We are proud to offer our beautiful 1969 Chevelle Malibu for sale.

 

We bought this car from a gentleman who owned this car for the last 20 something years.  About 8 years ago, he had the car restored including a rebuild on the original 307 small block and TH350 transmission.  The undercarriage was painted and coated lifting the body off.  The interior was restored and the exterior was painted in the gorgeous Cortez Silver.  This Chevelle appears to be all original with the exception of the correct style bucket seats. 

This is also an A/C car that was recently charged and blows cold.  The greatest thing about this car is it is 100% complete and everything works as it should!  All of the lights, switches, wipers, heater, A/C, engine, transmission are in fantastic working condition!  This car would make an awesome driver or the best start to a hot rod you could ask for!

If you look at my feedback you will notice I have a wonderful reputation for selling and describing high interest cars.  I believe in trying to present the best online evaluation I can to make sure the buyer knows exactly what he is getting and not getting by winning this auction.  Most ads I see on Ebay only list specs on a car and often do not mention anything about the actual condition of the car...run from these.  Here is the car as I see it:

Body:  This appears to be a very original, rust free car with the exception of the driver's side quarter panel at the very rear, lowest part.  This is very common and it is just starting to bubble through the black paint on the underside.  The beauty of this is that it would be a very easy repair if concerned about it as you only need to replace the bottom lip of the rear quarter and would be easy to match the black paint.  This is the only rust I have found in the car.  The battery tray area looks great, inner fender wells, window channels, etc. all look good.  I believe the passenger rear quarter had a small patch at the very bottom with metal when restored.  The body appears very straight and all the gaps line up nicely.  Doors, hood and trunk all open and close like new!  The vinyl top is in great condition and is a rich black in color.  The windshield is in good condition but there is a groove in the glass following the arch of the blades on the driver's side.  This does not block any visibility but is easily replaced if you want to. All of the bumpers and stainless trim are in great condition!

Paint:  This car has very nice paint and I would call it a nice driver quality.  There are a few small scratches that are hard to see in the silver paint unless you are up close.  There is also some very small particles that must have gotten into the paint and then cleared over.  It looks like very small sand or dust particles but these can be found all over the car if you look very closely.  The car is very glossy and the silver coverage is smooth and not blotchy like a lot of silver cars you see.

Interior:  The interior shines in this car.  The dash pad is like new, headliner is like new with working dome light, the carpet is new, the back seat is in fantastic condition and the metal dash his uncut and in terrific condition.  There are a few small scratches on the dash around the glove box that is an easy touch up but worth mentioning.  The driver and passenger bucket seats are in good condition but could use a simple dye touch up where the black has been worn off.  If I were to keep this car I would have the front seats redone with new covers and new foam and you would have a beautiful finished interior!  All of the windows roll up and down nicely and seal well. 

Mechanical:  This has the original 307 small block in it that starts right away, doesn't appear to use any oil or smoke.  It has the original two barrel carburetor with manual choke.  The transmission shifts smooth and well and there are no noticeable noises anywhere.  The brakes are original drum style at all four corners that work well and stop straight!  The rear end is stock with tall highway gears and assume they are original.  I do not believe it is a posi car as it is all original. 

Wheels & Tires: The wheels look like brand new and are the original style S/S Cragars. They even have the older metal caps which is very cool unlike the new plastic versions that peel. The tires are in great condition with 80-90% tread remaining.  This Chevelle cruises down the interstate nicely, tracks straight and does not wander at all.  It drives amazing! 

I have a clean and clear title for this car!

 

As you can see by the photos, this car looks amazing and it is so hard to find these old Chevelles that are complete with everything working.  Run it like it is for a reliable driver to all the car shows or drop in a big block and you have a finished hot rod! Either way you don't have a lot of odds and ends to locate or fix costing you thousands more in your car.  

 

Please contact me through Ebay with any questions before you bid or to get my contact information.  Please only bid if you are serious and intend to complete the transaction.  I also have high definition photos available upon request!  If you have zero feedback please contact me BEFORE you bid.  

 

I can assist with delivery arrangements or can pick up the new buyer at the Boise airport (BOI) and you can drive this home!  It is very reliable!  Any help you need from me to complete this transaction must be approved before you bid or win the auction.  If you are an Idaho resident I must collect 6% in sales tax.  If you are out of state there will be no taxes collected.

 

I am open to trades of equal or greater value so let me know what you have and send me some pictures...just remember the equal or greater value part!

 

Thank you for looking and good luck bidding!

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General 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.

Personal testimonies show real-world effect of plugging in with Chevy Volt

Mon, Jan 13 2014

At this point, there are tens of thousands of individual stories about what it's like to live with a Chevrolet Volt. But it also remains informative to take a look at one of these in depth. For example, one Atlanta-area Volt owner says he's cut his cents-per-mile ownership costs by almost 40 percent compared to his previous car primarily because of his ability to drive almost all the time on electric power. Jeffrey Cohen told Clean Technica that he put about 14,000 miles on his Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid for the year that ended October 2013, and that more than 92 percent of those were on electrons. He estimates his "lifetime" miles per gallon rating at a whopping 384 mpg, a figure pushed upward by the fact that he installed a Level 2 charger at home while his employer added an external 110-volt charger at work. Cohen is spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents in his Infiniti M35. As a result, he's spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents a mile with his prior vehicle, an Infiniti M35. About two-thirds of those Volt costs are for the $349-a-month lease payments, while 15 percent is insurance, 11 percent is for the charger and seven percent for the gas and electricity that actually powers the car. Helping lower that last figure is an overnight electricity rate that's about 10 percent of Cohen's daytime rate. Chevy parent General Motors hopes such testimonies will re-trigger sales for the Volt in 2014. Last year, GM sold 23,094 Volts, down 1.6 percent from 2012. We expect our readers have similar stories they'd like to share in the Comments.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
