This is a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro shell / body + parts for sale.
1) All body panels including but not limited to shell, front quarterpanels, hood, doors, front and rear spoilers, trunk lid, etc.
14) Other misc. Camaro emblems
15) Gas tank
Condition
The camaro was stripped down to its components parts and taken to Metal Finishing Services in Jackson, MS where all body and frame parts were dipped to
remove ALL rust and then e-coated. There is no hidden rust on this vehicle. This service alone costs $4,000.
All body panels are in very good shape except for the shell. The shell needs extensive work to be ready for painting. Mainly replacement sections of
the floor pan, trunk bottom, and around the back glass. The shell has also had replacement rear quarterpanels previously installed. The induction hood has a
small raised 1/4 ” section that will need to be smoothed out. Please note that the shell does not have a trim tag.
The frame was also stripped and e-coated. It is in excellent condition.
The cast steel control arms need recoating but are otherwise in good shape, but the rest of the suspension components will probably need replacing. I do have
the tie rods, and probably the rear leaf springs if desired.
The dash and console pieces are all intact, but I am unsure if they are functioning. This includes AC controls and dash instruments.
The front and rear seats are dusty but upholstered without cuts.
The door innards (cranks and such) are all there, including the door knobs and locks.
The rear axle assembly and driveshaft will need to be sandblasted and recoated.
Additional pictures are available upon request. Keep in mind all body pieces except for the shell are wrapped in adhesive backed bubble wrap which would have
to be destroyed, which I am hesitant to do outside of a serious offer on the vehicle.
You will want to bring a big trailer to pick this up. It's about 3 crates full of stuff plus the frame, shell, and all body panels.
Payment:
Reserve is $4,000 firm. $500 paypal deposit within 48 hours. This is non-refundable. If the deposit is not placed, I will contact the next buyer in line. Serious buyers ONLY. It is not my fault if you didn’t read or request additional pictures. The remaining payment is to be made in full at time of pickup.
No trades.
Additional pictures can be found at the link below. They are BIG, about 5 MB per. It's a sampling of the major components in the 3 crates o' stuff.
Here you can see pictures of:
Front grill
windshield wipers
glove box
various hood / door hinges.
headers
seats front and back
front and rear light covers
steering column
Hardware labeled in zip lock bags
Radiator support bracket
brake mounting bracket + brake
Rear axle assembly + housing + drum brakes
Shocks & mounts

Knuckles that went with them.
As you can see they are in various states of condition. If you want more pictures, just send me a message and I'll get more detail for you.
Edit. The rear spoiler was not e-coated as I believe it's made out of some kind of fiberglass?
To re-iterate and answer a few questions I've received from my previous auction ...
The body panels and frame were submerged and e-coated. This is not similar to media blasting. This is much more in-depth and expensive; Simply, it doesn't
get any better. Taken from Metal Finishing Service's website:
Metal Finishing Services uses non-destructive thermal and chemical processes to remove paint or other coatings from metal surfaces. We can handle parts
ranging in size from small fasteners to 10 tons and 20' long. Customers include manufactures, equipment rebuilders, engine overhaul shops, antique car
restorers, contractors and many others.
For manufacures, we strip paint line rejects, racks and hangers
Equipment rebuilders use our services when re-working pumps, housing, electrical panels, and other parts.
We strip entire auto bodies, frames and other parts for antique car restorers.
Engine blocks, heads and miscellaneous parts are cleaned of all paint, grease, oil, and rust for rebuilder.
Rust Removal Services
Metal Finishing Service uses a non-destructive alkaline electro-chemical derusting process. No metal loss or hydrogen embrittlement results, unlike processes
using acids or abrasive cleaning. Parts up to 20' feet long and 10 tons can be handled.
For manufacturers, parts rejected by quality control due to rust are derusted.
For engine overhaul shops and equipment rebuilders rust can be removed from both exposed areas and internal passages such as water jackets and heat
exchangers.
We are able to derust badly rusted sheet metal parts for car restorers without causing further damage. We even do work for museums.
Electrocoating Services
Metal Finishing Services provides electrocoating (E-Coating) on parts as a primer. This is an immersion process where parts are placed in a bath and an
electrical voltage is used to attract the paint to all areas of a part, including inaccessible areas such as the inside of pipes. A black cathodic epoxy coating is
used which is identical to the process used by most auto manufacturers. Prior to E-coating a zinc phosphate coating is applied
E-Coating is compatible with any finish coat, including powder coatings or solvent based paints. It provides superior corrosion protection , especially when
followed by a powder coat topcoat.
Typical applications include auto bodies , frames and misc. parts, outdoor furniture, oilfield equipment , marine applications and any thing requiring superior
corrosion resistance.
E-coating services are provided for manufacturers, auto restorers, equipment rebuilders and others.

It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
