1965 Malibu 
2 door Hardtop
** NO RESERVE**

I bought this car along with a convertible a couple of years ago. I have since sold the convertible and because I have too many projects ahead of it, this is now for sale. I have come to realize that I will never get all of the cars done I was hoping to, so I will be listing several of them all unreserved over the summer.

Description

Mechanical: The engine runs well ( I was told there are very few miles on it since a rebuild... I have no idea if it is a 283 ,327 or 350 but it is a 4 barrel) and does not smoke or make strange noises, the transmission shifts well and car seems to steer as it should. The brakes need the lines replaced. I replaced one last week to move it around the yard and this morning when I moved to take pictures the other line gave out so right now it has no brakes. The battery needs to be replaced, the electrical seems to work as it should although I did not check every light and accessory. The fuel tank has been removed and is included, I run it now off a gas can. The exhaust system will need some work but it is not real loud.

Interior:  The seats were redone at some point are in acceptable condition with some fading but not torn up, the carpet is worn and the headliner and door panels are driver quality at best, the dash pad is cracked but the dash is original and complete.

Body: The body is rough, the left rear 1/4 has damage behind the wheel opening and rust and rear bumper is pulled away on that side.  A rock from my lawn mower broke the back window  other wise the glass is good and roles up and down there are a couple of small chips in the windshield but no cracks. I have not put the car on the hoist but from checking it out while it was on the trailer the floors seem reasonable, the frame and cowl look good. The trunk floor needs to be replaced, the previous owner removed the fuel tank to do the repair but never finished it (the fuel tank and straps are included). All the trim seems to be there. The car has the expected amount of rust for its age. Originally the car appears to have been a darker metallic blue from the factory.

Title: This car has a British Columbia title and registration, if the winning bidder is from the US I can help with importation documents as I have done it many time before.

Overall: This is a car that needs to be completely redone. The most cost effective way would be to use a 4 door as a parts car, most everything this car needs a 4 door will provide. It is a bucket seat car with floor console and shifter and interestingly enough has a working 8000 RPM Tach  which appears to be factory equipped. I couldn't find enough information on a Canadian Malibu to see if it was available as an option. It would take very little work to make a driver out of it and for the most part its all there. In reasonable condition these cars bring 20,000+ so there is a lot of room to improve this car and still be in it for the less than market value. If you in the market for a 1960's Chevy muscle car that, when done  won't cost more than a house then with no reserve this may be the car for you.

Location: The car is located in Salmon Arm in south central British Columbia about 4 hours from the US border.

Payment: Certified bank draft or cash when you pick it up is good, but bank to bank wire transfer is preferable. Payment must be made within 5 days of the close of the auction... no exceptions... I can store the car at no charge for a month or two if you need time and can help arrange shipping if needed ( I have shipped many cars across Canada and the US but will not give out shipping quotes except to the winning bidder as it takes a lot of phone calls to arrange a shipper)

Note: If you use the Buy it Now I will at my cost install the gas tank and do the brake work needed to make the car roadworthy so it can be driven a long distance
in case the buyer wants to drive it home.

GM, Pilot will build EVgo fast chargers at 500 truck stops across U.S.

Thu, Jul 14 2022

All of our maps showing electric vehicle charging stations across the U.S. are going to need an update. Today, General Motors, Pilot and EVgo announced plans to work together on a nationwide DC fast charging network. The plan calls for 2,000 charging stalls that can deliver up to 350 kW to be installed at up to 500 Pilot and Flying J travel centers in the U.S. The goal is to have DC fast chargers available in 50-mile intervals across the country. The new charging stations will feature GM's "Ultium Charge 360" branding and "Pilot Flying J" logos but will not be limited to drivers of GM EVs. The plugs will use CCS connectors and be available to anyone. GM EV owners can take advantage of benefits, including the ability to make exclusive reservations, get discounts on charging costs and streamline the charging process with Plug and Charge and in-vehicle apps that can provide real-time charger availability. The first installation phase will take place in 2023, and "the bulk of the installations" should be completed by 2025, EVgo CEO Kathy Zoi said during a conference call with reporters announcing the plan. "We're gonna get going immediately and commence all of that engineering and planning stuff," she said. "We've got a pretty orderly plan." Pilot CEO Shameek Konar said the company expects the new EV charging stations to coexist with the current fuel infrastructure. "An average Pilot Flying J location is about 10 acres," Konar said. "This will be in addition to all of our gas pumps. The way I think about it is, this is a new source of energy that is going to coexist with gas for quite some time. We can debate how long, but we need to serve both groups of customers." Installing DC fast chargers at hundreds of Pilot's travel centers — aka truck stops — means there should be food, drinks, restrooms, WiFi and even showers available while you wait for an EV to charge. Pilot recently announced its “New Horizons” plan that will invest $1 billion in upgrading Pilot travel centers with more premium amenities, including expanded seating and lounge areas. While the exact amount of time it will take to charge an EV using these new stations will vary on the EV and its current state of charge, most EVs can refill from a low state of charge to around 80 percent in 20-30 minutes on a fast charger. The new stations are future-proofed to deliver up to 350 kW, a charge rate that few EVs today can handle.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
