1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Up for auction is a very nice '72 Monte Carlo with its original drivetrain. The odometer reads 22,000 and some change. I believe it has 122,000 do to its age and the fact that it is 42 years old. The car has one newer repaint with very solid original panels throughout. The bottom of the doors and door jams are perfect. All body lines are as good as when it came out of the factory. There aren't any dings, dent, or scratches anywhere on the paint. The floor boards are solid and have never been patched as the same for the frame. All the stainless on the car is in great condition. The bumpers have been replaced with new ones do to some staining and discoloration to the originals. The vinal top was replaced do to fading and shrinking in some areas. The interior is all original except for a new carpet and rear package tray. The front bench seat has one small rip on the pipe seam on the driver's side and a small tear on the shoulder part of the passenger side. The dash has one crack in its usual area toward the center speaker. All the guages are in funtional order except for the famous clock. Yes, the factory tachometer works. Sporting its original drive train, this car has the 402 cubic inch, big block V-8, with Turbo 400 automatic transmission, and a 12 bolt non-posi rear end. A previous owner has replaced the factory exhaust manifolds with a set of ceramic coated headers with complete exhaust to the rear tailpipes. Along with that, some of the A/C components have been removed, but are somewhat available if the new owner wants them with the car. (Not sure what posseses people to remove original equipment and never put it back in its place). The engine has been refreshed with new cam & lifters, seals, berrings, and gaskets. It runs excellent, does not smoke, or leak. Same for the transmission. It has been fully rebuilt with a mild shift kit. Shifts smoothly and promptly. Car has the original Rally Wheels with BF Goodrich radial T/A white letter tires. This is a turn key car that you can drive anywhere and for any length of time with no worries. It has a nice smooth ride on the road and is very responsive in every way. Not to forget to mention a real head turner on the road. The car will be sold to the winning bidder in as is/where is condition do the fact that it is 42 years old and does not come with a warranty because it is privately owned. A paypal deposit of $500 will be due within 24 hours from the end of the auction, with the balence do within 7 days from the end of the auction. Buyer will be fully responsible to pick up the vehicle, or arrainge for the vehicle to be picked up.

GM recalling 15k midsize pickups over leaky brakes
Mon, Jun 8 2015General Motors has announced a recall in coordination with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration related to the brakes on the 2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. In the 14,838 units in the United States estimated to be affected, the front brake calipers may be leaking fluid. Needless to say, that could make them less effective, which could hinder the vehicle's ability to stop in time to avoid a collision. The affected units were all manufactured between January 6 and December 24, 2014. The fix seems simple and straightforward enough, with dealers being instructed to inspect the front brake calipers, and replace them if necessary. See below for all the details from NHTSA. RECALL Subject : Brake Fluid Leak Report Receipt Date: MAY 12, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V278000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 14,838 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Chevrolet Colorado, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured January 6, 2014, to December 24, 2014. The affected vehicles may experience the front brake calipers leaking brake fluid. This is due to air pockets, an imperfection in the metal caliper body. CONSEQUENCE: If the vehicle experiences a brake fluid leak it can increase the stopping distance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the front-brake calipers if necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin July 10, 2015. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14888. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair
Fri, Jul 10 2015General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
