Up for bid I have a 1968 Chevrolet Biscayne wagon with 86,184 miles (believed to be original mileage).  This was my daily driver until I got a new job last fall where I have to drive a greater distance (I did NOT drive this car in the winter).  It is equipped with a V8 307ci engine with a power glide transmission.  I did a lot of things to make this classic road worthy.  Completely rebuilt front brakes, replaced master cylinder, adjusted rear brakes, changed rear end oil, changed trans oil and filter, replaced water pump, replaced all belts and hoses, new quiet exhaust system less than a year old (manifolds back, exhaust pipe exits in stock location), new set of rallye wheels and tires have less than 100 miles on them, also replaced all tie rods, adjustment sleeves, centerlink, and front shocks are new ac delcos, with a fresh alignment to put back into spec, replaced rear u-joint on drive shaft.  All components used were top notch Moog.  Also replaced spark plugs, cap, and rotor.  Car runs and drives very good.  AC blows ice cold.  Windshield is cracked.  Hood hinges are missing (someone must have needed them more than I did, they removed hinges and I didn't find out until hood flew up and off, hood is scraped up).  This is a very presentable car with a solid frame and body.  But does have its share of dents, dings, and scrapes, and has been touched up.  Please review pics.  All glass is solar tinted original glass, all glass looks to be in great shape besides the windshield.  Rear glass will not slide down, I believe there is a safety stuck, I had rear motor rebuilt.  Also have rear gate panel just not installed, was trying to figure out safety issue the day I took pictures.  You don't see these cars on the road everyday.  I'm selling this 45 year old classic as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  You will need to tie down hood with straps when transporting or you will be asking for trouble.  $200.00 non-refundable deposit via PayPal due within 48 hours of auctions end, and full payment due within 7 days of auctions end. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.  Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!

Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?

Sun, Jan 10 2016

Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes

Thu, Feb 5 2015

General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

GM trucks get hybrid versions, but you'll probably never see one

Thu, Feb 25 2016

A few years ago, General Motors sold hybrid versions of its Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. They weren't very good, using GM's old two-mode hybrid system that resulted in only negligible fuel economy gains. But GM's trying again, launching eAssist models of the 2016 Silverado and Sierra that are said to offer 2-mpg improvements in city, highway, and combined fuel economy ratings. Problem is, you probably won't be able to get one. Only 700 eAssist trucks will be made for the 2016 model year – 500 Silverados and 200 Sierras. When you consider that GM moved 824,683 examples of its light-duty pickups in 2015, this small run represents 0.08-percent of all Silverado/Sierra production, and GM says it "will monitor the market closely ... and adjust as appropriate moving forward." But that's not the only limitation. The eAssist trucks will only be sold through California dealers. For the Silverado, eAssist can only be optioned on the 1500 Crew Cab 1LT 2WD model, and for the Sierra, the fuel-saving technology is solely available on the 1500 SLT Crew Cab 2WD model with the SLT Premium Plus package. Granted, in terms of the Sierra, that means you get niceties like LED headlights and taillights, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bose premium audio, heated seats and steering wheel, lane keep assist, and more. In the trucks, eAssist combines a small electric motor and 0.45-kWh battery pack with the pickups' 5.3-liter V8. GM estimates total output of 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque – no more horsepower than the non-eAssist trucks, but three more pound-feet of torque. GM says the eAssist trucks can tow up to 9,400 pounds, and the battery only adds 100 pounds to the trucks' weight. The electric motor provides 13 hp and 44 lb-ft of torque for a boost of acceleration off the line, or during passing. It also allows the engine to run in four-cylinder mode for longer periods of time. eAssist uses regenerative braking to help power onboard electrical systems, and adds start/stop to the powertrain. Finally, the so-equipped trucks have a six-percent improvement in aerodynamics, thanks to a soft tonneau cover and active grille shutters in the front fascia. Great news is, the eAssist option is relatively inexpensive, only costing $500. But good luck getting your hands on one.
