this is an original bucket seat with console car. I will list the trim tag info when I can so
anyone can verify that. This car
does have Air Conditioning for anyone that wants to get it up and working. I
see it’s missing some pieces. This car has
an older restoration going back about 28 years or so. I bought this car last year from a gentleman
who has had the car since about 1985,
just about 30 years ago. I am
looking to put the funds in another place so someone is going to win a nice old
chevy that with some work will be very nice. This car is
what I call a driving project. You can do as you wish to it as you go. The car will
need a radio. It doesn’t look like the holes have been altered. The dash
pad has a crack. The glove box doesn’t like to stay closed. And the emergency brake and
horn are inop. The heater blower does work but the levers are stif. It has a
real nice looking inside. Some accelerator hesitation mostly when cold,
possibly the choke. The parking lights
work as well as the headlights, tail lights, wipers and signals. I also see
last week when I took it around the block it has some brake pulsation. The brakes
do work ok as I had some brake work done last year. The car
looks to have just about all it’s original sheet metal. The paint still has a nice shine but does
have some flaws but nothing major. For perfection you may want to paint it. The
body underneath is just about as solid as I’ve seen in years.(as pictured) I was
told it had a replacement trunk floor put in it years ago. I see one the rear body mounts look very nice
and solid with one loose bolt.That still looks nice. The chrome on the car especially the bumpers
still has a real nice high shine and
look very decent. It has a real nice sounding V8 that I believe is a 327. Some numbers I found on the motor are T0820GF for those who may want to verify that. It also has a dual exhaust that isn't real old and sounds really sweet. The transmission is a powerglide that shifts good.
The mileage reads 52,176 which I can only assume has been over with it's age. All in all this will make a real nice toy for someone.
It's not often you can find an old Malibu that hasn't been owned by a number of gearheads that have pounded it to death. This one can be dialed in just the way you want it and be a nice nice 48 year old collector car !! NO RESERVE
AUCTION !! Full payment
can be made in a check but will take I’m told by my bank about 10 working days
to fully clear the banking system so the car will be held along with the
paperwork until fully cleared. If paid in cash in person or a bank to bank wire
there would be no hold. The vehicle is
sold as is cond. Connecticut uses the
registration and title as one. Ownership
transfer is done on the reverse side in the buyers section. A bill of sale will also come with it. Any
questions please let me know. thanks On Apr-14-14 at 08:16:53 PDT, seller added the following information: FOR THOSE WHO ASKED THE TRIM TAG LOOKS TO READ

I have been under the car to look and the pans look original and look very solid. unless I missed something I don't see any bad areas. Feel free to come and inspect the car yourself or send an inspection co. if that's easier. thanks On Apr-16-14 at 11:01:17 PDT, seller added the following information: THANKS FOR THE HUGE RESPONSE. I HAVE HAD A FEW QUESTIONS ASKING ABOUT THE PAINT. AS I WROTE THE PAINT IS PROBABLY 25 YEARS OR SO OLD. IT DOES STILL HAVE A REAL NICE SHINE BUT DOES HAVE SOME FLAWS FROM AGE HERE AND THERE. BUT FOR THE MOST PART STILL SHOWS VERY NICE. THE BODY ALSO SHOWS PRETTY STRAIGHT. IT'S NOT A REAL WAVY CAR LIKE SOME. THANKS On Apr-19-14 at 19:37:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Thanks to all the people I've spoken to and those who took the time to look at the car. I have had some very fair offers but think at this point since it's a no reserve auction I should let it run to the end out of fairness. Thanks |

Recharge Wrap-up: NEDC's NOx problems, autonomous Chevy Volts
