2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Ss Limited Edition/power Everything-make An Offer!! on 2040-cars
Charleston, West Virginia, United States
|
For sale is a 2002 Chevy Monte Carlo SS Limited Edition. This car has
181k on it but the heads was replaced at around 150k, it runs great. The
body is in really good shape with few few dings and no bad dents or
rust. It has power windows, power door locks, power truck, power seats, heated seats, Onstar(need to subscribe), cd player, cassette player. The interior is in good shape except for a few cigarette
burns by the previous owner on the console and door panels but not on
the seats. The tires are in good condition and have lots of tread left. I bought this car to fixup and resell, I drive this car daily and have put 400 miles on it with no problems thus far. Now for the issues: the ABS,brake,check engine lights are on. I went to Autozone and had it checked for a 2nd time. The cooling fan relay circuit code is the only thing that came up but the ABS and brake light is still on??? The 1st trip the guy said it was a EGR valve code and a hub sensor code mostly. The hubs was supposed to be replaced and they look like they was. The EGR was cleaned but I guess it may have helped it because the code is gone. There is a leak which looks like oil but I haven't looked good enough to see where it is coming from but I will be working on it this week. The windshield is cracked and needs to be replaced. The fan only works on 1 and 5, the blower resister needs to be replaced. When you hit a bad place in the road the car does not handle good, I checked the suspension and really couldn't find anything wrong or broken-it is mainly on the right side because there is a rattle when you hit something. The driver side power seat control is partially broke-it will tilt backwards/forwards but will not go forward or backward. Sometimes you have to jiggle the key to turn the ignition on-I think the key was cut a bit off. There is a little vibration at 55-65 then it goes away. I'm not 100% sure but it looks like a wheel weight may have came off. The car is not junk but does need some work. I'm asking $2800 or best offer and I will consider any reasonable offer. You are welcome to come look and drive the car. Additional pictures can be taken if you need to see something better. Payment is expected within 5 days of purchase in cash. Buyer is responsible for the pickup of the car but I will help with delivery if needed. This car is listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. You are buying this car with no warranty and also knowing it will need work. |

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova
Tue, Dec 30 2014Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept
Sat, Nov 22 2014"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.
