 This great looking wagon with a super rare factory 396 motor and Turbo 350 transmission is mostly all there, but needs a full restoration and IS NOT RUNNING. There are some rust issues, which can be seen in the photos, but at least most of the floor, except the front passenger side, is in good shape, as is the spare tire well and the rockers. However, as is the case with the majority of these sixties Chevy long roofs, there is rust along the lower portion of the side rear windows, and the roof has also just started to show some rust through along the drivers side, but not in the gutters. Amazingly, though, because the rear window is missing, there isn't any rust or rust through at the bottom of the tail gate. Its original color is Evening Orchid and the car also has a/c, which is a plus, but most of it is missing from the engine compartment but. It still has it's luggage rack, though, and even the optional airfoils around the back window as can be seen in the photos. The chrome is in very good condition, as is the trim, but some of the trim is missing at the lower part of the back fenders. Other than the missing rear window, all of the other glass seems to be in good shape and the car isn't all dinged up either. I have no idea what shape the motor is in, other than it's original and needs to be rebuilt, along with the transmission. I've included some photos of the car with the wheels I had on it....but that I'm keeping....to show how cool this car can look and, in fact, if I didn't need the money for another venture, I'd be keeping it. And, talk about rare, just Google this car and see what comes up for sale.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
