THE CAR IS UNMOLESTED WITH 283 POWER PACK,POWER STEERING, TREDLE VAC POWER BRAKES, AUTOMATIC POWERGLIDE TRANSMISSION, TINTED GLASS, RADIO, POWER ANTENNA, CARPET, DELUXE INTERIOR AND I'M SURE I'VE MISSED A FEW ITEMS. THIS CAR IS ORIGINAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE PAINT. I BOUGHT THIS CAR TO MAKE INTO A NICE DAILY DRIVER BUT AN UNEXPECTED FINANCIAL OPPORTUNITY HAS COME UP AND I NEED TO RAISE SOME QUICK CASH. I'LL BE SELLING A FEW OTHER CARS FROM MY SMALL COLLECTION AS WELL.

THE STORY I WAS TOLD WAS THAT A REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION TOOK PLACE AND THIS CAR WAS DISCOVERED IN NORTH FLORIDA IN A BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE 1972 AND THE 75000 MILES SHOWING IS LIKELY CORRECT BUT I CAN'T SWEAR TO IT. THE LICENSE PLATE ON THE CAR IS ALSO 1972 WHICH AGREES WITH THE FLORIDA INSPECTION STICKER FROM THAT SAME YEAR. THIS CAR NEEDS COMPLETE RESTORATION. THE FLOOR PANS ARE WEAK AND THE FRAME IS SOLID. I'VE TAKEN GOOD PICTURES IN ORDER TO HELP DETERMINE WHAT IT WILL TAKE TO BRING THIS OLD GIRL BACK. THE WORST RUST IS IN THE TRUNK LEFT SIDE WHERE THE BUILDING LEAKED AND WATER LAID IN THE COMPARTMENT. THE TRUNK LID IS SHOT AND NEEDS REPLACING. THE TRUNK HAS WHAT LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL SPARE WITH THE ORIGINAL JACK, BASE, AND WING NUT HOLDING IT IN PLACE. I HAVEN'T TRIED TO SPIN THE ENGINE OVER BUT I WILL FILL THE CYLINDERS WITH MARVEL MYSTERY OIL AND GIVE IT A TRY IN A FEW DAYS. I DIDN'T GET A TITLE,JUST A BILL OF SALE. A STORAGE TITLE IS $250-$350. I DON'T RECOMMEND BUYING FROM PICTURES SO COME ON DOWN TO SUNNY FLORIDA AND CHECK THIS BEAUTY OUT OR SEND SOMEONE YOU TRUST TO DO IT FOR YOU. CALL ME AT 772-201-1905 WITH QUESTIONS IN CASE I'VE LEFT SOMETHING OUT THAT IS IMPORTANT. TIRE KICKERS AND LOW BALLERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME AND ALL OFFERS AND TRADES WILL BE CHEERFULLY CONSIDERED NO MATTER HOW RIDICULOUS. THANKS FOR LOOKING, GOOD LUCK BIDDING AND GOD BLESS.    772-201-1905 TILL 11PM EASTERN TIME. STEVE

I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL THIS CAR TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER. I TRIED TO DROP THE RESERVE COMPLETELY BUT EBAY WILL NOT ALLOW IT. THE BID AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING IS $6100. I REDUCED THE RESERVE TO $6125 SO THE VERY NEXT BID MEETS THE RESERVE AND THE CAR GOES TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER NO MATTER THE PRICE. THANKS TO ALL THE BIDDERS.Steve

2015 Chevy Spark will have lighter, smaller battery

Thu, May 15 2014

As General Motors gets ready to release the 2015 Chevy Spark EV, it is retooling the Brownstown Battery Assembly to build a new battery system for the chirpy little electric car. The new Spark will lose a few pounds and kWh from its lithium-ion pack, but it will keep all of it's performance specs. The current Spark EV uses a 21-kWh lithium-ion battery pack with bits made by A123 Systems (known as B456 Systems during bankruptcy). For the 2015 model, GM is going to build a 19-kWh battery system in-house that will use 192 LG Chem cells. Losing a bit of energy capacity means that the battery system for the 2015 Spark EV will be 86 pounds lighter but it will keep the EPA-rated 82-mile range and 119 MPGe. The 2015 Spark EV also keeps its $26,685 (plus destination) starting price from the 2014 model. The car will once again qualify for a federal tax credit of up to $7,500. LG Chem also supplies the cells for GM's other plug-in vehicles from its facility in Western Michigan. The Brownstown production line currently builds the battery packs for the Chevy Volt, the Opel Ampera and the Cadillac ELR. You can read our first drive of the 2014 Chevy Spark here. Brownstown Battery Assembly Expands Capabilities Will build battery system for 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV 2014-05-14 DETROIT – General Motors will bring all its electric vehicle battery building capabilities in-house with production of battery systems for the 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV at its battery assembly plant in Brownstown, Mich. "Using our in-house engineering and manufacturing expertise enabled us to deliver a battery system that is more efficient and lighter than the 2014 Spark EV without sacrificing range," said Larry Nitz, executive director of GM global transmission and electrification engineering. "Our successful working relationship with LG Chem has allowed us to deliver a new battery system for the Spark EV that helps us to better leverage our economies of scale." A newly designed battery system features an overall storage capacity of 19 kWh and uses 192 lithium ion cells. The cells are produced at LG Chem's plant in Holland, Mich. The battery system weight of 474 lbs. is 86 pounds lighter than the system in the 2014 Spark EV. The Spark EV battery is built on a dedicated production line at Brownstown, which also manufactures complete battery packs for the Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera and Cadillac ELR.

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction

Sat, Sep 9 2023

Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
