Up for auction is a 1978 Chevy Malibu Classic. This car is equipped with a strong running V8 engine with dual exhaust, Edelbrock aluminum intake, 625cfm Street Demon carburetor, 65K HEI distributor and automatic transmission. The car recently received a fresh tune-up with new spark plugs, spark plug wires, fuel filter and air filter. The body of this car is in really good condition for its age and still has the factory paint on it. The body has no rust through anywhere on it. It does have a few dings and one small dent on the lower passenger front fender, but nothing that can't easily be fixed. The interior will need a little attention, but all parts can easily be purchased new or used here on eBay. It has a Kenwood CD player with AUX input and iPhone hookup and Kicker 3-way 6x9 speakers in the rear package tray. The car has developed a slight brake pad squeal in the front, so I am including all new brake pads, front hub assemblies, and wheel bearings for the front with the car. If the bidding goes over $3500 the car will come with a new set of Cooper Cobra tires (275/60/15 on the rear and 215/70/15 on the front) mounted on a set of rally wheels (15x8 rear/15x7 front) If the bidding does not reach $3500, the car will come with the staggered (14"front/15" rear) directional mag wheels and tires shown in the last picture. These cars are getting harder and harder to find in this condition, as most are being stripped down for use on the drag strip. This car is tagged, insured and driven on a regular basis and has a clean/clear title in my name that is ready for immediate transfer.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask and I will answer them as soon as possible. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due by PayPal immediately after the auction end with the balance due by cash/cashiers check within 72 hours of auction end. All funds must clear my bank before either the title or vehicle will be released (5-7 day hold on cashiers checks) This is a 35 year old used vehicle, and is therefor sold as-is with no warranty. I encourage you to come check out the vehicle or have someone come inspect the vehicle for you prior to bidding. Thanks for looking at my auction, and good luck to you.

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]
Wed, Dec 3 2014Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem
Thu, Feb 13 2014General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.
