I AQUIRED THIS CAR WITH THE ATENTION OF RESTORING IT TO ITS FORMER GLORY. I HAVE BEEN TAKING IT TO CAR SHOWS AND DRIVING IT AROUND. IT SAT IN A BARN SINCE 2001. A FRIEND OF THE FAMILY BOUGHT IT AND STARTED TO RESTORE IT BUT PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY AND HIS WIFE JUST LET IT SIT IN THERE BARN FOR 14 YEARS. SO I BOUGHT IT DRAINED THE GAS AND PUT A BATTERY IN IT AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP. IT SMOKES SOMETIMES WHEN IT IDELS BUT NOT WHEN DRIVING. IT HAS A SMALL FRONT SEAL TRANSMISSION LEAK THAT I CAN SEE FROM THE SPOT IN MY DRIVEWAY. I AM NOT A MECHANIC SO THATS ALL I CAN TELL YOU OTHER THEN THERE ARE SOME RUST SPOTS STARTING TO COME OUT OF PAINT. IT WAS REPAINTED AROUND 2000 TO THE COLOR SCHEME IT IS NOW. THERE IS SOME RUST UNDERNEATH THAT I CAN SEE BUT LIKE I SAID I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS OTHER THEN THE OCCASIONAL SMOKING. I PUT SEAT COVERS ON ALL THE SEATS SO THEY LOOK NEW THE SEATS UNDERNEATH ARE NOT THAT BAD JUST A FEW RIPS AND TEARS BUT THE SEAT COVERS WORK GREAT. THIS ALREADY STARTED RESTORE CAR IS A GUD RESTORE PROJECT FOR A CAR GUY TO FINISH NOT SOMEONE LIKE ME. ITS FUN TO DRIVE AND EVERYONE ASKS ABOUT IT EVERYWHERE I DRIVE IT. I WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THE BEST I CAN. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE CAR IS 40+ YEARS OLD AND NEEDS RESTORED THE PHOTOS FROM MY EXPERIENCE ALWAYS LOOK BETTER. THE CAR IS IN GOOD SHAPE THE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN TWO DAYS AGO SO THEY ARE CURRENT LIKE I SAID THERE ARE LITTLE SPOTS OF RUST POPPING THROUGH THE PAINT ITS HARD TO SEE FROM THE PHOTOS. I LIKE TO BE UP FRONT AND DONT WANT ANYONE DISAPPOINTED. THANKS

Next Chevy Volt will be 2016 model and ride on new chassis
Fri, Mar 7 2014What do we know about the 2016 Chevy Volt? Well, for now, all we can do is try to put the puzzle together without the box. Thankfully, a new batch of pieces has arrived from a new report in Edmunds, which says that the 2016 model year will introduce the second generation of a car that hasn't been dramatically updated since it went on sale in 2010. The new Volt is getting an "evolutionary styling change" and will ride on a new front-drive platform that has been developed by General Motors. GM's Kevin Kelly told AutoblogGreen that he has "no comment on future products," but he did acknowledge that Chevrolet is working on a second-generation Volt, "but I can't say anything about timing." Everybody already knew that a next-gen Volt is coming, so that's not a surprise. What we don't know is any real concrete information on the car itself. The few tidbits of information we do have help define the outlines of the next version of Chevy's halo car, but they're not confirmed yet. For the record, they range from the eye-raising (a $10,000 price drop) to the logical (20 percent more electric range). We can't see the whole picture yet, but the pieces do point to the 2016 Volt, which would be released next year sometime, being a much bigger deal than the last update, when the Volt's range was increased by three electric miles thanks to a battery capacity increase of 16 kWh to 16.5.
Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study
Wed, Jul 22 2015The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car. Check out the official release on the 2015 APEAL Study, available below, from JD Power. 2015 U.S. APEAL Study Results The latest safety-related technologies are among the drivers of customer satisfaction with new vehicles, according to the J.D.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
