1981 Chevy Malibu
We, at Finish Line Auto Restorations, specialize in the procurement and restorations of American Muscle Cars.
This Malibu is owned by a customer of ours who asked us to sell for him as he does not have storage space for it any more and he is not very computer literate.
The car has been sitting for about a year but fired up and ran fine after some tinkering. There is old gas in it and the tank should be drained and new fuel put in.
I drove the car about 20 miles and it runs and drives fine.
The car is fairly solid and the paint is decent. There are a couple of small spots where the clear coat faded and a couple of small bubbles.
The trunk is pretty solid.
There is a turbo 350 tranny with a shift kit in the car that chirps second gear and works fine.
The motor is a NOM Chevy small block that runs well. No smoke or funny noises and plenty of power.
The car needs an exhaust system, it's fairly loud and the pipes are hanging a little low.
The tires are radial T/A's all around with decent tread.
Interior needs some work or a nice seat cover.
There is a remote locking system for the doors and a popper for the trunk.
Fiberglass hood with pins.
Power Steering and Brakes.
Please ask all questions or come and inspect the car before you bid. After you win the auction is not the time to decide if you want the car or not. These auctions cost money and time and I am doing this as a favor for a customer.
I will have someone available to assist in case you want to send a shipper for the car once you have won.
This is a no reserve auction so, if someone does not offer me a ridiculously large amount of money, the high bidder will own it.
Good luck.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
