THIS IS A SOLID RESTOREABLE "GENTLEMANS MUSCLE CAR". THE ENGINE IS COMPLETELY ORIGINAL AND UNOPENED FROM 1972 EXCEPT FOR THE TIMING CHAIN THAT WAS CHANGED 2 YRS AGO. THATS IT! THIS ENGINE RUNS EXCEPTIONAL! NO HESITATIONS, BOGGS, STUMBLES, NOTHING. YOU CAN CRUISE AT 65-70MPH AND FLOOR IT AND THE ENGINE JUST PULLS NICE AND STEADY. IT CAME WITH A FACTORY 12 BOLT REAR END, AND A TH350 TRANS. ALL BREAK PADS FRONT AND REAR STILL HAVE APPROX 75% LIFE LEFT. BREAKS RESPONSE IS GREAT. IT CAME FROM THE FACTORY WITH AC AND EVERY CONNECTION, HOSES, AND ELECTRICAL ARE UNMOLESTED ,CUT OR BUTCHERED. ALL THE ELECTRICAL CONNETIONS FROM THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS TO THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS ARE ALL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION(UNCUT). ALL LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, SWITCHES, WIPER MOTOR, BLOWER MOTOR, INTERIOR LIGHTS, EVERYTHING STILL WORKS. DASHBOARD IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO CRACKS. IT HAS ALL THE INTERIOR TRIM PANELS AND ( EXCEPT FOR HEADLINER AND CARPET). DOORS STILL SHUT EASILY AND SOLIDLY. FLOORS HAD SOME SURFACE RUST AND WAS TREATED WITH SEVERAL LAYERS OF POR 15. NOW THEY ARE SURE NOT TO RUST THROUGH. YOU CAN HIT THEM WITH A HAMMER NOW AND IT WONT GO THRU. SEATS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE FOR THE REAR AND COULD USE A NEW COVER ON THE FRONT(OR A TOWEL FOR NOW). YOU COULD PATCH THE TRUNK AND STILL HAVE A SOLID TRUNK, OR REPLACE SMALL SECTIONS AT A TIME.THE FRAME IS COMPLETELY SOLID AND STRAIGHT. NO ACCIDENTS JUST SUFACE RUST. ALL OF THE LOWER PANELS OF THE CAR WHERE THE TRIM IS ATTACHED COULD USE JUST A LITTLE HELP. (DOES NOT NEED COMPLETE PANELS AT ALL. THE ROOF MAY NEED ALITTLE EXTRA HELP WITH RUST HOLES ON THE TOP OF THE ROOF NEAR THE GLASS AND WHERE THE SIDE EMBLEMS GO ON THE SAIL PANELS. I STILL HAVE ALL THE ORIGINAL STAINLESS TRIM FOR THE VINYL TOP AND THE FRONT AND REAR WINDSHIELDS. I ALSO HAVE THE ORIGIANL GM CENTER CAPS AND WHEEL TRIM RINGS. THIS IS A SOLID BASE FOR A RESTORATION (NOT A PARTS CAR). THE CAR IS PRICED FAIR TO SELL QUICKLY. THANKS AND GOOD LUCK

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
