United States
|
1972 Chevy Monte Carlo Running and driving 1972 Monte Carlo. Has a built 5.7 Liter sbc 350 cid. Competition race cam, headers, edelbrock intake, 4 bbl carter carburetor, HEI Borg Warner distributor. New Radiator, water pump, fuel pump, fan belt, spark plugs/wires, torque convertor, and drive shaft. I feel like I’m forgetting a few things. Anyway, just changed oil, transmission oil, set advanced timing, and put in an under dash kill switch. Just had transmission rebuilt and shifts smooth and right on time. Also, installed new kickdown cable. Duel glass pack exhaust, sounds like a beast…if you don’t like your neighbors start when they’re sleeping. Factory options/features, A/C blows, Power Brakes (brakes are good, no problems stopping)front disc brakes, power steering (steers easy and straight, no alignment problems). All gauges work, (Fuel, temp, generator/alternator, brake). Clock doesn’t work. But, it does have a Sony X-Plod CD/WMA/MP3 player w/ remote that does have a clock. Accompanied by two 3-way Pioneer 6x9 speakers. Rally Wheels w/trim rings on all four, hankook white wall tires all the way around with around 90% tread life on them, and a full rally wheel spare in the trunk. Also has a shift kit installed. Also put in dual truck air horns, once again if you don’t like your neighbors sound the horn. The interior is in amazing shape all seats are in excellent condition, door panels are in excellent condition, head liner is perfect, floor boards are solid and carpet is in excellent condition. There is a crack on the dash driver side (pictured), and a small tear just under passenger side rear quarter glass (pictured). That is all. All glass is good no cracks, all windows work. The body is straight but there are just a few dings here and there absolutely nothing major at all, a little surface rust under rear windshield. If you know these cars you know most of them have had this at one point or another. Because of the design of car (pictured). It is where water and moisture collect because of shape of rear windshield, this is a California car, no snow, no salted roads, no rust anywhere else. Trunk floor is solid. Rockers solid. Quarters and fenders solid. It has a 20 foot paint job, meaning it looksgood from 20 feet. There are some chips here and there, but it still shows very well. This is a very clean and very cool1st generation Monte Carlo. It runs and drives and stops without a problem, it has never been chopped, cut , or lowered. There has been a lot of time money and effort put into this beauty, but it is still honest to coming off the line in 1972. It just needs someone to take it the last 5-10%. I also have it listed locally and may end auction early if sold. Clear title, up-to-date registration. Drive this car home if want. Please don’t make an offer if you aren’t really going to buy it, do your research on shipping costs to your location from Los Angeles, California. Happy bidding! |

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
EcoCar3 will convert Camaro to bitchin' eco rides
Sat, Apr 26 2014In the 47-year-history of the Chevrolet Camaro, there have been countless college-age kids spending a ton of time getting under the hood and souping 'em up. Now, General Motors is adding a twist to the concept by donating 16 Camaros for the EcoCar challenge that puts university teams together to wring out better fuel-efficiency out of various vehicles. No word on whether there will be donuts on anyone's lawn, as suggested by 80's punks the Dead Milkmen, but the idea's never a bad one. EcoCar3 will feature 16 teams such as Arizona State, Penn State, Ontario's University of Waterloo and, of course, Detroit's Wayne State University. They'll spend the next four years "[reducing] environmental impact, while maintaining the muscle and performance expected from this iconic American car," as the EcoCar organizers say. The goal is to maintain body design and safety standards while boosting efficiency and lowering emissions, but the actual process is far more complicated than that description suggests. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Bosch are among the sponsors of the contest, which is also put on by the US Department of Energy and managed by Argonne National Laboratory. Penn State won Year Two of the three-year EcoCar 2 competition with its E85 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle converted out of a Chevy Malibu. The grand-prize winner of EcoCar2 will be announced in June. Check out the EcoCar3 website and see the announcement video below for more details. This content is hosted by a third party.
