So we all know that the Camaro had different generations and different looks, just like the Camaro Hub Caps that came on it. So here's some history on that fabulous Camaro that Ford dislikes ever so much.

It only took two years for GM and Chevy to realize that the Ford Mustang was doing extremely well and that they wanted to have their own "Mustang". In 1966, Chevy released the Pony model of the Camaro with Factory Original Camaro Wheel Covers on it. Even though it came out with kind of a cheap six cylinder for volume sales, the Camaro was available with a number of V8 engines and a multitude of different performance options.

As we all know, the 1967 Camaro with OEM Camaro Hubcaps was inspired by the already released Ford Mustang. Chevy stated that the word "Camaro" had originally come from the French word "comrade". There were some people that had to argue that that word was technically the Spanish word for a type of shrimp; but as you can tell, GM didn't care.

Even though the name was arguable, the Camaro had enough muscle to it to back up its case. The "new" Camaro was going to be based on the upcoming Chevy Nova platform at the time it was going to be released. From the time it was released, the Camaro had been offered in two different styles: a hardtop coupe or as a convertible model; not to mention that it had like 80 factory options and about 40 dealer accessories! It's almost like it was ahead of its time when it came out, you know?

There were three main option packages that were available with a choice of four different engines! There was an RS package that had more than enough cosmetic changes that included a blacked out grill with "hidden" headlights. The SS package had the 350 cid V8 standard with some sort of special bumble bee striping and the blacked out grill. There were some people that ordered the RS/SS Camaro, this is where the RS badging took priority.

The 1968 Chevy Camaro still had the OEM Camaro Wheel Covers on it, it just underwent some minor changes so it can seem more desirable to people who didn't want this car and even people who already wanted this car.

The grill looked more horizontal and the vent windows were dropped and something called "Astro Ventilation" was added. There were side marker lights added and the SS396 had received some chrome inserts.

When the 1969 model came out, you can tell that it had a lot more changes done to it. The grille all of a sudden had a deeper set and the taillamps were noticeably longer and thinner. This Camaro even had new fenders, new door skins, and new rear-quarter panels.. whatever those are. Inside of this fabulous Camaro, there was a redesigned dash and the seats were more comfortable than when it first came out! It seems like this car had everything, right?

The generation that we have now is probably one of the best ones that we have now. It combines all of the great things from the original Camaro and puts in the technology from today to make it even better than it ever was. It doesn't have the Camaro Hubcaps like the first generation did, but that doesn't mean the wheels aren't hard to look at.

So, out of everything that you just read, which one would you buy: the Ford Mustang or the Chevy Camaro?

Repower Your Seville and Save Money

The first Seville was an ultra-luxurious hardtop coupe introduced by Cadillac in 1956. The convertible version of the Eldorado was marketed as the Eldorado Biarritz and the hardtop was marketed as the Eldorado Seville. While other Cadillac cars were fitted with single 4-barrel carburetors and 285 horsepower engines, the Seville came equipped with two four-barrel carburetors and a 305 horsepower performance engine. The Northstar engine that would become synonymous with Cadillac was decades away at this time.

In 1957 and '58 the Eldorado was produced with stylish shark fin rear ends. It was the first appearance of a look which Cadillac would exploit shamelessly in the early ‘60s. They "out-finned" all other manufactures at this time, placing large cone-shaped tail lights conspicuously on the fins so that the red glow from the tail lights immediately gave the impression of flame shooting from the end of a rocket ship. Sevilles were also covered in chrome, which again gave the impression of some futuristic machine.

The name Seville disappeared from the Cadillac lineup in 1960, and didn't reappear until 1975. Introduced specifically to compete with Mercedes-Benz, the 1975 Cadillac Seville featured a 350 cid V8 engine, electronic fuel injection instead of carburetors and every option available on a car at the time. In 1992 the Seville was re-engineered again, but still featured a 4.9 liter pushrod V8 engine. The ultimate Seville was first produced a year later, in 1993, when Cadillac installed the 90o v-architecture Northstar engine.

The Northstar engine had a 4565 cc displacement and produced 300 horsepower from a cast aluminum 90° V8 block that featured 4-inch bore spacings split into unitary upper and lower halves. The lower crankcase assembly of the Northstar engine supported the crankshaft without the use of conventional main bearing caps. Under the Northstar engine's crankshaft was positioned an oil manifold plate with the oil galley formed by an integrated silicon gasket. The engine also featured cast-iron cylinder liners with bronze pin bushings and free-floating cast aluminum pistons.

The Cadillac Seville, from its earliest incarnation as a hardtop Eldorado to its ultimate appearance as a stand-alone product line with a Northstar engine, has always represented style, luxury and performance. These cars are highly sought-after today and Seville is one of the most popular cars for restoration projects. A rebuilt or used Cadillac engine, and a Northstar engine in particular, is considered a prize when restoring or retrofitting a car.

Finding a used Cadillac engine, whether a Northstar engine or not, used to be a daunting task. Buyers had to trek from salvage yard to salvage yard hunting for a used Cadillac engine that would meet whatever requirements the retrofit demanded. Times have changed significantly, however, and now all a person has to do is to provide the engine specifications to any salvage yard. They will do a computer search for a used Cadillac engine and tell you what is available. If you want the used Cadillac engine they locate, you buy it and they will have it shipped in.

Whenever you buy a used Cadillac engine, insist on a three-year warranty. Also, beware of shipping and handling charges. There are many places that will ship a used Cadillac engine free of charge – but of course they make up that money by charging more for the engine. It is important to look at the cost of the engine and shipping combined before making a purchasing decision.

What would be the least aceptable compression reading in a 390 CID Ford engine in a 1965 Ford Thunderbird?

I'm looking at buying this car,but i'm wandering why it's so cheap. I've driven it and it seems to run well.Every thing works on it,but i did a compression test on it and more than half of the cylinders read around 80. Am i looking to rebuild the engine in the near future?

she sounds kinda tired, but it might come up some with a bit of driving. The engine is rebuildable, if the body looks good, snag it!
