This beautiful, smooth running V-8 convertible is great for cruising around town or long road trips. Very reliable with an electronic ignition and rebuilt TH-350 transmission. The engine has the original Rochester carburetor and a newer GM Performance air cleaner. The exhaust system has been upgraded with Hedman headers and full Flowmaster dual exhaust. It sounds amazing! It also has a new battery, new alternator and reconditioned radiator (and new hoses). The brakes; discs in front and drums in back work fine, but need new pads and rotors. The carb could use a tune-up and the sending unit for the gas tank is not very accurate. The exterior is rust free and has been repainted with period correct Flame Red with clear coat. The chrome bumpers are in good original condition with a few small stone chips and the front bumper has a small dent in the corner (see pics). The badges and emblems are all in place. There are a few small stone chips on the front edge of the hood. The side mirrors are 1970 Camaro/Chevelle sport mirrors. The wheels are aftermarket 16" Rallys and the tires are fairly new with about 5k miles on them. The convertible top is in ok condition, it doesn't have any holes or tears. But, it shows a bit of wear. The interior is refinished black vinyl and the carpet is new. It has brown stock GM lap belts and I have black aftermarket lap belts included. The heater/defroster work as do the windshield wipers and windshield radio antenna. All of the gauges work. There is a Rockford Fosgate CD head-unit and new speakers. 2 tweeters, center 4" and rear 6x9's. It sounds OK, not great. The power top works but struggles on the way up. It usually requires a hand assist to get it fully closed. The trunk is clean and rust free, with a full size spare and original jack. The windows are manual roll down, the rear passenger side window pops out of its track occasionally. Overall, this is a very reliable, fun, daily driver or weekend cruiser. I have tried to give as much info as I know, but I am not a mechanic. The car has been basically trouble free and now is starting to need some TLC. I don't have the time to keep up with it, so unfortunately I should sell it to someone who can. I will be sad to see it go. If you have any questions or would like to see it in person, send me a message. Please, only serious bidders and NO TRADES.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
