IT HAS THE NORMAL DINGS YOU WOULD EXPECT WITH AGE & MILEAGE, BUT NO HUGE DENTS AND NO RUST WHATSOEVER. A SMALL AMOUNT OF THE VINYL HAS COME OFF IN THE CREVACES ON THE FRONT DOORS AND IT CAN ALL BE REMOVED EASILY. THERE ARE TWO MINOR PINHEAD SIZE CHIPS IN THE ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD.

THE INTERIOR IS AMAZING. IT HAS TWO CAPTAIN'S CHAIRS AND TWO BENCHES. ALL ARE PERFECT EXCEPT FOR A 1/4" HOLE IN THE MIDDLE BENCH SEAT AND ONE ARMREST DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. THE DASH, LEATHER-WRAP WHEEL, DOOR PANELS, HEADLINER AND CARPETS ARE EXCELLENT. IT EVEN HAS THE ORIGINAL GM BRANDED FLOOR MATS IN PLACE. THERE IS AMPLE STORAGE WTH THREE SIDE COMPARTMENTS, A GLOVE BOX AND OVERHEAD IN THE CONSOLE. THERE ARE TWO POWER PORTS IN FRONT AND ONE IN THE REAR, ALONG WITH TIE-DOWNS.

MECHANICALLY IT IS EXCELLENT, WITH MAINTAINENCE PERFORMED REGULARLY. IT HAS NO LEAKS, SQUEAKS, RATTLES OR SMOKE. THE TIRES ARE AT 50-75% WITH AN ALIGNMENT LAST YEAR. THE FACTORY ALLOY RIMS ARE VERY GOOD AND PROPERLY BALANCED. ALL LIGHTS, SWITCHES, GAUGES AND RADIO OPERATE AS INTENDED AND THE AIR BLOWS COLD, FRONT & REAR. THE JACK & SPARE APPEAR UNUSED.

OVERALL, THIS IS AN ABOVE-AVERAGE EXAMPLE OF THESE VERY POPULAR VANS THAT ARE GETTING HARD TO FIND DUE TO PRODUCTION CEASING IN 2005. WITH AN AVERAGE OF 1000 MILES A MONTH, THE MILES ARE IN LINE. I HAVE TRIED TO REPRESENT THE VEHICLE AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE, HOWEVER IT IS A USED VEHICLE, WITH NO WARRANTY AND WITH BLEMISHES YOU WOULD EXPECT WITH THE AGE & MILES.

TERMS: NO PAYPAL, $500 DEPOSIT WITHIN 72 HRS OF AUCTION CLOSING, BALANCE DUE IN 5 BUSINESS DAYS. IT IS ADVERTISED LOCALLY SO IT MAY BE REMOVED AT ANY TIME. PICK-UP IS BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY, BUT WE WILL WORK WITH YOUR TRANSPORTER.

FINALLY, REMEMBER, A BID CONSTITUTES A LEGAL CONTRACT.  DO NOT BID IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS-EMAIL FIRST.  DO NOT BID IF YOU HAVE ZERO FEEDBACK-EMAIL FIRST.  IF YOU HAVE A RECORD OF NON-PAYMENT DO NOT BID AT ALL. THANK YOU.

GM tells owners not to use SUV wipers due to fire risk

Sun, Oct 11 2015

General Motors is recalling 31,685 examples of the 2016 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia because a short circuit in the windshield wiper motor can potentially lead to a fire. Due to the danger, the company is asking owners not to use the wipers until the problem is fixed, according to The Detroit Free Press citing the Associated Press. A manufacturing defect in the wiper motor cover means that the electrical terminals can come into contact and cause a short. The part could "melt, smoke, or catch fire," according to a statement from GM. The company will get them fixed immediately, and dealers will replace the cover. If there's bad weather at the time the owner specifies to get the recall work completed, the automaker will come pick up the crossovers. Depending on parts availability, the automaker will supply a rental car for customers, as well. The issue was discovered at the factory. According to the company's statement, only 6,405 actually made it to customers, and they were notified immediately by overnight letter. The rest were in dealer stock. The affected crossovers carry build dates between August 18, 2015 and September 24, 2015. Of those, there are 29,295 in the US and 1,073 in Canada. GM Statement: General Motors has told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it will recall approximately 29,295 2016 model year Chevrolet Traverse, Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia SUVs in the U.S. because the front windshield wiper motor may overheat when in use because of a manufacturing defect. In some cases, the front windshield wiper motor cover may melt, smoke or catch fire. The approximately 6,405 customers who have taken delivery of these vehicles were notified by overnight letter and are urged to contact a GM dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service appointment. These customers should not use the front windshield wipers until they have been repaired. If weather conditions prevent driving the vehicle without using the windshield wipers, GM will arrange to pick up the vehicle for servicing. If repair parts are unavailable, GM will provide a rental car at no cost until parts become available. The total population, including Canada, Mexico and exports, is approximately 31,685. About 25,280 of these vehicles are in dealer stock and will not be sold until repairs are made.

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
