Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...
Up for auction is my '65 Corsa daily driver, all-year round. NO RESERVE. 140hp runs very well, no issues at all, starts immediately. No hot-start issues. 4sp shifts very well, no issues. Clutch is beginning to slip, my estimate is that it will need repalcement in 5K miles. Throwout bearing and pilot bushing making no noises.
Oddities: No radio, has been replaced with compass and exterior temp display (see picture)
3.08 rear axle. Stock is 3.57, so this car gets exceptional mileage.
Oil filter has been relocated and uses a (very available) FORD V8 filter.
rear defroster.
Window antenna for the radio you can add. Speakers in rear deck.
Front disc brakes
Buick 14" rims.
The good:
Engine is outstanding, ride is good. Drifts a bit and a slight shimmy at 40 mph. Front end parts are less than two years old. Suspect steering box could use attention.
Interior is excellent. Door panels near-perfect, seats excellent, are from a 92 Alero. Leather, driver's is power. Almost 16 inches front-back travel. Both sides recline. Headliner excellent. Dash pad perfect. Steering wheel had no cracks. Underside is very good. Heater works fine. All glass is perfect, front and rear bumpers excellent. Stainless trim good to very good. Entire interior floorpan was PORd when the car was painted (8 years ago).
The (less) good:
Body is awful. All the wheel well lips are rusting, as is the front fenders and rear lower quarters. Typical Corvair bottom-of-windshield rust. Doors good, not great. Typical kick-vent leakage after a heavy rain.
Replaced within the last 2 years:
all front and rear suspension bushings
ball joints, upper and lower
front springs
u-joints (x4)
fuel pump (stock style, not electric)
gas tank
alternator (one-wire, internally regulated)
primary and secondary carbs
shift tube bushings
heater hoses
rear springs (2 months ago)
muffler u-pipes
side view mirror
Following are inoperative:
windshield washer (was electric)
speedometer
following are known issues:
body rust
occasional front-end shimmy (probably steering box)
slipping clutch, noticeable under full throttle in 4th gear.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696
Fri, Sep 17 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
