1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo on 2040-cars
Macclesfield, North Carolina, United States
Rare first year 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo. It has gold paint with a black top. I am the 3rd owner
of the car. It was purchased by a lady that had it for many years before passing away. It was then purchased by a
friend of mine. I watched him use it as a daily driver and I couldn't let him abuse this beauty anymore so I bought
it and put it in the garage. It's got only roughly 67500 original miles. It's a 400 small block engine. I've
replaced all tires, the brakes, head gaskets, battery, wiring, struts, muffler, and starter that can remember (
since I don't drive the car very often the first start takes a minute). It had a transmission flush and some
general work done. I have replaced the speakers and put a CD player with 3.5 jack in the glove compartment. I've
replaced the front right light bezel and the rims. I have had some carbonator work done but it could use more. I
have replaced the dash and head board lamps and bezels along with the visors, knobs, headrests, and re-detailed the
dashboard. I've had the locks redone as well as started fixing the air condition but it still needs a new hose.
There is some minor rust residue in the wheel wells and some minor bubbling in a couple of places under the canvas
top. There are no tears or rips on the top canvas or in the interior. Car runs pretty good but I don't drive her
enough and hence looking for a good home. I keep her on a trickle charger most of the time. Cosmetic things that I replaced I made sure they fit a 1970 Monte Carlo. Interior is black with a wood grain dash. Car is a automatic. There isn't any
major body damage and to my knowledge all original. All in all a great example off this classic.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow
Thu, 14 Feb 2013After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
