Thanks for checking out this cool ride offered by M.E.S. Motorsports; where our cars are notorious for Making Everyone Stare! What we have for sale here is a super solid and original 1970 Chevelle Malibu. This has been a southern car(per previous owner) and is virtually rust free, very clean and runs nicely. This is a great car to drive to the local shows just the way it is or great platform for an LS swap or SS clone.

History – We picked this Chevelle up from a local collector that was needing to make some room in his garage.

Drivetrain – This Chevelle retains the numbers matching 350 V8 that has a newer Edelbrock carb on it. We just went through it and put in a new cam, lifters, seals, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fresh fluids etc.  Motor runs excellent and fires right up even after sitting for several days. The smooth running motor is paired with a TH350 transmission that has just been gone through and serviced by Advanced Transmissions here in town. Car is equipped with 12 bolt rear end. New Flowmaster exhaust give this setup a nice rumble cruising down the road. Factory power steering and power drum brakes make this car easy to drive.  Starter was just rebuilt as well. The odometer states 12k and some change but am sure that's not original as the odometer has stopped working. Overall this is an excellent driving car to just get it, turn the key and go!

Exterior – The car was painted by the previous owner and is presentable to drive around but could stand a repaint to take this car to the next level. Its a single stage paint that appears was never cut or block sanded before paint. The body is straight with no apparent rust and would require little prep work to be repainted from what we can tell. All body panels appear to be original. As with any car this age, I always assume that there is some filler or bondo even if only minor. However, we see no signs of anything major on this car. Vinyl top is in excellent shape with little to no signs of wear. Chrome bumpers look new. Glass is excellent. Grill has been blacked out and looks really cool.

Underneath - Solid is what comes to mind with this one. Floors, frame, the whole underside of the car is solid. It has not been coated or sprayed and we left it that way so that you could really see how nice it is. Took plenty of pictures.

Interior – The interior is very clean and well kept. Black bench seats, Newer black carpet, aftermarket steering wheel, am/fm cassette with 2 6x9's in the rear deck lid. All interior panels are very nice and the dash is perfect. Windshield wipers work nicely. Factory AC car with everything still under the hood. Compressor clicks on but doesn't blow cold. May need Freon. Heat works great.

Suspension - Stock with no known modifications.

Wheel/Tires – New 15" Torque Thrusts II's with like new rubber give this one the right stance! Front tires are Kumho 225/60R15 and the rears are Hankook Ventus 275/60R15.

Known issues – Some paint bubbling on the hood and a tiny amount on the rear deck. Some minor overspray here and there. Windshield wiper motor cover has damage. Drivers headrest is torn and there is some wear on the drivers door armrest pad. Speedometer light and dome light are not currently working. AC doesn't blow cold, believe it needs freon. When the blower motor is turned to high is stops working but works great on every other setting.

Title - Clean and clear "open" title.

About us - M.E.S. Motorsports, LLC was founded and started by myself and my best friend of almost 30 years now. While M.E.S. was “officially” put into action around 2012, it really started back in the 90’s during our high school days. Even back then we were in each other’s garage every weekend working on our cars. We have always shared the same enthusiasm for that one thing…..Automobiles!  Hot rods, classics, customs, sports cars, fast cars, loud cars, basically anything with 4 wheels and an engine. For as long as I can remember we’ve always enjoyed “playing” with cars and recently decided to share our passion and creativity with others and thus M.E.S. Motorsports, LLC was officially launched . At this time we are not licensed car dealers but rather auto enthusiasts with a passion for buying and selling cars to and from other auto enthusiasts and collectors.  Our goal is to sell cars that you can actually get into and drive anywhere!  We believe that cars are actually meant to be driven on the road and not just stored. A lot of the cars that we find are from individuals who are simply not using them anymore or that started restoring them but never finished. Some cars may just need some cleaning and a tune up while other may need paint or finish work. Whatever the case is, we try to address any issues and get them road worthy. We hate to see any car just sitting, rotting or not being used. We believe that everyone out there should have the car of their dreams and that they should be able to drive it anywhere they want to go!

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai

What car should James Robertson buy to drive his famous 21-mile commute?

Thu, Feb 5 2015

The Internet has been abuzz this week with the story of Detroit resident James Robertson, the 56-year-old factory worker who has walked some 21 miles to work for the last 10 years. The Detroit Free Press brought Robertson's story to the fore, helping an online fundraising campaign to generate more than $275,000 (as of this writing). The original goal was just $5,000, or about enough to replace the used Honda that died on Robertson back in 2005, and left him walking. So, newly flush with funds, what's the perfect car for Robertson to buy? Let's look at the specifics of his situation, and try to pick out the best options. Here's what we know: Robertson's commute is (famously) 21 miles; he lives in downtown Detroit (for now) and seems pretty humble, so something very flashy is probably out; former Honda aside, his ties to the city (and statements about being a Ford fan) seem to indicate a Detroit Three company product is best; he's a single guy with a girlfriend; he's got to deal with Michigan weather, and the sometimes fickle snow removal processes in The D. Here are some choices: Ford F-150 Robertson is on record as being a Taurus fan, and after a decade of walking I've no doubt that the big sedan would offer a cozy respite. Still, as a car guy and a student of the industry, I'd have a hard time recommending a sedan so clearly in need of replacement. Especially when The Blue Oval has such great stuff within the rest of its roster. The 2015 F-150 seems almost perfect for Robertson. Opting for either of the new EcoBoost V6 engines should help keep fuel bills in reasonable check, while healthy ride height and four-wheel drive will get him to work on time even during the snowiest of snow days. Better still, with a fat options sheet and car-like ride quality, Robertson can have just about every amenity he might want, in a package that won't disrespect his blue-collar roots. Chevrolet Colorado You guys saw this one coming, right? The smaller footprint of the midsize Chevy pickup, relative to some of the other options here, should be an advantage for urban parking and driving. And again, 4x4 is an option for the nasty weather, the running costs should stay pretty low and there aren't many tech/luxury features that can't be had in-cabin. I'd go ahead and splash out on the Crew Cab bodystyle, too, just in case Robertson feels like starting a carpool.
