Honesty being the best policy, here is whats wrong:

1. Carb (holly 4 barrel) needs rebuild or replacement. That is the only thing preventing it from being driven away. Had it examined by a professional mechanic who said that based on the description of the problem, it may need nothing more than new gaskets - but YOU'LL have to figure that out on your own.  Engine was rebuilt about two years ago, and has been an old mans grocery store runner ever since, so it has low miles on a rebuild - thus the "1000 miles" on the mileage as stated above. Don't remember what the odometer says, but it HAS been driven less than 1000 since rebuild - Probably WAY less. Great engine in other words - but I don't have the paperwork or receipts on the work, and I am not mechanically savvy enough to be able to tell you much about it, so you need to use your expert mechanical skills to see the greatness of the engine. I know enough from driving it, it runs great when the carb works, and people who look at the engine seem somewhat impressed - I'm just too ignorant to know why... (honesty sucks)

2. Needs brakes. It does stop, but you can tell that it will need them soon.

3. Needs new tires soon as well. They hold air, but they are old.

4. Needs a new muffler unless you like the way it sounds. It is likely that the exhaust would need to be replaced all the way up to the exhaust manifold, and the exhaust manifold is in fact the only thing on the engine that makes the entire engine compartment look horrible. The compartment itself is nice (flat black) and clean, the engine looks great (could use a quick cleaning, especially on the chrome - in fact come to think of it, the whole car could use a wash - sorry, I'm lazy. If you want it washed, buy it and wash it yourself - you'll find its quite a pretty car). If it weren't for the exhaust manifold, it'd look friggen AWESOME. 

5. Minor leak at the top right passenger side of the windshield, probably could use new window seals all the way around though. 

Thats it. Fix those 5 things and its mechanically a new reliable car. Cosmetically, it is old paint, has a smudge here a chip there, and a couple small rust bubbles, no rust showing yet, but overall, it still shines in the sun and it still turns heads, in fact you will be lucky to not have to stop and thank people for compliments every 2 blocks. It is a GREAT looking car. Inside looks great as well. It is aged, but has newer carpet on the floor, door panels are in great shape, headliner is in great shape. The front bench seat has two large (and ugly) rips, one at each end, but the front backrest is in great condition. In the back seat, there are two small rips in the same places as the front, the the early stages of the condition of the front seat, but they are very small, and the back-backrest is in excellent condition. Found a company in California who will sell you the original style factory seat material as well as new seat foam for $500.00 but I got along fine with a big green sheet for a seat cover.  All the lights and gauges work, including an installed temp/oil/batt gauge. (temp gauge died, $25.00 fix) When the car runs, (with a muffler) its as quiet as a mouse and rides smooth as hell.  Transmission is fine by the way. 

contact through Ebay messaging or call  and I can and answer any questions. (I am on the phone a lot, so if you reach v mail leave message and I will call back.)

This is the most honest assessment of this car that I can give. It IS being sold as is, and while to the best of my knowledge the car is great. But I don't want to hear it if you buy it and a tire pops or something. It IS an old car, and things wear down, but I think with a little TLC it will run for years to come.

Should also mention, it seemed to run hot, considered installing a larger radiator, but instead installed two fans (seen in image that looks directly down on the radiator) and installed the switch on the dash.It worked great so never bothered switching to a larger radiator. They (the fans) run whether the car is on or off, which is a mixed blessing. Its great if your in a traffic jam and need a little extra wind, but if you forget to turn it off after you turn off the car, it will be happy to kill your battery - and speaking of batteries, it may need a new one. Its been sitting for a few months, and has died down. Also (just remembering) the bolt that holds the alternator on has snapped, and its being held on by a bracket over the top. It runs as is, but would strongly recommend replacing that bolt that too. I went to do it one day but bought the wrong size and never bothered again, because the carb started spraying gas out the sides (indicating possibly that all it needs is the gasket kit, but not sure) so I never bother to get a new bolt because I couldn't drive it anyway. 

Also original hubcaps and accompanying rims are in the trunk.

Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept

Sat, Nov 22 2014

"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.

2016 Chevy Volt sneak peek at CES

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Here it is, folks – your first real glimpse at the 2016 Chevrolet Volt. The gasoline-electric sedan will officially debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week, but Chevy gave us a sneak peek of its redesigned Volt at a media event in Las Vegas late Sunday, as part of its CES festivities. There isn't a ton to see here, and sorry about the low quality video (and for us not standing front and center during the reveal). But we can clearly see the car's redesigned front fascia – something recently previewed at a fan event in Los Angeles. For another view, check out a high-res photo of the new Volt from our friends at The Verge, here. Chevy even tweeted a photo of the Volt's new nose on its official Volt Twitter account, which you can see below. The automaker didn't divulge any details about its new Volt, but we already know quite a bit. For starters, the Volt will use a new, 1.5-liter gasoline engine and won't require premium fuel. It'll have more EV range and a bigger battery, too. We'll have a whole mess of information when the 2016 Volt is fully revealed in Detroit in about one week's time. In the meantime, here are some more looks at the Volt, courtesy of the Twitterverse. We're so excited about #NextGenVolt we brought it out early at #CES2015!

GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses

Thu, Apr 7 2016

May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.
