This is a beautiful 1974 Coupe De Ville, White over Black Leather. It has black leather seats with a new carpet kit throughout. Even the door panels, which normally show sign of fading, cracking and "elbow wear," are in excellent condition. The dash pad does have a crack in it but I cover it up with a dash mat. Headliner is in excellent condition. It is the "new appearance" of the inside of the car and great paint that will really attract the period conscientious buyer, all items are correct down to the original floormats. I inherited this The engine and transmission are truly mechanically sound. I just had the car tuned with new spark plugs, new wires, pcv valve, a new QuadraJet 750 cfm mechanical choke carburetor with 360 Degree Airfilter. Very recent oil change and filter, all fluids have been topped off and rear end fluid was drained and refilled. The car is in great condition. I chose to do some restoration of parts that would deteriorate with time which included spending money on new front leather interior, carpet kit, new battery, flush condenser and evaporator, replace some hoses, and service the brakes and new wiper blades. The clock is inoperative (very common on these cars but can be exchanged. 80% all original paint with some very minor imperfections here and there (great uncle was an avid golfer so there is a golf ball dent on the roof) but other than that it is good. There is absolutely no rust in the body panels and underneath the car is solid. Electric windows, seats, aerial, wipers. Heater blows toasty and A/C is ice cold. The trip meter sometimes gets stuck but the odometer keeps excellent track of its original 56,787. The stereo system has been swapped out for a AM/FM Radio, MP3, Ipod with USB port. New Sony 6”x9 “ speakers installed professionally on rear deck lid and reupholstered.

How GM's grueling 24-hour test gets the kinks out of its performance cars
Tue, 27 Aug 2013One of the biggest challenges automakers face when designing a high-performance car is making sure that it is both fast and reliable. For General Motors, any car that might be taken to the track by its owner - like the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (shown above) and the Cadillac CTS-V, for example - undergoes a rigorous and strenuous 24-hour test by engineers at the Milford Proving Grounds, as pointed out by Car and Driver.
We've posted on this topic in the past - on a video showing the Camaro ZL1 being brutalized, for instance - but this article gives a more in-depth look at what actually happens behind the scenes... including what that poor ZL1 went through. Though the test isn't for 24 hours straight, the cars are pushed as hard as possible by some of GM's best drivers with only the brakes and tires replaced frequently.
We don't want to ruin the fun for you, but it is an interesting article that tells just some of what GM does to develop its sports cars. Check out the full article over at Car and Driver for the rest of the story.

The taxi association plans to appeal the decision soon. See more in the video below, and read more at The New York Times. A new report from UC Davis claims that a global expansion of public transit could save 1,700 megatons of carbon dioxide yearly and over $100 trillion by 2050. A "high-shift scenario" would be necessary, wherein governments invest in rail and clean buses, expand biking and walking infrastructure and shift focus away from projects that encourage car use. This shift to public transit would especially be important in the US, China and India. Read more in the press release below.
