1969 CHEVELLE CONVERTIBLE PROJECT

This is a 1969 Chevelle Convertible that I purchased around 8 years from Arizonia. I completely restored the car into a Resto-Mod. Car was stripped down to complete metal and painted LeMans Blue, I had a custom made Stay Fast top with matching well-liner, Bumpers rechromed, all new weatherstripping, I installed a Covan intrustment dash with UltraLite Gauges, all new Saddlewood interior that was custom made by PUI, 18in Coys on the front and 20in Coys on the rear with new tires, new exhaust, Purchased a Vintage Air that was never installed, all new moldings, Car has Power Windows, Power Steering, Tilt, Power Top, Power Disc Brakes, New Be Cool Aluminum Radiator. New Carpet, New Windshield. I installed a new 468 with a 700R, Car ran great and my wife drove it for around 1000 miles and quit driving it beause she had hurt her back, so we sat the car up untill last year when I decided to pull the 468 and 700R out. I then purchased a LS3 with a 6L80 to do a new drivetrain swap. I took the car completely apart, then it went to the bodyshop where the transmission tunnel was cut out because of the large transmission, a donor G8 was located and the transmission tunnel was installed, turned out really nice that I decided to keep the G8 console so I could have rear air, A new GM wiring harness was bought and modified to control the 6L80 trans, a new FI Gas tank with the pump in it, new fuel line that hasnt been installed. after all the mock up was done the car was repainted again to the same LeMans Blue, Paint is super nice. Motor and transmission is sitting in car along with the wiring harness, Car doesnt need much to be back complete. I bought some 2006 GTO Power Seats that are red and need to be recovered in the Sandlewood to match the interior, the seats have had brackets made so they will sit in there correctly. The paint job and transmission tunnel cost close to 7500 to do and the drivetrain and harness was another 11000.

I am not interested in any trades. This is a very nice car that will be fun when completed. Car is just needs to be put back together.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction at anytime due to reasonable offers and car is for sale locally.

The Camaro is for sale as well

Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

2019 Chicago Auto Show photo gallery: All of the grilles

Do you like trucks? How about grilles? Like really big, shiny, chromey, in-your-face, could-be-made-by-Broil-King grilles? Well, the Chicago Auto Show is the place to be. Traditionally known as the truck show of the annual auto show circuit (at least those covered by national media), Chicago has what seems like a small national park's worth of acreage devoted to both consumer and commercial trucks. From humble extended cab Ford Rangers to a mammoth F-650 with cherry picker sprouting from its aft quarters, there's bound to be a truck for everything. And they all have grilles. So above is our gallery devoted to them, because hell, why not? Should you want to know about the trucks attached to those grilles, check out our coverage below.
