We have a 1965 chevy corvair corsa 140 for auction, the car was found in a barn, was purchased by a guy at an auction with the hopes of restoring it, but as time would tell the car sat in his garage, then driveway for years until he no longer wanted the car. We found it sitting, not being started in about 5 years. We towed the car back to the garage and began the process. The car was red, with the clear coat (repaint) coming off the car in pieces. We sanded the entire car for prep with the idea to repaint it back to red, but after the car was primed, in black, we decided that it looked awesome! So we painted it a matte black, as you see. The motor was then gone thru, replacing gaskets and such. We rebuilt the factory carbs, and replaced anything that they needed to work properly. The starter was replaced, and the wiring was redone. The plugs, coil, cap, rotor, and points were replaced. The factory fuel pump didnt work, so we replaced it with an electric one on it. Cleaned the gas tank and replaced the lines, putting a inline filter on it. We redid the brakes, replacing the brake hoses, pads, and front wheel cylinders. We proceeded to try to start the car, after a couple cranks it came to life, a quick adjustment of all 4 carbs, and it was running good. The car has the 4 speed transmission which shifts nicely, and clutch feels good. Car now runs and stops good, drives straight down the road and feels like it should. The interior of the car was in decent shape, we cleaned it up really good, replacing the carpet, (floor pans are good on this car), the seats do have a few tears in them, nothing terrible tho, and looks fine as a driver. Everything works on the car, turn signals, headlights, dome lights, trunk light, and engine bay light. It is fun to drive and turns heads. Took it to a car show on the first day it was done and got most aggressive looking corvair. The rims are a 14 inch american racing wheel with new tires.   Now for the bad, as every car has unless you do a nut and bolt restore on them.... The front pan on the car has rusted away somewhat, and needs replaced or serious repair. The driverside fender has some cancer, which also is repairable fairly easy (we just have to much going right now and need to move it) , the trunk had a small hole, but it has been repaired with metal and looks ok. Thats about all the bad. The car is a great driver and starts everytime with no issues, its fun to drive, and everybody wants to talk about it. This a NO RESERVE auction, so winner takes all, starting low, way lower than we even have in the car. Ask questions!! The money is due within 3 days of auction or a deposit of 500.00 thru paypal if longer. Pick up with in 7 days, unless agreed upon before bid. Cash on pick up is perfered. Delivery by us can be arranged within 5 hours for a fee.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

Ram 1500 bests new F-150 in MT pickup shootout

Tue, Nov 25 2014

Ford's 2015 Ford F-150 is a technological tour-de-force, what with its aluminum-intensive construction and its powerful and efficient new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine option. But now that it's hit the market, it's time to get down to brass tacks and find out how just the latest F-150 actually stands up to its rivals in the hyper-competitive fullsize segment. Motor Trend is among the first to round up the Ford (in Lariat 2.7-liter 4X4 guise here) and put it up against the Ram 1500 Outdoorsman EcoDiesel 4x4 and 5.3-liter-equipped Silverado 1500 LTZ Z71 to find out how Dearborn's new-think truck measures up. The test put the trio through over 1,000 miles of tough driving in California and Arizona in a variety of conditions from just cruising around unladen to hauling a trailer. MT found all three trucks to be competent, but the most praise got heaped on the Ram and the Ford, with the Chevrolet falling a step behind its competitors in many tests. Among the Ford's most-liked features was its 2.7-liter, twin-turbo V6 that helped make the F-150 easily the quickest of the group, with some editors saying the engine felt about the same whether driving around with cargo in the bed or not. There was some minor turbo lag during acceleration while trailering, but that issue affected the Ram, too. The Ram's powertrain was lauded, as well. The EcoDiesel was torquey around town, and the 1500's combination of an eight-speed automatic and air suspension was judged to be the best of the lot. It was the most difficult to get into the bed, though. The Ram also won the fuel economy award by netting 20-miles-per-gallon city and 28-mpg highway in the test to beat its Environmental Protection Agency ratings of 19/27. The Ford's EcoBoost managed 17/22, one mpg off each from the EPA numbers, and using a lot of throttle really depleted its efficiency. As MT notes, however, it would take time for the diesel's mileage savings to pay off at the pump for these two trucks. In the end, the Ram just barely eked out the win, with the title partially earned because of "the Ford's unknown maintenance and aluminum repair costs," according to MT.

GM recalls 64k 2011-2013 Volts over carbon monoxide fears, stop sale on Trax and Encore

Thu, Mar 12 2015

General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts from the 2011-2013 model years in the US and an additional 13,937 exported examples because of fears over carbon monoxide buildup. According to a statement, if a Volt is accidentally left on while running on electric power, its internal combustion engine would eventually kick on to charge on the battery. If this happens in an enclosed space, then carbon monoxide can fill the area, leading to a potential exposure to the dangerous gas. According to GM, there have been two injuries reported due to this issue. To fix the problem, there's a software update to limit the time the vehicle can idle. According to Automotive News, GM is also issuing a stop sale on about 2,300 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore. In these compact crossovers, it's possible that the steering column assembly could touch the power steering circuit board and cause damage over time. This could potentially cause the system to stop working. Automotive News indicates that the automaker is still working with the supplier to get the necessary parts to repair this problem. General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts in the U.S. from the 2011-2013 model years to implement a software update that will limit the amount of time a vehicle can be left idling in the "on" or "run" position. If a driver exits the vehicle and inadvertently leaves the vehicle "on" by failing to react to cues and warning chimes emitted by the vehicle, the vehicle's high-voltage battery will drain after a period of time and the gasoline engine will begin to run. If the gas engine runs for a long period of time within an enclosed space, such as a garage, carbon monoxide could build up. GM is aware of two injuries, both related to carbon monoxide build up. The total recall population including Canada and exports is 64,186. Related Video:
