1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo on 2040-cars
Macclesfield, North Carolina, United States
Rare first year 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo. It has gold paint with a black top. I am the 3rd owner
of the car. It was purchased by a lady that had it for many years before passing away. It was then purchased by a
friend of mine. I watched him use it as a daily driver and I couldn't let him abuse this beauty anymore so I bought
it and put it in the garage. It's got only roughly 67500 original miles. It's a 400 small block engine. I've
replaced all tires, the brakes, head gaskets, battery, wiring, struts, muffler, and starter that can remember (
since I don't drive the car very often the first start takes a minute). It had a transmission flush and some
general work done. I have replaced the speakers and put a CD player with 3.5 jack in the glove compartment. I've
replaced the front right light bezel and the rims. I have had some carbonator work done but it could use more. I
have replaced the dash and head board lamps and bezels along with the visors, knobs, headrests, and re-detailed the
dashboard. I've had the locks redone as well as started fixing the air condition but it still needs a new hose.
There is some minor rust residue in the wheel wells and some minor bubbling in a couple of places under the canvas
top. There are no tears or rips on the top canvas or in the interior. Car runs pretty good but I don't drive her
enough and hence looking for a good home. I keep her on a trickle charger most of the time. Cosmetic things that I replaced I made sure they fit a 1970 Monte Carlo. Interior is black with a wood grain dash. Car is a automatic. There isn't any
major body damage and to my knowledge all original. All in all a great example off this classic.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
