1960 Chevrolet Corvair. This car has a bunch of new parts as you can see in the pics. Some of what has been replaced : front wheel cylinders, master cylinder, door weatherstrip, vent glass seals, door fuzzies, windshield seal, rear cardboard inside, carpet, door panels, headliner, seat covers, trunk seal, points, condenser, spark plugs, fuel tank, sending unit, fuel lines, most brake lines, and probably a bunch of small stuff I am forgetting. The car is nice as far as corvairs go. Its not a show car. It was stripped down to bare metal and painted a few years ago. It shows a few small rust spots bubbling and could use a buffing, but overall, the paint is very nice. There were some patches welded in to the floor. The interior has been redone within the past year. Its not perfect, but also very nice. The fuel tank was removed, cleaned out and reinstalled with new brackets and a new sending unit. The car has an electric fuel pump installed in the engine bay. The tires don't show much wear, but the car hasn't been driven much so they are showing some cracks. It starts right up and drives nice. I havnt had it out on the road too much, so I would recommend getting it transported if it sells out of state. I don't see any issue with driving it, but I always get people asking if they can fly in and drive it home. That's your call. The car should have the rear wheel cylinders rebuilt. They work, but are sometimes sticky. The fronts are new. The car needs a muffler, but that's no big deal. There is a small crack in the drivers side of the windshield in the top corner. All of the lights work. I had two speakers installed in the rear quarter area, but since there is no radio, the wires are just ended under the dash. This is a fun little car, but I have way too many vehicles and this one sits around a lot more than its out. I don't expect to get anywhere near the amount I have invested, so bid to win. The reserve is half of what I spent over the past few years .Obviously there is no warranty on the car. Any questions, send me an email with your number and I will get back to you asap. Please don't bid if you have no intention to buy. I have a clear title to the car ready to go.

Chevy's low-cost pedestrian avoidance to debut on 2016 Malibu
Tue, Jul 28 2015The mainstreaming of safety technologies that began on luxury vehicles will get a big boost from General Motors later this year. The General says it plans to offer 22 driver assistance systems across its product portfolio of 2016 models, starting with the redesigned Chevrolet Malibu - the one that we know will keep tabs on teenagers for the benefit of parents. Pedestrian avoidance will be another of its available options. Instead of kitting the sedan out with numerous and expensive radar arrays, the GM system uses the camera mounted next to the rearview mirror that is already used for the lane-keeping function. New software lets it detect pedestrians, and when it detects a potential collision with one, it can alert the driver and brake autonomously if the driver doesn't react. Eventually, engineers want to give it the ability to do the same with cyclists. Because it uses existing hardware updated with new code, GM says the application costs "a few hundred dollars." GM demonstrated the Front Pedestrian Braking preventing a crash with a dummy pedestrian at speeds up to 15 miles per hour. Automotive News reports that it will reduce the severity of impact up to 40 miles per hour, but "may not be of much use in collisions at higher speeds." That feature will also join the options list of the Cadillac CT6. The press release below has more on GM's driver tech soon on the way.

Safety engineers will develop and test these and other safety technologies for products around the world at GM's new, 52-acre Active Safety Test Area at its Milford Proving Ground near Detroit. The $14 million facility officially opened Friday. "Our comprehensive safety strategy of helping customers before, during and after a crash continues," said Jeff Boyer, vice president of GM Global Vehicle Safety.
A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
