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. |

GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
