TURBO 350 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, WITH A B&M RATCHET SHIFTER, SHIFTS GOOD, BUT COULD USE A FLUID AND FILTER CHANGE, ONLY DUE TO SITTING SINCE 1996
 
MANUAL STEERING AND MANUAL DRUM BRAKES
 
CAR HAS AN AUTOMATIC SPEEDO AND STEERING COLUMN BUT HAS A CLUTCH PEDAL STILL HANGING, SO YOU COUD EASILY CONVERT TO A 4 SPEED IF YOU WANTED

THE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WORK, AND DOES THE WIPERS, AND THE FUEL GAUGE IS WORKING ALSO, THE TEMP DOESNT SEEM TO BE  WORKING, AND IT HAS A OIL PRESSURE GAUGE UNDER THE DASH IT HAS GREAT OIL PRESSURE, THE GEN LIGHT STAYS ON, I DONTT THINK ITS CHARGING SO IT MIGHT NEED A NEW ALTERNATOR, THE WIRING COULD USE A LITTLE CLEAN UP AND REMOVE ALL THE OLD SCHOOL ALARM SYSTEM AND CASSETT RADIO
 
THE TRIM LOOKS GREAT WITH ONLY A FEW TINY DINGS, ITS PRETTY SHINNY AND NOT SPIDER WEBBY
 
THE CHROME IS FAIR TO POOR, BUMPERS ARE STRAIGHT BUT CHROME IS FADED OR MILKY
 
THE CHROME AMERICAN 5 SPOKES ARE NICE BUT NEED A GOOD CLEANING, THE BFG TIRES HAVE GOOD TREAD BUT ARE OLD AND WOULD NEED REPLACED FOR DAILY DRIVING, THE WHEELS ARE 14X6 FRONTS AND 15X7 REAR, THE PASS REAR DRUM DOES HAVE TWO BROKEN STUDS THAT NEED FIXED

THE GLASS IS ALL ORIGINAL AND THE RUBERS LOOK GOOD, THE FRONT DOES HAVE A SMALL ROCK CHIP IN THE CENTER, AND THE REAR PASS SIDE WINDOW DOES HAVE A CRACK
 
THERE IS A SET OF BELAIR QUARTER PANEL FILLERS THAT GO WITH THE CAR IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT A BEL AIR
 
THIS CAR HAS BEAUTIFUL DOOR GAPS AND ALIGNMENT, AND SHUT SMOOTH AND EASY, ALL THE TRIM FITS PERFECTLY
 
I DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY EXCEPT ITS A VERY VERY GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A RESTO ROD , ANY BODY SHOP COULD HAVE THE BODY WORK DONE AND PAINTED WITH EASE IN A LITTLE AMOUNT OF TIME SO YOU WONT WAIST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON PANEL REPLACEMENTS AND RUST REPAIR

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
