It is driveable but will require professional quality work to be considered in excellent condition."

This is a very solid Texas car that would make a great project. It needs pretty much everything to be show quality, but could be made to order for you. It runs and shifts fair , but has a crisp shift between 1st and 2nd. It needs a heater core installed. New one included. Radio is missing. The interior needs replacing though the dash pad, rear seat,and door panels aren't too bad. A used headliner is included. No carpet. The floor pans are excellent with only one 1inch hole in the drivers side floor. The trunk floor has some surface corrosion due to rear window leak, but upon replacing gas tank, I was amazed at how solid the underside of all the pans were. I have recently replaced the radiator, gas tank, master cylinder , brake hoses, and distributor.  The roof has very light surface rust due to old vinyl roof removal. The front windshield is new. The chrome trim for the windshield and vinyl roof are in the trunk. The filler panel between the trunk lid and rear windshield needs replacing. A new one is included. The quarters are solid and can be used.The right front fender needs a patch panel and the right rocker has a crease due to scrape. Bottom edge of doors is rust free. The tires are like new. Overall this car will require quality body work ,mechanical and interior work. What you won't have to do is deal with a lot of rust. It has great potential, but please don't expect a $20,000.00 show car for $3200.00

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
