Annapolis, Maryland, United States
|
I am listing the most reliable day driver car I have ever
had. I purchased this car 8 years ago and have put 22,000 miles on the car.
This beautiful car originally came from California, it was then in Washington
state. I purchased it from a man in Ohio. The car is solid. You can check out
all the pictures that I took of under the car. There no rot in any of the floor
panels and rockers. The car is a very
rare color combination of Safire Blue and white. All the trim inside and out is
in good condition. The front brakes have been converted to vented Disk Brakes.
The suspension is all Air ride with 1/8 manual valves. The great thing is you
can leave it pumped up in the garage and it will not lose any air for weeks.
You can slam the car down when you park it and it looks amazing!! I get stopped
every single time I drive the car. When you inflate the suspension it rises to
full stock ride height. I installed new
carpet and headliner when I got it. They are reproduction of stock. We
installed a very custom Hidden radio in the car. You just hit a switch under
the dash and the radio folds out of where the radio delete plate is installed.
It has a speaker in the front dash and 2 that are hidden in the rear speaker
panel. There are 2 amps in the trunk that power everything, including 2, 10
inch subs. I have a cable that comes from under the dash to plug in my i-pod or
my phone. I run Pandora radio through the radio. I did not want to install ugly
antennas on the car. The seats are original with very rear iridescent fabric
that you can see when the sun shines on the interior. Everything in the car works except wipers. I
never drive the car in the rain and if I get caught in the rain I have so much
rain x on the windshield they are not needed. I you want wipers fixed before
taking delivery, that can be arranged. Just call me and we can work out a deal.
I
would not classify this car as a show car, but 90 percent of the people who see
it would say that it is. I would give the car 9 out of 10. It is awesome but
not so perfect that you are afraid to drive it. As you can see by the amount of
miles I have put on it. When I purchased this car from Ohio I drove it home.
You could drive this home if you want. The transmission is 3 on the tree. The
car will cruise at 65 mph with no problem. As you can see from the pictures it
is a 6 cylinder. It gets great gas mileage. Maybe 22mpg? . I have never
actually figured it out. This car is the perfect cruiser. It is smooth and relaxing
to drive. I like it stock with the 6 cylinder. If you wanted to drop a v8 and
make it a Resto-mod this would be the perfect car. One just sold for 60k on Gas
monkey garage. I have seen several of these car sell in that price range on Ebay.
The wheels are chrome and are made by
Coy’s. They are 20’s in the back and 18 in the front. There is only one spot of
rust and that id on the passenger rear quarter panel. See the pictures! I have
a new NOS quarter that is included in the auction. Engine runs great, has new battery. Valves
are little noisy when it is 50 degrees outside but goes away when engine warms
up. Only does that when the temperatures drop. It does not do that in summer or
spring. Has fairly new cap rotor and wires. I would not sell this car but I
have 5 hot rods and another baby on the way. I need to finish other cars and
down size a little. Unfortunately more kids does sometimes mean less toy. Lol.
I do not have to sell this car but it will free up the cash to finish my 49
merc. Call me if you have any questions Mr. Ashley Thompson 443 994 5927. I
will answer any questions you have. (Please look at all the pictures before you
call) |

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists
Sat, Oct 24 2015Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?
Sat, Mar 26 2016High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.
Recharge Wrap-up: Lexus CT 200h is NWAPA's favorite hybrid, 'No Charge to Charge' in LA
Thu, Jul 24 2014The Northwest Automotive Press Association (NWAPA) has given the Lexus CT 200h its Favorite Hybrid title. It named the compact luxury hybrid its favorite of 2014 at its Drive Revolution in Portland (where it also named the new Volkswagen Golf TDI the Northwest Green Car of the Year). According to NWAPA president Nik Miles, the CT 200h earned the honor for "impressive combination of state-of-the-art small car luxury and hybrid technology." For 2014, the Lexus CT200h got an updated front end, including the spindle grille we've been seeing on new Lexus vehicles, plus a redesigned steering wheel and sliding sun visors. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet credits the Malibu for helping make stop-start mainstream. Chevrolet started including stop-start technology standard in Malibus equipped with the four-cylinder engine. Chevy has sold about 83,000 of that model, so 97 percent of 2014 and 2015 Malibu sales include stop-start. Now, that technology has made its way into the 2015 Impala. With drivers idling an average of 16 minutes a day, stop-start can significantly reduce harmful emissions and save fuel. According to Navigant Research, we can expect annual sales of cars equipped with stop-start technology to surpass 55 million by 2022. Read more in the press release below. Nissan Leaf customers in Los Angeles will get access to free charging beginning August 15. Nissan is extending its "No Charge to Charge" promotion to LA, which will allow customers to charge at public charging stations at no cost. Leaf customers - including those who bought or leased their car from the participating dealerships on or after July 1 - will get an EZ-Charge card, allowing them to use ChargePoint, Blink, CarCharging, AeroVironment and NRG eVgo chargers for free. Rapid chargers can charge the Leaf's battery to 80 percent in 30 minutes. Nissan plans to offer the "No Charge to Charge" in at least 14 more markets in the US, bringing the total to 25, within the next year. See the press release below for more details. California will get six all-electric school buses for three school districts as part of a demonstration program. The California Energy Commission awarded a grant of $1.4 million for the program to National Strategies LLC; this is in addition to a $2.2-million grant from the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The EV buses use vehicle-to-grid technology, allowing them to sell energy back to the grid when it is needed.
