DENT NEAR REAR DOOR
BONDO PUTTY ON REAR DOOR
REAR DOORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND SPRAY PAINTED AND YOU CAN TELL IT
INSIDE OF REAR DOORS IS GREY NOT TAN
RUNNING BOARDS WERE REPLACED AND DO NOT FIT LIKE THE OTHER ONES DID. YOU CAN TELL THE ARE NOT THE PROPER FIT BUT THE COLOR DOES MATCH NICELY.
THE WHEELS HAVE PITTING AND RASH
NUMEROUS SCRATCHES AND DINGS
DOOR HANDLES ARE THE TYPICAL ASTRO HANDLES BUT THEY ALL WORK
SEATS ARE EITHER STAINED OR THEY HAVE WEAR SPOTS - I JUST CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHICH IT IS
THERE ARE A COUPLE SMALL HOLES ON THE PASSENGER SEAT (see pic)
DASH HAS A TEAR SPOT (see pic)
2-4 STAINS OR BURNS ON CEILING
ONE OF THE CAPTAINS CHAIRS IS BROKEN. IT IS NOT SHOWN IN THE PICTURES.. I HAVE THE CHAIR. IT WILL NOT SIT UPRIGHT. IT CAN BE REPAIRED AND IT'S YOURS IF YOU WANT IT.
THE REAR BLINDS WERE REMOVED, AS THEY WERE BAD.
THERE ARE 2 CUPHOLDERS IN THE REAR THAT NEED THE PLASTIC.
THERE ARE STAINS ON THE CARPET.
THERE ARE A CLUSTER OF SMALL TEARS ON THE BIG SLIDING DOOR.
THE WINDOW SWITCH FELL INTO THE PASSENGER DOOR. IT'S BEEN IN THERE FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT I THINK IT WORKED. THE WINDOW GOES UP AND DOWN FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE.
SOMETIMES THE LOCKS DON'T UNLOCK THE DOOR ALL THE WAY.
THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT IS ON BUT THE BRAKES FEEL GOOD.
THE REAR SPEAKERS WILL SOUND DISTORED WITH HEAVY BASS
THE CHAIRS ARE FEELING BROKE IT.
THE A/C WILL STAY COLD FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS AND THEN THE FREON LEAKS OUT
THERE IS A WHINING ROAR COMING FROM THE REAR. MAYBE DIFFERENTIAL, MAYBE WHEEL BEARING. WE'VE NEVER CHECKED IT. THE VAN ALSO SEEMS TO TO KIND OF "SKIP" WHEN YOU MAKE A SLOW HARD TURN, IF THAT MAKES SENSE.
WHEN YOU COME TO A QUICK STOP THE VAN DOES A PULSATING/VIBRATING. ROTORS MAY NEED TURNED.
THE REAR AREA UNDER THE VAN ON THE SIDES IS PUSHED UP ON BOTH SIDES. WE THINK THIS MAY HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE PRIOR RUNNING BOARDS. SINCE THE RUNNING BOARDS WERE GONE WE DON'T KNOW IF THE SIDES HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH HOW THEY WERE ON. BOTH SIDES ARE THE SAME WAY.

 THE BAD LIST MAY FRIGHTEN A BIDDER BUT I CAN TRULY SAY, IF I HAD TO DRIVE FROM MISSOURI TO MAINE AND LEAVE TOMORROW - I'D JUMP IN THIS VAN AND I WOULDN'T THINK TWICE. IN THE LAST YEAR WE'VE MADE ABOUT $1000 IN REPAIRS AND WE HAVE ALMOST ALL THE RECEIPTS AND MOST OF THEM ARE LIFETIME WARRANTIES. THE VAN STARTS EVERYTIME, DRIVES SMOOTH DOWN THE ROAD AND ON THE COLDEST SUB ZERO MORNINGS IT ALWAYS STARTED.

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Chevrolet Turbo Sprint

Sun, Feb 6 2022

Fifteen years ago, I wrote my first-ever automotive article under the name Murilee Martin, and it didn't take me long to start writing about one of my favorite automotive subjects: the junkyard. Before I'd refined my system for documenting discarded vehicles, however, I shot a lot of boneyard photos that never got used. For today's Junkyard Gem, I have four shots from early 2007 of one of the rarest turbocharged machines of the 1980s: the Chevrolet Turbo Sprint. The Chevrolet Sprint was really a rebadged Suzuki Cultus, from the pre-Geo era when General Motors sold the Isuzu Gemini as the Chevrolet Spectrum, the Daewoo LeMans as the Pontiac LeMans and the Toyota Corolla as the Chevrolet Nova (soon enough, the Spectrum became a Geo, and the Nova became the Prizm). The second-generation Cultus appeared in 1988, becoming the Geo Metro on our shores the following year. The Turbo Sprint was available for just the last two years of the Sprint's 1985-1988 American sales run, and it appears that just a couple of thousand were sold; if I'd known at the time just how rare they were, I'd have shot more photos of this one at the now-defunct Hayward Pick Your Part. The turbocharged 993cc three-cylinder produced 70 horsepower, 22 better than the naturally-aspirated version. Since the Turbo Sprint weighed just 1,620 pounds (that's about 500 pounds lighter than a barely more powerful '22 Mitsusbishi Mirage), it was plenty of fun to drive. For 1988, the regular Sprint hatchback cost $6,380 while the Turbo Sprint listed at $8,240 (that's about $15,375 and $19,855 today, respectively). Believe it or not, a Turbo Sprint actually raced in the 24 Hours of Lemons 10 years ago, though it didn't end well. This ad is for the regular Cultus, not the Cultus Turbo, but the screaming guitars sound reasonably turbocharged. For the most part, Chevy Sprint marketing was all about cheap purchase price and stingy fuel economy… at a time when gasoline prices were cratering. Related Video:

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.

Jay Leno gets pulled over while roaring in a Corvette Z06 convertible

Tue, Jan 6 2015

No one is above the law, even if that person is a certain silver-haired auto enthusiast with a popular weekly video series about the cars in his garage. This week, Jay Leno experiences the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z06, but he also gets to have a meeting with some of California's Finest immediately after a high-speed blast. As opposed to the full-bore Z06 coupe with the seven-speed manual, Leno gets behind the wheel of the slightly heavier convertible version with the eight-speed auto. Being a droptop doesn't bother him too much, but Leno makes it obvious he wishes that he could be shifting for himself. Even if the auto is technically quicker, Leno says that swapping gears gives him something to do while driving. Of course, one of the major advantages of the convertible is the ability to listen to the Z06's thumping V8 unimpeded. With 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from 6.2-liters of supercharged muscle, it already puts down impressive numbers, but the sound might just be the best part of all. Around town, the 'Vette is quiet enough to easily blend in with the rest of traffic. However, tip the throttle down and the valves in the exhaust open up to turn the engine into roaring monster. Be careful where you make this thing howl, though, because it's pretty easy for the police to take notice. The host finds that out the hard way in this week's episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
