Crosby, Texas, United States

 I have a rare Chevelle wagon for sale. This Chevelle comes with the original 350 engine and 350 automatic transmission, 2bbl carb, lots of documentation. The documentation was from an older restoration nearly 6 years ago totaling nearly $20,000. Most of which was to having all the power train redone, it had all new brakes, rebuilt motor, transmission, suspension, tie rods, gear box, Ac box and Ac system, wiper motors and much more things done to it. Body has one dent on passenger rear door that could be popped out. Floors, rockers, and fenders are nice and solid. Dual exhaust, power front disc brakes, power steering. There is some usual rust bubbling around windows as pictured, that all wagons get on the window trim bases, but could be fixed. It stays parked in my garage but does run and drive great. You will love the smooth ride. I have other toys and was going to give it a paint job and upgrade interior later, but I only drive it 4 or 5 times a year. She really needs to be taken out and enjoyed by someone. I went ahead and pulled it out of the storage unit, brought her home, did a full tune up, got her inspected and new registration. I hate to leave her parked for so long so I am going to offer her up for sale. I had her for sale before and got a lot of interest, but I changed my mind because its so cool and rare, not to mention these are very expensive when restored. Mechanically she drives great, but she could be restored inside and out to make it that trophy show car. Paint is okay but fading, interior is okay but worn, head liner needs replacement, dash cluster is original and not cut up for a radio. It has a new original styled Ac system, hoses, compressor and lines, but need to be recharged. It has some non original bucket seats in it now, but I have the original styled bench seat, as well as the correct bucket seats for the chevelle. I will give the buyer the option of what seats they want to go with the wagon so they could mount if they wanted to, because the seats in it now are fine, again just not original. I could not decide on whether or not to go back with r 12 or 134, but was told since system was new and empty, I could put in the new 134 in it, but I never got around to it. Work keeps me tied up.  It has the rear seat that folds down for more cabin space and a rear tailgate that opens two ways, down and to the side. A great option of those days. It comes with a rear spoiler/wind deflector that I took off the rear of the roof, because some screws were loose and some missing when I bought it, but it can be put back up with correct mounting hardware. The rear power window is not working and Im not sure why yet, it could be the switch, fuse, window motor, or just stuck from nonusage, it might just take a good oiling as I have done in the past. Anyway, I Decided to sell her this time because of a house project. So if you want to be that person with all the heads turning, and the envy of local car shows, this is the toy to get. Once more, you can drive it while you restore her. If you have less than 25 feedbacks call me before you bid, and get permission from your wife or husband ahead of time. This muscle wagon is for sale locally, so the auction could end at anytime. If you have any questions call Shun 832 722-2284. Happy new year :)

I forgot to mention that it Will also come with a set of edelbrock valve covers, edelbrock performer intake, and edelbrock 4 bbl carburetor .  I had them on it before but pulled them off, because I wanted that factory original from factory look. I like originality, even though the other set looked awesome, and put out a nice amount of horsepower.

I got a chance to check the rear power window motor today and it worked great when I ran power to it directly. Not sure how to check switch or relay. Either way that motor working great made me go ! Whew !  That was a nice relief

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
