I hate to get rid of this car but my twins are 16 and they need space in the garage. I moved the car to a storage place last month until I can sell the car. It's time to go to a new home. I've been struggling with selling this car for 2 years but now it's time. So here goes!

I purchased the car in 4/2005 restored by a gentleman from 2002-2005. He passed away when the car had only 243 miles on it and his wife then sold it. With the car shI received all the receipts from the restoration as well as some spare pieces I will give the new owner. After I purchased it I added front disc brakes with a twin master cylinder. I also added power assist steering. I replaced the hubcaps it was originally sold with the current Torque Thrust 2 wheels and new tires with a nicer pattern. I redid the trunk to match the restoration and also added an electric fan for those hot summer days. The car starts, runs and drives perfect. Just added a new battery. The car has sat in my heated garage since purchased only driving to an occasional car show when we first got it (It won many first place trophies) and just around town. The car turns heads EVERYWHERE and is a lot of fun to drive. The guy that did the restoration has the 348 flags on the hood but the car is actually a 283. It has a 4 Barrel holley carburetor.

So here it is for sale, the mileage on it now is 3,319 and that's it since the restoration. The car has sat long enough in the garage I think it needs to go to a good home where someone else can enjoy it.

So what's wrong with it? Well, I'm not the kind of guy who will lie to get a sale, there are a couple things that need attention.

  • The drivers and passenger side windows don't roll all the way up and seal. I never fixed it frankly because the car never went out in the rain. In fact I had some issues when I first got it with the wiper motor so I removed it and the wiper arms. I hated the way the wiper arms ruined the look of the car.
  • The fuel gauge has been acting up. I believe it may be a sending unit at this point, not a big deal to repair but it does need attention.
  • Paint is bright and beautiful but in taking the car out of storage I noticed some very small rust beginning to form under the drivers door. I also noticed a paint bubble on the passenger side door. Both will need to be addressed soon to prevent bigger issues.
  • The horn doesn't work

This beautiful car is waiting for a new owner to hop in and drive it to the ice cream shop. You'll definitely meet some new friends with this car, I did.

 

I have offered this car for sale using the auction style because I don't really know what it's worth. I know I love the car but that doesn't translate to money. I have a dollar figure in mind that I would like to get but I will not disclose that reserve price. I will tell you it is substantially less than I paid because I believe the few issues the car has impact the price significantly.  I also want to see it go to someone else and use the money for college for my boys (I'm gonna need it).

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace

Fri, Oct 16 2015

General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.
