They are still out there..... Barn finds, original drivers. This one is an original driver. Needs restoration of course, but it's a car you can drive to work & restore it on your driveway or in the garage. I bought it about four months ago intending to do just that, but i experienced some health problems & i need to let it go.
 139 k miles, 45 years, & it looks like it's had a lot of care. Quadrajet on a 327, engine numbers match, turbo 350 transmission, power windows, tilt wheel, a/c (updated to 134a), power steering, power brakes. It runs great, shifts good, no rattles, noises or diving or jerking. The engine is pretty much noisesless, no lifter rattle, but it does smoke now, a condition i'm attributing to the car sitting for four months. It didn't smoke when i bought it & drove it about six miles. I'm thinking it need valve seals replaced. Oh yes, it does have the double hump castings on the heads.
 As you can see, although it does have some surface rusting on the right front fender & around the the rear glass frame, it is remarkably rust free.  Floorpans & everything underneath is rust free, also. Looks like it had a repaint of original color twenty or thirty years ago. There is body damage to the tops of the rear fenders i tried to bring out in the pix, not serious, but it probably brought about the repaint when it was repaired. At this point bondo is chipping & flaking off these areas. I consider it not serious taking into account this car will most certainly receive a new paint job at some point with it's new owner. The interior is all original, but it is sunbaked & the fabric on the seats is deteriorating & crumbling.
 Power windows work fine, & aside from the crumbly interior, it's a real joy to drive. Starts easy, (gotta pump it ), has plenty of power, does not overheat. One more thing, it has the original owners manual & protect o plate "credit card".
 Now for the business stuff. $500 is due within 48 hrs of the end of auction, & balance will be wired to my bank account. Or you can show up with the balance in cash & a flatbed truck & i'll give you the car & the clear title. Absolutely no cashiers checks. Transport & delivery is the responsibility of the buyer. If you would like to talk in person, contact me through the ebay message system & i'll send my cel phone number.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

Mon, Apr 13 2015

The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.
