1984 Monte Carlo Ss Very Nice Driver 70619 Miles on 2040-cars
Vanceburg, Kentucky, United States
|
I bought this car on eBay a few years ago. The first part of the description is what the previous owner wrote
and I have found it accurate. 1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS. Runs and drives good (currently driven everyday and has current NC tags and inspection). Previous owner has swapped out the 305/3-speed combo for a 350/overdrive automatic (200R). Smoke-free. Also has a new tweed headliner and matching visors (previous owner had started to restore). Front end is lowered with drop spindles, rear springs are cut. Ball joints and bushings where replaced when the work was done. Wheels are stock, but in good shape. Power steering. Front disc brakes. Has optional 3.42 rear gears. Aftermarket gauges for H2O, Oil and volt. Fresh rebuild on the engine (approx 3000 mi). Engine has pop-up Keith Blacks, polished dual plane aluminum intake, and Holley carb. Dual Flowmasters. Battery is new and radiator was replaced when the engine was changed. AC compressor has been removed and I don't know the condition/function of the rest of the system. Cruise control does not work. Electric door locks were still, so I've unhooked the solenoids so they work manually. Note: A few people have questioned the validity of the car being a true SS. It is and the title verifies that. In 1984 the bench seat and column shift was an option for the SS and about 15% of the SS’s sold were like that. What I have done to the car: I have changed the oil and driven it approximately 1000 miles since purchase. I have added chrome valve covers and new chrome air breather. I didn’t like the tires so the front ones are new. All new interior upholstery New carpet New window felts New power window motors New outside door handles New door seals New trunk seal New door hinge kits New paint New Z28 style cowl hood scoop No cruise No air conditioning No power door locks When I got the car it had very little rust. The lip at the bottom of the trunk lid was the worst. That was repaired and water access was stopped. I drive the car to work a couple days a week in the summer on nice days. The paint looks good from a few feet out but is not perfect. It has a few medium sized runs that are noticeable on close inspection. It has never failed to start and run for me. It runs pretty strong for a big car. I believe the mileage to be accurate at 70619 currently. The car has a couple of fluid leaks. They are not bad enough that I have to check the fluids every time I drive it but they will spot the floor when it’s parked. I think one is the power steering unit and the other I’m not sure about. There are a couple of small cracks in the dash and the instrument cluster panel needs some attention. I know there are some things I am forgetting so if you are interested in this car please ask questions or even better, come see it. This is not a show car but it would be the perfect candidate for making one. It is as solid of a 1984 car your likely to find. The photos will show the car on the trailer the day I bought it and a few others of it now. |

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
Outrageous Thor24 semi truck to appear in the new season of 'Jay Leno's Garage'
Tue, Apr 28 2020Wednesday is Jay Leno's birthday, and CNBC used the occasion to announce the upcoming season of Jay Leno's Garage. In a new teaser video, Leno is seen with a stacked list of guests, some new, some repeats, as well as a wild gamut of vehicles, including the absolutely insane 24-cylinder, 3,424-horsepower Thor24. The outrageous semi build, which sold at auction in Saudi Arabia earlier this year for a whopping $12 million (or $1 million per supercharger) will join the likes of the Tesla Cybertruck and a recliner on wheels on the upcoming season of Jay's series. Thor24 View 24 Photos The formula for Jay Leno's Garage is simple, successful, and not changing anytime soon. He brings out a bunch of famous people, some of which are real enthusiasts, others who have more casual driving backgrounds, and they experience a vehicle together. In the short clip released by CNBC, Leno is accompanied by Elon Musk (again), Danny Trejo, Bill Burr, Tim Allen, Jon Hamm, Brad Garrett, Jeff Dunham, Kelly Clarkson, Matt LeBlanc, Blake Shelton, Norm MacDonald, Edd China, and Jon Lovitz.      View this post on Instagram          Thank you for sharing your dream with us. Happy Birthday, Jay! Love always, your @cnbcprime Family. A post shared by Jay Leno's Garage (@jaylenosgarage) on Apr 28, 2020 at 8:27am PDT The people, however, are merely social lubricants to spotlight the real stars of the show, the cars. This season will include the Tesla Cybertruck, the record-breaking Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, a 1965 Buick Riviera, a naked cat car, an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, a Porsche Taycan, a modern Ford GT, a Chevrolet Corvette C8 hard-top convertible, amphicars, a snail car, a beetle car, a couch car, and the 24-cylinder, 12-supercharger, 3,424-horsepower Thor24 semi. Just to name a few. As usual, there will be racing, stunts, spinouts, smoke from both tires and engines, and lots of silly dad jokes. Season 5 of Jay Leno's Garage debuts on CNBC on May 20 at 10 p.m. ET.

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
