For sale is the rarest of all the irocs. A 1985 silver metallic. If you are an iroc lover like myself then you already know that 1985 was the first year or the iroc and the ONLY year for a silver metallic iroc. They did not make silver after this year. I will describe the vehicle to the best of my ability. i will give the cons first because the list is very short.ok here goes, it will need a new hood, some where during storage the battery leaked out and the hood and battery tray have been damaged. the pics will show the hood damage. the interior can use a face lift but mainly the front seats, the rugs and head liner. the dash and rear seats are in very good condition. the weather stripping around the windows and T-Tops need to be replaced also. they are very brittle. and there is a small rust spot , smaller then a quarter on the rear deck lid, just where it meets the rear spoiler. ok now the pros, all the gauges are working, all the power options are functioning properly, i had the radio upgraded, so now it is 100% stock but it has a small port for an ipod or MP3 player. i just did over $1600.00 of mechanical work. what was done....gas tank was dropped and drained of all old stale gas, new fuel pump, new fuel filter, new water pump, complete tune up including all new plugs, pcv and air filters. every belt and hose was replaced with new. the radiator was drained and flushed and all new anti freeze was added. new brakes, two new brake lines,the rear end was drained and fresh oil was added. an oil change with new filter and synthetic oil and lucas oil treatment was added.All fluids were checked and topped off.I also have several new parts for the car. i have a brand new battery tray, a set of new fog lights, and the weather stripping that goes along the front windows ( usually called window fuzzies). if i get time before the auction ends i will install the parts, if not they will be shipped with the vehicle.The car has four brand new tires, less then 50 miles on the tires. The car runs and drives excellent. i just can not afford to finish it the way i wanted and finish a 66 chevelle SS that i am way too deep into. In my opinion it is in great driver condition, but a care this clean and this rare needs to be finished properly. I have only seen two other silver irocs, both were mint. one sold for $19,000 and one sold for $25,000. So if you are able to invest a small amount of money into the car, you have a potentially very valuable vehicle, and they are only going up every year. this is a heart breaker to sell but it needs a good home and i need the room to finish another project. shipping is obviously the buyers responsibility, i will make myself as available as possible to help get it picked up and shipped but the buyer pays all shipping costs.I am selling it locally so i can end the auction if it sells. thank you for looking.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One 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.")
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
