Here is an absolutely SPECTACULAR and incredible car! This is a 1972 Chevrolet Caprice 4 door sedan with only 53,000 ORIGINAL MILES! In my opinion, it would actually pass for half that many (25k to 30k)! This Original Survivor is an unbelievable time capsule! I acquired it from a family member of the original owner. This family member had owned it for 32 years! Car has always been pampered, garaged, and never driven in snow or ice. All original body panels, floors, etc. No patch panels, and not rusted out or bondoed. Body is nice and straight. Not full of door dings or "parking lot rash". Ready to drive or take to cruise ins or shows. Very striking in Sequoia Green with black deluxe cloth interior, this Caprice is equipped as follows: 1. 400 Cubic Inch V8 engine 2. 3 speed automatic transmission. 3. Power steering and power disc brakes 4. AM radio 5. Deluxe cloth and vinyl interior group and appearance group 6 Black Landau vinyl top 7. Exterior appearance group including bumper guards, door edge guards, and factory fender skirts 8. Air Conditioning (new compressor, and changed over to newer type refrigerant) This beautiful Caprice is an un-restored original Survivor and looks great! Nice and shiny, not faded or oxidized. Chrome, emblems, and bright work are also bright and crisp. This is one of the most original cars I have seen in awhile. It has never been detailed or cleaned up under the hood or in the trunk! Still looks great! Underside of car is also nice and clean. The interior is immaculate and original. No cracks in dash or door panels. Headliner and cloth on seats looks great! As you would imagine, this car hits the road just great! The engine and transmission are smooth and powerful. Cruises effortlessly at highway speeds, with no problems or issues that I am aware of. Only things that don't work are the clock and the AM radio. Radio seems to come on, but I believe the speaker is blown. I drove it on a 225 mile trip recently with no problems at all. I would not be afraid to drive anywhere! I have been getting between 14 and 17 MPG on Regular 87 Octane unleaded gasoline. Car has 4 white wall radial tires with excellent tread. Original spare is in trunk. Also original mat and cardboard insert pieces. The best way I can describe this car is to imagine you have a time machine that could transport you back to late 1974 or early 1975. It is like going to your Chevy dealer back then and buying a 2 or 3 year old well cared for car off the front line of his used car department! Yes, before you moan and groan that it is a 4 door, I wish it was a 2 door too! However, I would much rather have a virgin, un-molested, honest 4 door than a thrown together 2 door for much more money that is full of rust and bondo! Great car for Survivor class at car shows or vintage car tours. Remember, they are only original once! Please call me with questions: Landline 518-604-4050 Cell: 704-661-1326 NOTE: I am at my summer home in the mountains of upstate New York. Cell service can be spotty up here. Best to call both and leave messages at both. Or, feel free to message me through Ebay with your phone number, and I will be happy to call you back. Now for the rules: IMPORTANT: Please read and understand these rules BEFORE bidding. They are part of the listing terms and contract you are agreeing to when you bid. Please DO NOT bid, then try to change them later. That's not how it works. If you have questions, please ask and get answers BEFORE you bid. If you don't intend to abide by the rules, please look elsewhere. 1. Your bid is a contract! If you are the successful bidder, you are expected to pay! Please have all contingencies handled and your money in place BEFORE you bid! No retractions will be allowed, so be sure BEFORE you bid! 2. A NON-REFUNDABLE $1000 partial payment is due within 48 hours of auction's conclusion. This can be by bank wire transfer or cashiers check. Pay Pal is NOT acceptable for this. 3. Balance is due within 7 days of auction's close. This can be by bank wire transfer, cashiers check or cash in person. If you are paying balance upon pickup of car, it must be cash in person. 4. Car and title will not leave here until paid in full with cleared funds. If you are paying with ANY kind of check, it must clear MY bank before car or title will be released. No exceptions! 5. Car is sold strictly as-is at my premises with no guarantee or warranty of any kind. 6. Transportation is the buyer's responsibility. I will try to reasonably help and accommodate you any way I can, but it is still YOUR responsibility. 7. If you cannot pick up car immediately, that is fine, it can be left here for a reasonable period. However, it still must be paid for within the 7 days, and you should secure insurance as I cannot be responsible for loss or damage due to circumstances beyond my control or act of God. 9. Car is advertised locally for sale. If I find a buyer through that venue, I reserve the right to end auction early. Please call me at 704-661-1326 Cell or 518-604-4050 Landline with any further questions about this. Again, best to call both and leave messages at both, or send me a message through Ebay messaging. 10. If you have been an Ebay member for less than a year and/or have less than 10 feedbacks, and/or have less than a 95% rating, you MUST contact me BEFORE you bid. Failure to do this may result in my cancelling your bid and blocking you from bidding on my items. I understand that new members can be great customers, but I must talk to you first. Thanks a lot. I am sorry for all the rules, but it seems that 5% of difficult people spoil it for the 95% who are good. Thanks very much for l NO RESERVE! NO RESERVE! NO RESERVE! ABOUT ME: I have been a collector and enthusiast of Postwar American cars for nearly 40 years! I maintain a "rotating collection" of 6 to 10 such vehicles. Sometimes I sell one out of the collection to make way for a new arrival. I favor un-restored original "Survivor" cars from the late 1950s to mid 1970s. |

