This is a 1965 Corvair with a crown v8 kit built many years ago. THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!!!! It has a 66 327ci with a 4 speed corvair transaxle which was beefed up to be a posi with I think 373 ratio (not sure) This car is built to race and is not for the faint of heart. It has a roll cage, hydraulic clutch, twin master cylinders, beefed up suspension, mallory unilite ignition, mallory electric 140 fuel pump, edelbrock 750 carb. aluminum radiator mounted in the front with all tubing running through a custom built tunnel, fuel cell, there is no back glass as it is done up with custom made louvers. the firewall is custom made aluminum and a thick removable plexiglas heat window. it has cog drive belts for water pump and alternator. any other questions, please ask... Is this car perfect? NO but, these v8 vairs are getting more scarce by the year. The paint is a 6 out of 10 and was last done back in the 80's so if you want a new paint job, you can do that if you buy it. I am looking for a buyer and no tire kickers. IF YOU HAVE 0 FEEDBACK< DO NOT BID OR I WILL CANCEL IT (contact me first if you have 0 feedback) Also, this car is SOLD AS-IS WHERE-IS with NO WARRANTY WRITTEN NOR IMPLIED. I also reserve the right to end this listing early should I sell it locally.... One last note, I don't have to sell this but, would like to see someone get some fun out of it as I don't run it much ....4 new National renegade XT white letter tires are on it as well

China's rise, global restructuring wither GM's Korea division
Wed, Jan 7 2015An article in the Daily Kanban suggests the sun is setting on GM Korea, and it could already be well into dusk. GM Korea came about when General Motors, along with co-investors SAIC and Suzuki, bought Daewoo Motors from parent company Daewoo Group in 2001; it had a previous tie-up with GM, a joint venture that ended in 1992, although Daewoo cars were based on GM cars until 1996. Over the decade following the purchase, it became such an important part of operations that it was renamed GM Korea in 2011, "to reflect its heightened status in [the] global operations of GM." Just two years later, the printed rumors were that the subsidiary responsible for a fifth of Chevrolet's global production could be shutting down. The division's sales were down almost 21 percent through November of last year, counting domestic South Korean sales, exports, and CKD – Complete Knock Down – products. That makes the labor strife, already an issue for four years, even more acute, reports say the subsidiary will lose $36 million a year if it can't get the job and wage cuts it wants, and government concessions can't make up for the losses. And it gets worse, so head over to Daily Kanban to read the rest of the story.
Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]
Wed, Dec 3 2014Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala
Fri, 31 May 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.
