This is a beautiful, smooth cruiser and runs drives and shifts as should be expected. Of the eight collector cars we owned at one point, this is the one we decided to keep. It's easy to start, drive and enjoy. On top of that, you will get 18-20 MPG from a 300+ HP classic. It has a GM Goodwrench 350 replacement engine with a mild cam for some extra giddyup. Backed up with a 700R4 automatic overdrive and I believe 2.73 rear gears. The combination results in low engine and exhaust noise on the highway if you're in the mood. Otherwise, leave it in 3rd gear and you will be hearing the pleasant tone from the custom Flowmaster exhaust, with it's thrushy sounds. It sounds like a true musclecar, just as you would expect. Heads will turn wherever you go and people will ask you to take a closer look. There are some custom touches that initiate conversations about things people have never seen, like the engine gauges mounted into the dash, and the custom speedometer face. The paint was professionally done about 6 years ago, as were the seats also.

This car was originally sold from a dealer in the Kansas City area as evidenced by the build sheet which is still under the back seat. It was originally a Jade/Green combo. When we had it painted we chose an early 90's GM truck code for the blue, and a pearled black for the racing stripes. 3 coats of clear over the paint really gives it a luster. Of course we put the cowl hood on since we were going for the SS look, along with all the normal badging and some extra SS's on the wheel hubs. If you prefer to use Malibu markings, it would be relatively easy to do since all the badges are mounted with silicone and can be peeled off with little effort.

Lots of custom parts under the hood including a Edlebrock electric choke carb, aluminum intake, K&N air cleaner, headers, chrome Chevrolet valve covers with logo paint matching the exterior, and a chrome radiator hold down. The interior has new seat covers, new carpet, custom mounted engine gauges, hippie gas and dimmer pedals, the 3 hole 12" deep dish steering wheel popular back in the day, Pioneer AM/FM/CD and Pioneer speakers front and back. It also has a tilt steering wheel and non functioning cruise control from the 70's (mounted on the turn signal lever). The car was an original air conditioned and I saved the compressor and hoses when I removed it from the car as they were also non functional. It didn't have a belt on it when I bought the car and I removed the stuff just to make the engine compartment look a little more tidy. You will get the compressor, bracket and hoses with the car.

We are forced to sell as we just purchased a new home and have no place to store it. Somebody is going to enjoy this car as much or more than we have.

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773

Fri, Mar 24 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna.Â Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts Â– Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify Â– Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS Â– Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 Â– Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email Â– Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

GM wants to have 10 plug-in models in China in five years

Sun, Apr 24 2016

Last we checked, General Motors was selling all of three plug-in vehicle models in its home country of the US, and is prepared to make the Chevrolet Bolt EV available on these shores later this year. So it's notable that the automaker is hatching plans to have at least 10 plug-in variants for sale in China within the next five years, according to Hybrid Cars. Which plug-ins are coming remains a mystery. GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. The strategy makes sense, as China is now the world's largest car market, and accounts for about a third of GM's annual revenue. The automaker, which operates in China under the SAIC-GM and SAIC-GM-Wuling joint ventures, sells cars there under the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and Boujun badges, and has been doing so for the better part of two decades. Most recently, GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. What we do know is that GM is building its Cadillac CT6 Plug-in Hybrid in China, with distribution to be split between China and the US. That model, which is scheduled to start sales by the end of the year, is being built overseas because of a combination of Chinese government support for new-energy vehicle technology through incentives and the fact that battery-pack maker LG Chem makes most of its cells in nearby South Korea. The plug-ins are part of a broader plan by General Motors to either introduce or substantially tweak about 60 models by the end of the decade. With such new models, GM looks to boost unit sales by as much as five percent a year for the next few years. As for the other nine plug-in models slated for China by 2021, the company is mum. GM spokesman Dan Flores declined to comment to AutoblogGreen.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
