First, the car is located in New Bern, NC. I am listing this car for my father, any and all questions can be directed to him. His name is Lonnie and his number is 252-637-2976.

Very rarely do you find a car that is of this age in this condition. it would be a perfect candidate for a 409 transplant or drive it as is and enjoy the reliability and gas sipping economy of the great running 230 cid 6 cylinder. Purchased this car a year or so ago with the plans of making it an everyday driver but too many projects and too little time to complete all of them mandates the sale of this one to finish another one.

It is a 1963 Belair 2 dr sedan with the original 230/6 and power glide transmission. The car is in very very solid condition with very little rust. The floors and trunk are in perfect shape, never being patched or replaced and not undercoated so you can see exactly what you are getting. All of the body mounts are perfect, even the ones behind the rear tires where they typically rust out. Doors fenders all perfect. The ONLY rust I can see is a few very small bubbles trying to emerge from in front of the driverside rear tire. When I say minor I mean minor. The body is straight and does not show evidence of a bunch of bondo. The paint has a very nice patina to it, it has been painted once a very long time ago. It has new door rubbers, trunk rubber, window felts etc. The bumpers are original and in very nice shape with new aluminum inserts in the center. Everything works.

The interior has been redone in the original type look with original cloth inserts in grey with black vinyl. It really looks nice on the inside and the headliner is nice and overall it is just very nice on the inside.

The mechanicals on the car are also very solid. The brakes have been completely redone, engine has been tuned up and runs great. Powerglide 2 speed auto shifts nicely and performs nicely. Pat the gas, hit the ignition and she fires right up everytime. New tires, new exhaust, good battery, this ole girl is ready to ride. Drive it home. It really drives great on the highway.

If you are looking for a great car to drive or modify to your taste this is where you want to start. You will not be disappointed with what you see when you come to look. It is amazing just how solid and rust free this car is. PLease call with any questions and to set up a time to come look.

This car is sold as is where is and there is no warranty expressed or implied. Please come and inspect the car before purchasing or send someone to inspect it for you. No bidders with excessive negative feedback or no feedback. Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser, although we can help with loading.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
