Up for auction is a beautiful 1986 Monte Carlo SS. It has approximately 31,900 original miles with a completely untouched stock drivetrain. Has current NJ State Inspection until 2016. It has always been garage kept and is in beautiful condition with no rust, no accidents, and no dents or body damage to speak of with the exception of a couple of very small chips, which is normal for an original paint car. The car along the way of it's life has been upgraded with a power moonroof which is fully operational with no problems, window tint, 1 inch cowl hood, 18 inch torque thrust wheels with Hancock tires and a CD player with MP3 and iPod compatibility, upgraded speakers from stock for a nicer sound, and LED headlights. I believe I am the third owner, I purchased the car from a good friend who took care of the car meticulously and always had it garage kept. The drivetrain is completely stock down to the original exhaust, nothing has been done to modify this car in anyway.  The car still rides on its original suspension including shocks and drives beautifully with no rattles or shakes. It is equipped with F41 suspension, G80 differential and the L69 high output 5.0L V-8. The steering is tight, the brakes are strong and the engine is powerful.  The car has a new radiator due to a leak from the original, the cooling system was completely flushed, all belts were replaced using AC Delco parts and the rear differential fluid was replaced with synthetic fluid and a limited slip additive.  The car has been babied its whole life and it shows when you drive it, it feels like a new car.  I had plans to install a LS1 engine and turn it into a street rod but the car is so nice it would be a shame to alter the car in anyway. This is the reason why I am selling it. And also I have no room to store the car properly since it is original paint. Look over the pictures, if you have any questions just email me.  I have all the paperwork from when the car was new and receipts for work that was done throughout the years up until 2014.  Please do not ask for the reserve price.  Also please do not ask how much to end the auction early. If you have an offer just send it to me along with a name and a phone number and we can discuss it.  The original rims, and radio are all available if the winning bidder decides he/she wants them. Car absolutely needs nothing, just a new owner! The car was fully detailed, wet sanded and buffed and looks great. Thanks for looking!  Please look at my feedback on the cars I have sold in the past.  I do not exaggerate, mislead or lie about my cars.  The way I describe them are the way they are.  I buy and sell cars as a hobby, not a business.  I love many different cars, but I am not rich. I need to sell a car to have the next one.   ANYONE WITH LESS THAN 5 FEEDBACKS, THE BID WILL BE RETRACTED.  I HAVE HAD PEOPLE WITH LITTLE TO NO FEEDBACK RUIN AN AUCTION BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW EBAY WORKS.  IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO LIST A CAR ON EBAY TO HAVE SOMEONE RUIN IT.  SORRY, PAST ISSUES HAVE MADE ME CHANGE THE WAY I SELL THINGS ON EBAY, ESPECIALLY A CAR. PLEASE NO THIRD PARTY REPRESENTATIVES!
PLEASE NO LOW BALL OFFERS OR TEST DRIVERS, ONLY SERIOUS BUYERS, DON'T WASTE MY TIME OR YOURS!!!!!!!!!

***IN THE AD IT STATES THAT IT HAS 18 INCH TORQUE THRUST. IT DOESNT! IT HAS THE ORIGINAL WHEELS WITH NEW BF GOODRICH RADIAL T/A's, THANKS,***

The Opel GT is the concept General Motors should build for the US

Sat, Feb 27 2016

Now is the time. General Motors should double-down on performance cars and build the Opel GT concept that's set to debut next week at the Geneva Motor Show. Better yet, sell it in the United States as the Chevy GT. Consumers are showing a thirst for performance cars not seen in decades. Ford has them coming in waves, with everything from the F-150 Raptor to a hotted-up Fusion. FCA US is unrepentantly building loads of Hellcats. GM should respond. The General's cupboard is hardly bare. With the Corvette, Camaro, and Cadillac's V-Series, GM has more than enough to compete with its crosstown rivals and anything Europe or Japan can throw at it. But there's also an opportunity. There's not many front-mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-seat sports cars out there like the Opel GT concept. A Chevy GT that used that layout and captured some of the concept car's proportions and curves would ignite a different kind of passion in enthusiasts. It would be Miata-like. With Chevy branding, this sports car would be the everyday exotic. The concept has a turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine, which makes about 143 horsepower to motivate a structure that weighs less than 2,200 pounds. It can hit 60 miles per hour in less than eight seconds. All of those numbers are within the front-engined Miata's territory. This new Opel is inspired by two great mid-1960s concepts that helped put its design studio, and that of its sister brand, the British Vauxhall, on the map. (The GT concept is also technically a Vauxhall, as the brands are linked in GM's European strategy.) One of them, the '66 Vauxhall XVR remained a concept. The '65 Opel Experimental GT was on the road by 1968. That shows this is doable. There's precedent. The Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice shared a chassis with a modern GT during that trio's brief run. If GM ever makes this concept, Opel and Vauxhall should get their versions. But Chevy is the one that could make this car a global icon. Chevrolet GT. Make it happen. News & Analysis News: The potential return of the Ford Bronco is generating a ton of attention. Analysis: That's not news, per se. But when the Bronco6G.com fan site did a rendering of a next-generation Bronco, it almost broke the Internet. Everyone from Automotive News to Jalopnik picked up the illustrations. Our own post has drawn a lot of traffic and passionate responses. People are clamoring for the Bronco's return.

Buick Encore, Chevy Trax reportedly dead after 2022

Fri, Mar 18 2022

The Buick Encore will not get an encore, and the Chevrolet Trax is dead in its tracks. Separate unverified reports say the two crossovers, which are essentially identical underneath the sheetmetal, will retire at the end of the 2022 model year without being directly replaced. Citing anonymous sources, enthusiast website GM Authority wrote that production of the Encore and the Trax is scheduled to end in the third quarter of 2022. Both models are manufactured in Bupyeong-gu, South Korea, and General Motors will reportedly use the extra production capacity to build more examples of the Trailblazer, which outsold the Encore and the Trax combined by a significant margin in 2021. General Motors hasn't commented on the report, but we wouldn't be surprised if the end is indeed near for the Encore and the Trax. Buick released the Encore for the 2013 model year, and Chevrolet launched the Trax for 2015, but the model made its debut as the Opel Mokka in 2012. It's at the end of its life cycle, and sales figures reflect this: 20,072 units of the Encore were sold in America in 2021, a drop of 52% compared to 2020, while 42,590 examples of the Trax found a home, a 60% decline. It's further proof that Americans don't like small cars. Viewed in that light, the decision not to replace either crossover makes perfect sense. If the report is accurate, the Encore GX (which is not related to the Encore in any way) will enter the 2023 model year as Buick's entry-level model. The situation is a little more complicated at Chevrolet: The pocket-sized Spark is on its way out in 2022 as well, meaning that the Trailblazer will become the entry point into the range. It's a different story in Europe: Opel, which is now part of the Stellantis group, released the second-generation Mokka in June 2020.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
