Early this year, I came across this cool little car in Ohio. I bought it with the intentions of restoring it myself as a summer project car. As luck would have it, I'm now on kidney dialysis and just can't do this type of work anymore much to my disappointment. The previous owner told me that he bought it 5 years ago from a woman in California who owned it for awhile and drove it across the country twice. It was trailered from Ohio to my home in PA and was driven off of the carrier. It started right up with no problems. The engine is a 4 cylinder with a 2 barrel Holley carburetor. The transmission is a 3 speed automatic on the floor. This car needs fully restored. The body itself is pretty solid with some body work that the last owner started. The roof is gray and is good with a very small tear on the drivers side. All the glass is present. The windshield is wrapped in newspaper and set into it's space but not attached yet. The back window is glass. The bumpers are with the car. The front one is on the car and the back one is off but in nice condition and ready to be attached. The wheels have hub caps on them. It needs the rocker panels replaced. I've already purchased them and they are included with the car. The brown vinyl interior is in fair condition. It needs a good cleaning. The dash pad is cracked but a new one is included to replace it. The passenger door panel is okay and on the car. The driver side door panel is not on the door but is in the car right now and not in very good shape. A new carpet is included but needs installed. All of the trim is present. It's off of the car but ready to be put back on. There is no back seat. The original tail lights were removed and stored in boxes and are in good condition. The original exhaust, which has dual pipes, is on the car and sounds good. The color of the car is called Groovy Green and quite an attention getter! I believe it was painted at least once in it's life time. That didn't really matter to me when I bought it though as I planned on repainting it anyway. Yes, this car needs some TLC but is an absolute great project car! It's just a really neat, fun car that could bring a lot of enjoyment to the right owner. It certainly would be a show stopper at any car show once it is brought back to life!

Car Club USA: CleanMPG Northwest Rally

Tue, May 19 2015

Car Club USA heads to Los Angeles for the CleanMPG Northwest Rally, where a group of like-minded hypermiling enthusiasts led by Wayne Gerdes attempts to drive from Los Angeles, CA, to Bend, OR, on one tank of fuel. For this challenge, Wayne tapped some of the most accomplished hypermilers in the world, including Guinness World Record holder Bob Winger and Mike Sefton, "the most fuel efficient driver in all of Canada." It doesn't take long for the competition to get heated. "They're not aggressive enough, and it's not going to save them anything by being soft right now," says Gerdes as the group attempts to navigate the Interstate traffic. "Driving in Los Angeles is a hyper miler's nightmare," says Winger. The trip will challenge both car and driver, while putting the latest fuel-efficient tech to the test. Wayne is piloting the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen TDI, Sefton drives the Audi A3 TDI, and Winger attempts the trek in a Honda Accord Hybrid. It's diesel versus hybrid tech on this fuel-efficient trip of a lifetime. Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog.

Here are 12 electric pickups in the works

Wed, Oct 21 2020

With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and Â“shatterproofÂ” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique Â“frunkgateÂ” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.
