This car will need a FULL resto. it's an orig SS 396 with 4spd Red with White stripes and Red interior. The orig frame cracked on both sides behind the front wheel wells and was replaced with a 68 frame. So it now has a 10 bolt posi with 308 gears and a Th400 in it that was in the 68 frame. There are no coolant lines for the trany and the driveshaft is in trunk. The motor Runs Great, no smoke or wierd noises, rebuilt Q-jet, HEI dist new plugs wire's cap and rotor. NO interior don't know what happen to it but it does have the factory mounts for the console and the bucket seats. It has p/s but pump is gone but i have the brackets. it has Power Front disc brakes and i put a rebuilt master on it but didn't bleed the brakes yet and i still have the orig Master (casting number 5468309) and it is stamped with (BA)the SS big Block code on it. It has full 3in exhaust with hooker comp header with 3 1/2in collector. i looked up the casting numbers 3969854 on block and they come up 69-71 396 350hp. the carb numbers 7029207-1494 come up 1969 also but the motor is Not the Orig one. car was last on the road in 1987. it has 72,110mi on it. big block car's tach Redline at 5500 as does this one and the wiring under the dash is Orig and not cut up as if someone put the tach in later. I dont have any documentationon on the car saying it's an SS. The car has been off the road since 1987 and they didn't make many repo parts back then and the SS trim on the dash looks to be Orig. if i had the Doc's i'd be asking alot more. it is what it is. the VIN is 136379G309321 and PLEASE don't email me and tell me a 136 is Not an SS. in 1969 they NO LONGER USED 138 as a code for an SS, do your homework. they were ALL 136's. it will need lower 1/4 panel's and the outter wheel well's on both side's. trunk has one very small spot of rust i used a Yellow grease pen to outline the rust in the pics. both door's have rust in the front bottom corner's i have a good driver's door. Two small rust spots on floor, again outlined in Yellow. One spot about 1in wide by 1 1/2in long in the top front rocker panel under the door. you have to open the right door and look down. It will need lower windshield panel replaced. dent in pass door but i'd replace it cause of rust anyway. lower right front fender was patched will need to be redone Below the bodyline. driver side is good. Hood has no dents or Rot just surface rust. roof just has surface rust and some small dents. Under back seat is rust free. back window looks good too. All the body mounts are rust free. New right hood hinge but no spring. The Grill is from a 68 but i have the 69 Grill.. I had a guy come look at it who has restored alot of 69's he didn't want it because of the lower 1/4's but he said he's 95% sure from what he saw it's an Orig SS. He also said ALL Malibu's had long molding going down from the Eyebrow all the way to the wheel well opening. The SS did not. and there are no holes filled where the Malibu's molding would be. if you look in OPG' catalog page 125 at bottom right of page the Malibu has the long molding SS does Not. Also same as for the back panel of the car. No hole's filled where the Malibu would be on the right side just the SS in the middle. I have to many pics to put up here so email me and i will send you all i have. Any Question let me know. thanks

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big
Fri, Dec 5 2014The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.
