GENERAL DISCRIPTION

This listing is for a 1967 Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe (2 dr ht) and is a "NON" running or driving Project. This was a factory V8  4 speed, bench seat car when new, and I have the documents to prove it, but now it has "NO" Motor or Trans or Brakes !! Otherwise the car still retains most of it's original parts and is about a  90% complete rolling project. The car will roll and steer to be put on a trailer but has no brakes.  The car will need a serious restoration, however it is far from being junk and is as good or better than most project Chevelle's.  The body has rust and will need panel replacement, however it is structurally sound and has a solid foundation in all the necessary places, and in the proper hands, this car will prove to be an excellent (and even easy) restoration canidate, that will result in a High End - High Dollar Collector item !!  For those still interested I will describe in detail all the good and bad issues with the car. I want you to know exactly what you are buying and getting into. The car has a more than fair reserve (don't ask), and is priced to sell. The parts alone on this car are worth more than my reserve. I run honest - no bull - auctions, so if you are truly interested in the car, be on top at the end, (and be serious), because I do "NOT" drive up my own bids or use friends bids !!   All bids you see will be honest and legit bidders.

TITLE & DOC'S

I do have a clear /open Florida Title in my name and will be turned over to the new owner after funds have been received and bank cleared.

I have original documents on the car including the original dealer delivery window sticker invoice that shows prices and options, and also the original owners warranty book and metal Protect-O- Plate info.

VEHICLE CONDITION

 This is a Goodcar - Badcar situation, and the pro builder will say "no problem" and the amateur will say "no way". With that said, I'll describe all the Good-Bad-Ugly issues and you can decide wether it's right for you. Overall this car is a great builder, but you will need to judge it from the inside out and not on the overall appearance.

First of all lets look at the good aspects. This car was undercoated when new, so it helped save most of the undercarrage. The frame is in excellent condition with only the normal surface rust and has not been bent nor damaged. The inner and outer rocker area is rock solid, as is all of the support areas and bracing. The trunk drops are excellent as are the inner wells - trunk hump - rear floor - and under rear seat. The front floors are rotted through in places, but not all the way to the rockers, and have plenty of good metal left to work with. The trunk floor has been fiberglassed over by previous owner and is hard to tell how solid it actually is. Looks ok, but I would count on replacing the complete trunk floor. The window channels are very solid for this kind of car. The back channel looks good as does the package tray area and should not need any repair. The front channel is good except the strip on the bottom at the dash and the corners. Top of dash is in great condition, so a simple repair panel for the front window channel is all that's needed. The roof is nasty to look at, and mostly covered in surface rust, but is solid and with no rot or weak spots, except for a small area on the sail panel (shown). The fire wall needs a small simple patch around the heater core area outlet, but otherwise this and the cowl area is very solid. The door posts at the bottom corners will need small patchs, but not serious. Just want you to know all !!  The front fenders can be saved and repaired with a few small patchs, and the rad support and inner wells are all solid. Both doors are good. The r/s door is excellent and the l/s door is ok from the outside, but will need some attention on the bottom inside. The trunk lid is very solid only having minor rust, and is solid on the inside lip and edges.

Now for the bad news - Both 1/4 panels and the rear light panel, along with a complete trunk floor should be replaced. 1/4 s can be repaired with alot of time and patience, but would be much faster and easer just to replace. The worst area for rust on the car is the weatherstrip channel inside the trunk, and with new  -"FULL" - 1/4 s, and a rear light panel, this problem will take care of itself, as the full panel will include the weatherstrip channel's and the sail panel area. The good news to all this is these panels are readily available and fairly cheep, and with a solid foundation to weld to, this should be a simple repair job.

The only other thing worth mentioning about rust is the metal removable dash panel that houses the instruments was rusted badly and was removed, but I have another panel that is in pristeen condition.and goes with the sale. The old one still has the braces and cluster in it and you can use this to make a good one. The un-removable part of the dash is excellent, so when finished, all of the metal dash parts will be good.

The only ugly news is the hood is pure junk !!  It is included, but will need to be replaced.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%

Sat, Jun 13 2015

General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
