Year:1971 Mileage:41475
Location:

Columbus, Ohio, United States

Columbus, Ohio, United States

 

Up for auction is a high quality and documented low mile all original and unmolested 1971 Chevelle Malibu 2 door Sport Coupe with 41,475 miles.  This is truly a Survivor Chevelle, “they are only original once” and the original documentation makes this a collector’s dream. It was delivered new by Gratz Chevy-Buick in Millville, New Jersey on April 7, 1971.

I am the third owner of the car, having purchased it in 2002 from a Chevelle collector in New Jersey who knew the original owner, and who wanted sorely to keep this one within his stable of collector cars, but heeded to his better half’s counsel.

The car has the original Classic Copper Metallic on a super straight and solid body, clean chrome, and comes equipped with a 307 CID V8, Turbo 350 automatic transmission, 2.73 Rear ratio.  Aside from one small hole in the front bench, the original black cloth seats other interior components are like new.

Other factory options include - Power Steering, Soft-Ray Tinted Glass, and Vinyl Roof Cover.  The original F78-14 w/w tires and wheel trim covers have been replaced with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires mounted on rally wheels.

The following mechanical work has been performed – replaced the radiator and water pump, engine mounts, belts and hoses, and the carburetor has also been rebuilt.  The original AM push-button radio was replaced with an AM/FM push-button radio, which currently is not working.  I will include the original AM radio with the car, as that one did work. 

This Chevelle is documented with: the original Protect-O-Plate, Warranty Booklet, Owner’s Manual, and one of the original build-sheets.  It is an outstanding car that will get a lot of attention with its beautiful condition and the fact that it is all original and nobody has attempted to change it.  The car drives and handles like it was 1971.

If you are looking for a very rare and unique Chevelle that is original and a striking color, with documentation then this is your car.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
