WOW.....Insanely nice car at this price! I have for sale my 1971 Chevelle 454 SS in a NO RESERVE auction. I hate to part with it but need some money to put a pool in so she must go. A few of the details about the car to start.......The VIN and Body Tag indicates she came off the line as a factory Yellow, top of the line, Chevelle Malibu Coupe with bucket seats, center console and a V8. Originally she had saddle cloth interior, but somewhere along the line someone converted it to black with paint and die. As you can see from the pictures, the car has everything on it that the SS package entails, but being as Chevy changed the way they did the SS package in 1971, there is no way to know if it came as an SS or not other than the original window sticker or build sheet, which I do not have. I will say that from working on the car everything that is there seems to be original so I would bet it was a factory SS, but can't say for sure. Also as you can see from the pictures, the Yellow paint is absolutely eye popping. It is impossible not to be noticed in this car. The paint polishes up extremely nice, but it is a driver, so there are some chips on the car and there are some areas around the hood edges where the paint is chipped off, but you have to look to find them. 


Now for the really good stuff......yes that is a 12 bolt posi rear end under the car and a brand new 700R4 automatic transmission. Also, notice that the entire underside of the car was cleaned and coated a little while back, along with the coating in the trunk. I just got back from the street machine nationals and not only was the car a crowd favorite but that overdrive tranny makes it a great car to cruise down the highway or for showing off a little on the cruise grounds. If you can make it out in the picture, I also included the revised shift indicator in the console to indicate it has overdrive. Under the hood, is a REALLY strong 454 that motivates this heavy Chevy right on down the road. Whether you like liquidating tires or dragging down the quarter mile, this motor will make it happen. It has headers, a Demon carb., and notice the brand new BeCool radiator installed to name a few parts. Car idles great and drives out really smooth, and motor is a nice mix of muscle car yet streetable. If you have ever owned a big block muscle car than you know what I am talking about, and if you have not, well you will quickly find out why we are always smiling. I would say that my starting price is probably enough to cover the cost of the drivetrain on this car so you are getting an amazing deal, check the others out for comparison.

The car has a clean Illinois title and can be viewed in person if you will contact me to make arrangements. Please serious bidders only. Please fill free to ask any questions as the car is being sold in as is condition.

GM and Ford quarterly sales continue to slump in China

Fri, Jul 5 2019

BEIJING — General Motors and Ford announced their quarterly sales in China fell, albeit at a slower pace sequentially, as the U.S. automakers were hit by a slowing economy amid the Sino-U.S. trade war. GM's vehicle sales in China for the quarter ended June 30 dropped 12.2%, while Ford's sales slumped by 21.7%. While GM also suffered from heightened competition in its key mid-priced SUV segment, Ford was hurt by the limited new models for customers to choose from. For the first quarter of this year, Ford's sales in China tumbled 35.8 percent while GM's skid 17.5 percent. Still, the numbers from GM, the second biggest international automaker in China by sales, and Ford portend more uncertainty for the industry which is trying to rebound from a downward spiral that led to its first annual sales decline last year in more than two decades. GM delivered 1.57 million vehicles in China in the January-June period this year, while Ford delivered 290,321 vehicles. China's factory activity shrank more than expected in June, highlighting the need for more economic stimulus amid higher U.S. tariffs and weaker domestic demand. Annual car sales in China fell last year for the first time since the 1990s, and they are expected to fall this year too. Sales tumbled 16.4% in May from the same month a year prior, the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) said. That marked the 11th consecutive month of decline and followed falls of 14.6% in April and 5.2% in March. U.S. car companies' share of total China passenger vehicles sales fell to 9.6% in the first five months of this year from 10.9% in the year-ago period, according to CAAM. Over the same period, German car makers' share has risen to 23.3% from 20.9% and Japanese auto makers' to 21.3% from 17.3%. CAAM is set to announce June sales next week, which industry analysts forecast will be negative.   New models In China, GM has a joint venture with SAIC Motor Corp, in which the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac are made. It also has another venture, with SAIC and GuangxiAutomobile Group, in which they make no-frills minivans and have started to make higher-end cars. Sales of GM's affordable brand Baojun dropped 31.8% for the latest quarter. But luxury brand Cadillac's sales jumped 36.6%. GM sold 3.64 million units in China last year, down from 4.04 units in 2017. Ford makes cars in China through its joint venture with Chongqing Changan Automobile Co and Jiangling Motors Corp (JMC).

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

No, Cadillac is not killing its flagship CT6 sedan

Sat, Jul 22 2017

Mark Twain never actually said that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. But if the Cadillac CT6 could talk, those are the exact words it would use. Speaking to Jalopnik, Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen confirmed, emphatically, "There is absolutely no plan, at all, to cancel the CT6." In fact, says de Nysschen, the CT6 will soon be the beneficiary of significant investment. "The [CT6] forms a very important part of our product strategy going forward for the brand. The car also has a very major contribution to make to the shaping of brand perceptions, and the transformational process that Cadillac is undergoing." For instance, expect the CT6 to spearhead General Motors' most advanced forays into self-driving automobile technology. Interestingly, though, the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans probably won't live past their current generations as the automaker 're-balances its sedan portfolio.' Replacement models are "in development" right now, says de Nysschen, which will "much more clearly separate the market position, both in terms of target customer demographics, in terms of market segments and in terms of price points between these three sedan lineups." So, that's confirmation that the Cadillac CT6 is going to stick around for a while. But what of other models cited by Reuters to potentially be killed, like the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala and Volt? Read our take on that here, but suffice it to say that we don't think they're in danger, either.
