  • 1967 Camaro RS/SS survivor - image: Barn Finds

    The problem with most barn find stories is that they generally start out with “I knew a guy who’d heard of a guy whose neighbor bought a mint-condition Cobra at a garage sale for $500.” The further away from the point of origin, the taller the tale generally gets. In reality that $500 Cobra was likely a 1975 Mustang II, largely consumed by tinworm and powered by the 2.3-liter four-banger. The Cobra part? Just a decal added by an overly-optimistic former owner. Sometimes, collector car dreams do come true, though. Barn Finds tells us the story of Zach S., who tracked down his...

    Germany’s Bitter Planning New Corvette-Based Sports Car: Report

  • Corvette LS7-powered Chevy Spark
    Corvette Z06-Powered Chevy Spark: Seven Liters Of Terror?

    Big engine, little car: it's a classic formula. Sometimes it is taken to extremes. Sometimes it's taken to ludicrous extremes. And sometimes, someone shoehorns a 7.0-liter LS7 from a Corvette Z06 into a Chevy Spark. The car, which appears to also wear extensive track-focused modifications like a...

  • 2013 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE
    Chevrolet Performance Introduces New Parts For The Camaro

    If you’re a Chevy Camaro fan on a limited budget, chances are good there isn’t a Camaro ZL1 parked in your garage. In fact, you may not even be able to pay the monthly tab on a Camaro SS 1LE, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make your existing Camaro go faster, stop shorter...

  • Chevy's final 2012 COPO Camaro

    At last year’s SEMA show, Chevy announced that it would build 69 COPO Camaros for the 2012 model year. The number was in honor of the original COPO (short for Central Office Production Order) Camaro, which hit the drag strip in 1969 as a factory-built race car. Like the originals, the new COPO Camaros are built with one thing in mind: getting through the traps at the end of the quarter-mile as quickly as possible. In fact, the modern versions aren’t even street-legal, but that’s had no impact on the demand for the collectible race cars, since over 3,000 buyers have expressed...

  • State Farm's one-of-a-kind 1968 Camaro

    When it comes to restored or modified cars, an insurance agent can either be your best friend or your biggest nightmare. Few things are worse that finding out your cherished ride wasn’t insured for replacement value, adding insult to the injury of theft or accident damage. State Farm Insurance wants to train its agents on the difference between “fully restored” and “modified” collector cars, so it’s built a rather unique 1968 Camaro convertible as a demonstrator. The left side, spayed in Butternut Yellow, is typical of a full restoration; the right side...

  • Mary Pozzi's near-flawless 1971 Camaro

    When it comes to hot rods, muscle cars and pro touring cars, superlatives are often handed out as freely as bumper stickers on the campaign trail. Everyone claims to have the best handling, the fastest or the most artfully-built ride, but chances are good you’ve never heard of the car that likely wins in all these categories. To understand the car, first you need to understand its driver and builder, Mary Pozzi. Mary is an 11-time SCCA Solo champion, auto journalist and test driver, married to David Pozzi, who’s got something like four decades worth of experience in building race...

    Last May we brought you the news that a 1967 Corvette Coupe once owned by astronaut Neil Armstrong had surfaced on eBay, in worn but restorable condition.
