This beautiful, smooth running V-8 convertible is great for cruising around town or long road trips. Very reliable with an electronic ignition and rebuilt TH-350 transmission. The engine has the original Rochester carburetor and a newer GM Performance air cleaner. The exhaust system has been upgraded with Hedman headers and full Flowmaster dual exhaust. It sounds amazing! It also has a new battery, new alternator and reconditioned radiator (and new hoses). The brakes; discs in front and drums in back work fine, but need new pads and rotors. The carb could use a tune-up and the sending unit for the gas tank is not very accurate. The exterior is rust free and has been repainted with period correct Flame Red with clear coat. The chrome bumpers are in good original condition with a few small stone chips and the front bumper has a small dent in the corner (see pics). The badges and emblems are all in place. There are a few small stone chips on the front edge of the hood. The side mirrors are 1970 Camaro/Chevelle sport mirrors. The wheels are aftermarket 16" Rallys and the tires are fairly new with about 5k miles on them. The convertible top is in ok condition, it doesn't have any holes or tears. But, it shows a bit of wear. The interior is refinished black vinyl and the carpet is new. It has brown stock GM lap belts and I have black aftermarket lap belts included. The heater/defroster work as do the windshield wipers and windshield radio antenna. All of the gauges work. There is a Rockford Fosgate CD head-unit and new speakers. 2 tweeters, center 4" and rear 6x9's. It sounds OK, not great. The power top works but struggles on the way up. It usually requires a hand assist to get it fully closed. The trunk is clean and rust free, with a full size spare and original jack. The windows are manual roll down, the rear passenger side window pops out of its track occasionally. Overall, this is a very reliable, fun, daily driver or weekend cruiser. I have tried to give as much info as I know, but I am not a mechanic. The car has been basically trouble free and now is starting to need some TLC. I don't have the time to keep up with it, so unfortunately I should sell it to someone who can. I will be sad to see it go. If you have any questions or would like to see it in person, send me a message. Please, only serious bidders and NO TRADES.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
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.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
