important........this vehicle does not belong to me, iam listing it for a friend who does not like to mess with computers. any questions about the cars condition or price must be directed to him by calling him at 267-347-9683. any questions emailed to me will go unanswered as iam leaving for vacation and will be away from my computer for the week. this auction is for an unmolested, original paint, survivor 1972 monte carlo. my buddy bought this car @ 10 years ago. he is owner number 3, the 2 previous owners were in the same family. my friend had been searching for one of these first generation monte carlos for a restoration project and purchased this car because of its originality, one family ownership and 66,289 documented miles. he had planned to fully restore this car but after addressing a few minor problems it was set aside until other projects were completed. then as so often happens time to work on this car never happened and now with other projects taking his time, he would like to find a new home for this monte carlo. the original 350 2bbl runs like a clock, uses no oil, no valve tick, simply purrs like a kitten. as the pics show other then maitainence items like hoses, filters and the battery the engine compartment is all original. my friend did swap in an HEI distributor, but that's a no brainer update which helps the car, run and start much better. the original distributor comes with the car. the factory air conditioning is complete but needs charged. the turbo 350 3 speed automatic trans preforms great and is shifted thru the console mounted shifter. the car is factory equipped with power steering and power brakes with front discs. the frontend has been rebuilt and a new master cylinder, front calipers and linings have been installed. the rear axle is original and the car rides on 15x7 rally wheels with BFG radials. the car drives great. the body is very solid with minor rust issues on the bottom insides of both front fenders and rear quarters however I feel it can all be corrected without panel replacement. the trunk seal leaks, the rust in the trunk area seen in the pics is only surface rust........no rust thru. the doors open and close solidly and all the glass is good but the windshield needs resealed. the original paint color is called midnight bronze. all the paint is original except for the passenger side fender which was repainted long ago after a minor parking lot snafu. the car will need stripped and repainted as the paint is severely checked. the bumpers and all trim are in good shape. the vinyl roof will need replaced as it appears at one point someone tried to paint it another color. the interior is very nice. the dashpad and instrument panel are perfect and the seats, door panels and center console are nice also. the carpet will need to be replaced as will the headliner thanks to a mouse. options are rear defogger and factory am/fm radio, although the radio does not work, the dash clock also is not working. my friend holds a clear title for this car plus much of the original paperwork as shown in the photos. a 500.00 deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end, the balance to be paid before the car is taken. for local pickup the car is located about an hour north of Philadelphia and within easy access of the Pennsylvania turnpike. if the car is to be picked up by a transport company my friend has agreed to help out as needed. |

Next-gen GMC Sierra spied with diesel power
Tue, Sep 5 2017The next generation of GM trucks is arriving soon, and we're expecting a huge leap forward over the current lineup. The Chevy Silverado and the GMC SIerra sell extremely well, but haven't done much to move the segment forward in a long time. The Ford F-150 has an all-aluminum body and turbocharged V6 power. The Ram 1500 gained a diesel and coil spring suspension. These spy shots show that diesel may be in the cards for GM. Some quick shots and copious use of flash show what is most likely a tank for diesel exhaust fluid and a diesel particulate filter, both necessary equipment for any modern diesel. It's unclear what form factor that engine will come in, though GM has a number of engines to choose from, including the 2.8-liter inline four that's found in the Colorado and Canyon, though that may be a little light duty for the Silverado and Sierra. Other rumors surrounding the trucks suggest a move to an aluminum cab while retaining a steel bed. That seems like a reasonable move for GM, even if the company was attempting to shame Ford for its move to aluminum a few years ago. Look for more news as early as the Detroit Auto Show in January.

GM recalls trucks and SUVs for brake pedal problem
Thu, Feb 11 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall over 473,000 North American examples of the 2015-2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD, and police pursuit versions of the Chevy Tahoe. These include 426,573 vehicles in the US and 46,837 in Canada, according to Reuters. The Problem: The brake pivot nut can loosen over time, which can render the pedal inoperative. This would be a danger to drivers trying to stop the vehicles. In some cases, the "Service Engine Soon" light might come on. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt, and if necessary they will apply adhesive to it and reinstall the part with increased torque. If You Own One: "We expect to start customer notifications shortly," GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog.

If the brake pedal becomes loose or inoperative, it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, and/or the driver may be unable to safely stop the vehicle through application of the brake pedal, potentially affecting stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt installation to determine whether the vehicle has already received the production remedy. If not, the dealer will add adhesive to the nut, and reinstall the nut at an increased torque. Note: This condition may result in the "Service Engine Soon" light illuminating, and brake lights may stay on longer than expected.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
