They are still out there..... Barn finds, original drivers. This one is an original driver. Needs restoration of course, but it's a car you can drive to work & restore it on your driveway or in the garage. I bought it about four months ago intending to do just that, but i experienced some health problems & i need to let it go.
139 k miles, 45 years, & it looks like it's had a lot of care. Quadrajet on a 327, engine numbers match, turbo 350 transmission, power windows, tilt wheel, a/c (updated to 134a), power steering, power brakes. It runs great, shifts good, no rattles, noises or diving or jerking. The engine is pretty much noisesless, no lifter rattle, but it does smoke now, a condition i'm attributing to the car sitting for four months. It didn't smoke when i bought it & drove it about six miles. I'm thinking it need valve seals replaced. Oh yes, it does have the double hump castings on the heads.
As you can see, although it does have some surface rusting on the right front fender & around the the rear glass frame, it is remarkably rust free. Floorpans & everything underneath is rust free, also. Looks like it had a repaint of original color twenty or thirty years ago. There is body damage to the tops of the rear fenders i tried to bring out in the pix, not serious, but it probably brought about the repaint when it was repaired. At this point bondo is chipping & flaking off these areas. I consider it not serious taking into account this car will most certainly receive a new paint job at some point with it's new owner. The interior is all original, but it is sunbaked & the fabric on the seats is deteriorating & crumbling.
Power windows work fine, & aside from the crumbly interior, it's a real joy to drive. Starts easy, (gotta pump it ), has plenty of power, does not overheat. One more thing, it has the original owners manual & protect o plate "credit card".
Now for the business stuff. $500 is due within 48 hrs of the end of auction, & balance will be wired to my bank account. Or you can show up with the balance in cash & a flatbed truck & i'll give you the car & the clear title. Absolutely no cashiers checks. Transport & delivery is the responsibility of the buyer. If you would like to talk in person, contact me through the ebay message system & i'll send my cel phone number.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
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.
2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
