1970 Chevrolet Malibu Chevelle. 91,xxx ORIGINAL MILES. Starts, runs, and drives like a brand new car...and NO I am not exaggerating. Almost EVERYTHING works as it should from the factory. All exterior lights, interior lights, original door buzzer(when key is in ignition), original gauges, dummy lights, etc...Even the original A/C blows ICE COLD!! The ONLY thing that I have found that does not work is the original clock in the dash and original radio...however I would bet that it is only a blow fuse or something. I recently took this car in on trade. I was told this is a complete matching number and rare 70' Chevelle. The only thing that appears to not be original is the wheels/tires and exhaust. Even the interior is as close to MINT and original as you will probably find. I have cruised it a few hundred miles around town and on the interstate with the cold A/C blowing. My wife and daughter love cruising it with me, but we could use the money out of it. I will describe in detail everything that I know about this car, but YOU might know more about this vehicle by looking at the pics than we do..so please look at ALL pictures and videos. I have provided 150+ detailed pictures along with video clips. I have the clean and clear title in hand and ready for a new owner. I believe the reserve price LOW, so put your bid in and bid to buy!! Or of course make a SERIOUS offer. Hopefully with the hours I have invested in taking pictures and making this auction I have answered all questions, but if not, feel free to call: 513-464-TEN 20. Please read everything and view all of the pics/videos prior to calling.

BODY
The original paint looks to either have been touched up or maybe totally repainted 1 time. All of the body lines in between each panel has perfect 1970 factory gaps and looks to have never been taken apart. The hood, both doors, and the trunk open and close with that tight clicking sound that you would expect from an original and solid 70' Chevelle. The underside of both door lips are amazingly clean and not rusty! All of the glass appears to be original and scratch/crack free. When looking down the sides and top of the panels, they look razor straight..however the passenger fender has a dent and the passenger door has a small line dent right below the door handle. Both fenders have rust issues right behind the front wheels. And both quarter panels are starting to rust a little too. All of the frame and floorpans underneath this car appear to be original and extremely SOLID. The only place undercarriage place that I found to have rust is the trunk pan. The trunk pan is solid and even has some of its deteriating 1970 trunk mat still in place, but it is starting to rot/rust as seen in the "interior" category pictures below. Both original chrome bumpers are "driver quality", but not perfect as seen in the pics. I would love to restore it myself and keep it, but like I said I could use the money out of it now. I would personally keep it as original as I could...I would put new fenders on it, do a little bit of bodywork, and repaint it the same factory color...and I would put a new vinyl top and a set of 18" wheels or something on it. I will let the pictures and videos do most of the talking about the body. Cosmetically, it is very solid for being original, but could use restored if someone wanted to restore it!!

ENGINE & DRIVETRANE
This 70' has its original drivetrane. It has a V8-350 mated to an automatic transmission. The engine starts right up everytime and runs amazing. It is very quiet with no exhaust leaks. It looks to have newer dual flowmaster exhaust. All of the sound exits the rear of the car. This Chevelle has power steering and power brakes that works excellent and makes it a pleasure to cruise. The transmission shifts into every single gear perfect. The brakes stop this car hard and straight. It has dual exhaust and there is no exhaust leaks. All of the V8 sound exits the rear.The suspension is surprisingly very comfortable and is an EXTREMELY smooth ride when hitting bumps. The power steering makes the car very easy to drive. You can drive it with 1 finger on the wheel. The steering feels VERY tight and newer which is surprising for being so old. This car runs, shifts, feels, drives, and sounds ALOT better than it currently looks. I do not have the original wheels, what you see is what you get. The rear tires rub a little when driving hitting bumps if you YOU or your passenger weigh more than 250lbs or so...I am exactly 200lbs and with my wife and daughter with me, they almost NEVER rub. It starts right up, idles and revs flawlessly. It cruises down the road amazingly and is an absolute blast to drive!! The only thing I can nitpick about the drivetrane, is that the belt squeeks when it is first started up and cold...but only squeeks one time and stops. There is no noticable leaks, and this car does not mark its spot when parked. All of the fluids(anifreeze, oil, tranny etc..) look good and clean. The only thing you need to worry about when cruising this car, is the attention that it draws.....I would personally feel very comfortable driving this cross country right now.

