GENERAL DISCRIPTION

This listing is for a 1967 Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe (2 dr ht) and is a "NON" running or driving Project. This was a factory V8  4 speed, bench seat car when new, and I have the documents to prove it, but now it has "NO" Motor or Trans or Brakes !! Otherwise the car still retains most of it's original parts and is about a  90% complete rolling project. The car will roll and steer to be put on a trailer but has no brakes.  The car will need a serious restoration, however it is far from being junk and is as good or better than most project Chevelle's.  The body has rust and will need panel replacement, however it is structurally sound and has a solid foundation in all the necessary places, and in the proper hands, this car will prove to be an excellent (and even easy) restoration canidate, that will result in a High End - High Dollar Collector item !!  For those still interested I will describe in detail all the good and bad issues with the car. I want you to know exactly what you are buying and getting into. The car has a more than fair reserve (don't ask), and is priced to sell. The parts alone on this car are worth more than my reserve. I run honest - no bull - auctions, so if you are truly interested in the car, be on top at the end, (and be serious), because I do "NOT" drive up my own bids or use friends bids !!   All bids you see will be honest and legit bidders.

TITLE & DOC'S

I do have a clear /open Florida Title in my name and will be turned over to the new owner after funds have been received and bank cleared.

I have original documents on the car including the original dealer delivery window sticker invoice that shows prices and options, and also the original owners warranty book and metal Protect-O- Plate info.

VEHICLE CONDITION

 This is a Goodcar - Badcar situation, and the pro builder will say "no problem" and the amateur will say "no way". With that said, I'll describe all the Good-Bad-Ugly issues and you can decide wether it's right for you. Overall this car is a great builder, but you will need to judge it from the inside out and not on the overall appearance.

First of all lets look at the good aspects. This car was undercoated when new, so it helped save most of the undercarrage. The frame is in excellent condition with only the normal surface rust and has not been bent nor damaged. The inner and outer rocker area is rock solid, as is all of the support areas and bracing. The trunk drops are excellent as are the inner wells - trunk hump - rear floor - and under rear seat. The front floors are rotted through in places, but not all the way to the rockers, and have plenty of good metal left to work with. The trunk floor has been fiberglassed over by previous owner and is hard to tell how solid it actually is. Looks ok, but I would count on replacing the complete trunk floor. The window channels are very solid for this kind of car. The back channel looks good as does the package tray area and should not need any repair. The front channel is good except the strip on the bottom at the dash and the corners. Top of dash is in great condition, so a simple repair panel for the front window channel is all that's needed. The roof is nasty to look at, and mostly covered in surface rust, but is solid and with no rot or weak spots, except for a small area on the sail panel (shown). The fire wall needs a small simple patch around the heater core area outlet, but otherwise this and the cowl area is very solid. The door posts at the bottom corners will need small patchs, but not serious. Just want you to know all !!  The front fenders can be saved and repaired with a few small patchs, and the rad support and inner wells are all solid. Both doors are good. The r/s door is excellent and the l/s door is ok from the outside, but will need some attention on the bottom inside. The trunk lid is very solid only having minor rust, and is solid on the inside lip and edges.

Now for the bad news - Both 1/4 panels and the rear light panel, along with a complete trunk floor should be replaced. 1/4 s can be repaired with alot of time and patience, but would be much faster and easer just to replace. The worst area for rust on the car is the weatherstrip channel inside the trunk, and with new  -"FULL" - 1/4 s, and a rear light panel, this problem will take care of itself, as the full panel will include the weatherstrip channel's and the sail panel area. The good news to all this is these panels are readily available and fairly cheep, and with a solid foundation to weld to, this should be a simple repair job.

The only other thing worth mentioning about rust is the metal removable dash panel that houses the instruments was rusted badly and was removed, but I have another panel that is in pristeen condition.and goes with the sale. The old one still has the braces and cluster in it and you can use this to make a good one. The un-removable part of the dash is excellent, so when finished, all of the metal dash parts will be good.

The only ugly news is the hood is pure junk !!  It is included, but will need to be replaced.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
