Chandler, Arizona, United States

This is a 1968 Chevy Malibu 4 door sedan 307ci/Powerglide - V8, Vin # 136698K100283. Model 136698 - 8 cylinders only 30,772 produced.

 

 

The car is a 2 owner car, driven by an older woman until she passed away. It had been sitting since 2009 until I bought it from

my neighbor who never drove it from his acquisition in 2009. This car is an excellent Survivor Car with 108,300 original miles

and still runs awesome! I drive it from time to time to keep the engine running smoothly. Not one bit of smoke or any oil leaks.

 It could use a good tranny tune up, due to sitting period before I got it. Drive gear slips a little, but I think it just needs a new tranny

 filter and a shift kit installed. It starts and drives like a champ. Low gear and reverse work great no slippage at all.

 

This is also a factory AC car, and the AC Pump is still operational. Just needs recharged and tuned up. AC Clutch engages

when I tested the system. Car has power steering (No Squealing!) pump is perfect. The heater core may need replacing,

but in Arizona who needs a heater! J The tires are in excellent shape still and it still has the original hub caps, & spare tire.

It is missing 1 small piece of trim on the passenger side of the car, but easy to find and replace.

 

NEW PARTS: Parts replaced since I bought the car are as follows: All new belts, Oil filter, new Radiator (Original Owner replaced),

new Sway Bar links and bushings, new starter, new battery and cables, Completely rebuilt brake system (Includes Master Cylinder)

 minus the hubs and brake lines (Did this for safety) including wheel bearings. Turn Signal Unit, Vacuum Canister and Air & Fuel Filters.

 

The paint is an original white (Faded), has a few small dents in the front fenders but nothing to major. I highlight some the body

damage in the photos. As you can see, there are some very small rust areas in the front fenders. This is an Arizona car, so most

of the rust in surface rust spots only. All Pans are in excellent shape!

 

The Interior is all there and completely original, the steering wheel is cracked, but not to bad. The front & back seats are original and surprisingly still firm with no tears or holes, just faded as expected. All belts present. Radio is not functioning right now. (Haven’t checked it out yet probably minor issue) Wipers and lights work great. Heater controls good except for the AC/Heater switch that seems stuck in the Heat position at the moment. No fan yet either. (Again no troubleshooting yet). The headliner is the only truly bad part of the car due to the AZ heat. All windows are excellent and operational. Even the dome is working and intact. Carpet is wore but still good as well, could use a cleaning along with seats.

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise – in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
