I am selling my 1986 Monte Carlo SS. The car is in excellent condition. It is all original and a true numbers matching super sport. It has a 5.0 liter 305 cid engine and a 4 speed automatic transmission. The car runs and drives great. It has 95,7xx original miles. I bought the car 2 years ago with the intentions of taking the car apart and do a frame off restoration because of how solid it is and add a larger engine and really beef up the drive train. I recently decided against doing all that because I want to buy a 69 Charger instead. I am told I am the third owner of the car. I have a lot of the original paperwork for the car including original window sticker, receipts, dealer paperwork, etc. The car has always been garage kept since new. It has had one repaint since new. The paint is not perfect but very respectable. There is maybe 1 spot that the paint is a bit dull but that's it. Since I've owned the car I had the underside of the car professionally sandblasted (floors and frame) and coated it with an anti-rust coating, installed a new carburetor, gas tank, fuel sending unit, fuel pump, headliner, sun visors, complete flowmaster exhaust system (y-pipe to tail pipes), and I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch more stuff. Like I said I was planning to meticulously restore the car hence the level of detail I was doing on the car. The floors and frame are 100% perfect. You can eat off the underside floorpans. The body sheet metal is straight. The car was never in an accident. There are no holes or anything like that on the body. Anyone who knows these cars knows how hard it is to find one this solid especially how I've protected the underside of the car. The car has a stock 3.73 ratio positraction rear end. This is a real nice and clean Monte Carlo SS. It is not by any means a run of the mill junk rot box monte carlo that you see all over the place. The car has been off the road for about a year and in a garage. I occasionally take the car out and run it up and down the driveway. The only bad thing I can say about the car is there is a small about 1 inch tear in the bottom side driver seat vinyl and the tires are a bit dry from not being driven much. I keep the seat covers over the seats to protect the actual seats. The car has never been smoked in either. Like I said, bid with confidence as this is a very nice car. I will answer all questions quickly and honestly. I'm reserving the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally as well. The car comes with no warranty. Thank you for looking.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.

Chevy up to old EVs-equal-range-anxiety tricks in new Volt Olympics ad

Fri, Feb 14 2014

General Motors is at it again with a new Chevrolet Volt TV commercial. Viewers of the Winter Olymics (at least in some markets) recently saw a TV ad in between the skating and the skiing that made no mention of the environmental benefits or freedom from the power of Big Oil that electric vehicles provide. No, this one was based on pure survival instinct. In the video, a father is driving down a highway, perhaps through the Mojave Desert. His young son is sitting in the Volt's backseat and asks what happens when the EV's battery runs out. "We'll have to cross that burning desert with snakes and cactus until we make it back to civilization," the dad tells his son as they pass the skeleton of a fallen bull. The fine print makes it clear that the actual maximum range is 342 miles. But there is hope. The father tells his son, with a beaming smile on his face, that the gas generator has kicked in and they're going to make it through the desert. As they wend their way to the horizon, a voice over says that Volt drivers who charge up regularly are making it 900 miles between fill ups. The fine print makes it clear that the actual official maximum range before you need to either plug in or fill up is 342 miles. This theme that emphasized range anxiety has been utilized by GM since the extended range Volt was launched in late 2010, despite the fact that Chevrolet now offers an all-electric vehicle in the Spark EV. Volt fans are praising the commercial, called The New Freedom, on the GM-Volt forum and you can see for yourself below. This content is hosted by a third party.

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
