I bought this car as a project for my son and I to work on. The list of problems grew and he just wanted a driver, so I will be looking to sell. For those looking to make a 3rd generation Monte Carlo SS the way they want it, I have for sale a nice original Monte Carlo SS that needs an engine. The car does run, but engine is bad, knocking badly, starts, idles and runs like it did new, original 305 carburated . Was stored in the Illinois area for two years before I purchased it. It had issues, but I took it to a shop and had dents fixed and a few other spots fixed and had the car painted the original White for this model, and put the SS stripe kit on. This car has the original everything on it, the T-Tops are Creative Custom's. I had to replace the windshield, radiator, water pump, a couple of belts, new wires and plugs, and the reason motor was bad where it had sat, the oil return holes in the heads plugged up and the engine starved for oil, result, bad engine now. This is a White with Maroon interior car, console bucket seats. All options on car including under hood light and trunk opener and light. The radio has been replace with an after market Pioneer, that plays. The transmission shifts great as it should and I believe it to have been recently overhauled. I bought this car as a project for my son, but it just keeps having issues I can't fix anymore, getting older, and no place and equipment to do the work. I worked in auto dealers and garages for awhile. These car always needed a 350 engine or larger in it to make it the Muscle car Chevrolet should have built, now is the opportunity and chance to make it one. If you have an engine, I have the car. I am only trying to recoup part of my expenses on this knowing I'll never get what I've put in it. Please don't bid unless you are serious, and like I said, it needs an engine so you will have to make arrangement to pick it up when funds are paid in full. I have the clear title in hand, no, I can sell this myself thank you, and if I don't, I'll get around to making it into my ride. I live in Ravenswood WV 26164, so you can figure the distance to travel. I also reserve the right to remove listing if sold locally. Last of the great Monte Carlos that were considered muscle cars.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
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.
Suzuki recalls 2 million cars globally
Wed, Apr 22 2015Suzuki is recalling two million vehicles across the globe, including a number of Chevrolet Cruze sedans that it builds for General Motors, because the ignition switches may begin to smoke. None of the Cruzes being recalled were sold in the US, though. This recall is limited to the Japanese, European and Australian markets. In Suzuki's home market, 1,873,000 vehicles are being recalled, including the Cruze and a number kei cars built for Mazda (the Carol and AZ-Wagon), as well as the automaker's own Alto, Wagon R and Swift. Affected vehicles were built between 1998 and 2009. The remaining 133,000 vehicles include Cruzes and other Suzuki products sold in Europe and Australia. There have been no reports of injuries or accidents due to the 67 reported incidents, all of which come from the Japanese market, a Suzuki spokesperson told Automotive News. Related Video:
