Rare Caprice Coupe with low miles for the year. Repainted in original color last year. Four new coil springs and front shocks. New stabilizer links and center link, along with front end alignment. Car sits as good as the day it left the factory. It's ready for upgraded larger rims or keep the original old school look with the brand new Vintiques 15" wheels from Summit Racing, on Cooper tires, with excellent tread.

All manuals included along with service records from myself and the previous owner, a retired gentlemen, and previous owner of the car. He had new wires, plugs, fuel tank and fuel pump done shortly before I purchased the car. This car has been very well maintained and is reliable. The 305 V8 runs smooth and the choke works properly at startup. Transmission shifts excellent with no issues. :Cruise down the highway in style and enjoy the ultra smooth ride!

The interior has no rips or tears and shows minimal signs of wear. The top of the rear seats have a bit of fading from the sun as well as the driver's side front seat on the side facing the door.  The headliner does not sag. Carpet is clean and has almost no wear. No cracks in the dash, has some sun fading. Steering wheel is perfect, and all interior trim is in near mint condition. There is an aftermarket radio with a CD player and thumb drive.

Chrome is excellent. This coupe has the rare Landau vinyl roof which is in mint condition and shows no wear at all. No rust around the rear windows or roof line. Trunk has new gasket seal and there is no rust in the trunk.  Window gaskets are original and are in good condition. Car passed stringent PA state inspection last month.

There is a small spot of bubbling around the top of the driver's side wheel well. This is the result the body shop not sanding that area properly. (See photo) There is no bondo on the car, with the exception of this area and a small repair on the pass. quarter panel. There is some rust on the bottom inside panel of the driver's door which has been treated with POR 15, an undercarriage treatment. ( See photo.) The floor pans are rust free; the undercarriage is in good condition and was recently rust proofed. This car was driven as a daily driver over the years and some scaling is present on the upper and lower control arms and other underbody components.

AC is 112 and needs to be changed over to 134A to blow cold.

Contact me with any questions. This is a very nice car and I have given a very honest description of it. You will not be disappointed! Thanks.

Thu, Sep 18 2014

Chevrolet offers versions of its Express passenger van with B20 biodiesel and E85 capability.

A new report from UC Davis claims that a global expansion of public transit could save 1,700 megatons of carbon dioxide yearly and over $100 trillion by 2050. A "high-shift scenario" would be necessary, wherein governments invest in rail and clean buses, expand biking and walking infrastructure and shift focus away from projects that encourage car use. This shift to public transit would especially be important in the US, China and India. Read more in the press release below.

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery

Tue, Oct 28 2014

Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 – marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." – Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings – the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera – but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.

Chevy Silverado Midnight Edition coming to Chicago

Thu, Jan 22 2015

Between the GMC Canyon Nightfall Edition and Chevy Silverado Custom Sport, the truck divisions of General Motors had no lack of blacked-out custom pickups to showcase at the Detroit Auto Show this year. But now the General has announced one more. Called the Midnight Edition, for this special Silverado blacks out all the trim, including the grille, bumpers, headlamp bezels, tow hooks, fog lamps, side and beltline moldings, 19-inch wheels, bedliner and bowtie emblems. It's based on the Silverado 1500 with the Z71 package, so it also boasts an off-road suspension, locking rear differential, hill-descent control and trailering pack. While it was at it, Chevy has also thrown in rear park assist and power heated door mirrors. Buyers will be able to choose between double- or crew-cab models, but no more than 5,000 examples will be produced this year, each priced at a premium pegged between $1,595 and $1,995 (depending on the model). The Silverado Midnight edition debuts today at the National Automobile Dealers Association convention in San Francisco and will be showcased at the Chicago Auto Show next month, around the time that deliveries will commence. 2015 Silverado Midnight Edition is The New Black Monochrome appearance package to debut at NADA and Chicago Auto Show 2015-01-22 DETROIT – Truck fans know that nothing adds presence to a pickup like basic black. And Chevrolet is taking black to the next level with the Silverado Midnight special edition, on display starting today at the National Automobile Dealers Association Convention & Expo in San Francisco, and making its public debut February 14 at the Chicago Auto Show. Beginning with a black Silverado Z71, the Midnight special edition adds: - An all-black front end with body-colored grille, bumper, headlamp bezels, tow hooks and fog lamps; - Black side moldings and beltline moldings; - 18-inch black painted alloy wheels with Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac all-terrain tires; - Special Z71 badges on the doors; - A spray-in bedliner (black, of course); - And the finishing touches – black Chevrolet bowties front and rear. Like all 2015 Silverado 1500 Z71s, Midnight special editions include off-road suspension, a locking rear differential, Hill Descent Control and a trailering package. Midnight special editions also include rear park assist and heated, power-adjusted outside rear-view mirrors.