INTERIOR
The interior is jawdropping...It is like a time machine. The carpet, door panels, seats, dash, and headliner is probably as close to MINT as you will probably find on a 44YR old vehicle. The original door buzzer(when key is in igntion) works! The dome light comes on when opening either door. The windshield wipers work great. The original heater & A/C controls work great and the original A/C blows ice cold which is unbelievable. All of the original lights in the dash and gauge cluster work...even the "bright" lights light comes on when turning them on. The original speedometer works and seems to be pretty accurate! All 4 windows roll up and down smoothly. The ONLY 2 things that I have found that does not work is the original clock in the gauge cluster and the radio, however I would bet that it is probably just a fuse or something. The rear package tray(above/behind the rear seat) has been sun baked over the years and needs replaced. The trunk has a spare wheel and original jack/equipment still intact. I have provided A LOT of detailed pictures below. Keep scrolling through all of the pictures and please view them all. I know there is an overwhelming amount of them, but I want to showcase how cool this 1970 SURVIVOR Chevelle is...

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.

Here's the production Chevy Bolt

Tue, Dec 1 2015

"It looks like a Volt had an evening of regrets with an i3." That's AutoblogGreen editor-in-chief Sebastian Blanco talking about the car you see here, the 2017 Chevy Bolt. Our trusty spy photographers caught the new Bolt EV fully uncovered at a photo shoot, ahead of its official debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in January. To say the styling looks familiar would be an understatement. There's a lot of Volt elements here, and the nod to the BMW i3 is definitely valid. It's not unattractive, it's just sort of, well, there. Never mind, the Bolt will have a lot going for it when it launches, should earlier rumors come to fruition. The hatchback is expected to have a 200-mile electric range, and should cost right around $30,000 after incentives. The Bolt will be built in Michigan, and will likely arrive at dealers in early 2017. Chevy knows this one's going to be huge, and the company is fully committed to launching and marketing the Bolt the right way. We'll have the full details in January at CES. For now, feast your eyes on His Boltness in the gallery above. Let us know what you think about it, in the Comments.

NHTSA investigating nearly 750,000 GM models over non-deploying airbags

Thu, Apr 15 2021

Nearly 750,000 vehicles built by Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac are the subject of a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigation due to non-deploying driver-side airbags. While the investigation is ongoing, the agency believes the issue is likely due to rust particles that form on the inflator's connection terminal interface. The list of nameplates included in the investigation includes Chevrolet's Silverado, Tahoe, and Suburban, GMC's Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, plus Cadillac's Escalade, Escalade ESV, CT4, CT5, and XT4. All of the potentially affected vehicles are 2020 or 2021 models, according to a bulletin published on the NHTSA's website. Investigators launched the probe in April 2021 after 15 consumers reported airbag-related issues, including nine who said an airbag malfunction light appeared in the instrument cluster. More alarmingly, the NHTSA is aware of six accidents that caused significant damage to the car's front end yet didn't trigger the driver's airbag. It adds that there are no fatalities linked to the issue, but there are six crashes and eight injuries reportedly blamed on it. No evidence suggests this problem is related to the millions of potentially deadly Takata inflators recalled over the past few years. General Motors is aware of the defect. It sent a technical service bulletin (TSB) to its dealers in March 2021 to address the aforementioned warning light. The note explains the issue is due to "rust particles in the connection terminal interface of the driver's airbag inflator." The company hasn't issued a safety recall yet, however. Whether it will partially depends on the NHTSA's findings. It's currently looking into the scope and the severity of the problem, and it wants to understand its implications on driver safety. Investigators will decide whether General Motors needs to recall the 749,312 cars that are part of the probe when they close their investigation. General Motors has already spent a significant amount of money replacing defective airbag-related parts in its cars. In November 2020, it was ordered by the American government to recall nearly 6 million pickup trucks and SUVs equipped with potentially dangerous Takata airbag inflators. It repeatedly argued that testing proved the inflators were safe, and it petitioned the agency four times starting in 2016 to avoid a recall, which cost an estimated $1.2 billion (about a third of its net income in 2020).
