 Hello, up for auction is a 1997 Chevrolet Lumina with 126,700 miles.  This vehicle is an automatic sedan with overdrive.  I am selling this for my family, my father in law drove this and recently passed away. I drove this car for around 50 miles to check everything out, and went through every control and feature that the car has.  I am very impressed with the car's handling and overall solid condition.  I have checked with the family and this car has never been in an accident (other than a low speed backup that sideswiped a wooden post), nor have any of the airbags been deployed. No warranty with the vehicle, vehicle sold as-is where-is.

The car was always driven weekly up till last month.  This vehicle was used to go to and from work. The car is in great condition mechanically, with no issues that prevent it from being driven across the state or cross country.  Oil  was changed every 5,000 miles.The brakes work perfectly, transmission shifts smoothly, vehicle does not shake or vibrate at any speed, and starts easily. Tires are at 85%-90% tread and match, radio works and all switches and controls work as well. Cruise control works, automatic door locks work, and all power windows work as intended except as noted below.

Here are the only issues with the Lumina:
  • The top of the cab has paint fading (see pictures)
  • The drivers side has scratches and minor dents from backing up into a post
  • The passenger side has several minor dents from parking lots
  • The A/C does not work and needs a new compressor
  • The cassette deck does not work (other than this, the original radio works well)
  • The dash is cracked above the steering wheel (see pictures)
  • The interior is in fair condition, with stains in the seats and carpet (see pictures)

The vehicle is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end auction at any time.  In addition, vehicle can be inspected between now and Wednesday if arranged, please email me to set up a time and for directions and details.  Vehicle is in Emanuel County Georgia near Kite. The successful bidder will need to pick the vehicle up by this Wednesday March 12th, 2014. If pickup must be made after March 12th, 2014, arrangements will need to be made for a Saturday or Sunday pickup only. Cash only. $100 deposit via email due 24 hours after auction ends (if vehicle is picked up within 24 hours of auction ending then deposit not required). Clear title is in hand.

Sinkhole Opens Up In National Corvette Museum, Swallows Eight Cars

Wed, Feb 12 2014

More cars are being moved inside the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. to avoid falling down the same sinkhole that swallowed eight classic sports cars early this morning, Autoblog reported. Museum officials said the hole was discovered when motion sensors activated around 5:45 a.m. The rescue mission can be viewed on the museum's live feed cameras, which weren't working after the sinkhole emerged. A 1993 ZR-1 Spyder and a 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil," both on loan from General Motors, were among the cars that fell into the sinkhole. The museum owned the other affected Corvettes, which included a 1963 Corvette, a 1984 PPG Pace Car and the 1 millionth Corvette ever produced. The state of the cars at the bottom of the hole isn't known, but trial lawyer and sinkhole expert Ted Corless said the cars may be a total loss for the museum and GM. "Most states, including Kentucky, exclude damage caused by sinkhole activity," he said. "There will be, in all likelihood, a claim made, but a lot of policies would specifically exclude these kinds of damages." Corless has 15 years experience dealing with sinkholes. He said that typically neither the building, nor the cars themselves are protected under their insurance policies. "I would have to say, more likely then not, they're going to have an uninsured loss measured in the hundreds of thousands of dollars." The museum is closed Wednesday while a structural engineer assesses the damage.

Recharge Wrap-up: NEDC's NOx problems, autonomous Chevy Volts

Mon, Dec 7 2015

The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) found a significant difference in NOx emissions in Euro 6 diesel cars in NEDC and WLTC testing. While 88 percent of the cars tested met emissions standards for NEDC, NOx emissions averaged five times higher under WLTC, with only 27 percent of vehicles under the limit. WLTC is considered to be a more realistic driving cycle, using hot starts and factoring a higher top speed as well as harder and more frequent accelerations than the NEDC. Read more at Green Car Congress.GM Canada will build a fleet of autonomous 2017 Chevrolet Volts. The self-driving Volts will be deployed for testing at GM's Warren, Michigan Technical Center. Employees will be able to use a carsharing app to reserve a car, which will then drive itself to the set destination. The project will allow GM to collect important data and experience to help the company more quickly develop autonomous driving technology.

The lithium-ion batteries used to power the EV were recycled from other Renault EVs. With the electric Trafic, Carwatt – a company that converts vehicles to use electric power – aims to demonstrate the "circular economy" of batteries, which can provide more value through a longer lifecycle. Read more in the press release below. Carwatt presents a unique automotive application for second-life batteries from electric vehicles. On the sidelines of the COP21 summit, in the Solutions Gallery running from 2 to 9 December 2015 in Le Bourget near Paris, Carwatt and its partners —Renault, Paris City Council, BPI France, the Ales Ecole des Mines Engineering School, and the Bobigny Business Campus — are showing a very special electric Renault Trafic. This prototype vehicle, the only one of kind in the world, is powered by second-life lithium-ion batteries recycled from Renault electric cars. Circular economy at work with electric vehicles When, over time, the batteries of a Renault electric vehicle fall the performance threshold specified for their initial automotive power duty (around 75% of initial capacity), they can still provide valuable service in "second-life" applications before end-of-life disposal at a recycling centre. Experiments are already under way on power storage applications, for example.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
