Unfortunately, the other "buyers" didn't materialize, so I'm forced to re-list it. I've dramatically reduced the reserve and will take BEST OFFERS this time around. The car is worth more than I am asking for the Buy It Now, I just am out of time to close the deal. My loss, your gain. So, ask questions and good luck! ================================================= The time may have come to part with my baby. We're looking at moving and as much as it pains me to say, the down payment on the new house is sitting in my garage. :-( So, with that said... The car is a 1965 Chevelle Malibu SS tribute w/ a fully dressed .60 over 350 full hydraulic roller small block, Holley 650 double pumper, MSD Electronic Ignition, with complete NOS system (not yet plumbed) that puts a TON of hp to the ground, A/C, P/S, P/B, automatic transmission, lowered 3", custom made trunk enclosure, custom hidden stereo installation, very nice interior. We take the car to shows all the time and it gets PLENTY of attention. It'll melt the tires and turn heads. The car is pure mean in PPG Triple Black and dropped on black chrome rims. I've had the car for about 7 years now I guess. Over the years, we've done a lot to the car mechanically, cosmetically, etc. I'm going to try to be as complete, transparent, and honest as possible. I've bought and sold enough cars online to know it can be a difficult process. My eBay rating should speak for itself. The motor was freshly built a few years back and used since as an occasional weekend cruiser and show car, couldn't have more than a couple of thousand miles on it MAX (odometer no workie). The transmission (Turbo 400) also was freshly built when the motor was installed. The Details - system by system:
The car runs like a top, shifts perfectly, BIG power to the ground, sounds incredible, turns heads everywhere we go. The Issues: - the paint job isn't awe-inspiring. The paint used was TOP OF THE LINE (I have some left and will send), but unfortunately the guy that applied it wasn't a craftsman. The prep and the application itself wasn't superior, so it shows. I'ts done in single stage PPG Triple Black (really deep black). Once it was done, they wet sanded it to try to get it right. It helped a LOT, but unfortunately, they did rub through on a couple of edges (edges are always much thinner in paint, so it's easy to do). There are some very fine scratches left by the process in a few places that could likely be buffed out. There are a couple of bubbles (driver's side quarter and rear deck filler panel) where the paint has some adhesion issues. Ultimately, the car looks great from 10' and going down the road, but sitting at a show for inspection by a critical eye, there are issues to be addressed. - there are a few issues with the bodywork that still could be addressed. We did 95+% of the sheet metal work over the last handful of years (new quarters, trunk filler panel, door skins, etc). The floor pans are solid but the driver's side front has a little rust. The trunk floor is a little rusty with a some holes (but completely hidden by the custom enclosure). Under the driver's side drip rail is some metal work that could be done (small patch that should be filled up and painted). You can't see it unless you lean down under and look for it. There was a patch panel welded onto the driver's side door front edge. Again, the prep on it was poor so the edge of the panel cracked through the the paint a bit. - a couple of small seam separations in the front seat (NOT tears..these can easily be stitched closed). - the front and rear windshield trim isn't great. The front probably should be replaced. The rear isn't too bad, just needs to be re installed more tightly. - the doors close like the heavy beasts they are. The driver's door sags a little so you have to be firm when closing it. I would have no concern (and regularly do all of this) about putting the car on the road for a local cruise of the area, jumping on the highway to do 80 (or more ;-) to get somewhere, showing it off in a show/cruise night, or taking up to the speedway to run the 1/4. I encourage you to come see it if you are serious. It doesn't disappoint. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally. |

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too
Wed, Jul 23 2014The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.
