1967 Chevy Chevelle Malibu Ss 502 Bbc Survivor on 2040-cars
Ozark, Missouri, United States
Up for auction is a 1967 Chevy Chevelle Malibu. The car is a survivor with an upgraded drivetrain. The car is in very good condition for its age has had one repaint in the late 70's/early 80's so there is nothing hiding under a fresh paintjob like. many older muscle cars that are for sale. The good news about a car with an older paintjob like this is that you know what you are getting because nothing will stay hidden under paint for 30+ years. All of the glass is good and all of the windows roll up and down like they should. The car has been very well cared for its entire life and was stored in a garage and was off the road from the early 80's until 2006. The car is turqoise with turqoise interior which is a very attractive color combo. The interior is all original and does show some wear from normal use but is in amazing conidition considereing its age. There are no rips or tears in the seats and the dash has not been cut or modified in any way. The car has a 502 BBC with a turbo 400 transmision and a 12 bolt rear. The 502 has Merlin heads, Comp Cams hydraulic roller camshaft, Crane roller rockers, Edelbrock Vic Jr. aluminun intake, Carb Shop 950cfm 4150 Carb, MSD billet distributor, and MSD 6al2 ignition. The engine has 9:5 to 1 compression and runs great on pump gas and is 100% streetable. The turbo 400 is freshly rebuilt and it has a new PTC performance torque converter. The 12 bolt rear has Moser axles, new Posi traction unit and 3.73 gears. The body is very straight. The floorpans are original and clean with no rust. The frame is clean with no rot, rust or flaking. The bottom of the doors are solid and rustfree as are the rockers. The wheelwell lips are in very condition and have no rust. The area around the windows are good and solid. The paint is over 30 years old and there is some lacquer checking in the paint and some areas where the paint is pulling away from the edges. The car has a Glastek fiberglass cowl induction hood. The hood bolts on just like factory and the hood accepts the factory latch. There are some minor rust areas in the normal areas and I included pictures of those areas. There is also some rust in the trunk floor where moisture was trapped under the trunk mat at some point in its life. The entire trunk floor will not need to be replaced but it will require some patches. The bottom side of the trunk floor is clean. The car will not need any panel replacement but will require some small repairs when it is repainted but the car still looks good and useable as is. The car has been very well cared for and is in far better than average condition for car of its age. Its getting harder to find Chevelles like this one that are not rusted out or abused. I will be happy to take pictures of any specific areas of the car for potential buyers and I do have a short walk around video that I can email or text anyone interested. I have the reserve set at a very reasonble price so bid to win. I will be happy to work with a buyer to help with shipping but the shipping costs will be the responsibility of the buyer. Thanks for taking a look at my auction and good luck!
On Jan-25-14 at 16:46:17 PST, seller added the following information: I did have someone send me a message and say that they thought the bottom of the front seat has been recovered at some point in its life. That is very possible and I wanted to post this up just to make I am as honest as possible about the car. I also had some questions about the trim tag on the firewall. The trim tag is original and still attached to the firewall and in good condition. I can get a pic of the trim tag if anyone is interested. Thanks

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt named KBB "Best Buy," slow BMW i3 sales in Germany
Wed, Nov 19 2014The Chevrolet Volt has been awarded Kelley Blue Book's Electric/Hybrid Car Best Buy for 2015. KBB cited the car's electric commuter capabilities, extended range, acceleration, design and overall value as reasons to place it above the Nissan Leaf, BMW i3 and Toyota Prius. It works well in the real world, and doesn't leave drivers with range anxiety. Plus, it's comfortable, and a fun car to drive, according to KBB. Read more at Kelley Blue Book. The BMW i3 is seeing slow sales in Germany. BMW has sold about half the number of i3s it expected in its home country, with about 1,900 sold in the first nine months. BMW projected sales of 5,000 to 6,000 in the first year. BMW partly blames long shipping times for the slow sales, and the company is offering incentives in hopes of getting more people to adopt the electric car. In the US, BMW sold more than 1,000 units each month between August and October. Read more at Green Car Reports. Audi is pursuing new carbon-neutral synthetic fuels - or e-fuels - such as Audi e-diesel. Audi's newest project uses electrolysis of water to create hydrogen, which it then reacts with CO2 extracted from the air. The result is a liquid - called Blue Crude - full of energy from hydrocarbon compounds. The Blue Crude can then be converted into a sulfur-free synthetic diesel called e-diesel. This e-diesel can be used as a drop-in fuel, blended into fossil diesel for a more renewable fuel. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Uber is partnering with Spotify to allow passengers to choose what music they listen to during their ride. Users will be able to choose their own playlist that will be ready and playing for them when they are picked up. It offers a more personalized experience from the ride-hailing service, which, according to Uber CEO Travis Kalanick, is "nirvana" for music lovers. Paying Spotify users will be able to use the feature initially in London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Nashville, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Stockholm, Sydney and Toronto.

