1970 Chevrolet Malibu Chevelle. 91,xxx ORIGINAL MILES. Starts, runs, and drives like a brand new car...and NO I am not exaggerating. Almost EVERYTHING works as it should from the factory. All exterior lights, interior lights, original door buzzer(when key is in ignition), original gauges, dummy lights, etc...Even the original A/C blows ICE COLD!! The ONLY thing that I have found that does not work is the original clock in the dash and original radio...however I would bet that it is only a blow fuse or something. I recently took this car in on trade. I was told this is a complete matching number and rare 70' Chevelle. The only thing that appears to not be original is the wheels/tires and exhaust. Even the interior is as close to MINT and original as you will probably find. I have cruised it a few hundred miles around town and on the interstate with the cold A/C blowing. My wife and daughter love cruising it with me, but we could use the money out of it. I will describe in detail everything that I know about this car, but YOU might know more about this vehicle by looking at the pics than we do..so please look at ALL pictures and videos. I have provided 150+ detailed pictures along with video clips. I have the clean and clear title in hand and ready for a new owner. I believe the reserve price LOW, so put your bid in and bid to buy!! Or of course make a SERIOUS offer. Hopefully with the hours I have invested in taking pictures and making this auction I have answered all questions, but if not, feel free to call: 513-464-TEN 20. Please read everything and view all of the pics/videos prior to calling.

BODY
The original paint looks to either have been touched up or maybe totally repainted 1 time. All of the body lines in between each panel has perfect 1970 factory gaps and looks to have never been taken apart. The hood, both doors, and the trunk open and close with that tight clicking sound that you would expect from an original and solid 70' Chevelle. The underside of both door lips are amazingly clean and not rusty! All of the glass appears to be original and scratch/crack free. When looking down the sides and top of the panels, they look razor straight..however the passenger fender has a dent and the passenger door has a small line dent right below the door handle. Both fenders have rust issues right behind the front wheels. And both quarter panels are starting to rust a little too. All of the frame and floorpans underneath this car appear to be original and extremely SOLID. The only place undercarriage place that I found to have rust is the trunk pan. The trunk pan is solid and even has some of its deteriating 1970 trunk mat still in place, but it is starting to rot/rust as seen in the "interior" category pictures below. Both original chrome bumpers are "driver quality", but not perfect as seen in the pics. I would love to restore it myself and keep it, but like I said I could use the money out of it now. I would personally keep it as original as I could...I would put new fenders on it, do a little bit of bodywork, and repaint it the same factory color...and I would put a new vinyl top and a set of 18" wheels or something on it. I will let the pictures and videos do most of the talking about the body. Cosmetically, it is very solid for being original, but could use restored if someone wanted to restore it!!

ENGINE & DRIVETRANE
This 70' has its original drivetrane. It has a V8-350 mated to an automatic transmission. The engine starts right up everytime and runs amazing. It is very quiet with no exhaust leaks. It looks to have newer dual flowmaster exhaust. All of the sound exits the rear of the car. This Chevelle has power steering and power brakes that works excellent and makes it a pleasure to cruise. The transmission shifts into every single gear perfect. The brakes stop this car hard and straight. It has dual exhaust and there is no exhaust leaks. All of the V8 sound exits the rear.The suspension is surprisingly very comfortable and is an EXTREMELY smooth ride when hitting bumps. The power steering makes the car very easy to drive. You can drive it with 1 finger on the wheel. The steering feels VERY tight and newer which is surprising for being so old. This car runs, shifts, feels, drives, and sounds ALOT better than it currently looks. I do not have the original wheels, what you see is what you get. The rear tires rub a little when driving hitting bumps if you YOU or your passenger weigh more than 250lbs or so...I am exactly 200lbs and with my wife and daughter with me, they almost NEVER rub. It starts right up, idles and revs flawlessly. It cruises down the road amazingly and is an absolute blast to drive!! The only thing I can nitpick about the drivetrane, is that the belt squeeks when it is first started up and cold...but only squeeks one time and stops. There is no noticable leaks, and this car does not mark its spot when parked. All of the fluids(anifreeze, oil, tranny etc..) look good and clean. The only thing you need to worry about when cruising this car, is the attention that it draws.....I would personally feel very comfortable driving this cross country right now.

INTERIOR
The interior is jawdropping...It is like a time machine. The carpet, door panels, seats, dash, and headliner is probably as close to MINT as you will probably find on a 44YR old vehicle. The original door buzzer(when key is in igntion) works! The dome light comes on when opening either door. The windshield wipers work great. The original heater & A/C controls work great and the original A/C blows ice cold which is unbelievable. All of the original lights in the dash and gauge cluster work...even the "bright" lights light comes on when turning them on. The original speedometer works and seems to be pretty accurate! All 4 windows roll up and down smoothly. The ONLY 2 things that I have found that does not work is the original clock in the gauge cluster and the radio, however I would bet that it is probably just a fuse or something. The rear package tray(above/behind the rear seat) has been sun baked over the years and needs replaced. The trunk has a spare wheel and original jack/equipment still intact. I have provided A LOT of detailed pictures below. Keep scrolling through all of the pictures and please view them all. I know there is an overwhelming amount of them, but I want to showcase how cool this 1970 SURVIVOR Chevelle is...

Fullsize GM SUVs have a problem that's making owners sick

Thu, Dec 31 2015

Some fullsize SUV owners are getting sick, thanks to a buffeting and vibration problem in 2015 model year examples of the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, Cadillac Escalade, and GMC Yukon. According to owners' complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue can vary from an annoying vibration inside the cabin to an experience so severe that it leads to dizziness and headaches. General Motors is aware of the complaints, but the fix isn't so simple. According to spokesperson Tom Wilkinson to Autoblog, the company "has been tracking this issue for a while." The problem has a fairly low incidence rate, but when it does occur the issue can be "uncomfortable and annoying for owners." There's no precise cause for the issue, Wilkinson claims, and in some cases, simply balancing the tires or changing the door seals can make it go away. However, not all of the fixes are so simple. AutoGuide dug deep into the problem and discovered a GM preliminary information bulletin that advised dealers to remove the headliner and to check the roof's bonds to the bows that go across the vehicle. However, that document included a note that the solution might not entirely eliminate things. According to AutoGuide, adding Dynamat insulation to the roof sometimes helped the problem. A GM spokesperson also told AutoGuide the company fixed the problem at the end of the 2015 model year, and didn't go into any more detail. This roof issue seems linked to some of the worst droning in these SUVs. According to one complaint from a 2015 Suburban owner to NHTSA: "Roof will not remain attached to the roof bows. This causes the buffeting similar to a window being down when all are up. The results span from annoying to painful." A 2015 Yukon owner claims to have another alleged cause for the problem in a NHTSA complaint from February 2015. This person brought their SUV to the dealer seven times over the course of four weeks for vibrations. The dealer replaced the driveshaft, suspension components, and more, but nothing worked. According to an engineer to the service adviser: "In an effort to prevent roll overs, they designed the frame and body mounts too stiff. There are 40 engineers working on issues, they have no solutions that work across the board." Wilkinson told Autoblog that GM is working with customers on an individual basis to rectify things. Since these are newer vehicles, dealers should also fix the problem under warranty.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.
