1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Indy 500 Pace Car, Low Miles - No Reserve! on 2040-cars

Year:1982 Mileage:33837
Location:

Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States

Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States



The newly redesigned Camaro for 1982 was one of the most aerodynamic cars of its time and was awarded Motor Trend magazine "Car of the Year" honors. It later would be chosen to pace the 66th running of the Indianapolis 500 on May 30, 1982. This historical Z28 has been garage kept and retains all the nostalgic elements from the pace car package, such as the T-Tops, red-trimmed aluminum wheels and the original Silver finish with special pace car graphics.  It was originally purchased in Iowa and spent a majority of its life in Illinois before coming to Michigan in 2004.

This low-mileage Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Edition is powered by the 305ci (5.0L) V8 and automatic transmission; however, the notoriously problematic stock cross-fire injection was removed to preserve engine longevity. It has been replaced by a new Edelbrock Manifold and Carburetor. The AC pump has been removed to retain performance and a Sony CD deck has also been installed. Other than those modifications, the car remains entirely original and all removed parts have been preserved with the car (see photo).  Additional equipment includes power steering, power brakes, power locks, delay wipers, tilt steering, and rear defroster. The tires, brakes, plugs/wires, and distributor are all new. 

The odometer is true and reads 33,837 original miles. The car comes with original keys, owner’s manual, T-Top bag, all original parts, a clean CarFax report, and even an un-opened Johnny Lightning replica. This is a collector car that you can enjoy in the present and will retain its value, if not appreciate down the road. The car drives well with great sound coming from the dual exhaust. You won’t find many 3rd Generation Camaro Pace Car’s with low miles like this one. A true time capsule now for sale on eBay at NO RESERVE! Don’t let it slip away.

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

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
