Titles were not issued on this year car in Georgia you will receive a bill of sale so keep this in mind before you bid. After getting my late fathers car I find myself with too many car and so it is with much regret that I must sell my 1962 corvair Monza 900 sedan. Lot of time and money has been spent on this car in the last few years to make it a nice driver quality car. Before I got it it had a repaint which looks good but does have a few small swirl marks and the inside was redone to look original and the motor was rebuilt so it's not a leaker like alot of corvairs and it runs great and drives and stops straight. After I got it it just needed the little things fixed which did not come at a little price but I wanted every thing to work like it should and so I can say that every thing does indeed work including the 2 flaps in the rear with the fail safe thermostats and the heat and defrost work great and will have you toasty in no time without any kind of fumes at all just warm heat. The turn signals work and cancel like they should and being that the 900 was top of the line it has backup lights which work like they should. The speedo and gas gauge work like they should and even the lighter works. The horn works but has a button mounted under the dash and I am not sure what part is needed to make it work from the horn button and the am radio works but some times the volume goes down and a tap on the bottom of the radio brings it back up not sure whats up with that and one of the little flap windows has a small crack but the rest of the windows are in good shape. The engine has been converted to electronic ignition with a pertronix ignition kit but the original points and plate goes with the car and is an easy swap. I had 4 new shocks installed and it has a nice ride as far as corvairs go.it has the original 145 cu engine and power glide 2 spd auto transmission which shifts into second at around 40 to 45 mph under medium load. The car is in great shape for a 50 year old car but it's not a show car and will have the normal surface rust in the normal places but no heavy rust or rot or bondo anywhere. The car starts on the first try. I have not been on any long trips but I do take it to town and back on nice days and it has never let me down. Oh yeah even the glove box light works.so what's this car worth well I know not as much as has been spent on it but it has been fun to get in a 50 year old car and fire it up and every thing works like a car that's only a few years old and watch the looks on some peoples face when I open the trunk in the front and put bags of Groceries in it.so I will start with a low bid with no reserve and sell it to the high bidder. Titles were not issued on this year car in Georgia but you will receive a bill of sale.

GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues
Fri, Feb 27 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module.

In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.
New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
