I recently purchased this vehicle on a whim believing I could finish it up in no time and have a cool ride. The previous owner spent 2 years getting it to the point that it could be driven, so I was sure it would be no big deal to complete the process. As a 70 year old, you think I would know better! Therefore, it is being offered for sale to someone motivated to follow it through to the finish.. There are many great things to say about the car and I`ll cover those first. The sheet metal is really solid. He took it down to the metal, fixed very few pinholes of rust on the fender dog legs, then sprayed it. When I drove it home, I took a magnet and went over the entire outside and found those lower fender areas the only places the magnet would not hold. There has been a repair to the passenger side rear floorboard, but the rest of the inside and the trunk floor is solid. All in all, this body is in great shape for a 47 year old car. I believe the steel hood is from an SS 396, but I don`t know that for a fact. Regarding the engine, he told me it was a 350. I looked for the stamped code on the passenger side cylinder head pad and found nothing. I then recalled seeing that missing only when a block has been decked, and I believe that was done here. After further inspection, I found two decals on the passenger side of the block indicating it was a Four Star rebuilt. It also had a production code, so I`m hoping I can research the number and get the engine information. I will add that to the description if I am successful. The transmission, I believe, is a Tremac T5 and shifts out fine. I believe the clutch is heavy duty. The rear end appears to be the stock 10 bolt. The wheels are 15" Rally with 215/60/R15 front, and 235/60/R15 rear. All the tires look great. By the way, I asked the previous owner why, after putting so much time and effort into the car, he was selling it. He explained that he had found a tractor he wanted, but had to keep it in the garage, so the car had to go. The car has a new front bumper, new radiator, new fuel tank, new exhaust pipes and mufflers, new door mirrors, new front windshield, and power disc brakes (drum rear). Now, the items needed. It has no headliner, is missing the stock front seats (he bolted some black buckets with tracks out of a VW, (I think). It is missing the heater controls and radio. It needs carpet, a dash pad (cracked), the rear parcel shelf cover, and glass moldings.. I have done my best to describe this car as it sits and apologize in advance if I have overlooked any important details. I feel there is a very reasonable reserve on the car and know that it has the potential of being a great driver once completed. As a matter of information for prospective bidders, the car sold on June 30th for $6600, but the sale was cancelled due to an international shipping issue. It was relisted and sold again on July 14th, but the winning bidder never contacted me and didn`t respond to any of my emails or calls. Please bid only if you truly hope to be the successful bidder and you are in a position to make arrangements for shipping. Thanks, and good luck bidding!

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes
Thu, Feb 5 2015General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra could get independent rear suspension
Fri, Jan 3 2020The Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra could reportedly receive a variant of the four-link independent rear suspension found under the new Tahoe and Suburban. While that's not a surprise, a recent report suggests electrification, not comfort, convinced General Motors to make the change. Replacing the time-tested solid rear axle with an independent suspension will improve comfort, handling and off-road prowess, while adding weight, and likely making the trucks a little bit more expensive. It's a fair trade-off, but GM Authority learned the real reason for the swap is that at least one of the pickups will spawn an electric model, and it's more difficult to package a bulky battery pack around a solid rear axle. The independent rear suspension takes up far less space, even if it has more moving parts. General Motors will build its first regular-production electric pickup on an evolution of the Silverado's T1 platform named BT1, according to the same source. The b stands for -- you guessed it -- batteries. The firm reportedly doesn't want to make two suspensions for cost reasons, so the independent setup will come standard regardless of whether the truck runs on gasoline, diesel, or electricity. As a bonus, Chevrolet and GMC could choose to offer their T1-based trucks with Magnetic Ride Control or an air suspension, options available on the 2021 Suburban and Tahoe. The independent rear suspension will also find its way to the next-generation GMC Yukon due to be revealed January 14, and to the 2021 Cadillac Escalade scheduled to make its debut February 4. The long-rumored, born-again Hummer will get it, too, because it will arrive as an electric model built on the BT1 platform. It's worth noting none of this is official, and General Motors has remained quiet about what's next for its new suspension design, and what will be under its electric truck's sheet metal. If the GM Authority report is accurate, the Silverado (pictured) and the Sierra could ditch their solid rear axle for the 2021 model year. The change will likely be accompanied by other tweaks inside and out. Featured Gallery 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 View 16 Photos Chevrolet GMC Truck
Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.
