I recently purchased this vehicle on a whim believing I could finish it up in no time and have a cool ride. The previous owner spent 2 years getting it to the point that it could be driven, so I was sure it would be no big deal to complete the process. As a 70 year old, you think I would know better! Therefore, it is being offered for sale to someone motivated to follow it through to the finish.. There are many great things to say about the car and I`ll cover those first. The sheet metal is really solid. He took it down to the metal, fixed very few pinholes of rust on the fender dog legs, then sprayed it. When I drove it home, I took a magnet and went over the entire outside and found those lower fender areas the only places the magnet would not hold. There has been a repair to the passenger side rear floorboard, but the rest of the inside and the trunk floor is solid. All in all, this body is in great shape for a 47 year old car. I believe the steel hood is from an SS 396, but I don`t know that for a fact. Regarding the engine, he told me it was a 350. I looked for the stamped code on the passenger side cylinder head pad and found nothing. I then recalled seeing that missing only when a block has been decked, and I believe that was done here. After further inspection, I found two decals on the passenger side of the block indicating it was a Four Star rebuild from Precision Machine in Jacksonville, Fl. It also had a production code, so I`m hoping they can research the number and give me the engine information. I will add that to the description if I am successful. The transmission, I believe, is a Tremac T5 and shifts out fine. I believe the clutch is heavy duty. The rear end appears to be the stock 10 bolt. The wheels are 15" Rally with 215/60/R15 front, and 235/50/R15 rear. All the tires look great. By the way, I asked the previous owner why, after putting so much time and effort into the car, he was selling it. He explained that he had found a tractor he wanted, but had to keep it in the garage, so the car had to go. The car has a new front bumper, new radiator, new fuel tank, new exhaust pipes and mufflers, new door mirrors, new front windshield, and power disc brakes (drum rear). Now, the items needed. It has no headliner, is missing the stock front seats (he bolted some black buckets with tracks out of a VW, I think). There are only a couple of moldings for the windshield and back glass included. It is missing the heater control and radio. It needs carpet, a dash pad (cracked), and the rear parcel shelf cover. I have done my best to describe this car as it sits and apologize in advance if I have overlooked any important details. I feel I`ve put a very reasonable reserve on the car and know that it has the potential of being a great driver once completed.

Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump
Mon, 11 Feb 2013To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
Chevrolet considering midsize crossover to slot between Traverse and Equinox
Mon, Jan 9 2017Crossovers are the new hotness, and automakers are looking to cash in by offering a size and shape for every customer. With Chevrolet's debut of the new 2018 Traverse in Detroit, which grew ever so slightly compared to the first-generation model, there is now a midsize-crossover-sized hole between the three-row Traverse and the compact Equinox. When asked about that obvious space, a Chevrolet spokesperson told us the company is looking into the possibility of expanding its crossover lineup. It should be a relatively simple thing to do, since all it would take is reskinning and rechristening the GMC Acadia with a bow tie, and we all know how much GM loves platform sharing. Although they're now different sizes, the new Acadia and Traverse still use the same platform; the Acadia is now on a short-wheelbase version of the C1XX while the Traverse uses long-wheelbase C1XX parts. A short-wheelbase Chevy built on the C1XX likely would be differentiated visually from both the Acadia and the larger Traverse. It may seem like flooding the lineup with more and more models would cannibalize sales of existing ones, but Chevrolet said it would rather have customers stay within the brand rather than going to another automaker. There have been whispers that some form of the Blazer name (possibly TrailBlazer) may make a return on a midsizer, but if it does don't expect an old-school body-on-frame SUV like the old one. In the end, if Chevy builds it, customers will come. Related Video:
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
