For sale: 1991 Chevy Camaro RS Convertible with factory ordered 3.1 liter V6 (231 cubic inch) motor, automatic overdrive transmission, factory convertible, air conditioning, power brakes and steering, cruise, and AM/FM cassette player. It is a two-owner car with 110,000 original miles on it – it is a great driver and is a model that you don’t see (700 made in 1991). Car comes with manual, new car cassette, original order sticker, and clear title. It is selling for a fair price with no reserve!*****

BODY: Car has a white exterior, gray cloth interior and carpet, and a black convertible top. Paint is original and very nice driver quality except the front end was repainted due to chips (2 years ago), the hood was replaced with a fancier 1992 hood, and the ground effects on the bottom of the doors were repainted. The car presents well except for: the underside edge of the trunk lid is rusty and needs to be either replaced or cut out and patched (just on the underside – closes/locks fine), some slight surface rust around the wheel well opening, just on the lip, on the driver's side front and rear wheel openings, and there is a spot of rust under the spoiler on the driver's fender front and a slight blister under the mirror mount on the driver's door. Underside is clean and structurally sound. There are a couple of touched up scratches on the trunk, a couple of dings on the driver’s door, and some light spider age cracking on the rear bumper.

Black convertible top is also original, it is in good shape, however the back plastic window is out of it and would either need to be re-sewn in (details on the internet on the kit/piece to buy and how to do it), or the top replaced or left as it is. Edge welting on the top shows some age cracking, but works fine and presents fine. This car has a manual top, it has an electrical switch to open the top well (switch is not working), but it does have a manual pull to open the well instead, and it works fine to raise and lower the top to/from storage. The front windshield is also new as it got a rock chip a year ago while driving and the interior is very nice except for some wear as shown on the driver’s seat.

MECHANICAL: Car runs and shifts great – within the last year, the car has had a complete tune up and fluid change, new injectors, new EGR valve, a new fuel tank, fuel pump and sleeve, lines and sender (GM pieces), and new exhaust (Flowmaster). I have also had the brakes gone through – redone rotors up front with new pads, turned drums in rear with new shoes and new brake lines. Tires were purchased new and now have 10,000 miles on them (Goodyear Eagle P225-60s). Car has also had a new battery installed, a new drive belt, and new style headlights. Car honestly runs strong and correct with no issues – pretty amazing performance and fuel economy from this engine – love it with the top down in summer!*****

TITLE: Car has a clear title in my name and will be signed off to new owner.

PAYMENT: Paypal can be used to pay the $1000 deposit for the car within 3 days of the sale’s end. Balance is due within two weeks after that – either by cash at pickup or by bank wire transfer (call for bank, account, and bank contact details). If fully paid for up front, car can stay stored here for up to 30 days at no charge, after 30 days, I will refund all money, except the deposit, and relist the car.

Car is located 1.5 hours south of Chicago, Illinois (zip 60970) and about 15-20 miles west of the Illinois/Indiana state line. We are in a rural area, so easy to find and easy access.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.

Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe

Fri, Aug 14 2015

A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
