This is a great starter muscle car. I have over $14,000 in this car. Unfortunately I paid $6000 for it, thinking it was in better shape than it was and money issues has halted forward progress. The car had a new convertible top with zip out glass window, new carpeting, new seat coverings, and had the trunk redone and the underside of car cleaned up nicely and painted. The car was in primer hiding some issues with the body.
I have put 2 new rear quarter panels on and purchased an all fiberglass 442 hood, rear spoiler, and 2 new bumpers (rear with exhaust cut outs). I have the original bumpers which are very solid just need re chromed, they have light fixtures and brackets as well. I also have the original hood which appears to be in excellent shape.
The car has had a lot of engine work done. The engine was taken apart and hot tanked, inspected for internal damage. It has a new small cam, electronic ignition, rebuilt Edelbrock 4 barrel carb, rebuilt chromed alternator, new cables and wiring under the hood, new headers and dual exhaust, new disc brakes, new brake and tranny lines, new shocks, new battery, and so much more.
The car has original window sticker with all the added options. It has 350 rocket engine with the 350 Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission, power steering, power windows, and power front disc brakes. It runs and sounds great!
It has a bracket for air conditioning, but no compressor. It needs wiring work under dash, one hydraulic cylinder for convertible top needs replaced or repaired, need interior door panels, need front inner wheel liners, both lower fender panels should be replaced, and probably a lot of other minor repairs. The trunk lid and passenger door skin needs repaired or replaced, I was going to replace, but I believe can be repaired. I have a lot of parts not on the car, new rear light housing and lenses, chrome parts, and etc.
This is an awesome car, just needs a new owner to finish the job. If you have any questions, need more pictures, or want to check it out let me know.
Thanks
Larry

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant
Wed, 18 Jun 2014If you have a need to relive the 1970s, then here is the vehicle for you. This groovy blast from the past is a 1976 GMC Motorhome currently for auction in Florida on eBay Motors, and it is one green machine - just not in the modern sense.
The seller claims that this beast has had just two owners and has covered a mere 61,308 miles in its decades on the road. It's reportedly never been restored or repainted and comes with all of the necessary books and manuals. A 7.5-liter (455-cubic-inch) Oldsmobile V8 with a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission powering the front wheels propels this far-out RV, and the double set of rear wheels out back use a self-leveling air suspension to provide a cushy ride.
The purported low miles and good condition really make this GMC a stand out, though. The exterior combination of lime stripes and beige with just a touch of green is like nothing else on the road today. Plus, the polished bumpers and wheels make it all pop. Inside, it's even better with monochromatic green upholstery and shag carpet. It features everything you'd ever need on a long trip, including a bathroom, kitchenette and lots of seating. The only hint of modernization is an HD TV next to the stove, but its size is a perfect fit for the hole there.
This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
