Selling this 1970 Chevelle Malibu for a friend of mine. He purchased this car a few months ago with intentions of modifying this car and turning into a daily driver. He had some things come up and now does not have the time or space to do needed work and would like to see this car go to a new home.

This car as far as he knows was not an original SS. Information he has on car is from previous owner and he did not go over thoroughly or tear into anything since he has had the car. There is some receipts and paperwork that were included with the car. The motor is a 406 Chevy small block with a 750 demon carburetor. Transmission is believed to be 350 auto TH trans. Rear is 10 bolt unknown gear ratio. Car was modified quite a bit. Shifter was installed on floor. It appears it would have been on the column from the factory. Unknown mileage on the current motor/trans. MSD ignition installed. Steel cowl induction hood installed. Interior appears to be original. Driver seat has tears in it. Refer to photos. Wiring is a bit of mess. Headliner needs to be replaced. has working headlights and turn signals. Both driver side and passenger side windows roll up and down. The rear windows will need work as they do not roll up and down. Radio installed and speakers but does not work. It has drum brakes all around. Has no gas tank. Fuel cell was installed w/electric fuel pump. NOS tank also installed but hadn't been hooked up. Battery is in trunk. Refer to photo. No wipers or wiper motor. Rust is in usual spots for this car around trunk deck, edges of windows, door sills, etc. Believe panel skins were added to the rear quarters there is rust on lower quarters. Body is straight, doors line up and open and close no problem. Chrome is in decent shape some pitting on front and rear bumper. Trunk, floor, fenders feel pretty solid. It appears car was coated with undercoating at some point in its life. Frame seems to be ok. Dual exhaust installed but turn down at front of rear axle. Wheels are 15" rally wheels with center caps and beauty rings. Front tires ok, rear ones could use replacement. Car has a few scrapes and dents. Front driver fender has a small dent. Passenger fender and door have dent and scrape. Refer to photo. Passenger rear chrome over wheel well is scraped. Cowl hood has some chips on driver side back corner. Decent quality paint job. Glass windows all ok. Has brand new lowering springs which will be included with the car. Some suspension work was done to the car (refer to photos) but not sure what was all changed/replaced.

This car has not been driven since purchase and has been garaged. It is believed the freeze out plugs in motor are leaking. Antifreeze has been leaking out onto the floor. Not 100% confirmed but this appears to be culprit. I am no mechanic and am not portraying to be. Please feel free to come out and take a look at the car before bidding. Car is in 19526 area code (Hamburg, PA). Email me

This is a decent car overall, seems solid and I believe has some good potential. I just want to be as honest as possible and explain as much as is believed to be known about the car. Don't want to waste anyone's time nor mine.   

He has clean title for the car in hand!!

Please refer to photos for any additional information on the car which I might have forgot to mention. Feel free to contact me with questions and I will try answer them as best as I can, but please do not bombard me with questions.

Sorry no trades!!!

Buick takes top spot in 2022 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study

Tue, Jun 28 2022

People, economies, and supply chains weren't the only things continuing to get sick over the past year. The 2022 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS) is out, showing the average rate of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100) during the first 90 days of ownership increased overall. The average figure for the 32 ranked manufacturers in 2020 was about 166 problems per 100 vehicles. In the 2021 IQS, that dropped to an average of 162. This year, the average jumps to 180 problems. J.D. Power says that figure is a record high over the 36-year history of the study. Buick leapt to the top of the rankings this year with the fewest issues, at 139 problems per 100 vehicles in the first 100 days of ownership. After Dodge became the first American automaker to lead the IQS in 2020, followed by Ram in 2021, this year marks a three-peat for U.S. carmakers. Dodge took second this year at 143 PP100, Chevrolet third with 147 PP100, Genesis the first luxury maker on the chart in fourth with 156 PP100. Between February and May, this year's study gathered responses to 223 questions from more than 84,000 new 2022-model-year car owners and lessees. The questions are designed to zero in on real-world problems new owners encounter with nine categories of vehicle features: Infotainment; features, controls and displays; exterior; driving assistance; interior; powertrain; seats; driving experience; and climate. As has been the case in the past few year, infotainment has proved to be the most problematic bugbear making scores worse. Considering features individually, six of 10 of the worst problem areas dealt with infotainment, causing infotainment's score of 45 PP100 to be 19.5 PP100 worse than the second-placed feature. Consumers ranked getting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to connect reliably as the most troublesome.  GM didn't just score with Buick, which was one of only nine of the 33 ranked brands to show improvement this year. The conglomerate earned first place with the fewest PP100 among all the automaker groups, and scored the most model-level awards with nine, ahead of BMW with eight and Hyundai Group with three.  This year's study again showed a gap between luxury and mass-market makers, thought to be down to the amount of tech in luxury vehicles that consumers aren't properly informed about or that doesn't act as expected — that latter issue exacerbated by the chip shortage.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
