1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 on 2040-cars
Novato, California, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email: loganlllamonda@winetasters.net .
When the car was acquired in 1997, the odometer read 00002 miles (It had been reset to all zeros when the restoration was done). It now has a little over 1800 miles on it.
The original, numbers matching DZ 302 engine has a factory GM cross ram set-up on it, and the correct carburetors were recently rebuilt by Holley. There are two hood/air filter set ups that are included with the car; one of them is pictured on the car (steel cowl hood), and another one (not pictured) which is a fiberglass cowl hood painted to match the car. A large black factory style cross ram air cleaner (with a foam seal) that mates to the underside of that hood is also included. The car is currently running with an electronic ignition "cheater" style distributor (looks stock), but the original dual point distributor is also included. There is also a special GM NOS cross ram cam kit which also goes with the car (last picture).
The 4 speed transmission works flawlessly, but is not believed to be the original transmission. The numbers stamped on right side of the case are: "P9B28A", and "19B361011" for anyone who wants to decode them. There is also another shifter handle / mechanism that is included with the car, too. The 12 bolt axle is 4:11 to 1 Positraction, and I think a second set of gears (3:73) is also included.
The car runs, drives and stops very nicely with no problems to report. It has always been garage kept since the owner acquired it, and fed a diet of high octane fuel. The car has had the heater and radio delete items when the owner got it in 1997, so these are believed to be original GM parts. The interior (carpet/seats/headliner) is in excellent condition with no rips or tears, and all the gauges work like they should. The owner added a tilt steering column to make it more comfortable for him to drive. Interior also features a console with the gauge pack, and a wood grain steering wheel.
The data plate under the hood indicates that this is an original green/green car. I inspected the paint & body work carefully and while it is presentable, it does has a few dings here and there. I also noted areas that appear to be possibly either touch ups or repairs, and I suspect a good color sand and buff would help.
An appraiser was hired to estimate the value of this Z28 for insurance purposes several years, and he pegged the value at over $100k, so I guess he was impressed with it. The report is included with the car, as is some other miscellaneous paperwork. However, no window sticker, build sheet or factory invoice has ever been found. The car was reputedly owned by Reggie Jackson in the 1990's.

Officially Official: Chevrolet replaces Daewoo name in Korea

Chevrolet Camaro in Korea - Click above for high-resolution image
There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
