2006 Chevy Monte Carlo – LOW RESERVE of $5999 – Strong 3.9L V6 Engine – 131K Miles – Many New Parts – For Questions/Info Call Chris @ (812)-621-1274

 

Description: 

Great car – runs and drives well.  I am selling because I want to get a small, four-door vehicle, otherwise I would keep it.  I am the second owner; traded in my previous vehicle for this Monte Carlo during 2009.  Never wrecked.  All maintenance receipts available upon request.  Car comes with lots of new parts which just need installed (see description/pictures below).

 

The Good: 

New spark plugs in 2013.  Transmission rebuilt in 2013 by Edwards Transmission in Indianapolis, IN.  Tires are at 60%-70%.  Automatic start installed and works great.  Power windows, power locks and power front driver’s seat work great. AM/FM/CD player sounds awesome.  Tinted windows look great.  Steering wheel radio controls work well.  Cruise control works great.  Adjustable steering wheel.  Spare tire and jack included.   

 

The Bad: 

 

ABS and Traction Control idiot lights recently came on; however, both ABS and Traction Control do work fine to my knowledge – I do not notice any difference in performance and it tracks and drives great.  At my last service my mechanic said that in the near future it will need new wheel bearings and new tie rods on front.   Some surface rust around wheels on the quarter panels (see pictures).  Small dent on driver’s side (see picture).  Oil pan gasket currently leaks, however I am including a new oil pan gasket with the car (see picture), it just needs installed.  Needs a break job; however, new rotors are included (see picture) all that is needed is installation.  Right muffler has already been replaced due to rust hole, but left muffler needs replaced – a new muffler is included with purchase (see picture) it just needs installed.  Horn does not work.

 

Payment/Transaction Info:

Will not accept bids from zero/poor feedback bidders. Transaction must be completed within 7 days of auction’s end. Payment via PayPal preferred.  Cash or check in person at a Chase bank in Indianapolis, IN during business hours for verification also accepted.  If traveling by air to pick up the car I can pick you up from IND airport.

GM re-recalls 11k SUVs

Tue, Oct 13 2015

General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
