I picked this up from a man in south Georgia last week. Here is what he told me: the car was driven regularly until several years ago when it was parked and not driven again. So it has been parked for several years. He told me that the engine and transmission (Powerglide) were running fine before the vehicle was parked. What I have observed is the following: upon tilting the car upwards when putting it on the tow truck old gasoline spilled out from under the gas tank area. So, the gas tank or a related part probably has a leak. The bottom of both right side doors is rusted out. So the passenger doors need to be rebuilt or replaced. There is no battery in the car. The engine compartment and spare tire/trunk area seem to be fairly clean/low on rust for such an old car. According to the man I bought it from, one of the previous owners put some type of sealant around the trunk area which seems to have kept excessive moisture from getting to the spare tire/trunk area. There are several other parts on the car which will likely have cosmetic or mechanical issues due to the age of the vehicle and the fact that it has been sitting for so long. The bottom line is this: this car needs to be completely refurbished mechanically and cosmetically or just used for parts. I have had the car less than a week and know almost nothing about its history. There is no title; I will issue you a bill of sale. The mileage is unknown. This vehicle is sold AS-IS. I can not warrant the operational or cosmetic condition of any single item on the car.

Please read this passage carefully: The total price of the car is $1500. there is an immediate deposit of $500 due via paypal in order to end the auction. After that, you will have 31 calendar days to pick up the car and pay the remaining $1000 in cash. Most sellers give 7 or 14 days. In fact, eBay doesn't even have a drop-down selection longer than 14 days for the balance to be paid in full. I am giving you 31 calendar days from the time of the deposit. If the car is not picked up in 31 days, the deposit is forfeited and will not be refunded. Let me be clear: if the car is not picked up in 31 days the deposit will be foreited in full and the car will be resold to someone else. I am not going to refund the deposit for any reason. If you have a death in the family, a major financial catastrophe or any other type of incident in your life which prevents you from paying the $1000 balance I am very sorry but it will not cause me to refund the deposit. So, please do not use Buy-it-Now and issue the $500 deposit until you are confident that you can pick up the car and pay the remaining balance of $1000 within 31 calendar days. I am sorry that the policy has to be so rigid but I have sold many cars on eBay over the years and all too often people do not follow through and I am stuck with lost time, lost opportunities and lost listing fees. So this policy is intended to make sure that doesn't happen.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.

GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee

Tue, Sep 8 2015

General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.
