For your consideration is my Monte Carlo that is in excellent condition, inside and out. Two owners, first my sister, then myself. Always garage kept, never smoked in. Back seats have never been sat in. The finish outside still looks new, and is original, and the interior, leather, and carpet is perfect as well. This car was babied. Back seats fold down to load skis, or long items when necessary.

Original sticker price, shown in photo with all options, is $21,019.00. Please review all of the options which are many. 

My sister drove the car for the first 80,000 miles, and I have driven the remainder since 9/9/2003, which is is 36,000 miles, or about 3,600 miles a year, since I am retired. Of course the car was always well maintained, and even the passenger seat is rarely used. The car rides smooth, and quiet. Steering is right on.  Don't let the miles scare you, my neighbors Chevy just turned over 200,000 with only problems with the starter. (Because he bought refurbished starters). 

The moon roof has two functions, one to flip up in the back as a vent, or to completely slide away under the car roof. Unfortunately, it doesn't slide back, may need a belt replacement, or track adjustment, but the lift function is fine. Air conditioning can be cooler, probably needs a can of coolant. Gas gauge is not accurate.

I have recently added new tires, (2 Michelins) a new battery, and has an aftermarket security system. However, this aftermarket security may need some attention, batteries in the keychain, etc. the Chevy security system built into the key, and ignition is fine. Frankly I haven't used it in years.

I will be listing this car in local newspapers, bulletin boards as well. I reserve the right to pull the listing for any reason at any time, unless a first bid is made. I am sorry, but this is a first come first serve auction. Please use the buy now feature to ensure getting it. I am close to both Philadelphia, and NYC. For those who need it, I do have the original mounting kit for a license plate for the front of the car.

Please ask any questions you like. This will be the third vehicle i have sold in ebay, notice my 100% positive feedback. A full tank of gas will be provided, and State Inspection is also included, If you are a Pennsylvanian.

Thank you for looking.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado

Sat, Oct 9 2021

During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
