Overall the car is in great condition. The vehicle underwent a basic restoration in 2010. The following was done to the vehicle:

1. Had SBC 350 rebuilt and bored out .060. 2-step up cam installed during rebuild.

2. New rebuilt 200R4 transmission with appropriate cross member.

3. Edelbrock carb, intake, fuel pump, and water pump installed.

4. New power steering pump, AC, steering gearbox, master cylinder,

5. New brake and fuel lines.

6. Installed like-new complete dash.

7. New carpet and seat covers, interior trim and panels dyed black.

8. New paint and rhino-type liner in bed.

9. Removed bumpers and installed roll pan.

10. Custom tail gate with license plate bracket removed.

11. New cowl front hood.

12. All new bushings, tie rods, u-joints, etc, brakes, etc.

13. New grill and light bezels

14. New weatherstripping for doors and windows

15. Flowmaster Exhaust (I believe Super 40) dumped before rear axle.

16. Rear End from 1985 Monte SS (3.73 I think, non-posi as I was led to believe it was).

17. 205/75R15 Coopers on front, 275/60R15 Tiger Paws on rear. Great Tread.

18. Vintage looking American Racing wheels.

19. Tinted windows (not pictured).

I am positive there is more not listed here...

In a nutshell, car was stripped down to bare body on frame (frame was never removed although all frame mounts and bushings were replaced).

Essentially all components are new or rebuilt, and all suspension parts were either sand blasted and repainted or replaced and painted.

There is very little to this car that hasn't been replaced in the engine compartment (radiator, coolant reservoir, washer fluid reservoir,

wiper motor....these are original and what I can think of right now).

Although this car is in excellent shape, there are a couple items that could be better:

1. Small ding on left rear quarter above wheel well. Hardly noticeable unless you know it is there,

2. Small indention on front right of hood (pushed a little hard in closing it, and in the wrong place)

3. A couple minor chips on front bumper (it has been driven...maybe 200 miles since restoration)

4. A couple interior trim piece are screwed in from outside (couldn't locate clips at the time).

5. Some dings are chrome around bed (have replacement chrome for this for all except tailgate and rear corners that would be included).

6. Seat covers were low quality...can easily be replaced.

7. Transmission fluid cover leaks slightly and occasionally. I am told this is common and that a 700R4 pan would fix.

This car runs and rides great...and is definitely loud. And is definitely an attention-getter that only needs a little minor work to make show ready.

Thanks for looking and bidding! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Payment by bank wire also accepted.

THIS CAR IS ALSO BEING SOLD LOCALLY AND THE LISTING COULD BE REMOVED AT ANY TIME.

Recharge Wrap-up: Batty battery covers, Mercedes at Silvretta, new Hyundai Sonata Hybrid available in 2015

Tue, Jul 8 2014

Apparently, Chevrolet Volt battery covers make suitable homes for bats. As part of an Eagle Scout project, Matthew Netherland created 30 bat houses out of scrapped Volt battery covers donated by Chevy. 22 of the bat houses will be set up near hydroelectric dams in Michigan. Each bat house will accommodate 100 bats, and divert the scrapped materials from the landfill. The battery covers also make great nesting boxes for wood ducks, which General Motors has previously set up at its Milford, Michigan Proving Ground. Last weekend was the Silvretta E-Auto Rally, which saw emissions-free vehicles cross the Montafon Mountains in Austria, including cars from Mercedes-Benz. These cars included the B-Class Electric Drive, B-Class F-Cell, SLS AMG Electric Drive and even the Smart Fortwo Electric Drive. Also on hand for the Silvretta Classic Rally was a V8-powered C111, a 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC and 300 SL Roadster. Read more in the press release, below. BMW has finalized pricing for the i8 in the US at $135,700 (plus $925 in destination charges). In addition to the base price tag, which we've known for a while, BMW Blog has the complete pricing guide with options and packages. Most of the i8 orders were the Pure Impulse World package, which includes various aesthetic upgrades. It also provides membership to the BMW i Pure Impulse Program, which allows you to "to enjoy innovative ideas and trends in a variety of areas, including home styling, culture, gourmet gastronomy, design and many more." Head over to BMW Blog for more information. The new generation of the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid will arrive later than the rest of the model lineup, confirms Car and Driver. While the gas-powered Sonatas get updated now for the 2015 model year, the Hybrid remains unchanged until late this year or early 2015, when it will arrive as a 2016 model. Hyundai is offering a 2015 Sonata Eco edition, but with 28 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg highway (32 combined), it's not quite as appealing as the current Sonata Hybrid's 36/40/38 figures. Read more here. In June, average US fuel economy was 25.5 miles per gallon, making it the fifth straight month above 25 mpg, according to University of Michigan. The average window sticker ratings from vehicles sold in June dropped slightly from 25.6 mpg in May. The year started at 24.9 mpg in January, and hasn't dropped below 25 mpg since.

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems

Fri, Sep 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:
