1982 Muscle Car, Purple, Sb 350, Price Dropped on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
|
I purchased this former drag car on ebay from North Carolina in 2010 for $4K. Since that time it has been garage-kept and had about 200 miles put on it. Car runs and drives fantastically; selling because I've had a job change that requires a more sensible in-town vehicle for hauling things. Would consider trade for late-model wagon. PREVIOUS OWNER: Installed a remanufactured and bored-over SB350 (upgraded interior parts including Big Mother Thumpr cam, long-tube headers, Edelbrock intake), TH350 trans, air-bag rear suspension, removed vinyl from top, painted car "Burple" (blue/purple candy). I HAVE ADDED: Incubus Overlord 523 Chrome 20x9 5x114 5x120 10-74.1 Nitto Neo Gen 235/30/20 All Season 280 AA/A 88w (nitrogen) Wheel-locking bolts IAS Performer Shocks (front) Grant steering wheel 13-1/2 purple Hood pins with torsion clip Oil pan, oil pickup and oil pump Be Cool Wheels Crossflow aluminum radiator, all new braided steel hoses Corbeau Sport Seat (x-wide) driver seat, passenger Summit Racing Sport black All new AutoMeter Phantom II gauages (speedo, tach, oil, water, voltage, oil temp, air/fuel) StreetFire Distributor and Street Fire Ignitor Spectre Dual Cold Air intake kit Hurst V-Matic 2 shifter E3 spark plugs Harwood fiberglass Pro Touring Series bolt-on hood Summit Racing dual exhaust and mufflers New turn signal lever, switches, springs New heater core New stereo, amplifier, subwoofer, speakers New carpet, headliner, spark plug wires, many other minor parts CAR COMES WITH (NOT YET INSTALLED): New Holley carb (650 cfm) and jet kit; back wheel spacers (if back is to be lowered or substantial weight in trunk wheel spacers will be needed); black dash cover and installation kit (interior has been transformed from maroon to black about 80%; doors and back seat need to be dyed). Again, car runs and drives great as-is. Project is NOT showroom complete but for a daily driver that looks really cool and hauls a** this car is ready to go. Paint job is not perfect; has orange peel and scratches which need work. Front bumper has tiny hole/crack on driver's side (not structural, just needs putty to fix). Car does NOT currently have catalytic converters, check your local/state emissions laws (Illinois does not require emissions tests for 25+ year old vehicles). I've put thousands into this car and now I have to let it go. PRICE WILL NOT BE LOWERED FROM CURRENT POINT. Payment methods (or trade) negotiable. You pick it up or ship it. Happy to answer any questions, test drive video, anything you want.

2016 Chevy Colorado grabs Motor Trend Truck of the Year award
Tue, Nov 17 2015It's not an easy feat to win Motor Trend Truck of the Year twice in a row, but the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado managed to do just that. Thanks to the introduction of the 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder diesel, the magazine decided to bring the pickup back to defend the title. In more good news for the Bowtie brand, the 2016 Camaro earned the magazine's Car of the Year award. The Colorado beat a tough group of finalists to earn the nod this year, including its GMC Canyon sibling. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also made this year's list. The Nissan Titan XD and latest Toyota Tacoma rounded out the challengers. A model had to shine in six criteria to earn the title: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. Like it did with the Camaro, Motor Trend posted a story online that explained the rationale for picking the Colorado again. They praised the diesel profusely and lauded the whole platform as quite a capable hauler. This year's Motor Trend SUV of the Year honor went to the Volvo XC90. The Swedish 'ute had to win against an initial group of 16 candidates that the magazine eventually whittled down to finalists that consisted of the Honda Pilot, Lincoln MKX, the combined Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and GLE Coupe, and Nissan Murano. "Seven-passenger people movers aren't supposed to drive like this," senior features editor Jonny Lieberman said about the Volvo in the announcement of the champions. The Honda CR-V won last year. In the explanation online, the judges applauded the XC90's new modular platform, and they loved both the T6 twin-charged engine and T8 hybrid version. The SUV's key enamored the writers, too.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles
Thu, Nov 27 2014US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
