1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS clone.
This is a very high end professionally built car. The car was completely torn down to the very last nut and bolt in 2009 and restored on a rotisserie. At this point, there is just over $73,000 in REAL cash money in this build. That doesn't included the cost of the car to start with. 454 that is basically a crate motor with under 10,000 miles on it. We estimate about 400 horsepower, give or take of course. MSD ignition system. Aluminum radiator. Brand new professionally built 700r4 transmission, with the additional electric lock out switch that acts as somewhat of an extra highway gear. 2300 Corvette stall converter that will allow the car to chirp the tires in three gears without even trying. The car really gets up and gets out of it's own way in a hurry...but is really well mannered on the highway. 12 bolt posi rear. Four wheel disc brakes Airpod Air Ride system all the way around, with three set positions and it is fully adjustable. The car will just about lay frame (it lays on the sway bar). See the pictures. There is well over $6,000 in just this system alone, maybe $7,000. All tubular A-arms and suspension parts. All the chrome and brightwork is new. All the lights, turn signals, etc. work. Brand new Summitomo tires with under 50 miles on them on beautiful 18" chrome 5 spoke rims. The tires were just under $1,000. The interior was all brand new at the build. If you are a taller driver, I will included a like new pair of Mercedes black electric bucket seats that the owner had in the car before. He was 6'3" tall and found that he needed the seat to be lower and go farther back. Those seats alone were $1,000 for the pair. The frame is completely boxed, and it was done by a professional chassis builder. The quality is unmatched. It was built to handle up to 1,000 horsepower. The entire bottom side of the car is painted with the same paint used on the top of the car. See the pictures: it's stunning. Headers with 3" exhaust with newer Magnaflow mufflers, and it runs all the way to the back. Dual electric fans. All billet pump and pulley system on the front of the motor. There IS an AC pump, but the car does NOT have AC. However, the shop that built the car will install it for you for $2,000, and my husband will facilitate that work for the buyer if he so chooses before the car is picked up. Dual electric fans. Even in the hot 90+ degree Florida summer days, the car never ever gets hot. Power steering. Power brakes. New CD stereo with remote. Unit is mounted and hidden in the glove box. Engine compartment is painted just like the top of the car as well. Stunning. See the pictures. Electric fuel pump. Car starts right up every time. Trunk mounted Red Top battery AND an manual power shut off in trunk as well. See the pictures. Runs on pump gas. Lots of new glass at build. At night, it's hard to tell there is glass. It's THAT clear. Paintwork was done by probably the best painter in all of South Florida. It is a late model Mercedes silver with a late model Mazda (I think) electric blue. The pinstripes between the two colors are tape, thus easily changed if the owner wants to. Doors open and close like a new car. So does the trunk. Car is rust free and excellent. Includes a custom made $200 California cover. Car is stored indoors right next to grandpas mini-van. ...and the list goes on and on and on. Known issues with car: 1) Speedometer does not work since the 700r4 trans install and we have not looked into why 2) Dash clock does not work. 3) The aftermarket horn could be louder. There may be and adjustment for that. 4) There is a tiny tiny bit of paint bubbling at the very rear corner of the passenger door. I saw it for the first time yesterday when it was up on a lift and I could see under the lip eye-to-eye. If I didn't mention, you would probably never see it. 5) Headers are a little banged up on the bottom due to forgetting to raise the air ride system up from the lowest setting before moving the car. This is a high-end, no excuses, pro touring car that you could easily fly in and drive home without worry. We are 20 minutes from RSW International Airport, and someone will pick you up if you would like to do that. If you are an out of state or out of the country buyer, I encourage you to come see it OR hire an inspector to look the car over if need be. There is nothing to hide, and we have no problem with a qualified professional inspection. If you need a recommendation, let me know and we will get you one. My husband has experience with transport and international exporting, and he would be happy to help with those details if the buyer needs (at buyers expense, of course). I do not own this car. I am just listing it for the owners. If you have any other questions, just email me your question and/or phone number and I will have them call you back with the answers. Paypal will NOT be accepted for this transaction. CASH or wire transfer is preferred. Here is a short video of the car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOXEy84kWGw |

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter
Thu, May 14 2015Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases
Wed, Nov 20 2019NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch
Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace
Fri, Oct 16 2015General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.
