100% Original Show Room Condition. True Survivor! on 2040-cars
Elgin, Illinois, United States
You won't find a cleaner Chevelle that is a true
original. Nearly everything on this car is from factory 1972 and in flawless
original 32,000 miles condition. The few changes to the car are considered bolt
on conversions and I have all necessary parts to convert this car back to original factory specs. I also have the original restricto plate from the factory which is very rare and adds additional value to the car. I have added a Flowmaster dual exhaust from the factory
manifolds back, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's with less than 3000 miles on them. In
2009 I added brand new all steel chromed period correct Chevrolet Rally wheels
with full metal center caps. Wheels alone were $2400 new for the set due to the
“Chevrolet Motor Division” logo etched on the steel center caps which is OEM
1972 Chevrolet spec. The original owner replaced the AM radio with an AM/FM
tape deck and added two rear speakers. I do have the original working AM radio,
factory rear speaker and a new rear deck shelf if you wanted the interior back
to 100% original. This car came new with steel wheels and hub caps and I have
the original hub caps to go with the car as well. This is a 350 Malibu package with an unmolested and never
painted 350 V8 2 barrel carb and even the air cleaner decal is original. Runs
like brand new with only 32,000 original miles and doesn’t burn or leak any oil
at all even during heavy acceleration. I did remove and re-paint the valve
covers in 2009. I also replaced the radiator in 2008 and found another factory
radiator for this car still in the original box from 1972. Everything in the
engine compartment is as clean as the day the car was made and has the original
hood insulation. The TH 350 transmission shifts flawlessly. I had a
classic car mechanic in my area give the car a complete bumper to bumper
diagnostic and everything was in perfect order. This car has no oil pan, Trans,
rear main seal leaks or differential leaks. Undercarriage was seal coated from the dealer and is not
pealing. There is no rusting on the frame, suspension or gas tank and straps. The interior is a standard bench seat automatic. No rips,
no tears, carpet looks brand new and not frayed anywhere. Not a crack or bubble
anywhere on the dash board and none of the plastic molding on the dash display
is chipped, damaged or faded in any way. Floor mats are factory original to
match the interior and look brand new. I can supply additional interior
pictures upon request. The pictures don't give the condition of the body and
chrome justice. Paint and chrome are both 100% original with no dents,
scratches, discoloration, and cracking or rust anywhere on or under the paint.
The chrome all around the car has no pitting, pealing or rust. These cars were
painted by hand in 1972 and there is a tiny factory paint overrun on the front
fender which is only noticeable if you are told where to look. The original
owner wanted a Heavy Chevy but couldn't afford the up charge so decided to have
the signature stripe added before taking delivery. Stripe decal shows very
little cracking and is very intact. From new this car has been garage kept during winter
months and has been very well taken care of since production 42 years ago. The
oil has been changed every year in the fall and has been properly conditioned
for climate controlled storage conditions year round. I also have a felt car
cover included in the sale of this vehicle. On Jun-27-14 at 14:00:15 PDT, seller added the following information: You won't find a cleaner Chevelle that is a true original.

Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and EV Buyer's Guide: Which one do you want?
