1966 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible, 110 engine, 3 speed manual transmission, power electric top. runs, drives, and shifts good. Body work finished about 2 years ago, painted about 1 year ago. Any rust found was cut out and metal welded in. Lots of new parts installed within last year or so including new top (not a cheap $200 top either, but a good quality one) cost me $950 just for top, new convert. top cables, new top boot, new upholstery on seats, new carpet, new rear side panels, etc. Tires are like new BfGoodrich T/A radials 215-60 14 on newly painted 14x7 rally wheels, new weatherstrips on engine lid cover and trunk cover, new engine lid "110" emblem, new front fender "Monza" emblem, 2 new tail light lens, new outside chrome door handles, new door locks, new master cylinder, new fuel pump, new carb fuel filters, new coil, new distributor tune up parts, new plugs and wires, new battery, new arm rest bases, Corsa gauges and shifter base, speedo, tach, and fuel gauge work, manifold pressure gauge and cylinder head temp gauge never hooked up, new rear nylon strut rod bushings and strut sleeves, new clutch adjuster, new glove box lock assy, new steering wheel adapter, etc, etc, etc. I am sure I haven't listed everything that has been replaced, but this gives a good idea. The red pin stripe is paint, not just some cheap sticker, but was painted first, then other colors painted and whole car clear coated. There are 3 coats of color and 4 coats of clear that was applied when painted. Paint is very nice as shown in pics, but it is not perfect. There are extremely few, if any, perfect paint jobs out there. There are a few things that I never got around to, for example, never put on new door seals or seal across front of convertible top that seals against top windshield frame, radio either isn't hooked up or doesn't work, front trunk lid needs a new lock put in (I may have one, just haven't got around to it), have not installed sun visors. I have them, think one needs re-upholstered, but I have both and will go with car. Really hate to sell, but I am buying some land and need the money for that. No trades. Car is located in Somerset Ky. 42501. I have car listed locally and reserve the right to end the auction early for any reason. Please come look at and drive the car before bidding. Winning bidder to pay non-refundable $300 deposit via pay pal and rest in cash at time of pick up. If not picking up in person, payment to be made by certified bank check and car will not leave my possesion until I have proof from my bank funds have been transfered.

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon
Sat, Jun 20 2015MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt CarPlay video, Tesla Supercharger importance
Fri, Feb 5 2016A video demonstrates Apple CarPlay on the touch display in the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. The Volt's eight-inch (bigger than an iPad Mini) capacitive display is capable of putting Siri and your iPhone apps and right at your fingertips. It's "the best CarPlay display I've seen," says the user in the video. In case you're not in the market for a new Volt, 9to5Mac offers some of its favorite aftermarket CarPlay screens. See the video above, and read more at 9to5Mac. A single Supercharger can make a big difference in the life of a Tesla owner. Teslarati's Electric Jen talks about purchasing a Model S, being assured by both Tesla employees and the map of planned Supercharger sites that one would be built along an important route for her. With the construction being pushed back, it made visiting family tricky. "As if owning such a grand car isn't embarrassing enough, asking for a ride to drop off and pick up said car because you can't make it home without charging really made me feel awkward," she says. "You see, one single charging location can mean the world to some people," Jen adds. Read the whole article at Teslarati. Tesla once had considered creating mobile range extender trailers for the Model S. Elon Musk touched upon the abandoned idea during his visit to Paris. While Tesla ultimately dismissed the concept, Nomadic Power has taken the opportunity to hitch their product onto the Tesla brand. "We are delighted, that Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk is thinking about a concept like ours for even more extending the range of the Tesla models," says Nomadic Power's CEO Manfred Baumgaertner. He adds, "This confirms our approach to build a long distance mobility provider for all electric vehicles on the market." If you say so, Baumgaertner.

When the batteries have degraded to the point that they're no longer suitable for use on the road, they still have a significant capacity that can be used for other purposes. Still useful for stationary storage, they can be used to support charging sites in order to allow for faster charging. The stationary batteries can charge slowly at the site, but then offer up the juice in a hurry when it's needed for a vehicle. Read more from Renault.
