Up for auction is my 1978 Factory 4 speed Monte Carlo I bought new in December 1978. This unbelievable original paint beauty has brought home multiple Super Chevy and Chevy Hi-Performance event trophies and continues to draw a crowd wherever it goes. The original factory paint (35 years of hand rubbing and maticulous care) will flat blow you away, this car hasn't seen rain in more than 30 years. On top of being a black, original LG3 (305) and saginaw M20 4 speed (1 of 1,719 in '78) Monte, it also was ordered with T-Top and Posi Rear with dealer installed 3.23 gears. The frame and undercarrage is equally as clean as the top of the car. The interior is perfect with mostly original surfaces, I redid the headliner in 2001 and a couple years ago re-dyed any plastic pieces that were beginning to fade and replaced the carpet. The dash, seats and door panels look as good as they did the day I brought it home in '78, the steering wheel is a LaCarra red leather wrapped C-3 Corvette style wheel (factory tilt column). The car was ordered w/o AC though did receive the Lux Seat package as well as HD suspension(F40), HD radiator & HD electrical system. The dealer installed the half vinyl roof (its original and like new condition also) and the rearend gears in place of "performance" 3.08 option. In '96 with 46K (now has 55K) miles on the car I pulled the original 305 and Saginaw trans (they go with the car) and added the GM Crate ZZ3 350 (aluminum head & roller cam - 345 HP) motor and Borg Warner Super T-10 4 speed (from a Z28). Accessories include CenterForce Dual Friction clutch, Hurst Indy Shifter, Edelbrock (#1406) 600 carb, Edelbrock TES ceramic coated headers, extremely sneaky quiet 2.5" Dynamax Turbo mufflers with stock looking exhaust tips, Hotchkis springs, KYB Gas Shocks, Autometer tach & underdash guages, Alpine CD, Billet valve covers, Lokar dip stick, K&N aircleaner and the carb and ignition were custom dialed in for max performace. Wheels are 16" Billet Centerlines and Tires are Goodrich ZRs, while they still have almost full tread and look new, should probably be replaced if anything other than cruising and car shows are on your agenda - no cracking or signs of age, they've just lost their stickiness. I relined brakes pads and calipers less than 500 miles ago. Everything works and the car is extremely solid. Never been hit, rusted, pulled apart, or otherwise molested, even all the glass is original. This is a relatively light car (<3,100 lb) and well balanced and performs extremely well. The condition of this maticulously cared for rare 4 speed equipped Performance and Show Monte will flat blow you away, people ask me all the time who painted it and when was it restored. I hate to sell it though unfortunately must choose between it and a Corvette I bought several years ago. I am not interested in any trades, see my CarDomain webpage for additional history and photos. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3156772/1978-chevrolet-monte-carlo/ you may reach me via email anytime: ac216@comcast.net The car is in the Atlanta area, I would be glad to allow you to inspect it if your serious. This car will be sold as is, no warranty. A $500 non refundable deposit is required in 48 hours if my reserve is met and you are the highest bidder, funds to clear my bank before you take the car.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
GM Recalls 218,000 Chevy Aveo Models Over Fire-Prone Lighting
Wed, May 21 2014The recall train keeps on rolling for General Motors. Hot on the heels of its recent 2.4 million-vehicle recall of various models, it's now calling in 218,000 Chevrolet Aveo units from the 2004-2008 model years because they could catch fire. The problem concerns the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. It could overheat, melt and cause a fire. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, "We are aware of some fires," and the company "is still investigating." Adler wouldn't comment about how many fires were reported or when the automaker was first aware of this issue because of the ongoing analysis. However, he said the issue has not caused any injuries or fatalities. GM also doesn't have a fix for the problem with the DRL module yet. The company says in its recall statement to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the remedy "is still under development." Adler wasn't sure when it would be ready, but he said Aveo owners would receive notification in the mail "relatively soon." They will receive a second letter later to schedule the repair. In a separate letter about the Aveo's problem to NHTSA (viewable here as a PDF), GM said its Executive Field Action Decision Committee decided to conduct the recall on May 16. Scroll down for the recall report. RECALL Subject : Daytime Running Light Module Overheating Report Receipt Date: MAY 19, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V261000 Component(s): Potential Number of Units Affected: 218,000 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo vehicles equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). In the affected vehicles, there may be heat generated within the DRL module located in the center console in the instrument panel, which could melt the DRL module. CONSEQUENCE: If the DRL module melts due to the heat generation, it could cause a vehicle fire. REMEDY: The remedy for this recall campaign is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). General Motors recall number for this campaign is 14236. 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.
