We are proud to offer our beautiful 1969 Chevelle Malibu for sale.

 

We bought this car from a gentleman who owned this car for the last 20 something years.  About 8 years ago, he had the car restored including a rebuild on the original 307 small block and TH350 transmission.  The undercarriage was painted and coated lifting the body off.  The interior was restored and the exterior was painted in the gorgeous Cortez Silver.  This Chevelle appears to be all original with the exception of the correct style bucket seats. 

This is also an A/C car that was recently charged and blows cold.  The greatest thing about this car is it is 100% complete and everything works as it should!  All of the lights, switches, wipers, heater, A/C, engine, transmission are in fantastic working condition!  This car would make an awesome driver or the best start to a hot rod you could ask for!

If you look at my feedback you will notice I have a wonderful reputation for selling and describing high interest cars.  I believe in trying to present the best online evaluation I can to make sure the buyer knows exactly what he is getting and not getting by winning this auction.  Most ads I see on Ebay only list specs on a car and often do not mention anything about the actual condition of the car...run from these.  Here is the car as I see it:

Body:  This appears to be a very original, rust free car with the exception of the driver's side quarter panel at the very rear, lowest part.  This is very common and it is just starting to bubble through the black paint on the underside.  The beauty of this is that it would be a very easy repair if concerned about it as you only need to replace the bottom lip of the rear quarter and would be easy to match the black paint.  This is the only rust I have found in the car.  The battery tray area looks great, inner fender wells, window channels, etc. all look good.  I believe the passenger rear quarter had a small patch at the very bottom with metal when restored.  The body appears very straight and all the gaps line up nicely.  Doors, hood and trunk all open and close like new!  The vinyl top is in great condition and is a rich black in color.  The windshield is in good condition but there is a groove in the glass following the arch of the blades on the driver's side.  This does not block any visibility but is easily replaced if you want to. All of the bumpers and stainless trim are in great condition!

Paint:  This car has very nice paint and I would call it a nice driver quality.  There are a few small scratches that are hard to see in the silver paint unless you are up close.  There is also some very small particles that must have gotten into the paint and then cleared over.  It looks like very small sand or dust particles but these can be found all over the car if you look very closely.  The car is very glossy and the silver coverage is smooth and not blotchy like a lot of silver cars you see.

Interior:  The interior shines in this car.  The dash pad is like new, headliner is like new with working dome light, the carpet is new, the back seat is in fantastic condition and the metal dash his uncut and in terrific condition.  There are a few small scratches on the dash around the glove box that is an easy touch up but worth mentioning.  The driver and passenger bucket seats are in good condition but could use a simple dye touch up where the black has been worn off.  If I were to keep this car I would have the front seats redone with new covers and new foam and you would have a beautiful finished interior!  All of the windows roll up and down nicely and seal well. 

Mechanical:  This has the original 307 small block in it that starts right away, doesn't appear to use any oil or smoke.  It has the original two barrel carburetor with manual choke.  The transmission shifts smooth and well and there are no noticeable noises anywhere.  The brakes are original drum style at all four corners that work well and stop straight!  The rear end is stock with tall highway gears and assume they are original.  I do not believe it is a posi car as it is all original. 

Wheels & Tires: The wheels look like brand new and are the original style S/S Cragars. They even have the older metal caps which is very cool unlike the new plastic versions that peel. The tires are in great condition with 80-90% tread remaining.  This Chevelle cruises down the interstate nicely, tracks straight and does not wander at all.  It drives amazing! 

I have a clean and clear title for this car!

 

As you can see by the photos, this car looks amazing and it is so hard to find these old Chevelles that are complete with everything working.  Run it like it is for a reliable driver to all the car shows or drop in a big block and you have a finished hot rod! Either way you don't have a lot of odds and ends to locate or fix costing you thousands more in your car.  

 

Please contact me through Ebay with any questions before you bid or to get my contact information.  Please only bid if you are serious and intend to complete the transaction.  I also have high definition photos available upon request!  If you have zero feedback please contact me BEFORE you bid.  

 

I can assist with delivery arrangements or can pick up the new buyer at the Boise airport (BOI) and you can drive this home!  It is very reliable!  Any help you need from me to complete this transaction must be approved before you bid or win the auction.  If you are an Idaho resident I must collect 6% in sales tax.  If you are out of state there will be no taxes collected.

 

I am open to trades of equal or greater value so let me know what you have and send me some pictures...just remember the equal or greater value part!

 

Thank you for looking and good luck bidding!

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.

What car should James Robertson buy to drive his famous 21-mile commute?

Thu, Feb 5 2015

The Internet has been abuzz this week with the story of Detroit resident James Robertson, the 56-year-old factory worker who has walked some 21 miles to work for the last 10 years. The Detroit Free Press brought Robertson's story to the fore, helping an online fundraising campaign to generate more than $275,000 (as of this writing). The original goal was just $5,000, or about enough to replace the used Honda that died on Robertson back in 2005, and left him walking. So, newly flush with funds, what's the perfect car for Robertson to buy? Let's look at the specifics of his situation, and try to pick out the best options. Here's what we know: Robertson's commute is (famously) 21 miles; he lives in downtown Detroit (for now) and seems pretty humble, so something very flashy is probably out; former Honda aside, his ties to the city (and statements about being a Ford fan) seem to indicate a Detroit Three company product is best; he's a single guy with a girlfriend; he's got to deal with Michigan weather, and the sometimes fickle snow removal processes in The D. Here are some choices: Ford F-150 Robertson is on record as being a Taurus fan, and after a decade of walking I've no doubt that the big sedan would offer a cozy respite. Still, as a car guy and a student of the industry, I'd have a hard time recommending a sedan so clearly in need of replacement. Especially when The Blue Oval has such great stuff within the rest of its roster. The 2015 F-150 seems almost perfect for Robertson. Opting for either of the new EcoBoost V6 engines should help keep fuel bills in reasonable check, while healthy ride height and four-wheel drive will get him to work on time even during the snowiest of snow days. Better still, with a fat options sheet and car-like ride quality, Robertson can have just about every amenity he might want, in a package that won't disrespect his blue-collar roots. Chevrolet Colorado You guys saw this one coming, right? The smaller footprint of the midsize Chevy pickup, relative to some of the other options here, should be an advantage for urban parking and driving. And again, 4x4 is an option for the nasty weather, the running costs should stay pretty low and there aren't many tech/luxury features that can't be had in-cabin. I'd go ahead and splash out on the Crew Cab bodystyle, too, just in case Robertson feels like starting a carpool.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out

Thu, 29 Apr 2010

Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