Mon, Dec 7 2015The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) found a significant difference in NOx emissions in Euro 6 diesel cars in NEDC and WLTC testing. While 88 percent of the cars tested met emissions standards for NEDC, NOx emissions averaged five times higher under WLTC, with only 27 percent of vehicles under the limit. WLTC is considered to be a more realistic driving cycle, using hot starts and factoring a higher top speed as well as harder and more frequent accelerations than the NEDC. Read more at Green Car Congress.GM Canada will build a fleet of autonomous 2017 Chevrolet Volts. The self-driving Volts will be deployed for testing at GM's Warren, Michigan Technical Center. Employees will be able to use a carsharing app to reserve a car, which will then drive itself to the set destination. The project will allow GM to collect important data and experience to help the company more quickly develop autonomous driving technology. Read in a press release more from GM Canada, or at Green Car Congress.Carwatt is showing an electric Renault Trafic powered by second-life batteries at the COP21 environmental summit in Paris. The lithium-ion batteries used to power the EV were recycled from other Renault EVs. With the electric Trafic, Carwatt – a company that converts vehicles to use electric power – aims to demonstrate the "circular economy" of batteries, which can provide more value through a longer lifecycle. Read more in the press release below. Carwatt presents a unique automotive application for second-life batteries from electric vehicles. On the sidelines of the COP21 summit, in the Solutions Gallery running from 2 to 9 December 2015 in Le Bourget near Paris, Carwatt and its partners —Renault, Paris City Council, BPI France, the Ales Ecole des Mines Engineering School, and the Bobigny Business Campus — are showing a very special electric Renault Trafic. This prototype vehicle, the only one of kind in the world, is powered by second-life lithium-ion batteries recycled from Renault electric cars. Circular economy at work with electric vehicles When, over time, the batteries of a Renault electric vehicle fall the performance threshold specified for their initial automotive power duty (around 75% of initial capacity), they can still provide valuable service in "second-life" applications before end-of-life disposal at a recycling centre. Experiments are already under way on power storage applications, for example.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
Weekly Recap: Autonomous driving goes commercial in Nevada
Sat, May 9 2015Nevada granted Daimler Trucks North America the first license to run an autonomous commercial vehicle on public roads in the United States Tuesday, marking another milestone in the technology's rapid advancement. Gov. Brian Sandoval and Daimler truck chief Wolfgang Bernhard promptly used the license to lap Highway 15 near Las Vegas in a newly revealed Freightliner Inspiration Truck. It was a clear signal that autonomous driving is big-rig reality, though it's still a long way from widespread use. Nevada certified two of Daimler's Freightliner Inspiration Trucks, which use the company's Highway Pilot system with a stereo camera, radar, and lane-keeping collision-prevention features to regulate the brakes and steering. The radar component has a long-range sensor that can cover 820 feet at an 18-degree angle and a shorter-range unit that stretches 230 feet at a 130-degree angle. The Inspiration trucks are based on the existing Freightliner Cascadia Evolution model used on US roads. In addition to the autonomous technologies, it also has futuristic design cues, including blue lighting in the front and a new hood and grille. While there are only two Freightliner Inspiration trucks in existence, Daimler expects to bring the Highway Pilot system into mass-produced big rigs by 2025, in time to capitalize on the market's predicted growth. The German truckmaker predicts the global hauling market will triple by 2050, and the United States will be a key part of that growth. Trucks carry 69.1 percent the nation's domestic freight tonnage and hauled 9.7 billion tons of freight in 2013, according to the American Trucking Association. Daimler expects autonomous driving to augment this growth, and perhaps evolve the role of the truck driver. Still, the company points out autonomous tech is not meant to replace drivers, but to assist them and relieve fatigue and monotony on long hauls. The driver has to stay in control for passing, in city traffic, and when hooking up the trailer. The company said autonomous driving also offers the potential for improved fuel economy – tests showed a five-percent gain – and lower maintenance costs. Daimler also said the technology could reduce congestion on the road. Much of this is attributable to the constant flow of traffic, which is aided by autonomous driving. While the benefits are becoming increasingly apparent, autonomous technology is still met with skepticism.
