This car definately gets attention when driving down the street! A real man's car! Own a piece of American history!

The previous owner had dropped a new engine and rolled back the odometer on the vehicle so I am unable to report the true milage. It currently reads 700 miles. I recently replaced the engine block and that piece is under a 12 month warranty. The car is running but the transmission is slipping in 1st gear.

The body of the car is in decent shape. It has a couple minor scratches but nothing that can't be buffed out. On the front bumper, driver's side there is a dent. The paint is flat black. The tires are in great shape. They have chrome rims in decent-good shape. The back bumper has not been put on but I am including two bumpers with sale of the car.

The interior recently had new leather seats installed. The dashboard is cracked and currently has a dashboard cover over it. The interior roof liner is missing. You can easily find this piece around $60-$80, a quick fix! The stereo is not currently working, I did not attempt to trouble shoot it so it could be something minor. All of the windows are in perfect condition except the front windshield which has a hairline crack in it. Heat works great. A/c not working but it could be something something as minor as adding some freon.

ALSO INCLUDED: 4 additional tires with rims, extra hood and 2 back bumpers. (I no longer have room for these items)

The title is free and clear. It is in my name so there will be no problem transferring it over once a sale has been finalized. You are purchasing this car "as-is" so please bid with confidence. Serious buyers with questions can contact me.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
