1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo - #3 Dale Earnhardt Nascar Stock Car Clone on 2040-cars

Year:1995 Mileage:180570
Location:

Wichita, Kansas, United States

Wichita, Kansas, United States

This is a very special 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 2dr coupe.  The story that was told us from the previous owners is that the original 1st owner contacted Dale Earnhardt Incorporated and worked out a deal to make the car a clone of the actual NASCAR car that Dale was driving.  The car was brought to DEI and they professionally applied all of the decals on it to make it look like Dale's car.  This car was on the Hot Rod Power Tour from 2009-2012, and was also at the Kansas Speedway for various events.


Here are the specs:  1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS 2dr coupe.  3.1L V6 engine, automatic transmission. Current mileage is at 180,570, but it may vary by a few miles as it is moved around the lot.  The car starts and runs as it should, but the exhaust is smoky, and the engine has a miss.  The graphics are faded/peeling/cracking.  The paint is decent but is fading also.  There are various dings throughout, but overall the body is in decent shape for an almost 20 year old vehicle.  It has aftermarket black wheels with Goodyear Eagle tires that are in good shape.

The interior is decent. There are no major rips/holes/tears, but there is some staining on the floorboards and in the back seat.  The front bucket seats have seat covers that are in good shape, and the upholstery under those covers is in good shape.  It has an aftermarket Pioneer CD player installed, and comes with the remote control.

Overall this car is in decent shape for the age.  It will need some engine work.  A simple swap would probably be the easiest fix.  But you will definitely turn heads with NASCAR fans with the custom graphics on this car.



This vehicle is a project car.  It needs work to be 100% operational.  It is being sold with the understanding of this.  However, the state of Kansas does not allow dealers to sell cars "AS IS".  Some sort of warranty must be provided. 

 

To cover our end of the deal on this, we are providing a 12 month, 12,000 mile warranty on this vehicle.  Any warranty work will have to be performed at our repair facility in Wichita, KS.  Our Warranty will cover 10% of the parts and labor for the repairs.  You, the buyer, will be responsible for the other 90% of the cost of parts and labor, and will be responsible for transporting the vehicle to and from the repair facility.  We understand that for most buyers, this is not something that you will take advantage of, especially if you don't live in Wichita, KS.  However, most project cars you buy will not have a warranty whatsoever.  We are simply offering this Warranty to satisfy our obligation with the state of Kansas.

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas

Wed, Oct 29 2014

Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Audi S4 drivers are the most accident-prone, insurance report says

Sun, Jun 25 2023

Culling data from more than 4.6 million automobile insurance applications, researchers at the Insurify insurance comparison marketplace picked a winner — or more to the point, a loser — in its determination of the car model with the most accidents so far in 2023: the Audi S4. Why does the sporty, luxury-class German sedan rank so high (or so low)? The organization found that S4 drivers, piloting a car with almost 350 horsepower, are among those who collect the most speeding tickets, and that they get into accidents at a rate 54 percent higher than the national average. If the S4 isnÂ’t a surprise with an at-fault accident rate of 11.7 percent, consider the “family friendly” brand that appears three times on the Insurity list: Subaru. It is represented by three models, including the turbocharged WRX and XV Crosstrek, and at the better-performing bottom of the list, the Subaru Impreza, with an accident rate of 10.3 percent.  In 2023, 7.6 percent of U.S. drivers were involved in at least one at-fault accident in the prior seven years. For drivers of cars on this list, the average at-fault accident rate was 10.5 percent, meaning these drivers are 1.4 times as likely to have an at-fault accident on record. According to its statement, the Insurity data science team explored key safety features, driver behavior, and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluations to pinpoint possible reasons behind these carsÂ’ high accident rates. Following is the list, counting down to the models with most reported accidents: 10. Subaru Impreza (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.3 percent; MSRP base model): $19,795) 9. Kia Niro (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4 percent; MSRP base model): $26,590) 8. Chevrolet Silverado LD (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4%, MSRP base model): $34,500) 7. Subaru XV Crosstrek (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.5 percent, MSRP 6. Subaru WRX.(percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.7% MSRP base model): $29,605) 5. Toyota GR86 (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.8 percent MSRP base model): $29,900) 4. Hyundai Veloster N (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.9 percent; MSRP base model): $32,500) 3.
