1967 Chevelle Malibu "ss" Clone on 2040-cars
Bayside, New York, United States
Here in this listing I have a 1967 Chevelle SS clone. It came out beautiful. I don't have the time to enjoy and I am moving soon so something has to go as I don't have storage for all my cars. This car was a good foundation when I started. It has a great chassis with no repairs ever. It has it's original floors still intact and not rotted out. No holes or rust. All it's original panels are still in place. The trunk looks great with no rust or holes. No signs of previous repair. The body on this car was very straight and no major rust anywhere. Almost everything on this car was restored or is brand new. Starting with the inside out. The interior is completely brand new. The seats were all redone. All the interior panels are brand new. The dash is all new. Carpet is new. All trim and handles are brand new. The only thing not new is the headliner which is original. It is ok but should be done at some point. It's not hanging just has a few nicks and small tears here and there but is all there and clean. Sun-visors were replaced and are new. There is a new glove box liner also installed. The original radio is still there and in place. No aftermarket radio or holes cut. I am not too sure and will check but I think the radio is not working. All the window are in perfect shape with no cracks or chips. They all rolls up and down as they should. The window laces (felts)were all replaced. The interior light works as it should. The wipers work the way they should. All the lights, brake lights, blinkers etc.... Work the way they should. The horn works. So now for the outside. The car has a brand new paint job. It was done with a two stage system by PPG. Base coat, clear coat. It has 4 layers of white and 4 coats of clear. It looks and shines beautiful. No imperfections no rust, no dents. All the body lines line up and look great. The doors all close good with no dropping or sagging. The outside door handles and locks are all new. The trunk lid lines up perfect and closes great. The trunk has a new rubber seal installed. The hood is the only panel not original it was replaced with an SS hood and trim. It's looks great and is a great addition to the car. Both bumpers are brand new. The parking lights are new and the rear tail lights lens and trim are all new. All trim and molding on the outside of the car are brand new. Everything is new!! The front grille and headlight grilles are all new. There wasn't a penny spared on this resto. All the emblems are new and look great. The only ones I didn't put on are the SS emblems on the front and back. I didn't put them on because they all say 396 below and I don't want to represent the car as a big block because its NOT. The motor is an older rebuilt 327 motor rebuilt by the previous owner. I dressed the motor and it looks great. I installed a new Edelbrock 4bbl manifold and a good Holley carb. I installed a new MSD HEI distributor and got rid of the points. It has a new alternator. New battery. New plugs and wires. Fresh oil and filters. Runs great. My honest plan for this car was to replace this motor and put in a 396 Big Block and a 4 speed trans. That would make this car perfect and make it worth a lot of money. The car has 4 new shocks installed. The brakes are all new from front to back. New brake hardware and new wheel cylinders, new drums. Also has a new master cylinder. There is a brand new exhaust from front to back. Basically everything is brand new on the car. I am sure the new owner will put there own little touches on it to make it there own. The car runs and drives with no issues. Temp runs cool and no overheating issues ever. Radiator and system were flushed. New thermostat was installed as well as all new hoses. Good Luck and Happy bidding! |

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index
Mon, Oct 10 2016While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.
Chevy Bolt wins 2017 Green Car of the Year
Thu, Nov 17 2016We knew that a plug-in vehicle was going to win the 2017 Green Car of the Year award this year, given that all five finalists have a way to charge up. And when Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, announced the winner – the 2017 Chevy Bolt EV – he said that the car itself represents one of those times in the auto industry when everything is about to change. Similar to the invention of the starter motor, things are about to get different. For now, though, the fact that the Bolt EV won an award sounds like the same old thing all over again. Just this week, it was named Motor Trends Car of the Year and to the Car And Driver Top 10 list. The other four finalists for Green Car of the Year included the Toyota Prius Prime, the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Optima (including hybrid and plug-in hybrid models) and the BMW 330e iPerformance. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt. Did Green Car Journal make the right selection this year? See the award ceremony below.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
