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.

Chevy Corvette Z06, Ford F-150 Raptor join Lego Speed Champs

Tue, Oct 20 2015

Get ready to park some performance machines on your desk: Lego's 2016 line of Speed Champions kits will add seven new vehicles for next year, according to an update to the database Brickset. These include some serious muscle like a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Ford Mustang GT. There's also a listing called "Chevrolet Camaro Drag Race" and a very cool combo titled "Ford F-150 Raptor Ford/Model A Hot Rod". Fans of European performance don't need to be jealous, though. The database shows a kit called "Porsche 919 Hybrid and 917K Pit-Lane." Plus for fans of the Four Rings, the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and R8 LMS Ultra are also getting their own Lego models. Fourtitude appears to have some leaked shots, if you want to see what these kits will look like. Lego has partnered with Porsche, McLaren, and Ferrari and offers Speed Champions kits for vehicles like the Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren P1, Ferrari 458 Italia GT2, and LaFerrari. The models in the series aren't as heavily detailed as the massive Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Bus sets, but they make up for that in value. The individual cars retail for a fairly affordable $14.99. The Formula One playset tops the current range at $99.99, but it comes with a truck, racecar and team figures.

Chevy donates first 2016 COPO Camaro to United Way

Fri, Jan 29 2016

Want to get your hands on the first new COPO Camaro? Scottsdale will be the place to be this weekend. That's where Barrett-Jackson will auction off the drag-racing muscle car with the serial number 2016COPO001. The example on the docket is the very same show car that Chevy revealed at the SEMA show just a couple of months ago. Like every new COPO Camaro, it's based on the new sixth-generation coupe and packs an array of drag-racing upgrades. Those include a three-speed automatic transmission, solid rear axle, and adjustable suspension. While Chevy will offer the new COPO Camaro with a choice of three engines, this particular example packs the 5.7-liter supercharged V8, as well as a unique red and black livery designed by Chevy drag racing driver Courtney Force. 100 percent of the proceeds from the sale are destined to go to United Way, following previous examples that benefited wounded veterans. You can bet it will raise a pretty penny at auction, but if you miss this one, of course there will be more. Just don't wait around too long as the Bowtie brand will only make 69 of them this year. 2016 COPO Camaro No. 1 Sale to Benefit United Way Courtney Force designed show car to be auctioned for United Way 2016-01-26 DETROIT – Chevrolet will auction off the first, sixth generation 2016 COPO Camaro race car to raise money for United Way. The purpose-built COPO Camaro, serial number 2016COPO001, will be sold on Friday, Jan. 29, at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction. All proceeds of the winning bid will benefit United Way. "This is a special opportunity to purchase the first of the sixth generation, 2016 COPO Camaro while also helping such a great cause," said Jim Campbell, U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. The COPO is a powerful, purpose-built Camaro designed to race in NHRA Stock Eliminator class. The COPO Camaro legacy continues with an all-new sixth-generation version. This modern-looking machine infuses legendary COPO performance with the modern, lighter and stronger design of the 2016 Camaro. Chevrolet introduced the sixth generation COPO Camaro No. 001 last November at the SEMA Show and includes a personalized look created by Chevrolet and NHRA Funny Car driver Courtney Force. It features a Red Hot exterior color with Courtney Force-signature graphics and red-accented grille trim. "I was extremely honored to work with Chevrolet and help design the 2016 COPO Camaro," said Courtney Force.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.
