1969 Chevelle Malibu: Original 307 V8 with turbo 350 automatic transmission. This car is all original and came with tilt wheel, rear defrost, power disc brakes, remote mirror, bucket seats, console, astro ventilation, remote mirror,  and vinyl top.


THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS REGARDING THIS VEHICLES CONDITION ARE BASED ON MY OPINION. I have made every effort to describe this vehicle as accurately as possible and disclose any known issues associated with this vehicle at the present time. I welcome any questions regarding this vehicle during the auction period.


MECHANICAL: This car runs and drives. I had the original carburetor rebuilt, but when i installed it , it always ran rich and did not perform right, so i bought another carburetor and it was rebuilt but never installed. The current mileage shown is 104,123 and i suspect it to be original because the car sat for 12 years before i purchased it. I took the body off the frame, wire wheeled the entire frame and painted it DE 1635 black from napa. I installed new body mounts and polyurethane bushings. Every component on the frame has been cleaned and painted. The engine ,transmission, and rear end are original to the car. The only non stock items on the car are new dual 2 1/2 inch exhaust with 40 series Flowmaster mufflers, and Edelbrock performer plus cam and lifter set. The transmission shifts good but after i installed it i noticed the front lip seal was leaking a very small amount so i bought a new one but never installed it. I have driven the car about 600 miles and added about a 1/4 of a quart of transmission fluid, so it is a very slow leak.


ELECTRICAL: All essential electrical related components(headlamps, taillights, turn signals, windshield wipers, and fuel gauge works. The factory clock does not work, and the rear defrost sometimes will work, and sometimes does not work. The car has never been smoked in and the cigarette lighter works and has never been used. The factory AM radio turns on and lights up but i do not hear any sound. The factory wiring harness is in very good shape. I have not found any corrosion in the fuse box. The wiring is not old and brittle and does not appear to be spliced into. The horn does not work.


INTERIOR: The car has black interior. All the seats are good. All the door panels are in the car but they are a little rough. The center console is in the car. The car has all the seatbelts except for the passenger side shoulder belt buckle. I have all the armrests but the vinyl is starting to crack on them. The package tray insert is gone. I removed the carpet because it was ruined and i wanted to inspect the floors. The headliner is good. The sun visors are good but one is coming apart slightly on the drivers side. The plastic above the ashtray has 2 small holes where it looks like someone mounted something to it. On the instrument panel some of the paint is coming off. One of the hoses for the astro ventilation came off and is in the glovebox.


EXTERIOR BODY: This car has some rust in the floor pans, but i think the holes can be welded. The trunk floor needs to be replaced. Behind the rear wheels is rusty, but i think they could be fixed with patch panels. the driver side is worse than the passenger side. I have not seen any rust in the front or rear window channels, but i cant be sure because the windows have not been removed. I can always take more photos if requested. I removed the front clip and repaired the rust in the front fenders with patch panels. The hood, fenders, and front filler panels are in primer. I sandblasted the original steel wheels and they are also in primer. I put brand new 205 75 14 optima tires on. The car has all the original chrome and stainless trim. The chrome and stainless steel trim is in used condition. The rear bumper is new. I removed some of the vinyl top to inspect for rust damage and found none.


  This car runs and drives good but is definitely a project. There are many new parts, but alot of original used parts. I hope the photos show everything, but i am happy to take more if needed. I have every receipt for anything done to this car since new. I have the protecto plate. I also have the order sheet and business card from the dealer when this car was ordered. I have the original keys and the knockout tags from the keys on the original dealer keychain. I have the first registration also. I am the second owner. I have every piece of paper this car came with except for the window sticker. The car has the original plates also.

2016 Chevrolet Volt First Drive

Fri, Oct 2 2015

There's a hit vehicle hiding in GM's formula for the Chevy Volt. You can sense it in the enthusiasm that current Volt drivers have for their cars. You can see it in the amount of money GM has poured into its extended-range electric vehicle project. And perhaps most importantly, you can feel it from the driver's seat of the new, second-gen model. The big question is whether or not GM will be able to turn its much-hyped 'halo car' into a best-seller this time around. After driving it in northern California, I can tell you that the Volt is tremendous. But we all know it takes more than that to create a hit. GM has so far sold over 82,000 Volts in the US. That's respectable, but in the early, glory days before the car launched, company representatives were talking about much more impressive numbers. With a few years to talk to customers and potential prospects, GM has learned a lot about what makes someone buy a Volt. For the 2016 model, Chevy has changed just about everything for the better. The new Volt has more all-electric range (53 miles vs. 38 in the first generation), is more fuel efficient whether you're looking at the overall value (106 combined MPGe vs. 98) or just when the car burns gas (42 miles per gallon vs. 37). All of that means that the car's overall range is bumped up to 420 miles, from 380. The battery is smaller and lighter while offering more energy capacity. The range-extending gas engine is bigger (1.5 liters vs. 1.4) but it's also more efficient and can burn regular gasoline instead of just premium. The Volt's overall range is bumped up to 420 miles, from 380. The cost is lower, too: $33,995 vs. $34,170, before incentives. This is a car that GM thinks will compete against the Toyota Priuses and Nissan Leafs of the world (as its new ads make abundantly clear). All three cars have completely different powertrains, but we all know that they're the headline green cars of our time (along with Tesla), so buyers will have to want to pony up a bit more money if they like what the Volt is offering. The 2016 Leaf with its 107-mile range starts at $37,640 (before incentives), while a 2015 Prius can be had for $25,035 (pricing for the 2016 has not yet been announced). So, on paper, the new Volt is an all-around winner. I'm here to tell you that it wins on the road, too. You can't help but notice the changes. They are literally front and center.

Recharge Wrap-up: Range-extended EV taxis in London, 2016 Chevy Volt interior two years old

Fri, Feb 13 2015

The first Metrocab range-extended EV taxis are operating on the streets of London. The cabs use a 12.2-kWh battery and two 50-kW motors, as well as a 1.0-liter gasoline range extender. Fuel economy is 98 MPGe on the ECE101 cycle, and total driving range is over 348 miles before needing to charge or refuel. Cabbies can expect to save GBP20 to GBP40 (about $30 to $60) per day on average. "The cash savings on fuel are significant, the ride and comfort outstanding, and my first customers are thrilled with the new cab," says the first operator of the new EV taxi, Preston Morris. "With its air suspension providing unrivaled comfort, panoramic glass roof for views of the city and silent powertrain, what's not to like?" Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet has had the interior design of the 2016 Volt finished for two years already, according to GM interior designer John McDougall. Beginning around 2010, GM received sketches from designers worldwide before narrowing it down to a handful of designs. Then the top three choices were molded from clay. The chosen theme was then refined for up to 18 months. "Every little thing you can imagine goes into that," says McDougall. "The glare angle from the windows, the placement of the controls, the placement of the seat. You have to create something that's beautiful and functional." Read more at GM Authority and at Inside EVs. More details have emerged about the Second Life Batteries Alliance. Vattenfall has announced a research project in partnership with BMW and Bosch to use retired EV batteries for stationary, grid-connected energy storage in Hamburg, Germany. Over 100 lithium-ion batteries from BMW i3 and ActiveE vehicles will make up a two-mWh storage unit for grid balancing, enough to power 30 four-person households for a week. The system is "compact enough to fit in a small building," says Bosch. Such storage systems are especially fit for storing and moving alternative forms of energy, which often fluctuate in supply more than electricity from a traditional power plant. Vattenhall will operate the storage unit for 10 years, with Bosch managing the batteries, during which time the three partners hope to learn more about battery applications and their performance over time.

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