Chevy Volt outsells Nissan Leaf for first time since October 2013
Mon, Aug 3 2015It's been a rough summer so far for both the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf, the first two plug-in vehicles from major automakers that ushered in the modern plug-in era. In June 2015, sales were down from their 2014 levels. The Leaf was down 11.6 percent and the Volt was down 31.1 percent. For July 2015, things didn't get much better. July 2015's Volt sales of 1,313 were down 35 percent from July 2014 and are down 34.8 percent for the year-to-date. Nissan, on the other hand moved only 1,174 Leafs last month, down 61.1 percent. So far this year, Leaf sales are down 30.2 percent. What's interesting with this steep decline in Leaf sales is that allowed the Volt to outsell the Leaf for the first time since October 2013. Back then, the Volt sold 2,022 compared to the Leaf's 2,002 units. So far, Nissan has sold 83,312 Leafs in the US since the EV went on sale in late 2010. Chevy has sold 80,292 Volts. Even though Tesla doesn't release monthly sales figures, there's a good chance that the pricey Model S was once again the best-selling EV in the US in July, as it was in the first three months of 2015. At that time, Tesla delivered an average of just under 2,000 Model S EVs a month. We might get some insight into more recent numbers during the quarterly investor call on Wednesday. As we've said before, the low sales for the aging plug-ins can be explained by the fact that both the Leaf and the Volt are due for upgrades. The second-gen Volt is coming in a few months. Nissan is being cagey about when the updated Leaf will arrive, but given these latest sales figures, we wouldn't be surprised if the undisclosed timetable gets move up somehow.

New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios.

We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track.

GM recalls half-million full-size SUVs to address seatbelt issue
Tue, Aug 16 2022GM is recalling its redesigned full-size SUV models to address improperly riveted mounts securing the third-row seatbelts that may fail in the event of an accident. The population includes the 2021-2022 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2021-2022 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, and 2021-2022 model year GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, for a total of 484,155 vehicles. "Operators at the supplier’s manufacturing plant may have not properly followed manufacturing processes and inadvertently missed the rivet forming operation," GM said in its defect report to NHTSA. "In certain of these vehicles, the rivet that retains the buckle to the mounting bracket in the left or right side third-row seatbelt buckle assembly may not have been properly formed during the manufacturing process. If the third-row seatbelt assembly is not properly riveted, it may not properly restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury." Fortunately, the fix is relatively simple. GM service technicians will inspect the rivets on the rear seatbelt buckle assemblies and replace the entire unit if the rivets are not to spec. Dealer notifications have already been distributed; owners should receive notice start in September. Related video: Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Ownership Safety SUV
