1968 Camaro "Copperhead"

You are bidding on a "just completed" Custom 1968 Camaro, this was a two year project involving thousands of man hours as well as the best parts available in the custom car market today.

We began by totally replacing all sheet metal, including the floor, doors, quarter panels, hood, trunk, fenders, valances, inner fenders etc, this was done to ensure a quality build that was not littered with body filler.

Next we installed a Pro-Touring front chassis from Heidts which included tubular upper and lower control arms, a power rack and pinion conversion, polished aluminum coil-over shocks, and a set of Wilwood 14" six piston brakes that are cross drilled and slotted with polished calipers!

Moving to the rear we added an all new nine inch rear housing from Currie which includes 33 spline axles and a Detroit Locker that holds Richmond 3.42 gears, stopping power comes from Wilwood cross drilled and slotted discs with polished calipers, all of this is secured under the car a with Heidts "Pro-G" four link setup with polished aluminum coil-overs, all of which is tied in with Heidts subframe connectors.

Once the chassis was complete, we had Boze make a set of custom forged wheels that measure 20x12 in the rear and 19x9 up front, they were then ceramic coated with well placed polished accents..

Power comes from a brand new GM 480HP LS3 Corvette engine, we dressed it up with polished aluminum drive accessories and bracketry as well as ceramic coated headers and custom coil covers.

The engine compartment is also home to dual Optima batteries, a custom polished aluminum cross-flow radiator, polished aluminum recovery tank, billet transmission cooler with braided lines, hi- flow electric fan with relay, custom fabricated wiper motor cover etc...

Harnessing the LS3 is the job of a brand new GM 6L80 six speed automatic transmission with tap-shift and rev-match programmed in.

Hundreds of hours were spent modifying the sheet metal to tastefully make the Camaro stand out in a crowd, changes include shaved door handles, shaved mirrors, shaved parking lamps, handmade front and rear fascias, handmade quarter panel and fender extensions, custom hood, handmade firewall, and probably the least noticed yet coolest body mod, we shrunk the front and rear glass openings and raised the glass so that it is flush mounted like the modern Camaro so we could ditch the bulky moldings..

Once the body was complete, we applied a custom mixed BASF Copper Pearl base, then added five coats of Hi-Solid BASF clear coat, once it baked it was wet sanded and hand buffed to a show car finish

On to the interior, we added custom power bucket seats up front, buckets seats in the rear, "all covered in black leather & black suede with nickel plated grommets", a custom water fall console that runs the entire length of the floor which holds power window switches, a GM shifter with tap-shift, LED lit cupholders, in-dash Navigation, custom billet A/C controller etc...

Other notables, all new wiring using 'Painless Products", all new wiper system from "Rain Gear", all new fuel lines, brake lines, glass, trim etc..

The list literally goes on and on, true car guys will know what they are looking at when they see it, it's ready to get in and drive cross country or to your favorite cruise night, hassle free and in style!

This is essentially an all new 1968 Camaro that was built using all of the modern drivetrain and creature comforts that make modern vehicles safe and fun to drive..

I will answer any and all questions..

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.
