I have owned this car for several years it is a ss clone but I believe it has every piece. The paint was just freshend up by rad rides by troy's ex body man about a year and a half ago. That included getting the door jams repainted,new 2 inch steel cowl hood, and all the rock chips fixed and a few blemishes that had come through over the years cost me $2900 including the hood. The interior is the way I got it there are no rips or tears just dated, I just bought an original console and shifter,new gauges and stereo. It has a aluminum 4 core radiator with an electric fan. The engine is the original 283 that has double hump heads,noisy gear drive, has new edelbrock carb,water pump,rear pickup oil pan with a new pump one piece gasket. It has a new hei distributor with msd 6al box.The headers are 1 3/4 hooker super comp headers with 3 inch exhaust that exits in front of the rear tires. The transmission is a newly rebuilt turbo 400 with a new 2800-3200 stall with a trans cooler that is also new. There is also a bolt on doug nash overdrive that works great is operated electronically with a switch on the shifter that looked like it had been rebuilt at some time before I had gotten it. In putting on the overdrive I had to change driveshafts so the other driveshaft will be included if the overdrive was ever taken off all you would need is a short shaft cover and it could be eliminated. The rearend is a 9 inch ford that was narrowed 2 inches and has 3.70 gears,eaton posi and 31 spline moser axles. It has a tubular front clip with aluminum inner fender and a new radiator support. The gas tank is new as is the  3/8ths sending unit. The car has alumatic coilovers all the way around with gm disc brakes in all four corners as well and a chrome rack and pinion steering rack. The fuel and the brake lines are all new. The front has 2 inch drop spindles and the rear is adjustable where the coilovers mount. The rear is a four link with a sway bar and the front and the rear are all heim ends. I had to cut the driveshaft safety loop on top because the driveshaft rubbed when it was put at this height. Also a new optima red top battery last year. The converter is only good for 500 horsepower but the rest of the car is good for 600.  I'm sure that i forgot some thing's but there was a 406 i there for awhile that I had nothing but trouble with that's why the 283 got put back in that's why the rest of the drivetrain is so beefy. Sold as is and I'm not looking for trades I already have two other cars that need finishing. Thanks

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
