The car: 1973 coupe, LS4 454, 4-speed, A/C, PS, PB, PW. Three owner car with 50k miles. 73 only Blue-Green color
with deluxe black leather interior. I have the build sheet but it is in rough shape.
Car was sold new in Tucson AZ, then went to San Diego CA, then to me in Austin TX. It does not know what rust or
salty roads are. To be honest, there is rust in the exhaust system.
It is a very original car but by no means perfect. Second owner changed the color to silver before putting it back
to the correct green. Front bumper is fiberglass rather than urethane. Has composite mono leaf rear spring with
adjustable strut rods. I drove car, including trip from TX to Bloomington Gold, but when it hit 50k miles I parked
it as I did not want to put more miles on it. Big mistake. Just spent, last month, over $3000 getting it drivable
and safe for the road (brakes, tires, tune, etc). Car has a paint blemish on rear deck which was there when I got
the car (shown in the pictures). Apparently too damp when deck was painted.
Car has a Jenson stereo installed but I have an original stereo from a 73, that is weak on one channel, that will
go with car. It also has an after market leather steering wheel installed and I have an original wheel that will go
with it. Heater core leaks so is currently bypassed, have replacement core. Also have several boxes or misc 73
parts collected over the years that goes with the car.
I do have the emission parts in a box, not on car. Someone had used a bolt cutter to get the air tubes off of one
side so I have a new set if air tubes for the car.
A/C was working when car was parked. Have only driven it twice since getting it back from the shop and have not
tried the A/C so must assume that it will at least need charging.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
