I have five antique cars and need to downsize.  I have owned this car for a little over two years.  It has been very well maintained its entire life and has always been garaged.  It has had a recent transmission flush, oil change and Virginia state inspection.  This has always been a southern vehicle so no rust or rust repairs.  One small section of the woodgrain was repaired on the back fender with the correct material due to a tear in the vinyl.  It is  a slightly different shade, but not very noticable. Car had four new whitewall Hancook tires installed last year. These may have 1500 miles on them.  The original stereo was replaced with a modern CD player with aux. port.  The correct dash trim was used, no cutting.  An second power point was also installed.  The dash pad has no cracks or splits.  Everything works properly, including the cruise control, a/c and heat and power antenna, locks and windows.    The car has a  few chips and scratches, but nothing that will show up in a picture.  The paint is original and has great shine with no previous body work.  Interior is very nice with very minor wear.  The original GM floormats are in good shape.  The headliner droops in a few places.  The third seat has never been used and looks brand new.  I have the original owner's manual in the glovebox.  This car runs great and can be driven from Richmond to most anywhere.  I average 20 MPG on the highway with the overdrive transmission.

This is a great example of this style Caprice wagon and it is the last year it was produced.  Car is available for inspection in the Richmond Virginia area prior to bidding.  Please do not bid if you have not checked with your wife/husband, bank or anyone else that will prevent you from following through on the sale.  Thanks for looking.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
