"BARN FIND", This car has sat for about 20 years and is in good shape. * Mileage on odometer is 54,165 but title says not actual.* I am the second owner, as the original owner passed away recently and I purchased it from his family. This Collectors Edition would be a great candidate for a restoration project as it appears to be fairly complete. The frame is solid but has a coating of rust from sitting in a garage with a concrete floor. The seats, door panels, carpet, and trim are in decent shape. The windshield has a crack, the rest of the glass, including the T-tops are in great shape. The rear glass is heated and opens (Only the Collectors edition has this feature). The front bumper has some damage on the front right side, there are paint chips all over and the car could use a paint job. The engine has not been started and at present does not run. The brake bleeders were removed by the previous owners son in an attempt to move the car ( the parking brake shoes were frozen to the rotor hubs, and were removed) , so the brakes are not functioning at present. The rear exhaust was removed previously and comes with a new Y-pipe. I have done nothing to this car but transport it to my home, and only have knowlege which was passed on to me by the original owners family. I bought it with plans to restore it but have other projects which take precedence. This car comes to you as I got it and if you purchase it with the "buy it now", not only will you get the car, but you will also receive a beverage and snack when you come to pick it up (Must be trailered). A non-refundable deposit of $500.00 via Pay Pal is due upon winning bid/purchase with the balance due in __"CASH"__ "NO CHECKS"___ when car is picked up within 7 days! There are no warranties and is sold where is / as is. Questions are welcome. The zip code is 46385, Valparaiso, Indiana.

Mysterious white powder discovered at GM Orion Assembly
Fri, Sep 2 2016Workers at General Motors Orion Assembly Plant in Orion Township, MI uncovered a mysterious white powder in two different parts of the factory earlier this week, raising concerns about worker safety. "We can confirm that an unknown substance (white powder) was found on the floor outside of Gate 6 at Orion Assembly on Monday, August 29. On Tuesday, August 30, we had a second report of a bottle containing a similar substance found inside the plant," GM spokesperson Dayna Hart told The Oakland Press via email. GM stressed that incident didn't disrupt operations at the plant, and that the company was taking steps to ensure the safety of the sprawling factory's workers. That did include, an anonymous worker told The Oakland Press, closing off parts of the factory for two full days, as drug-sniffing dogs and crews in haz-mat suits descended on the area. "A sample of the substance has been sent to a laboratory for identification and results are expected later this week," Hart said. "All findings and actions have been shared with our employees." Orion Assembly currently builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, and will eventually be responsible for production of the new, all-electric Chevy Bolt early next year. Related Video:
Porsche 911 tops a list of must-have classics, but No. 2 is more of a surprise
Wed, Aug 9 2023No surprise here: In Europe, the Porsche 911 is the most sought-after classic car. Surprise here: Slip-streaming the 911 in the most sought-after chart compiled by the Car & Classic marketplace is the Ford Mustang. Using the Google search engine as a means to pick the winners, as well as the average prices achieved on the “Car and Classic” website, the venerable 911 was tagged 1.45 million times per month according to data stretching back 15 years. The number of 911Â’s sold though the C&C marketplace was 21,141, at an average price of 58,409 pounds, or $74,300. FordÂ’s pony car, still a popular choice for buyers in Europe, placed second on the list with 1.2 million monthly searches. The average sales price over 15 years was 31,107 pounds ($39,570), and the number of older Mustangs sold reached a total of 8,332. Models that also finished among the charted top 10 include the Land Rover Range Rover, the Corvette, the ultra-classic British favorite Jaguar E-Type and the BMW 3 Series. “Whilst a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS could set you back the best part of GBP500,000 ($636,000), there are many more affordable models, which bring the average sale price of a 911 on Car & Classic to GBP58,000 ($73,800) – the third highest average selling price of any make and model on the site,” explained Dale Vinten of Car & Classic. According to the site, the Jaguar fetched the highest average selling price: a whopping 89,000 pounds, or $113,000. But thatÂ’s peanuts compared to a Series 1 Roadster in excellent condition, said Vinten. For that, “you can expect to spend up to GBP250,000 ($318,000), A Series 2 or 3 will cost less, as they are not as desirable, but in decent condition you can expect to pay around GBP40,000-GBP50,000. Even a barn find 1969 E-Type Series 2 Roadster can set you back to the tune of GBP33,000 ($42,000)." Launched in 2005, Car & Classic is among EuropeÂ’s most popular classic car clearinghouses. It also runs a stand-alone auction site.
