  Purchased near Fargo North Dakota from an estate of an elderly gentleman who ironically purchased it from the original owners' estate in 1983. A very clean and garage kept car that runs and drives fantastic. We installed a 4 corner airride suspension to give the car a great lowered stance and a more comfortable ride, this is a procedure that we have perfected in the last 20 years of doing this type of work almost on a daily basis, unlike most systems that are on the road which leak and don't perform properly, ours is trouble free and easy to operate and there is no maintenance needed, if you like, you can just set it and forget it!! The car has an excellent body but before the new paint was applied, had its fair share of stone chips, a few door dings, and a couple of scrapes so at first we thought we would just touch up the couple areas but then deciding the car was far too nice to not to give it a show quality paint job. We straightened all the dings and scrapes, we smoothed all the stone chips and painted the car with base - clear urethane. It came out so nice most people would have left it alone but we again decided as nice as the car is, it deserved a wet sand and polish of the clearcoat. The paint is beautiful and looks a foot deep. When reassembling the car, we purchased new rubber seals for the doors and trunk. We installed new sill plates that hold down the original rubber mat, new chrome outside door handles and seals. We polished up the original dog dish hub caps and installed them on a new set of custom built 18x8" and 20x8.5" Billet wheels available only through our shop. New tires installed at the same time. We color matched the center part of the wheel to give the car a factory but contemporary look. The interior is in very nice shape for its age, the front seat bottom is starting to show some age but being a survivor interior I would leave it as it for now. Everything works on the car, horn, signals, lights, wipers, etc. We installed a new exhaust, it still had the 52 year old factory system on it and we only changed it because we needed more clearance for the rear wheels. The fuel gauge was not functioning when we bought the car so we installed a new fuel sending unit to take care of the faulty gauge but we figured we may as well install a new gas tank since we have it out. A great little car that came well equipped in 1962 if you were a cheap old man, no radio, rubber mat, 6 cylinder with a 3 on the tree. Enjoy it as is or throw in your dual quad 409 or LS3 in it and have even more fun. If you have any questions, feel free to email or call me at PatinaPlantation@Gmail.com 216-789-1647    OK, now here is the part I hate to mention only because eBay has become a breeding ground for jokers and squirrels, This is serious business not a game. this is for adults with integrity, not only me as a seller but you as a buyer. The last several successful listings I've had on eBay were non payers, flat out dreamers that thought bidding on eBay is fun and its no big deal to win an auction and than decide that they should have never done it whether they couldn't afford it or their wife wouldn't let them have it or whatever. There is a reason my feedback is squeaky clean, its because I HAVE INTEGRITY and I do the right thing. If you want to know the reserve, you will have to bid I know 100% that there are people who will not read the description and will call or email me asking how much, I know from experience those people will not buy this car or any car for that matter, they are dreaming for a great car for way under market and will troll ebay and never buy a thing, people who are serious will bid on the car. In my opinion the reserve is very reasonable. Those who bid and retract their bid will get blocked from any further bidding. Sorry for the rant

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla sells Model S 85 and 70D in Malaysia, Chevy Spark EV built using clean energy

Mon, May 18 2015

Tesla will send Model S 70D and Model S 85 EVs to Malaysia for leasing to government-linked companies. Only those companies will have access to the models as a two-year lease, which will be imported and leased by Malaysian Green Technology Corporation. The plan is part of an initiative by the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water to allow government officials and other influential people to get to know the electric vehicles and the benefits that come along with them. Most of the 120 vehicles available will be the 70D model, and the lessee companies will have the option to purchase the cars at the end of the two years. Read more from Paul Tan's Automotive News. Wanxiang is hosting students from Delaware in China as part of a program to learn Mandarin and visit schools and science and technology sites. Wanxiang, the auto parts company that acquired Fisker (which had manufacturing based in Delaware) and battery maker A123 Systems, will give the students tours of its solar technology facilities, among other places, and see what daily life is like for families in the region. The program helps students interested in science and technology to foster marketable skills — like learning a foreign language — that will help them get jobs in industries around the world.

The e-motors building of the General Motors Baltimore Operations complex has a new rooftop solar array and uses LED and CFL lighting, helping the building recently earn LEED Silver certification. The landfill-free facility also takes advantage of the 1.23-megawatt solar array on the grounds, helping it source six percent its energy from renewable sources. The plant has reduced its energy intensity by 15.5 percent in three years, and continues to work toward reducing consumption and sourcing clean energy. "We believe reducing our environmental footprint is good for the climate and good for our business," says GM Executive Director of Global Public Policy Greg Martin.

GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee

Tue, Sep 8 2015

General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.
