1965 Malibu

2 door Hardtop

** NO RESERVE**

I bought this car along with a convertible a couple of years ago. I have since sold the convertible and because I have too many projects ahead of it, this is now for sale. I have come to realize that I will never get all of the cars done I was hoping to, so I will be listing several of them all unreserved over the summer.

Description

Mechanical: The engine runs well ( I was told there are very few miles on it since a rebuild... I have no idea if it is a 283 ,327 or 350 but it is a 4 barrel) and does not smoke or make strange noises, the transmission shifts well and car seems to steer as it should. The brakes need the lines replaced. I replaced one last week to move it around the yard and this morning when I moved to take pictures the other line gave out so right now it has no brakes. The battery needs to be replaced, the electrical seems to work as it should although I did not check every light and accessory. The fuel tank has been removed and is included, I run it now off a gas can. The exhaust system will need some work but it is not real loud.

Interior: The seats were redone at some point are in acceptable condition with some fading but not torn up, the carpet is worn and the headliner and door panels are driver quality at best, the dash pad is cracked but the dash is original and complete.

Body: The body is rough, the left rear 1/4 has damage behind the wheel opening and rust and rear bumper is pulled away on that side. A rock from my lawn mower broke the back window other wise the glass is good and roles up and down there are a couple of small chips in the windshield but no cracks. I have not put the car on the hoist but from checking it out while it was on the trailer the floors seem reasonable, the frame and cowl look good. The trunk floor needs to be replaced, the previous owner removed the fuel tank to do the repair but never finished it (the fuel tank and straps are included). All the trim seems to be there. The car has the expected amount of rust for its age. Originally the car appears to have been a darker metallic blue from the factory.

Title: This car has a British Columbia title and registration, if the winning bidder is from the US I can help with importation documents as I have done it many time before.

Overall: This is a car that needs to be completely redone. The most cost effective way would be to use a 4 door as a parts car, most everything this car needs a 4 door will provide. It is a bucket seat car with floor console and shifter and interestingly enough has a working 8000 RPM Tach which appears to be factory equipped. I couldn't find enough information on a Canadian Malibu to see if it was available as an option. It would take very little work to make a driver out of it and for the most part its all there. In reasonable condition these cars bring 20,000+ so there is a lot of room to improve this car and still be in it for the less than market value. If you in the market for a 1960's Chevy muscle car that, when done won't cost more than a house then with no reserve this may be the car for you.

Location: The car is located in Salmon Arm in south central British Columbia about 4 hours from the US border.

Payment: Certified bank draft or cash when you pick it up is good, but bank to bank wire transfer is preferable. Payment must be made within 5 days of the close of the auction... no exceptions... I can store the car at no charge for a month or two if you need time and can help arrange shipping if needed ( I have shipped many cars across Canada and the US but will not give out shipping quotes except to the winning bidder as it takes a lot of phone calls to arrange a shipper)

Note: If you use the Buy it Now I will at my cost install the gas tank and do the brake work needed to make the car roadworthy so it can be driven a long distance

in case the buyer wants to drive it home.

If you have questions of any kind send an email to bsingbeil@msn.com or call me at 1-250-515-1110

Thanks for looking

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon

Sat, Jun 20 2015

MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.

GM puts 3 million miles on hydrogen fuel cell test fleet

Mon, May 12 2014

Have General Motors' hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles emitted enough water vapor over the past six-plus years to equal the steam coming out of Old Faithful? Not exactly, but GM has released a few figures related to the Project Driveway initiative it began in 2007. The numbers are impressive, if not quite of the geyser-spouting variety. In all, the General converted 119 Chevrolet Equinox SUVs to run on hydrogen, and those vehicles have just collectively surpassed the 3 million mile mark. And if you were waiting for us to tell you that the distance equals a half-dozen round trips between the earth and the moon, well, there you go. The better news is that the SUVs have combined to save almost 158,000 gallons worth of gas, and some of the vehicles have more than 120,000 miles on them. More than 5,000 drivers have participated in the project. GM reached that landmark about 10 months after it announced that it was working with Honda to accelerate the development of hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain technology. The two companies estimated last summer that it may have something to sell to the public as soon as 2020. For now, you can check out General Motors' press release below. GM Fuel Cell Fleet Tops 3 Million Miles Chevrolet Equinox fuel cell vehicles driven in real world reach milestone DETROIT – General Motors' fleet of fuel cell vehicles recently passed 3 million miles of hydrogen-powered, real-world driving. Some individual vehicles have accumulated more than 120,000 miles. By GM's estimate, using hydrogen to power these vehicles, the fleet has avoided 157,894 gallons of gasoline consumption. This specially equipped fleet of Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell vehicles are part of GM's 119-vehicle Project Driveway program, which launched in 2007. Since then, more than 5,000 drivers have provided feedback on the functionality and drivability of fuel cell technology. "Hydrogen fuel cell technology is an important part of GM's advanced propulsion portfolio and we continue to make substantial progress in furthering this technology," said Charlie Freese, executive director of GM's global fuel cell engineering activities. "These vehicles have operated through seven full winters and a wide range of environmental conditions, proving that fuel cells can meet the demands of real-world drivers." Last year, GM announced two fuel cell-related collaborations.
