1970 Chevelle Malibu Runs/drives Soild Car! on 2040-cars
Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
I bought this car a while back on a whim because of its great condition,I really don't have time to restore it as I'm already working on 3 other muscle cars.All I've done to it is change plugs,wires and adjust timing.Runs decent,has some slight smoke when revved.Could just be a rich condition.One of the best examples of a unrestored car I've seen in the southeast rust wise.Original colors were Grean/Green.I don't remember the actaul colot name at the moment.All rust is pictured.It could easily become a driver.Here's everything I can think of mecanical wise. The Good, 1975 block 350/350 Engine and trans.Heads are 186 double hump with accessory holes dates 3/69 Engine compression between 175 and 188 checked cold and dry.Aftermarket aluminum radiator. Clean/clear title The Bad, Leaks atf fluid from pump,Balancer seal leaks,power steering works,but leaks bad from box,Car has usual bad brakes associated with old drum brakes on all 4 wheels,Weak springs,leans on passenger side,Noise coming from speedo when driving needle bounces,No trunk or door keys,trunk open with screwdriver,Windshield cracked and weathered badly, The Missing, Trans dipstick is missing,Engine dipstick is broke off in block if you were to remove header there still plenty to grab on to ,so pulling it out should not be an issue,prvious ower just had a Mr. Gasket one sitting on top of it.There's no inner fenders or battery box.Also the plug wires on it will be replaced with others as these belong to my camaro. All rust is pictured The Body, Rust hole front bottom driver door Floor pans solid,small rust spot driver floor board Bottom rear of front fenders have been patched with a lap joint and spot welded,not professional IMO,but functional. "One side pictured" Remainder of front fenders and rad support solid,not even pitting on underside of fenders or support. Bottom rear of both quarters need some small patching,driver more than passenger Inside of wheel lips need the smallest of metal work as can be seen. All original quarters!!! Package tray solid,small amount of rust on weather stripping from deck lid to truck Dash and metal under rear widow look free and clean of rust from what can be seen which is highly unusual Trunk floor is still intact,has the usual extensive rust pitting,if making a driver,you could easily epoxy prime undercoat/thin roll on bedliner and splatter paint the floor ad a mat and you would never know if your not looking for a show car.Chalky section in the trunk is where I put phosphoric acid on it to experiment with rust removal then had to leave suddenly,so it was not removed in time.It will come back off with a wire wheel or I believe if you reapply it will become active again and rinse away with water. All body parts are there that have been removed in pics,Rear bumper is about the same condition as the front fairly straight with bad chrome. Passenger side rear quarter above bumper has some bondo coming through a hole. Driver door slightly sags needs adjusted/hinge bushings replaced Passenger doors outside handle does not work. Really bad DA work on exterior paint by previous owner Overall the car has minimal rust in my opinion and is very straight. This is everything i can think of as of now.Please email me with any other questions you may have. |

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee teases return with a Countach
Fri, May 29 2015Unless you have an intense aversion to Jerry Seinfeld, it's hard not to find something to like about his show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. After all, the series combines funny people telling often hilarious stories while riding in ridiculously cool vehicles. The trailer for the sixth season is now online, and based on this tease, this definitely looks worth watching no matter what part of the videos interest you. Of course, it's the automotive portion that really grabs us, and Seinfeld has quite a fleet to showcase for season six. The trailer shows off a Lamborghini Countach, a '57 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible, a classic Volkswagen Beetle in the green and white German Polizei livery, a Morgan, an Aston Martin DB5, and a Ferrari 308. On the more humorous side of things, the guest list at least includes Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jim Carrey, Steve Harvey, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher and upcoming host of The Daily Show Trevor Noah. Season six of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee premieres on Crackle on Wednesday, June 3, at 11:30 PM ET.
GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design
Sat, Jun 6 2015General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI. The roles and responsibilities of Helen Emsley, Mark Adams, Carlos Barba, Clay Dean, Michael Simcoe, and Teckla Rhoades remain the same.

GM, Pilot will build EVgo fast chargers at 500 truck stops across U.S.
Thu, Jul 14 2022All 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.
