1975 CHEVROLET CAPRICE CLASSIC CONVERTIABLE 400 Small Block - gauge pack and other rare options 56,xxx Original Miles WOW - ok I want to make a deal here, I've had this listed on here 3 times already and over 1000 hits and a couple dozen watcher each time BUT Zero offers.... not sure what your not liking about this.... If you came searching for this, you know its the last full-size chevy convertible ever made - and restoring one is getting harder and harder as almost all 2/4door wagons went to demos and are now crushed and parts are hard to come by. This is the prefect starting point if you want to turn it into a lowrider, it needs nothing and is complete - I've seen parts cars sell in the 5-8k range and need a total restore. SHIPPING - yes I'm in Canada (about 8 hours north of Great Falls MT) and yes this will need to be exported/imported if you are a USA buyer, I know a broker that will make this painless and its no different then buying from anywhere else and getting it shipped. Depending on the final price I may be willing to chip in to this cost. Oh and you might be thinking Canada = rust... well we are in the prairies and don't have all that salt you see from cars down east, plus with the snow this car has been keep inside durring the winter season Fell free to call to chat more about it (normal daylight hours... ) 1-780-951- ONE SIX FOUR THREE christopher Will NOT take phone offers - please use the ebay button for offers this way I know your for real. More pictures @ (you have to copy and paste the links) even videos of it running !!! and then I took more here
Doors and Rear quarters where replaced with new, the inner rear wheel wells and front fenders came from rust free AZ car. Motor and Interior where never touch that’s the way it came and has survived. While doing all the work, came across a complete square bucket setup from a 76 caprice, which I think, looks much better. The original color was yellow – it was repainted GM champagne from a 96 olds aurora The top was replaced about 5 years ago due to some kids breaking the rear glass and the only way to replace it was a new top. The car officially needs nothing, gas and go…. But as you can see from the pictures its no trailer queen – its also far from a bucket of junk, its and older restoration and depending on how picky you are it could use new paint, front seats are cracked a complete fluid flush and maybe tires soon. But is complete and I don’t think you can build one from scratch for this price. Flaws that I know about – the rear flex marks on the rear deck are cracking and the paint is starting to crack away. Front pass fender has a blister that looks like rust, but its been there since shortly after it was painted and hasn’t gotten any worst over the year, I can’t say for sure its not rust my guess was something wasn’t prep’d be for painting in that one spot. Some of the clear is starting to come off need the front header panel. The gold trim on pot metal was done by a clear gold powder coat and does have some flaws if you get up close. One caprice emblem is missing, have looks high and low for one with no luck. The power top works but you need to stop it half way and tuck in the window; I think it just needs a good lube. Also the power windows could use a tweaking as you need to adjust (by hand) the rear ones to seat nice to the top. Also it almost time for new door seals as they are starting to flake apart. Not only is it fully loaded – it has every option but the 454 – it has the rare gauge pack, power sear, rear defogger, power trunk, contortion a/c among the regular stuff you expect power windows, door locks, cruise, tilt wheel, bumper guards and power top. The wire wheels in some pictures are not included they where stolen awhile back – it just has caprice covers from a early 80’s |

GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon
Thu, Sep 22 2022If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
2016 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon recalled for opening console lids
Mon, Dec 28 2015The Basics: General Motors is recalling 9,200 examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado with build dates between August 25, 2015 and September 24, 2015, and the 2016 GMC Canyon manufactured from August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. In total, 8,763 of these pickups are in the US, and the rest are in Canada or Mexico. The Problem: The console compartment lid could open in a crash, and the items inside the storage compartment might hit occupants during the accident. This fault puts the pickups out of compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The fix: Dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly with an improved part. If you own one: GM has not yet told NHTSA when the repairs for these pickups begin. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Console Door may not Fully Latch/FMVSS 201 Report Receipt Date: DEC 01, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V807000 Component(s): LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES Potential Number of Units Affected: 8,763 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle MakeModelModel Year(s) CHEVROLET COLORADO 2016 GMC CANYON 2016 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2016 Chevrolet Colorado trucks manufactured August 25, 2015 to September 24, 2015, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. The affected vehicles have a console compartment lid latch assembly that may fail to keep the compartment door closed in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact." CONSEQUENCE: If the console compartment door does not remain closed in a crash, the contents stored in the console may strike the vehicle occupants, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 16370.
