Here we have a genuine, low mile one family owned survivor. I think you would call this Dresden Blue with a blue cloth interior ( that has sunfade and the dash and steering wheel have cracking ), the body has some very minor surface rust -- look at the detail photo of the wheel well -- that was all I could see, while under the hood, anything that wasn't factory painted now has a rust skin on it. The cassette AM/FM stereo was added about 10 years ago along with the 150 watt Alpine amp.The whole car was repainted to factory original color. A new replacement vinyl top was installed, and again to the original color match.

The battery is newer, the exhaust was also renewed and the brakelines also were replaced.

Miles are actual -- the 56,710 is real. I drove the car around a bit and spotted it under the tree for photos -- tried the A/C and radio and the radio plays and sound good, but the A/C will need recharged and/or repaired as it just blows warm air.

Now, please note that this car has a Clear Ohio title...but it has some history too.

IT WAS STOLEN.

THE THIEVES BROKE THE WINDSHIELD AND DAMAGED THE VIN PLATE ( it's not there anymore )

THE CAR WAS RECOVERED

THE VIN WAS CLEARED AND RE-ISSUED BY THE STATE -- it is now tagged on the B pillar...see photo.

It will need tires as there is only 25 to 30 % tread left.

They are off brand P 195 75 R 14 92S M&S

231 V6 Auto

Drivers door needs ( just like all GM cars of this era ) a new set of pin bushings as it sags. My 80 did the same thing and it was a quick $9 fix to change out the plastic sleeves.

OK. NOW THE OFFICIAL STUFF.

I list all autos and parts "AS IS" used condition with no guarantees, wuarantees or promises. It is a used car and is not perfect and definetely NOT A MUSEUM PIECE.

I am only the listing agent and I will require a $500 paypal deposit within 48 hours after auction end and vehicle muse be paid in full within 7 days of sale end. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS PAID IN FULL AND REGISTRATION HAS CHANGED OVER to the new owner, the vehicle may then be removed from the property and its legally yours to enjoy, race, modify or do what you want to it. Convert her to a V8, a roundy round or derby pace car.

You are invited to see the car and try it on for size before the auction is over -- or just email questions and I/we will try and answer all questions.

This is the only thing Monte I have to list, so please don't ask.

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error

Sun, Feb 8 2015

After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.

Chevy Bolt, GM's 200-mile EV, could debut in Detroit

Sat, Jan 10 2015

It's not news that General Motors is working on a $30,000 electric vehicle with a 200-mile range. Then-CEO Dan Akerson said as much back in 2013. What we've heard before is that this mystery EV will be based on the Chevrolet Sonic and will will arrive in 2017. So, if that's all correct, then it would make sense that confirmation of this plan would come at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, which is just around the corner. And lookee here... The Wall Street Journal is reporting that GM will unveil a concept Chevy Bolt at the Detroit show on Monday. That name sure makes sense, too, since GM registered that trademark back in August. According to the Journal, the rumored numbers – 200-mile range, $30,000 price – are still what's expected. Some new purported details are that the battery will come from LG Chem, which also makes the Volt's batteries, and that the Bolt will be a crossover that could be sold around the world. This all smacks of a preemptive strike against the Tesla Model 3, which is also due around 2017. Currently, GM sells the Spark EV in limited areas of the US, despite a lot of excitement for wider availability. To sell a 200-mile EV for $30,000 means that GM and LG Chem will likely have drastically reduced the cost of making a big plug-in vehicle battery. What this means for the new Volt and GM's future plans is something we're more than a little excited about to learn more of on Monday, the same day that we get to see the redesigned Chevy Volt for the first time. Well, aside from the CES teaser. Green Chevrolet Crossover Electric 2015 Detroit Auto Show Chevy Bolt bolt
