Early this year, I came across this cool little car in Ohio. I bought it with the intentions of restoring it myself as a summer project car. As luck would have it, I'm now on kidney dialysis and just can't do this type of work anymore much to my disappointment. The previous owner told me that he bought it 5 years ago from a woman in California who owned it for awhile and drove it across the country twice. It was trailered from Ohio to my home in PA and was driven off of the carrier. It started right up with no problems. The engine is a 4 cylinder with a 2 barrel Holley carburetor. The transmission is a 3 speed automatic on the floor. This car needs fully restored. The body itself is pretty solid with some body work that the last owner started. The roof is gray and is good with a very small tear on the drivers side. All the glass is present. The windshield is wrapped in newspaper and set into it's space but not attached yet. The back window is glass. The bumpers are with the car. The front one is on the car and the back one is off but in nice condition and ready to be attached. The wheels have hub caps on them. It needs the rocker panels replaced. I've already purchased them and they are included with the car. The brown vinyl interior is in fair condition. It needs a good cleaning. The dash pad is cracked but a new one is included to replace it. The passenger door panel is okay and on the car. The driver side door panel is not on the door but is in the car right now and not in very good shape. A new carpet is included but needs installed. All of the trim is present. It's off of the car but ready to be put back on. There is no back seat. The original tail lights were removed and stored in boxes and are in good condition. The original exhaust, which has dual pipes, is on the car and sounds good. The color of the car is called Groovy Green and quite an attention getter! I believe it was painted at least once in it's life time. That didn't really matter to me when I bought it though as I planned on repainting it anyway. Yes, this car needs some TLC but is an absolute great project car! It's just a really neat, fun car that could bring a lot of enjoyment to the right owner. It certainly would be a show stopper at any car show once it is brought back to life!

Audi rumored to buy Alfa Romeo, officials deny it

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

For more than two years, Volkswagen has been making public statements about its willingness to buy Alfa Romeo and quadruple the Italian brand's sales, and for just as long, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne has replied with some version of "Mr. Piëch, drop it." According to a report in Ward's Auto, all that jousting might be over: it claims that sources close to both Marchionne and Audi CEO Rupert Stadler admit that the two are in talks for Audi to buy not just Alfa Romeo, but a production plant in Italy. In fact, a final deal could possibly include partsmaker Magnetti Marelli.
Against that backdrop, a report by German news weekly Stern quotes a Fiat spokesmen as saying it doesn't comment on rumors and an Audi rep has said flatly that "There is no substance in the news." If a sale is being arranged, the timing would seem to point to how eager Fiat is to raise cash to complete its major initiatives. Even though Alfa Romeo continues to delay its return to the US, it just showed off the production version of the 4C at the Geneva Motor Show (shown above) and said that preferred Fiat dealerships here would get them. Then there's Alfa's recently concluded deal with Mazda to develop a roadster based on the next generation MX-5 Miata - a deal that would seem to help both the Italian and Japanese brands.
The monetary issues are troublesome, though. Fiat is taking a beating in the European market and its weak-kneed balance sheet is delaying gotta-have-it products like the Jeep Cherokee. Fiat has been talking to banks about getting money to buy the rest of Chrysler and those financial institutions have also raised issues about debt and cash reserves, and the nasty game of chess Fiat is playing with the United Auto Workers (and now the court system about the portion of Chrysler it doesn't own) could end up blowing another hole in Marchionne's plans. It is possible that this could finally have convinced Fiat to at least see how serious Audi's parent company, Volkswagen, is about buying Alfa Romeo. Or it could be just another rumor.

Skoda racing Up! to Worthersee with Citigo Rally concept

Thu, 17 May 2012

If you thought the Volkswagen Group was about to wind down the endless stream of concept cars based on the new Up! city car, think again. Because not only is the Volkswagen brand itself keeping the train a-moving, so are its sister brands.
Skoda has its own version of the Up called the Citigo. But what racing fans know the Czech subsidiary for best is its rally program that has become a dominant force in the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and the basis for VW's own foray into the World Rally Championship. Now Skoda is bringing the two together with an exciting concept car previewed by the rendering above and confirmed in the press release below.
Following in the footsteps of the tantalizing Fabia roadster unveiled last year, the Citigo Rally concept is to be the centerpiece of the Skoda display at the Volkswagen Group's annual hot-hatch gathering at Lake Wörthersee in Austria. Details are scarce, but the show car will feature rally-inspired bodywork complete with 18-inch white alloys packed into aggressively flared wheel arches, a substantial rear wing and vents aplenty.
