1972 Chevelle Convertible. Two owner car. Original V-8 350(fully rebuilt by 2nd owner in 2008 who was a certified GM mechanic at RAMP Chevrolet for 30 years before passing). The only modifications were HEI ignition conversion(no more points to mess with), polished aluminum intake, and headers. The car was to be stripped and repainted after the motor rebuild was completed in 2008(started with pass fender and stopped see pic). The engine turns freely and I am confident it will run and drive fine. I was told by my  mechanic not to start the car without removing the old gas....I was told by others to just start the car.......I will be cautious and NOT start the car. I do know it needs a new battery. The car has been in dry storage in the garage since to 2008 to present day. The car has a new black power top with glass rear window, the inner liner of the top is perfect and the frame skeleton is clean(may have been restored). The car has tinted windows from factory and all glass is clean. The pinch molding around the rear deck is spotless and excellent shape, the A-pillar front windshield moldings are spotless and shine as new, the convertible top bow is in mint condition with original leather wrapping intact(no rust, no bubbles..... very clean). The car has all its original panels. The floors, frame and trunk pan are original and solid(see pics).The  original color combo from factory on cowl tag which reads paint code 75 cranberry red is very desirable with the black interior and top. As you can see from the pics the pass fender was taken down to metal and headlight extensions with grill were removed(assuming this was where the resto was started and stopped by the mechanic who was in the process of restoring the exterior of car before he passed). All the parts mentioned are included. The front bumper is missing. I may be able to locate it and if I do It will be included...if the widow who sold me the car cant find it you can locate one on ebay for $75 or brand new repro for $150 in mint ready to use shape(see NPD National Parts Depot). This is a nice solid car that can be used as is or finished to whatever level your wife will let you...lol. The car has never been hit. My mechanic looked over the car and had nothing bad to say. I am not asking a lot for the car.Feel free to call with offers if you are serious. Its offered for sale in my local area and I may end  auction early. All are welcome to inspect car before auction end. The car is sold in used as is condition. All international bidders welcome. I will assist and store car in garage until pick up, but transport payment and planning are the buyers responsibility. I will gladly assist with shipper contact if need. I am retired Police Officer....so I have some time on my hand and glad to help if I can. If the car does not sell I will put a bumper on the car and enjoy it this summer. I have a clear title/NY reg ready to transfer to new owner Please feel free to call me with any questions. 631-943-9107 Thank you. First fair offer gets the car.

Chevy up to old EVs-equal-range-anxiety tricks in new Volt Olympics ad

Fri, Feb 14 2014

General Motors is at it again with a new Chevrolet Volt TV commercial. Viewers of the Winter Olymics (at least in some markets) recently saw a TV ad in between the skating and the skiing that made no mention of the environmental benefits or freedom from the power of Big Oil that electric vehicles provide. No, this one was based on pure survival instinct. In the video, a father is driving down a highway, perhaps through the Mojave Desert. His young son is sitting in the Volt's backseat and asks what happens when the EV's battery runs out. "We'll have to cross that burning desert with snakes and cactus until we make it back to civilization," the dad tells his son as they pass the skeleton of a fallen bull. The fine print makes it clear that the actual maximum range is 342 miles. But there is hope. The father tells his son, with a beaming smile on his face, that the gas generator has kicked in and they're going to make it through the desert. As they wend their way to the horizon, a voice over says that Volt drivers who charge up regularly are making it 900 miles between fill ups. The fine print makes it clear that the actual official maximum range before you need to either plug in or fill up is 342 miles. This theme that emphasized range anxiety has been utilized by GM since the extended range Volt was launched in late 2010, despite the fact that Chevrolet now offers an all-electric vehicle in the Spark EV. Volt fans are praising the commercial, called The New Freedom, on the GM-Volt forum and you can see for yourself below. This content is hosted by a third party.

GM adds 1,200 jobs at Detroit-Hamtramck plant

Thu, Oct 22 2015

General Motors is making a big move at its Hamtramck, MI, factory, announcing it will add a second shift and hire over 1,200 workers within the next several months. It's expected that by early 2016, the factory will employ over 2,800 workers to build the Chevrolet Volt, Impala, Malibu, Cadillac ELR, and by early next year, the new CT6. According to GM Hamtramck spokesperson Courtney Zemke, 40 of the 1,200 positions are for salaried employees, while the remainder will be hourly positions. As for where these employees will go, positions are being made available across the factory, so GM isn't focusing on any particular area for its new hires. It's a similar story behind the hiring surge itself. GM said in its press release that the "second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand," a position Zemke reiterated. It's a matter of demand across the plant's portfolio, rather than any one particular product seriously outstripping supply. Naturally, the United Auto Workers is happy with the move. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest said in the attached release. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." Hiring is going on now, with the second shift slated to get underway in early 2016. GM's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly to Add Second Shift and More Than 1,200 Jobs Plant will nearly double its workforce by early 2016 2015-10-22 DETROIT – General Motors is nearly doubling its workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly by adding a second shift and more than 1,200 hourly and salaried jobs. The addition of a second shift will increase the plant's workforce to approximately 2,800 people when hiring is completed. The second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand for the five cars produced at Detroit-Hamtramck. "This is the result of the award-winning vehicles Detroit-Hamtramck produces and the confidence GM has in our team to build world-class quality for our customers," said Plant Manager Gary West. Second shift hiring is underway, and the shift is scheduled to begin operations in early 2016. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," said UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." The 4.1 million-square-foot Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly opened in 1985. GM has invested $1 billion in the plant over the last six years, making it one of the company's most-agile manufacturing facilities in North America.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.
