1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Lombard, Illinois, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1973 Monte Carlo with full vinyl top. This was the first year they made this body style and the only year with the gas cap behind the license plate and bumper. The car was painted when I bought it and I replaced the seats as well. It has Enkei Gold Lace wheels. The Body is in great shape with no rust and the vinyl top is good with no rips or tears. All the chrome looks good too. The interior is black and tan and I installed a Kenwood AM/FMCassette. I do still have the original AM/8-track as well. The car drove and shifted smooth. These cars handled well for such a large car. So well it was Car of the Year in 1973. Thes cars are also becoming scarce due to them making great short track cars in the late 80’s and early 90’s. I’ve been to many car shows and local Criuse Nights and have usually been the only ’73 there. This is why this car turns a lot of heads. Now for the not so good news. We blew a radiator hose on the interstate and no there is a rod knocking. The engine could use a re-build. It is the original 350 2bbl small block. This car would make a great vehicle to take to shows and or do a full restoration. There’s not much left to do.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
