1963 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible on 2040-cars
Blanding, Utah, United States
|
This was one of several older cars that I purchased a couple years ago. It has been sitting out, unprotected from the elements and thieves for more than 30 years. Despite that, it is pretty complete and possibly restorable. I don't have the energy to do it so I'm passing on the opportunity to someone else. I know very little about it so I'll show you some pictures and then answer any questions you might have about it. The biggest catch to it is that it is located just outside Blanding, UT 84511. Although we're not at the end of nowhere, you can see it from it (nowhere, that is!) What that means is that it is difficult and expensive to get vehicles hauled from here. Even a minimal hauling charge will run you more than what you'll probably be able to buy the car for. So please take that into consideration before tying up a lot of my time answering your questions or bidding on it. However, if you're truly interested, I will do all I can to answer any and all questions you might have, or provide you with additional pictures as needed. The car is sold where is: as is, with no warranties expressed or implied. I can help load it; but, as far as I know, I don't even have any wheels that would fit on it, so take that into consideration as well when figuring out if you really need it. I do have it for sale locally, but once I get a bid on it, it will no longer be for sale here -- so that I don't waste your time and efforts if you're a sincere bidder. It's a no reserve auction, so the opening bid might just win it..... Call me at 435-459-0591 or email me through ebay for additional information. Buyer is to make a $200 deposit within 48 hours of auction close with the remainder to be determined between us. I have a clear Utah title for it in my name.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