Fri, Nov 10 2017If you're shopping for a new vehicle these days, there's a litany of acronyms, buzzwords, and technobabble to further complicate an already difficult decision. But if you're looking at a green powertrain, you have three basic choices to compare: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and "EV" or, electric vehicle. So what are they and which one — if any — is right for you? Research your next new vehicle using Autoblog's Car Finder. Gasoline-Electric Hybrids By now, most people are familiar with the concept of a hybrid car. Thank Toyota's Prius for that. At its most basic, a hybrid vehicle has two powertrains, one gasoline and one electric, which work together for maximum efficiency. At low speeds, the engine can shut off entirely, relying solely on the battery for propulsion. The battery is either charged as you drive by converting kinetic energy into potential energy via a complex regenerative braking system, or directly off of the gas motor. This is a very hands-off, behind-the-scenes system as all the driver has to is put in gas and drive as normal. Hybrids come in all shapes and sizes and, according to the EPA, range in fuel economy from 58 mpg for the Hyundai Ioniq Blue all the way down to 13 mpg for the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta. Best For: Anyone who want to see their fuel consumption go down without many sacrifices. You can easily find a hybrid sedan, hatchback, crossover, SUV or even a pickup truck (i f you can find one). Best of all, a hybrid requires no special equipment to be installed at home, or added work for the driver. Hybrids do cost more than traditionally-powered competitors, so make sure to compare projected fuel savings with how much extra a hybrid will cost – it may take a surprisingly long time to break even. The EPA provides a handy calculator for this very purpose. Our Favorite Hybrids: 2017 Toyota Prius 2018 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Plug-In Hybrids Sometimes referred to as a PHEV, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, this is a baby-step towards full electrification. Armed with a much larger battery pack than a hybrid, PHEVs can go between 12 ( Mercedes-Benz GLE550e) and 97 ( BMW i3 w/Range Extender) miles on electricity alone depending on the model and your driving style. Like a normal hybrid, the driver is largely unaware of which power source is currently in use, even as they switch over — either because the battery is drained, or the driving circumstances require more power.
GM recalling 521,817 cars in two campaigns
Tue, May 12 2015General Motors is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 521,817 vehicles worldwide. The larger campaign covers 468,887 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu. Specifically, 437,045 of these are in the US, and the rest are outside the country. In these sedans, a steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate. GM knows of 36 claims about the problem but only one minor injury. According to The Detroit News, this happened when a taxi driver hit his head. To fix things, dealers will replace the "outboard lap mounting bracket," which will move the tensioner rearward. They'll also inspect and if necessary replace the steel cable and lap pretensioner. In the second campaign, 52,930 examples the 2015 Chevy Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon have seat frame attachment hooks that were installed incorrectly during assembly. GM hasn't received any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities about this problem. Dealers will inspect the affected trucks and repair as necessary. GM spokesperson Alan Adler told Autoblog that he didn't yet have a specific date when affected owners would receive official mailings about either of these recalls. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 48,309 2015 model year Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks in the U.S. because certain seat frame attachment hooks were not properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. Dealers will inspect the potentially affected seats for proper installation and repair if necessary. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 52,930 including 4,620 vehicles sold in Canada. General Motors is recalling 437,045, 2011-2012 model year Chevrolet Malibus in the U.S. because the flexible steel cable that connects the safety belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of occupant movement in the seat. Dealers will replace the outboard lap mounting bracket to relocate the tensioner slightly rearward. Dealers will inspect the cable and, if necessary, replace the lap pretensioner. GM knows of 36 claims, no crashes or fatalities and one minor injury reportedly related to the condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 468,887 including Canada, Mexico and exports.
Sunday Drive: From a mid-engine 'Vette to a restomod RV
Sun, Jan 7 2018Automotive enthusiasts are a diverse bunch. As proof, we present last week's top posts on Autoblog, starting with some really good spy photos of the upcoming mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette. Will it be sold alongside a classic front-engine 'Vette? We have no idea, but we can't wait to find out. Up next is a pickup truck. Can't get much further from a supercar, right? At least both the Corvette and the 2019 Ram 1500 – which will debut a radical new design that appears to eschew the mini big-rig look of past Rams in favor of something more refined – are both American. Decidedly not American? The Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV. The boxy off-road 'ute looks a heck of a lot like the old one, which is probably a good thing, but we know it'll be fancier and more luxurious than ever before. Check out the leaked images below. Also hailing from Germany, but sharing absolutely nothing else in common at all, is the Audi A4 Allroad. We've been driving this all-wheel-drive wagon for a while now, and we like it quite a bit. And, last but not least, is a 1959 bus that's been converted into an RV. Like we said, y'all certainly are a diverse bunch.
