This is the cleanest 1978 Malibu you will find on ebay don't let it get away. 

This is a very clean 1978 Malibu two door that I bought from Arizona as one owner about  two years ago now in Southern California in a garage. The rear frame rails are solid no rust (see pics) and with these car they are known for the rear frame rails rotten out.  I bought this car to hot rod and

 

decided it was too clean and original to change. Has cruse control and air-conditioning and both work great. Everything on the car works it is 35 years old so has its nicks and scratches. The interior has bucket seats that are cloth black and gray all the door panels are in good condition.  has original v-8 engine and overdrive automatic trans. with a posi rear-end. The tire are in very good condition along with the Chevy Rally wheels 15x8" on rear and 15x7" on front with steel corvette centers and rings not plastic after market. 

The brakes work like new and has rear air shocks. The car drives like a new and starts every time. It is getting about 18 mpg on average. As I said great car just hate to start changing things on it for the condition it is in.

 

I would rather sit on it for another 10 years than cut it up like most of the Malibu's you see for sale on eBay, they are missing the heating and air units, interiors missing panels and they call them hot rods.

The Malibu is clean enough to put an ls2 engine with 4l60 trans and hook up the ac, cruise and be a very nice car or sell for 25k easily.

 

The Malibu has a hidden hitch that is not visible from the back comes with receiver and ball, it does have air shocks on rear and the frame is solid no rust (see pictures).
also has a Jensen CD player that works good has remote with removable face.
 
The rear end gear ratio appears to be 3:08 I checked it with rear jacked up in the air and counted number of revolution on wheel and drive shaft.
Car is being sold as is and it is listed locally in the paper so please don't get upset if its gone before you know it.

please ask any and all question before you bid and end of auction you can call or text Tony 
661-857-0860

I will help on my end coordinating with shipper, the shipping cost is all on the buyer to cover.
 
Thank you.

It won't be long now before Nissan Leaf finally overtakes Chevy Volt

Thu, Dec 25 2014

The two best-selling plug-in vehicles ever are the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. When the two vehicles launched in late 2010, the plug-in hybrid Volt quickly outpaced the all-electric Leaf and, despite lots of ups and downs since then, continues to hold on to a cumulative sales lead. This will change in 2015. Cumulatively, from November 2010 through November 2014, the Volt sold 71,867 units while the Leaf trails with 69,220. That's a difference of just 2,647. Based on current trends (with the Leaf selling around 2,500-2,700 a month and the Volt at 1,500-1,700) we expect the Leaf to take over either in January or, more likely, February when the Leaf takes over as the most popular plug-in car in America. Perhaps even March, depending on how low the numbers are for January and February, which are always slow sales months in the US. Of course, once it takes the crown, the Leaf can't expect to easily hold on for long. A new Volt is coming in the second half of 2015, likely beating a new Leaf to market. The question is, then, how well the Chevy sells with all of its new bells and whistles. Do you think the Volt will be the comeback kid once the 2016 model becomes available?

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.

GM cutting back on powertrain warranty citing lack of interest

Thu, Mar 12 2015

Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.
