1987 Cheverolet Nova,low Miles,no Rust,garage Kept,toyota Corolla,1.6l,automatic on 2040-cars
Kalamazoo, Michigan, United States
Up for auction is a 1987 Chevy Nova/Toyota Corolla hatchback with a 4-cylindar-automatic driveline. This one-owner car (we are the second) has only 93,200 miles on the odometer and is in very good overall condition. It was purchased new by an older couple and used only in the summer months here in Michigan (they parked it every winter and vacationed in Florida). It has spent most of its life in a garage and you can tell. There is little to no sun damage to car and all the glass is good. The vehicle is surprisingly clean as you can see and has an amazingly solid, rust-free body.
This vehicle runs and drives well but the exhaust has white smoke, especially when you first start it. The engine will surely require some repair or even a rebuild to bring it up to the proper specification. The engine does have some new parts on it, listed below, but the overall condition of the motor is unknown and in not warrantied in any way. Also, the headliner is falling in places and the left taillight is broken. The Autocheck report notes one 'minor' accident (which accounts for the broken taillight with duct tape on it). We picked this car up for my son to drive but he has purchased another, so I would like this one sold before the snow falls. This car is based on a Toyota platform so if you are into this kind of car this is not one to pass up. It is in amazing condition for a 26 year-old car. There is very little wear and the vehicle was obviously not abused or 'thrashed' on. Look over the high-resolution pictures and zoom right in. Feel free to ask questions and/or come take a look at the car here in Kalamazoo before you bid. No reserve. Here is a rundown of the vehicle's details: Platform: EA-82 (Fifth-generation Toyota Corolla) Motor: 4A-C, 1.6 L 8-valve SOHC, 90 hp Transaxle: 3-speed automatic, front-wheel drive 93,200 miles Rust-free Newer tires New timing belt New drive belts New water pump Very good exhaust system Very good paint Very good dash Good interior overall though headliner is falling Has one broken tail light Note: This vintage vehicle is drivable but nonetheless sold as-is for parts or repair with no guarantee or warranty. Thanks for your bid. |

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black
GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015
Thu, Jan 14 2016According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.
