 1984 Monte Carlo SS Supercharged 350

    This is a 1984 Monte Carlo SS with a supercharged 350 capable of 1000+ horsepower!   The car has a fiberglass 6 in. cowl hood.  I changed the interior from the original blue to black.  The seats were re-covered in the original type material.  The dash was covered with a black factory style dash cover.  It looks just like the original except for the color.  The front suspension was rebuilt with new polyurethane bushings and new springs.  I have a set of 2in. drop spindles for it, but it drives so good that I decided not to put them on.  The engine is an aftermarket GM block.  It has a Callies rotating assembly with forged blower pistons. The heads are dart pro 1's.  The supercharger is a Weiand 6-71 topped with 2 Holley 750 vacuum secondary blower carbs.  It has a boost referenced MSD programmable distributer.  The distributer comes with a cable to hook to a laptop and the software to tune it with. The supercharger is set at 12% underdriven.  On the 12% underdriven street tune it was dynoed at 500hp.  With the supercharger pulleys swapped around to the race tune it made 1100hp on 12% overdriven.  Swapping the pulleys around requires the use of race fuel, re-jetting the carbs, and lowering the timing.  On the street tune you can fill it up with 87 octane and drive it anywhere without any sign of problems.  The transmission is a built turbo 350 with a 5000 stall converter.  It has a set of BFG T/A drag radials on the back pushed by a set of 308 gears.  This old Monte is a surprisingly good street car with plenty of get up and go when you want it. 

    You read the good, now for the minor defects.  The headliner is sagging some.  The speedometer recently quit working.  I believe it is a speedometer cable.  The cable is an easy fix on this car, I just have not had the time to do it.  The paint is fresh but was never wet sanded and buffed.  It was never a big enough concern to me.  The car looks great like it is, but if you want an absolutely show quality car it would need to be color sanded and buffed.  The air-conditioner compressor and condenser are in the trunk of the car.  It doesn't have a radio.  Who needs a radio when you have the whine of a blower to sing to you!   Other than those few things the car is AMAZING.  It rides and drives like a new car. 

    The engine in this car cost over $16,000.  I have the reserve set at $10,000 .  I just have too many cars and I need to get rid of a couple of them.  This car is the lowest on the totem pole for me, so here it is for sale.

Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?

Wed, Mar 9 2016

You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names

Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady

Mon, Nov 3 2014

Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
