Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person. AUCTION MAY BE STOPPED AT ANY TIME.
Vehicle came out of Mass. Previous owner has had the car for quite some time and was slowly restoring it in his garage in his spare time. Recently, vehicle was sanded down to bare metal and repainted professionally, then wetsanded and buffed out. Interior is nearly all new, including door panels, carpet, headliner, seat foam and seat covers. Engine bay was cleaned up and dressed up with some chrome, motor and transmission were tuned, brakes were serviced, new exhaust/mufflers installed, new gas tank installed, etc etc. Overall there have been countless hours spent on this car and it is still not perfect, but a very nice high end driver.
Body is VERY STRAIGHT with excellent original gaps. Doors open and close nicely.
OPTIONS:
Manual steering
Manual drum brakes
AM Radio
14" steel wheels with correct hubcaps wearing whitewall radial tires
Fender skirts
Dual exhaust
Bench seat interior
Under the hood lies a mostly stock factory original 283ci V8 with an upgraded 4bbl. intake and carburetor and a RARE 3 speed manual transmission on the column. Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great along with the nice and throaty dual Flowmaster style exhaust system. Transmission is solid and shifts good without any noises or grinding and clutch is still good. I drive the car about once every other week for short trips around down or every once in a while I'll take it to a cruise night on the highway. It has never let me down and always performs great.
Interior is basically ALL NEW. Seats were redone professionally (new and correct seat foam), NEW carpet all around, NEW door panels, NEW kick panels, NEW headliner (could be tightened up a little more), good dash that has been repainted original red. Overall beautifully presentable for a high end driver.
The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is in VERY GOOD shape throughout, but it is NOT a $20k paintjob, so it will have minor imperfections here and there upon close examination. Body is very straight but does have some filler by lower doors, rockers and lower fenders, while rear lower quarters had metal patch panels installed. Chrome bumpers and outer trim could use upgrading/replacing throughout to bring the car up to the next level (same for inner trim like window cranks, dash trim and smaller pieces like that). Missing: spare/jack, sunvisors, rear seat emblem. Not working: couple of gauges work on/off and not accurate (speedometer needs new cable), may need a bulb or two replaced here and there, radio (not connected), horn. Underside has had some sheetmetal patches by rear floorboards (old floors weren't cut out yet), they are solid but should be redone with stock panels. Trunk floor also has a patch by center section, but very solid. All weatherstripping should be replaced.
So overall she is not perfect and will need some form of TLC depending on how nice you want it to be and what you plan to do with the car. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 50 years old so keep that in mind.
If you just want a GREAT LOOKING TURN-KEY DRIVER then this is the car for you. If you want a show car, it will need some work to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum. For more on the what to expect out of GM's new SUVs, click on the C/D link below.
The Opel GT is the concept General Motors should build for the US
Sat, Feb 27 2016Now is the time. General Motors should double-down on performance cars and build the Opel GT concept that's set to debut next week at the Geneva Motor Show. Better yet, sell it in the United States as the Chevy GT. Consumers are showing a thirst for performance cars not seen in decades. Ford has them coming in waves, with everything from the F-150 Raptor to a hotted-up Fusion. FCA US is unrepentantly building loads of Hellcats. GM should respond. The General's cupboard is hardly bare. With the Corvette, Camaro, and Cadillac's V-Series, GM has more than enough to compete with its crosstown rivals and anything Europe or Japan can throw at it. But there's also an opportunity. There's not many front-mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-seat sports cars out there like the Opel GT concept. A Chevy GT that used that layout and captured some of the concept car's proportions and curves would ignite a different kind of passion in enthusiasts. It would be Miata-like. With Chevy branding, this sports car would be the everyday exotic. The concept has a turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine, which makes about 143 horsepower to motivate a structure that weighs less than 2,200 pounds. It can hit 60 miles per hour in less than eight seconds. All of those numbers are within the front-engined Miata's territory. This new Opel is inspired by two great mid-1960s concepts that helped put its design studio, and that of its sister brand, the British Vauxhall, on the map. (The GT concept is also technically a Vauxhall, as the brands are linked in GM's European strategy.) One of them, the '66 Vauxhall XVR remained a concept. The '65 Opel Experimental GT was on the road by 1968. That shows this is doable. There's precedent. The Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice shared a chassis with a modern GT during that trio's brief run. If GM ever makes this concept, Opel and Vauxhall should get their versions. But Chevy is the one that could make this car a global icon. Chevrolet GT. Make it happen. News & Analysis News: The potential return of the Ford Bronco is generating a ton of attention. Analysis: That's not news, per se. But when the Bronco6G.com fan site did a rendering of a next-generation Bronco, it almost broke the Internet. Everyone from Automotive News to Jalopnik picked up the illustrations. Our own post has drawn a lot of traffic and passionate responses. People are clamoring for the Bronco's return.
