Up for sale is my restored, National show winning 1970 Monte Carlo by Chevrolet. This particular Monte Carlo was built in the Flint, Michigan plant. Having said that, there are no build sheets since that plant had strict rules when it came to placing build sheets in vehicles. I found this out from the vice president of the First Generation Monte Carlo Club. Something else that makes this car unique, is the fact 1970 was the first year for the Monte Carlo. You will be hard pressed to find a first generation Monte Carlo in this condition. I am open to certain trades **No Motorcycles**, and my price is negotiable. This Monte Carlo is a factory A/C car but is not hooked up since it was not built to be a daily driven car. Along with the car comes the owners manual in A-1 shape, the 1970 Chevy Manufacturer's Specs in a 3 ring binder, the original 1970 Monte Carlo dealer sales brochure, and a bunch of Hot Wheels 1970 Monte Carlos that are still in the packaging and are painted just like mine. Don't miss out on an opportunity to own a true 70s muscle car, ready for the car cruise season. I have all the reciepts for the work I had done since I have owned it. This car can be driven anywhere, as I took it to Carlisle June 22-24th and put 500 miles on it in one weekend, with zero problems. I have noticed that it may need a new oil pan gasket since the one on it is cork and has started to leak a little. I didn't put the cork one on, and since I don't have access to a lift yet I haven't changed it out. I never trailer this car but when I take it on long trips I do cover the front with blue painter's tape to prevent stone chips as much as possible. (Blue painter's tape doesn't leave a sticky residue) I currently have a PA Antique plate on the car which can go with it.

The last few pictures of the car are from 1990 when it was purchased from the original owner and 1999 when it was painted a second time with the racing stripes. I also have a ton more pictures of the restoration. If you want to see them please contact me and I will email them over. This Monte Carlo was originally white.

** Recently displayed at the 2013 Autorama World of Wheels in Pittsburgh PA. Recieved an ISCA (International Show Car Association) award in my class as well as the ISCA "Rising Star" award.
** Drove it 500 miles in one weekend to the All GM Nationals in Carlisle, PA. I received and Award of Excellence in my class (70-72 Monte Carlo stock)
** Featured on the front cover and article write up in the National Monte Carlo Owners Association magazine

Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers

Wed, Aug 14 2024

Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.

GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues

Fri, Feb 27 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module.

In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
