Edison, New Jersey, United States

 Up for auction is a 1964 Malibu SS convertible. It is  non-number matching car, it is not restored and is definitely a driver. Title is clean. At some point in its life the original motor and trans were pulled. The history, reason and when that happened is unknown to us. When my family got the car it had the motor/trans as seen in the pics, a 350 with a 350 turbo trans. Car also does not have the original front bucket seats, or console, per the VIN and Trim codes thats what originally came with the car, and its what all SS came with. I did pick up an original console and floor shifter that I will sell separately if the buyer is interested. Also at some point a previous ower did repairs to the floors, there solid but its not the cleanest job, again this is why I consider the car a driver. After all of that its still a real 1964 SS convertible. So heres what we did with the car: all new harnesses interior and under the hood, new horns, upgraded the front brakes from drums to disc, rear brake job, front end was gone threw, all new ball joints, upper and lower bushings, all new weatherstripping, new door hinges on both sides, new carpet, classic audio radio with MP3 wire for your iphone, ipod, mp3 player, new front kick panels with speakers, new dual stereo dash speaker, also installed dual antennas. Wiper linkage was frozen so that was replaced, correct wiper motor was installed. Exhaust is a dual setup with magnaflow mufflers that have a nice rumble to them, its what was on the car when we got it, its in great shape and is welded, no clamps. Convertible top is in excellent shape, rear plastic window is very clear, top is manual and has to be folded down. I forgot to take a pic of the trunk but its in good and has a new trunk mat in it. The body color isn't the original, From my research of the codes it was originally a white car. This is butternut yellow and it has its flaws. A friend of ours did the door hinges at his shop for us and when we were finished tinkering around he was going to paint it for us, unfortunately his shop was destroyed when hurricane sandy hit the coast here in NJ in 2012. The car runs and drives good and handles like every other car built in the 60's. Have used it to go to car shows and cruise nights and have enjoyed it. I have some extras that I'll be including, the original front kick panels, extra set of headlights, a car cover and anything else I have that goes with it. If I had to list some cons of the car for you guys I'd say its the paint and the neatness of the floor work. The paint is not pealing or dull, it cleans up nice but it has its share of chips and some cracks. Just trying to be upfront, I dont want someone to buy it take delivery of the car and freaking out on me. With that in mind PLEASE ask any questions you have before bidding. If you are local and want to check it out we can set something up. Also - not interested in any trades at all. Thanks for checking out my auction. Must be paid for in full before the car goes anywhere.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
