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.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

2016 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon recalled for opening console lids

Mon, Dec 28 2015

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 9,200 examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado with build dates between August 25, 2015 and September 24, 2015, and the 2016 GMC Canyon manufactured from August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. In total, 8,763 of these pickups are in the US, and the rest are in Canada or Mexico. The Problem: The console compartment lid could open in a crash, and the items inside the storage compartment might hit occupants during the accident. This fault puts the pickups out of compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The fix: Dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly with an improved part. If you own one: GM has not yet told NHTSA when the repairs for these pickups begin. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Console Door may not Fully Latch/FMVSS 201 Report Receipt Date: DEC 01, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V807000 Component(s): LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES Potential Number of Units Affected: 8,763 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle MakeModelModel Year(s) CHEVROLET COLORADO 2016 GMC CANYON 2016 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2016 Chevrolet Colorado trucks manufactured August 25, 2015 to September 24, 2015, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. The affected vehicles have a console compartment lid latch assembly that may fail to keep the compartment door closed in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact." CONSEQUENCE: If the console compartment door does not remain closed in a crash, the contents stored in the console may strike the vehicle occupants, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 16370. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