Weekly Recap: Geneva's splendor reflects growing demand for ultra-luxury cars
Sat, Mar 7 2015Geneva is one of the most glittering auto shows in the world, but the list of high-powered and bespoke luxury cars was decadent this year even by the rich standards of the Swiss exhibition. It's great for enthusiasts to revel in the flame-throwing Aston Martin Vulcan, the racing-inspired elegance of the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 concept and the insane performance of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, but there's a reason for all of this opulence: the luxury market is big business. And it's growing. IHS Automotive forecasts that so-called ultra-premium sales will nearly triple this decade from 123,000 to 353,000 units around the world. The estimate includes brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce, but doesn't count BMW, Mercedes and Audi, which offer less expensive models in addition to their high-end flagships. Though IHS includes Porsche and its relatively large volume in the study, the ultra-premium segment is still set grow at about the same rate, even without the German automaker's figures. So what is propelling all of this growth in the most expensive segment of the auto industry? Put simply, there's more rich people. IHS Automotive principal analyst Tim Urquhart pointed to economic expansion in China, market recovery in the United States and a surge in the lucrative technology sector as contributing factors. This dovetails with a research report by UK-based Oxfam, an international relief organization, which found the world's richest one-percent owned 48 percent of global wealth in 2014, and it's expected to increase to more than 50 percent by 2016. View 17 Photos Carmakers are moving quickly to capitalize with new products, expanding their portfolios with low-volume speedsters like the 800-hp V12 Vulcan at Geneva, and plans to enter new segments, like Rolls-Royce's strategy to make an SUV. "Ultra-premium carmakers are looking to explore ways of growing their product offerings, and thus their bottom lines, in this most potentially profitable of segments," Urquhart wrote in a report on the Geneva show. In a nutshell, there are more choices for people with more money. It's a good time to have expensive taste. Other News & Notes 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata production launches It won't be long now. The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata arrives later this year, and it's officially in production. Mazda announced this week that the roadster began rolling off the assembly line at its Ujina factory in Hiroshima, Japan.
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 concept suggests a diesel off-road future
Thu, Nov 20 2014"It takes the Colorado to a whole new place." – Mark Reuss The Chevrolet Colorado looks set to gain a more capable off-road version, with the company previewing a potential design direction with a ruggedized concept Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Called the Colorado ZR2, the concept brings back the name used on off-road-tuned S-10 and Blazer models in the 1990s and 2000s. The ZR2 has a track that's four inches wider than the Colorado Z71, which is currently the line's most capable off-roader. The ZR2 is fitted with a new grille, power-dome hood, custom wheel flares and off-road-style fascia that reduces overhang and has flip-out aluminum tow hooks. It's all slathered in an outdoorsy hue dubbed Cyprus Green. The are electronic locking front and rear differentials, skid plates and mono-tube coilover shock absorbers. It all rolls (or crawls) on 275/65R18 off-road tires wrapped around custom 18-inch aluminum wheels. There's also a spare tire assembly mounted in the bed, which has a spray-in liner and 48-inch lift jack should things go afoul on the trail. "It takes the Colorado to a whole new place," Mark Reuss, General Motors executive vice president of global product development, said at the reveal. Power comes from the 2.8-liter Duramax diesel engine making 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. This engine will arrive later in the year in the production Colorado. While the ZR2 remains only a concept, it suggests a new path for the Colorado – one we hope Chevy decides to take. Chevrolet Introduces Colorado ZR2 Concept Aggressively styled, more capable and driven by new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine LOS ANGELES – Chevrolet today introduced the Colorado ZR2 concept – a vision of how Chevrolet could take the all-new midsize truck's off-road capability to the next level. It also showcases the new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine that will arrive in the Colorado lineup later next year. The aggressively styled concept builds on the capabilities of the production Colorado Z71 and advances the legacy of Chevrolet's previous ZR2 production models. "From the bold stance to the trail-ready special equipment, the Colorado ZR2 is all about the fun of driving where the pavement ends – and doing it in characteristic Chevy style," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
