Week, 1965) The Malibu was purchased from Bob Coyle Chevrolet, 117 E. Santa Clara Street, San Jose, CA and the original owner took delivery on 3/23/65. The car is being offered for sale for the first time in its garaged life. The car was never a hand me down, never seen a high school parking or mistreated in anyway. The car went under a repaint in 1983. Madeira Maroon paint surface is crazed on the hood, top and truck. Besides being 30-years old, the crazing is due to the original paint not being removed but sanded, primed and repainted with lacquer. No body corrosion outside of the standard spots associated with the Chevelle Malibu, which is along the lip of the sheet metal under the truck where a rubber strip lays on top to give a finished appearance to the bumper application. Moisture and dirt tended to gather between the metal and rubber and set up corrosion. This car is a 100% California clean find. The car has been parked in a garage in Santa Clara County since the year 2000. It has been brought back to life beginning in June 2013. The following is the work that has been completed. Rebuilt Carburetor New Fuel Pump and Filter New Fuel Tank and fuel level

Doors and windows open and close easily. The driver side roll up window needs adjustment in the door to prevent minor sagging. This car does not exhibit ever having been in an accident. The original owners said they got bumped in the teacher’s parking lot on two occasions in the side fender panels. These events are not detectable on the body. The car is straight, the sheet metal is in great shape and the bumpers are perfect with out dents or even crooked. The engine long block has never been opened. The car received regular maintenance, starts easily and runs smoothly. The Powerglide transmission shifts appropriately and smoothly. It handles like a car built in the mid-60’s but it runs true and straight on the freeway with zero pull to left or right. With the new brake cylinders the manual brakes operate smoothly and evenly when stopping. The original 1965 Chevrolet Owner Protection Plan with the Protect-O-Plate comes with the car. The original working AM pushbutton radio is with the car and stored carefully in the truck. This automobile is a blank sheet of white paper to become whatever the 2nd titled owner desires the car to become. It is a rare find.

Next-gen GMC Sierra spied with diesel power
Tue, Sep 5 2017The next generation of GM trucks is arriving soon, and we're expecting a huge leap forward over the current lineup. The Chevy Silverado and the GMC SIerra sell extremely well, but haven't done much to move the segment forward in a long time. The Ford F-150 has an all-aluminum body and turbocharged V6 power. The Ram 1500 gained a diesel and coil spring suspension. These spy shots show that diesel may be in the cards for GM. Some quick shots and copious use of flash show what is most likely a tank for diesel exhaust fluid and a diesel particulate filter, both necessary equipment for any modern diesel. It's unclear what form factor that engine will come in, though GM has a number of engines to choose from, including the 2.8-liter inline four that's found in the Colorado and Canyon, though that may be a little light duty for the Silverado and Sierra. Other rumors surrounding the trucks suggest a move to an aluminum cab while retaining a steel bed. That seems like a reasonable move for GM, even if the company was attempting to shame Ford for its move to aluminum a few years ago. Look for more news as early as the Detroit Auto Show in January.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Star Wars Car Drives To The Dark Side Of Comic Con
Tue, Jul 22 2014When it comes to designing coveted collectible toys for sale at Comic-Con, the annual celebration of pop culture lifting off Thursday in San Diego, the sky's the limit for the designers at Mattel. Fittingly, the building where Mattel's dreamers conceive of their limited-edition playthings is just down the street from the Los Angeles International Airport. Inside the colorful design center - a Hot Wheels-themed shuttle bus transports employees from Mattel's parking garage - the designers have spent the past year working on 10 toys created especially for the Comic-Con crowd, including a replica of the Batmobile from the upcoming game "Batman: Arkham Knight" and a 9-inch-tall action figure of Superman killer Doomsday. "We don't have to worry about retail. We don't have to worry about margins," said Doug Wadleigh, Mattel's senior vice president of global brand marketing for boys and entertainment. "We don't have to worry about operational efficiencies. We only have to worry about creating the coolest toys for our fans. Period." It also offers some escape from Mattel's reality these days. Like other toy makers struggling in this digital, video-centric age, the company is trying to remain relevant in the retail world. Core brands like Barbie have seen less of a demand, with a 14 percent drop in sales in the first quarter of this year. Mattel had a net loss for the first three months ending March 31 that totaled $11.2 million. But things will at least seem rosier at Comic-Con, where eager buyers for the toys await (the only other place they will be sold is on the Mattel collector's site). Mattel's exclusives this year run between $20 and $85, but elite toys can fetch much more when they're put up for auction. The crown jewel for Wadleigh and his team this year is a Darth Vader die-cast car, the first official collaboration from Hot Wheels and the "Star Wars" franchise. The car - imagine if a Chevrolet Corvette C5 and the villainous Sith lord's helmet had a baby - comes in a sleek black box and encased in a replica of Vader's lightsaber, complete with a swooshing sound effect. "We've been trying to partner with Lucasfilm and Disney on this property for a long time," said Wadleigh. A full-size working replica of the Vadermobile will be on display at Mattel's booth at the massive San Diego Convention Center.
