1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Base Hardtop 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Sacramento, California, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo with a salvage title, it has a salvage title due to overdue registration fees, not because of any accidents…I purchased this vehicle in 1991 from Fairfield Auto Sales which at that time the registration was 10 years overdue. I could not believe how en-tacked the vehicle was and it had all its original parts. The original owner pass away some time before that and the wife no longer wanted the responsibilities of the vehicle! This vehicle is absolutely ready for any car enthusiast, 90 percent of what you see in the pictures were redone 19 years ago…I have replaced and installed a brand new edelbrock carburetor but still needs a choke cable which is installed but not connected, the way I start the vehicle is with a few drops of gas in the carburetor until the fuel filter is full, most of the time it only takes one time depending on how long it been from the last run, she's very cold blooded. The brakes pads and shoes are in great shape, new gas tank, brake booster and master cylinder! The body and frame are in great condition ready for a body off restoration I have all the emblems for this vehicle plus the emblem which says built in Misle Chevrolet, the motor and transmission was rebuilt in 1993. The paint job is 20 years old and is the only material on the car, it was stripped to bare metal...it does show some wear and tear, chips, scratches a few dings so on, the trunk, rear panel was stripped to bare metal recently and is ready for paint, the front and rear window tracks were strip and painted and glass reinstalled, floor is free of rust, there is so much to list, so I tried to capture what I could, if you would like more pictures send me an email. I can add all the days this Monte Carlo sat it equates to almost 15 years! Feel free to ask any questions…registration paid til March 2014...Happy bidding! *****I've been quoted between $1200 to $1700 to Kempsey, New York***** *****Please communicate and let me know of any issue before you bid and win, don't waste your time or mine, Thank you!***** |

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Chevrolet Turbo Sprint
Sun, Feb 6 2022Fifteen years ago, I wrote my first-ever automotive article under the name Murilee Martin, and it didn't take me long to start writing about one of my favorite automotive subjects: the junkyard. Before I'd refined my system for documenting discarded vehicles, however, I shot a lot of boneyard photos that never got used. For today's Junkyard Gem, I have four shots from early 2007 of one of the rarest turbocharged machines of the 1980s: the Chevrolet Turbo Sprint. The Chevrolet Sprint was really a rebadged Suzuki Cultus, from the pre-Geo era when General Motors sold the Isuzu Gemini as the Chevrolet Spectrum, the Daewoo LeMans as the Pontiac LeMans and the Toyota Corolla as the Chevrolet Nova (soon enough, the Spectrum became a Geo, and the Nova became the Prizm). The second-generation Cultus appeared in 1988, becoming the Geo Metro on our shores the following year. The Turbo Sprint was available for just the last two years of the Sprint's 1985-1988 American sales run, and it appears that just a couple of thousand were sold; if I'd known at the time just how rare they were, I'd have shot more photos of this one at the now-defunct Hayward Pick Your Part. The turbocharged 993cc three-cylinder produced 70 horsepower, 22 better than the naturally-aspirated version. Since the Turbo Sprint weighed just 1,620 pounds (that's about 500 pounds lighter than a barely more powerful '22 Mitsusbishi Mirage), it was plenty of fun to drive. For 1988, the regular Sprint hatchback cost $6,380 while the Turbo Sprint listed at $8,240 (that's about $15,375 and $19,855 today, respectively). Believe it or not, a Turbo Sprint actually raced in the 24 Hours of Lemons 10 years ago, though it didn't end well. This ad is for the regular Cultus, not the Cultus Turbo, but the screaming guitars sound reasonably turbocharged. For the most part, Chevy Sprint marketing was all about cheap purchase price and stingy fuel economy… at a time when gasoline prices were cratering. Related Video:
Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
