1967 Chevelle Malibu , 2 Door hardtop. 396 Big Block bored .060 over to a 408. Turbo 400 trans, 12 bolt posi rear end with 3.55 gears. Front disc, rear drum power brakes, PS. Black vinyl bucket seats in front, rear benchseat in good to fair condition.
I have owned this car for 15 years, was driven daily for 2 or 3 years. Since then has been driven occasionally and stored in the garage, always. Body is straight as an arrow, paint is 16 or 17 years old with chips and 3 areas where the clearcoat is starting to peel. Engine starts right up with help of Edelbrock electric fuel pump. Has an Edelbrock 750 single pumper carburetor on it now, I have an older Holley 780 double pumper that needs to be rebuilt that will go with the car. This thing is fast and sounds even faster (especially with the 780 Holley on it). Has a Comp 280H cam in it now, lopey idle and great throttle response. Engine was built by previous owner out of Santa Maria, CA. I was told when I purchased it has forged internals. He had multiple Chevelle's and this was a drag project of his (fuel cell and battery are located in the trunk). Honestly I haven't done much to it other that store it, change the oil, batteries etc over the years. Married with kids now and haven't enough time to devote to the Chevelle.
Things that will need to be done:
Moderate interior work: headliner, dashpad, seat belts, replace door panels and various trim/emblems etc
Suspension : Bushings, ball joints, tie rods old and worn out, front shocks are removed
Electrical : Wiring harness is old and has many "extra" wires that someone has spliced into or removed items with loose wiring left over. Headlights, dashlights, taillights work.
Brakes: Recently the brake proportioning valve drips occationally, its $39 new.
Misc : All weather stripping needed, doors and trunk rattle when driving. Windshield wiper motor removed.
Message me if you have any other pictures you would like, I can take them and email them to you.
Overall this is a solid car, I have been very honest about everything, it is drivable however I would strongly recommend that whoever purchases it, trailers it home.
Cash or Cashier's check only.
Shipping to be responsibility of the buyer, I will not ship the car until funds have cleared my bank (up to 7 days).

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt CarPlay video, Tesla Supercharger importance
Fri, Feb 5 2016A video demonstrates Apple CarPlay on the touch display in the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. The Volt's eight-inch (bigger than an iPad Mini) capacitive display is capable of putting Siri and your iPhone apps and right at your fingertips. It's "the best CarPlay display I've seen," says the user in the video. In case you're not in the market for a new Volt, 9to5Mac offers some of its favorite aftermarket CarPlay screens. See the video above, and read more at 9to5Mac. A single Supercharger can make a big difference in the life of a Tesla owner. Teslarati's Electric Jen talks about purchasing a Model S, being assured by both Tesla employees and the map of planned Supercharger sites that one would be built along an important route for her. With the construction being pushed back, it made visiting family tricky. "As if owning such a grand car isn't embarrassing enough, asking for a ride to drop off and pick up said car because you can't make it home without charging really made me feel awkward," she says. "You see, one single charging location can mean the world to some people," Jen adds. Read the whole article at Teslarati. Tesla once had considered creating mobile range extender trailers for the Model S. Elon Musk touched upon the abandoned idea during his visit to Paris. While Tesla ultimately dismissed the concept, Nomadic Power has taken the opportunity to hitch their product onto the Tesla brand. "We are delighted, that Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk is thinking about a concept like ours for even more extending the range of the Tesla models," says Nomadic Power's CEO Manfred Baumgaertner. He adds, "This confirms our approach to build a long distance mobility provider for all electric vehicles on the market." If you say so, Baumgaertner.

When the batteries have degraded to the point that they're no longer suitable for use on the road, they still have a significant capacity that can be used for other purposes. Still useful for stationary storage, they can be used to support charging sites in order to allow for faster charging. The stationary batteries can charge slowly at the site, but then offer up the juice in a hurry when it's needed for a vehicle. Read more from Renault.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem
Wed, Mar 9 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.
