I have my ALL  ORIGINAL 1972 Caprice up for sale! I call this car "Papa Smurf" because of the original Blue w/White Vinyl Top color combination. I will start off by saying this is the car that you hear about people finding in barns, but never get lucky enough to find yourself until now!! I purchased this beautiful car from the original family that have owned this car since 1972, and bought brand new. I happened to be at the right place at the right time is the only reason I was lucky enough to get this car. I have the original dealer plate certificate/vehicle warranty to support what I'm saying'. I also have the original owners manual along with a 1972 Chevrolet Caprice/Impala options catalog. This car also has the original sun visors with complete instructions on how to start the car in hot or cold weather conditions, and I have never seen that on any of my other Chevrolets. I have owned several 70's model Caprice/Impalas, and this is by far the most beautiful, complete, and original one that I have ever had the pleasure of owning. This car had one re-paint back in 1990 to the original color, but it looks like it was just painted because this car has been garage kept since 1972! I also want to say that the car has been in storage every since I have owned it as you can see in the pics. This really was a lil ol' lady's car because that is who purchased and drove the car for the main majority of it's existance until she sadly passed away, and left it to her son which who sold it to me. He appeared to be in his late 60's to early 70's, by the way. This car comes with the 6.6L 402 Big Block which did not come standard with the car, and was a special order for the year so you are getting a rare Caprice. The 402 is basically a factory hotrod engine that started out as a 396 Big Block that was bored 0.30 over at the factory over making it a very powerful and strong 402 Big Block! The  transmission is a 350 Turbo Hydra-matic that shifts again around 70 m.p.h. This big thing just floats down the highway like a brand new car with lots of power when you need it! This car is missing NOTHING, and everything works. It has all the chrome trim, interior pieces, engine components, and even has the carpeted trunk w/ ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE and JACK! This is a numbers matching car that makes a huge difference to the collectors. This car is also equipped with the 4 Seasons Air Conditioning that's been already converted to R134, and works great. All new weather stripping has just been installed around the windows and doors making it air tight inside the car which makes a big difference as far as outside noise, and outside temperature getting in. Like I said this car is ALL ORIGINAL even down to the Original 8 Track Player that STILL WORKS. With this car you are getting something that's in it's pure form, and has not been stepped on by anyone! The engine has just been serviced with a detailed checkup and a fresh oil change. The car also has all new hoses under the hood. This car also already has rear air shocks installed. The exhaust leaks water when engine is running. If you know anything about cars then you know when a car leaks water that means the engine is running very cool and right. This car has a new master cylinder as well as a new radiator that was installed recently. Even the muffler that was replaced was replaced with an oem muffler instead of an aftermarket muffler to keep the car original. The seats are near perfect with the exception of the driver's seat having minor rips due to wear and tear with it being a 41 year old car. The rest of the seats are in excellent condition especially the back seat because it looks like nobody has ever sat in it. The headliner, sun tray, and dashboard(no cracks) are all in excellent shape! Even the woodgrain trim that's usually faded in these old cars is excellent, and the cigarette lighter still works after all these years. All the chrome is beautiful on the car with no rust, and it has the Deluxe Bumpers that come standard on the Caprice, but not on the Impala. The fuel guage works,and is very accurate due to the new fuel sending unit that's in the tank The car also has a new fuel pump. The Original White Vinyl top is also in excellent shape with no tears. The body is laser straight and has never had any bondo! The hood, trunk, and doors all shut as they did when the car was new and all line up with no gaps between the different body panels. Just look closely at the pics to see what I mean. This car is almost in showroom condition, and I personally have not seen none nicer in person. Whether you want to purchase this car to drive as is, or put the oversized wheels, and loud speakers in it you have a good start for either way. These old cars are becoming extinct like the dinosaurs, and to find one in this shape is very rare, and especially a 2 door hardtop! I have nothing to hide which is why I didn't cover up my license plate like other people, and I will say that the car does have very minor surface rust over the rear fender skirt on the driver's side, but no holes and NOT coming through the paint. If I wouldn't have told you then you probably would have never noticed.  I have been all over the internet looking at these cars for sale, and you are not gonna find one like this one that's in it's all original NUMBERS MATCHING condition for under 20k NOWHERE, so my Buy It Now price is a steal!! I'm sure you can find a 1972 cheaper, but by the time you hunt down and pay for all the missing parts, bodywork, and mechanical issues you are gonna wish you bought this one in the first place. If you want junk then I can't help you, but if you want a beautiful original  classic then here you go! .I realize that I will probably not find another 1972 Caprice in this shape that's affordable again, but my loss is your gain. You really have to see and drive this car in person to really appreciate the true beauty of it. I reserve the right to end this listing early due to the car being advertised locally also. Thanks for viewing my car/listing, and Happy Bidding!!

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 13 2016

AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head

Fri, Jan 30 2015

"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:

Chevrolet Malibu could last until 2024 before joining the dodo

Wed, Jul 31 2019

Automotive News pieced together all available intel on the Chevrolet and GMC lineups, trying to ascertain how much life each model might have left. Concerning the Chevrolet Malibu, the answer is not too much, and the historic nameplate's final years don't look like the glory kind. After a major overhaul in 2016 boosted sales for the ninth-generation sedan to 227,881 units, the 2018 sales fell to 144,542, and this year's are down almost 15% through the end of June. The Malibu is one of two Chevrolet sedans still breathing - the other being the Impala for now - but only for about five more years. AN says there'll likely be a refresh in 2022, followed by a visit from the Reaper in 2024. After that, it could be "indirectly replaced" by an electric vehicle, one of the 23 EVs that GM is working on for 2023.     The Impala will meet the ax earlier despite a recent stay of execution. Production is still set to close in January 2020. In the entire GM stable, Cadillac might soon be the only marque with sedans. The Buick LaCrosse has a date with death, and Groupe PSA won't supply Opels-as-Regals forever.  The Sonic hatchback should say goodbye at the end of 2020, a year before the seemingly eternal Spark is thought to die. Two years after that, according to one report, the Camaro will go back into cold storage, perhaps forever, and AN says an "expected redesign of the car in 2021 was reportedly canceled." Finally, let's give one final shout-out to the Chevrolet Cruze, a global nameplate, which in the United States alone outsells the Malibu, outsold the Camaro by a factor of three last year, and absolutely trounces the Impala, Sonic, and Spark. Even that couldn't get a stay of execution. In more uplifting news, everything's happening on the crossover and truck side in the next few years. The Chevy Bolt is due for a refresh next year, even though it has "become more important for self-driving ride-hailing fleets that GM Cruise plans to operate than for consumers." In 2021, the Bolt-based crossover should bow, first in China, then here. It's said to look like "a mix of the Bolt and Trax" in spy shots. Still waiting for a green light: a possible subcompact GMC crossover called Granite that might make it to market by 2023. The full-sized SUV triplets Tahoe, Suburban, and Yukon could show their new faces in 2020. The Silverado might get an updated interior in 2020 or 2021, while the Colorado and Canyon mid-sized pickups won't get attention until perhaps 2023.
