Looks like an upcoming Arnold Schwarzenegger movie titled “The Last Stand” will feature an all GM, all Chevy fight between GM’s two most potent cars – the Camaro ZL1 and Corvette ZR1.

Schwarzenegger is the hero in the movie and his car of choice is the ZL1, while the bad-guy car will be a Corvette ZR1.

The movie hits the silver screen on Jan 18, 2013.

Our First COPO Camaro (#008) Delivery!

Posted by: admin In: Main ()

Congrats to Codefive for taking delivery of his COPO Camaro, the first reported by a site member!

As COPO Camaros began delivery this week, he had the pleasure of picking up COPO Camaro #008 for ATI. Delivery was taken at the Wixom, MI plant at 1PM. What are ATI’s plans for the car?

It will get a wrap in the very near future and then can be found next to ATI’s Drag Pack Challenger at an NHRA event near you. It will be out testing next week and they are hopeful to make the Divisional race at Cecil next weekend and then Indy for the Nationals on Labor Day weekend.

Video Summary:

If words like Camaro, Corvette, and Chevelle send chills up your spine, this is [VIDEO] for you. Chevrolet began making cars in 1911, and this documentary follows its history for the past 100 years. The film traces the evolution of Chevy’s car design, from the very first Series C Classic Six through lowriders, the corvette, muscle cars and the Silverado.

Car lovers will swoon as private owners show off their restored 1950’s vintage Chevy’s at car shows, and historians will enjoy tidbits about how Chevy took its name from a spicy Frenchman named Louis Chevrolet who sold his shares for a pittance after being told by a bigwig he should switch from cigarettes to cigars to be more of a gentleman. Growing up, my parents owned Pintos, so I developed no appreciation of cars but instead a healthy level of fear of them in case someone rear ended us and we exploded. But even being a car non-enthusiast, I was very engaged by this documentary by Roger Sherman. It’s not just about the technical aspects of the cars, but more how America’s history shaped their design. How they had to shave 700 lbs. off of cars when the (first) gas crisis hit to make them more fuel efficient. How after WWII and Vietnam cars became faster, and how Prohibition contributed to stock car racing because gangsters had to have fast cars to outrun the police with their deliveries of moonshine. And for you fellow ladies think cars are only for boys, there are just as many women talking about their vintage babies as men in this film. For you Ford lovers, sorry, this is strictly Chevy country.
