Paint, Sounds Awesome! on 2040-cars

Year:1980 Mileage:75000

Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States

Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States



Offered here is a beautiful 1980 Chevrolet Camaro Z28, freshly painted and ready for summer. The original 305 was pulled from the car and replaced with a newer IROC Camaro 350ci V8, bored .30 and added mild cam. It has dual exhaust with headers and glass packs ending at the rear axle. It also has a 3.73 rear with limited slip differential plus new radiator, alternator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, vacuum lines, and a remanufactured QuadraJet carb. It offers a wonderful nostalgic driving experience and sounds sublime with the pedal down.

This car did not undergo a frame off restoration but all doors, deck lid, hood, trim and all flares were removed and refinished. The car was originally light green metallic from the factory but was professionally painted silver by previous owner’s preference, and it stands tall. Paint job is top class and lines are exceptionally clean. New cosmetic additions include new door rubber, instrument cluster, trunk seal, factory striping from Phenyx graffix, new sound-deadening carpet, and front/rear windshield trim clips. Everything else was thoroughly cleaned and precisely put back together from the original car. It’s not perfect by any means but it sure will turn some heads at stoplights. 

Noteworthy features include the original Z28 course steering wheel, functioning Air Induction hood cowl, original factory slam shifter, power steering, and all gauges/lights work on the dash. This is no trailer queen but definitely worthy of any car show. It has great curb appeal and runs/drives as you’d expect from a tastefully modified second generation Camaro. One word: thrilling. These Z28’s are becoming more collectible meaning they are harder and harder to find, especially ones that look this good! At the price offered here, you don’t have to be bashful behind the wheel…or with your wallet. 

Please contact me with any and all questions. 

This vehicle is being offered for sale through Garage Kept Motors, LLC. Listing may be taken down early due to local sale.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.

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.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
