Up for auction is a beautiful 1986 Monte Carlo SS. It has 31,800 original miles with a completely untouched stock drivetrain. It has always been garage kept and is in beautiful condition with no rust, no accidents, and no dents or body damage to speak of with the exception of a couple of some very small chips which is normal for an original paint car. The car along the way of it's life has been upgraded with a power moonroof which is fully operational with no problems, window tint, 1 inch cowl hood, 18 inch torque thrust wheels with Hancock tires and a CD player with MP3 and iPod compatibility, upgraded speakers from stock for a nicer sound, and LED headlights. I believe I am the third owner, I purchased the car from a good friend who took care of the car meticulously and always had it garage kept.  The drivetrain is completely stock down to the original exhaust, nothing has been done to modify this car in anyway.  The car still rides on its original suspension including shocks and drives beautifully with no rattles or shakes. It is equipped with G41 suspension G80 differential and the L 69 high output 5.0L V-8. The steering is tight, the brakes are strong and the engine is powerful.  The car has a new radiator due to a leak from the original, the cooling system was completely flushed, all belts were replaced using AC Delco parts and the rear differential fluid was replaced with synthetic fluid and a limited slip additive.  The car has been babied its whole life and it shows when you drive it, it feels like a new car.  I had plans to install a LS1 engine and turn it into a street rod but the car is so nice it would be a shame to alter the car in anyway. This is the reason why I am selling it, I would love to keep it but I have no room to store the car properly.  Look over the pictures, if you have any questions just email me.  I have all the paperwork from when the car was new and receipts for work that was done throughout the years up until 2014.  Please do not ask for the reserve price, I let all my auctions go to the end. Also please do not ask how much to end the auction early. The stock hood, original rims, and radio are all available if the winning bidder decides he/she wants them. Car absolutely needs nothing, just a new owner! Thanks for looking!

Just saw a typo, I meant to say F41 suspension not G41, there is no such thing as a G41.

Before Chevrolet's Redline, there was the Saturn Red Line

Thu, Feb 9 2017

While Chevy rolls out Redline special editions across more of the lineup at this year's Chicago Auto Show, we've been eating some 'member berries and started thinking about the last time GM used the term. Back in 2004, Saturn rolled out Red Line (two words) editions of the Ion and Vue. The lineup was joined by the Sky Red Line in 2007, and the second-generation Vue kept the tradition going in 2008. This was in the heady days of the mid-2000s, before the financial crisis and GM's bankruptcy reorganization that saw the end of Saturn. The press release headline for the 2008 Sky is now cringe-worthy: "Hot-selling Sky helps drive Saturn product renaissance." Performance lineups were the hot new thing, as automakers attempted to cash in on the tuner trend popularized by The Fast and the Furious. Chevy had SS models, Pontiac had GXP, and Saturn had Red Line. Across the Detroit Metro area, Dodge had a slew of SRT models, and Ford's Special Vehicle Team brought us the SVT Lightning pickup, the SVT Focus, and a smattering of hopped-up Mustangs. The performance cred of Red Line models varied from car to car. The Ion Red Line shared the same engine as the original Chevy Cobalt SS, a 205-horsepower supercharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, 65 hp more than stock. Car and Driver tested one with a 0-to-60-mph time of 6.1 seconds and said the Ion "tears down the wall that has separated enthusiasts from the Saturn brand for so long." The Vue Red Line, meanwhile, came with the same optional Honda-sourced 3.5-liter V6 you could get in the regular Vue, and added a stiffer, lower suspension, bigger wheels with more aggressive rubber, and recalibrated steering assist. When the Vue was redesigned for the 2008 model year, the Vue Red Line was a similar proposition. The engine was now from GM, and up 7 horsepower to 257, but you could get it in both Red Line and XE trim. Aside from the tire and suspension upgrades, Red Line models now came with a unique front fascia and rear exhaust cutouts. The most exciting Red Line, of course, was the high-performance version of the Sky roadster, which shared underpinnings with its Pontiac Solstice twin. This model came with GM's hot 2.0-liter Ecotec Turbo, good for 260 horsepower. The extra power was crucial in covering up the Sky's unfortunate manual gearbox ratios, which left the non-turbo model aching for torque in lower gears. As we all know, Saturn was taken by the grim reaper in 2009 after an attempt to sell the brand to the Penske Group.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
