Charleston, West Virginia, United States

You are bidding on a very nice four-door , six-cylinder 1982 Chevrolet Malibu.  The vehicle was purchased three years ago in very good condition and required only normal maintenance to bring up to running condition.  The car has been used daily for travel in and around the local area.  The car was not used for long distance trips.  The car is rust-free with a nice exterior.  Current known issues:

  • Speedometer recently broke (likely snapped cable)
  • Cruise control has not been working since purchase
  • Cooling fluid has been leaking (trying to determine if this the radiator or just a hose)
  • Engine has been idling rough
  • Mileage from odometer is an estimate since there is no hundred thousandth digit.  Previous seller stated that the car had been used on a very limited basis by his father and kept in a garage.

The engine appears to be original with possibly an aftermarket air conditioning unit.  The interior of the car is clean and in very nice condition.  The car has been smoke-free for at least the last three years.  There is an after-market radio (retro style) with an aux cable port that was installed prior to this owner's purchase.  The trunk is large and clean.  Two tires were purchased in the last two months and the other two are less than a year old.  The transmission has been checked (mechanic recommended not changing axle fluid).  A mechanic evaluated the car in June 2014 and found no apparent problems.  Inspection sticker runs through 4/2015.

Prospective buyers can inspect the car.  Buyer must pick up the car and take possession at time of full payment.  A clear title will be signed over at time of payment.  Buyer is responsible for any taxes or fees.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
