AUCTION ENDS MONDAY NIGHT, FEBRUARY 17, AT 9:00 P.M. EST.

 

For your consideration is a beautiful 1969 Chevelle. Simply put, this machine is equipped how you would want, like you see it when you close your eyes at night and dream about it. Hugger Orange, 396 V8 Big Block, Muncie 4 speed, 12 Bolt Posi Rear, Power steering & Brakes.  Do not hesitate and make that dream a reality today!

The car was Atlanta built, and born Azure Turquoise with Turquoise interior. In 1969, the VIN does not confirm it is a factory SS, but it was indeed a factory V8 car. Vehicle was restored about 4 years ago by the previous owner. The Hugger Orange paint has a deep shine and looks great at any angle. No rust issues, bubbles, or chips or scratches. The underside is extremely clean and painted, and a light undercoat consistent with a factory finish, which shows great. No rust, soft spots, patch panels of any kind. In other words, its not Swiss Cheese! Trunk floor was replaced, and is solid using a correct stamped steel replacement panel. Rear quarters were also installed at time of restoration. The fit all around the car line up very nicely.

The interior was redone using the Parchment color, which presents very well. Seats, headliner, door panels, armrests, and carpet look great. All of the factory gauges work, and appear to be accurate. In 1969, the factory Tach is in the dash within a cluster of other gauges. Works great and looks sharp! AM/FM Radio is operational and fits in the factory slot. All chrome, SS Badging, and stainless is new or has been replaced. All finish is free from small bumps of surface rust or dings and dents. New Soft Seal Weatherstrips have also been installed.

The engine and trans were rebuilt prior to placing in the car at time of restoration. I have no paperwork to verify other than a conversation with the previous owner. The 396 starts right up with one pump of the gas, does not smoke, idles right, and with a Flowmaster Exhaust, sounds absolutely awesome! Has Headers, and an HEI Distributor. The Muncie 4 speed shifts as it should. Clutch grabs in the right place. 12 Bolt rear with 3.31 gears. Power Steering and Power Brakes make it truly a pleasure to drive. All in all, it is a super clean high end driver quality restoration that if were much nicer, you simply couldn’t enjoy on the road. Save time and money and let the last guy take the hit. This Chevelle is a drive immediately turn key cruiser and enjoy today. Please note: The undercarriage photos were taken on a drive on 4 post lift. Any surface rust visible in the corner of the pics is the lift, not the car. Also, on the passenger side rocker with the door open, the brown dot is not a paint chip. It is a bug. Yes, its Florida, we have bugs here.

I urge everyone to take a look at my feedback. Bid with confidence! It was 100% until a few weeks ago, when a malicious ebayer left me negative feedback over a $45.00 die cast model car!

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Plus

Fri, Jun 16 2023

General Motors sold second- and third-generation Suzuki Cultuses with Geo or Chevrolet Metro badging in the United States from 1989 through 2001 model years, and we've all seen plenty of those cars on the street over the years. The first-generation Cultus was sold here as well, with Chevrolet Sprint badges, and I've found a rare example of the Sprint five-door hatchback in a Northern California car graveyard. The Chevy Sprint first appeared on the West Coast as a 1985 model, then became available everywhere in the United States for the 1986 through 1988 model years (in Canada, it was sold as the Pontiac Firefly). It was available here as a hatchback with three or five doors; for 1986 only, the five-door was badged as the Sprint Plus. Soon enough, The General would be selling many more Asian-built cars with Detroit badges here. Isuzu I-Marks were sold as Chevrolet/Geo Spectrums starting in the 1986 model year, while Daewoo provided the Pontiac LeMans two years later. Under the hood, a 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 48 horsepower. The five-door Sprint cost $5,580 in 1986, which was $200 more than the three-door (those prices would be $15,445 and $14,891 in 2023 dollars). I've documented seven discarded Sprints prior to this one (including an extremely rare Turbo Sprint), and all of them were three-doors; we can assume that price was the most important factor for Sprint buyers. Gasoline prices were crashing hard during the middle 1980s, but memories of gas lines and odd-even-day fuel rationing from 1979 remained strong. What cars competed with the '86 Sprint on sticker price? Well, there was no way to undercut the hilariously affordable (and terrible) Yugo GV, which cost $3,990. The much bigger (but still pretty bad) Hyundai Excel listed at $4,995, while Toyota would sell you a sturdy (but zero-fun) Tercel starting at $5,448. Even the wretched Chevy Chevette — yes, it was still available in 1986 — cost $5,645. The original buyer of this car was willing to shell out an extra $395 to get an automatic instead of the base five-speed manual. That's about $1,093 in today's money. This car must have been slow. By the end, the doors were held shut with duct tape, but it still stayed alive until age 37. 53 miles per gallon on the highway! It does everything. The camels of the highway.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

Rumor: 2016 Chevy Volt gets 53 miles EV range, 40% increase

Mon, Aug 3 2015

While we're still waiting for the official word from GM, news is creeping around the Internet that the 2016 Chevy Volt will get a big boost in all-electric range and gas-burning efficiency. According to new rumors out today, the second-gen Volt will be able to go 53 miles on a full charge, have 106 MPGe and be able to get 42 miles per gallon on the official EPA numbers. Compared to the outgoing first-gen Volt (38 miles EV range, 98 MPGe, and 37 mpg) these are all impressive increases. The all-electric range boost of almost 40 percent is the biggest surprise, though. We knew the new Volt would get better numbers than the first-gen model, but when GM debuted the car in Detroit earlier this year, it said it suspected the Volt would get a 50-mile range, 41 mpg and 102 MPGe. We'll be keeping an eye out for official confirmation of all these new numbers. Volt drivers are already making most of their driving miles electric. The number sits at about 80 percent currently, and GM has said it expects this to climb to 90 percent in the new model. GM said in May that the 2016 Volt will start at $33,995, a bit lower than the current Volt's MSRP of $34,170 before any tax breaks. So, for less money you'll be getting much better fuel economy. What's not to like about that? Preorders are already open for interested buyers in some parts of the country.
