1971 Monte Carlo SS454 Z20 LS5 engine with M40 Turbo 400 transmission, F41 front suspension,12 bolt 3:31 posi rear end. Has load level control (compressor not on car but I do have it), factory a/c, power steering, power brakes, bucket seats with console and factory tach and guage package. I've owned this car since 1988 and it has been my summer cruise night car over the years and it has been a very nice driver but it's time to let it go. Since I have owned the I replaced the CE counter engine with a correct CPD code LS5 engine that has been rebuilt and has less than a 1000 miles on it. The engine in the car is correctly dated to this car and was from a 1971 Chevelle SS454 LS5 car which was built the same week as my car. I have the protecto-plate from that car (see pics. both Protecto plates side by side) and all the components from the CE engine match this engine except the short block. The block in this car is now the correct 3963512 block and the CE was a 3999289 block. I also have most of all the service records for this car along with the original window sticker,build sheet,protecto-plate,owners manual and the original brochure the original owner picked the options for the car when buying new. The car was bought here in Elmhust Illinois at Tom Edwards Chevrolet and was Ziebarted from new. The prvious owner was a snow bird so the car went between Illinois and Texas. The car is very solid however when the car was repainted in 1985 it was prepped poorly and the paint is checked and cracked. The car looks good from 10 feet until you get up close therefore the car will need to be stripped and repainted. The good is you can do this at your own pace. The car is totally ready to drive. The bright work on the car is very nice and you will not have to do any panel replacement. The vinyl top has been replaced and at that time the front and rear glass was pulled and resealed. The back glass on the car leaked so there is some minor rust issues behind the rear wheels but a patch will resolve it. No needed quarter replacement. Overall a very nice solid luxury sport muscle car that you can drive and enjoy and take it to the next level. This is a true Z20 SS454 Monte Carlo Super Sport. Not something someone tossed emblems on to claim it a SS. See NADA Guide below and you will see the opening bid is below average retail. I will accept a $500.00 deposit through Paypal but not the entire payment. All funds for balance will have to be cleared before car and title are released to new owner. NO EXCEPTIONS! If you have any questions please call me at 773 744 5998.Thank you. http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/1971/Chevrolet/Monte-Carlo-Super-Sport/2-Door-Hardtop/Values |

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
GM cutting back on powertrain warranty citing lack of interest
Thu, Mar 12 2015Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.
