This has been a Texas car since new. No rust issues. I am the 3rd owner. The odometer reads 145,000 miles and is accurate. The 2nd owner bought the car from a workmate back in the 70s and kept it till 2012. At 135,000 miles he did a major rebuild on the motor and trans in 1988. In 1992 he had the car repainted with basecoat/clearcoat and had a new vinyl roof installed. The car was then stored in his garage for 20 years until I bought it. The paint still looks like new. There are 2 minor scratches on the very front of the rf fender when he backed it out of his garage. The bumpers still look great and all the trim is in good condition. The interior is original but could use replacing. It still shows well but replacing it would make this a great looking vehicle.The dash is intact as the new stereo system was installed without cutting the faceplate area. Also the rear speakers were installed in the original location and the rear deck was uncut. The front speakers were installed in custom front kick panels.The carpet and logo floor mats are new. The front suspension has been redone, all new shocks and rear coil springs done. The driveshaft has been rebalanced. I have replaced the steering gearbox.master cylinder,distributor,plug wires,front brakes have been overhauled,(new rear shoes in trunk). The a/c system has been gone thru and works fine. We enjoyed the 2013 Hot Rod Power Tour last June. Drove 3200 miles in 8 days without a problem.The tires have 5000 miles on them and 1 wheel center cap is cracked by the tire shop but is available online. One bit of trivia is the fact that we got 13 miles per gallon on the tour when all I expected was 10 (log book in glovebox). This car draws compliments very time we stop for gas cause people rarely see them. With a little investment this is an outstanding car for the money. Required from the winning bidder is a 500.00 non-refundable deposit due through PayPal within 24 hours of the auctions close, balance due in cash or by cetified cashiers check within 7 days.Shipping costs and arrangement are the buyers responsibility and we reserve the right to terminate the auction early.

Meet the Buick Velite 7, the Chevy Bolt's Chinese cousin

Wed, Jun 17 2020

The Buick Velite 7 has officially been revealed after having been leaked and spied a few months ago. The name derives from Buick's line of electrified models it sells in China, of course the design shows it's most closely related to the Chevy Bolt EV. Buick hasn't revealed many details about it, and only one photo, but we do get to see it and we also have a range estimate. The range estimate is 500 kilometers on the NEDC cycle, which translates to 311 miles. That's actually less than the NEDC estimate for the Bolt EV, which is 565 kilometers or 351 miles, which increased for the 2020 model year from 520 kilometers or 323 miles. Of course NEDC figures tend to be much higher than EPA numbers, which rated the current Bolt EV at 259 miles and the previous version at 238. As such, we would expect this Buick to have an EPA range closer to 210 to 220 miles. We don't know what resulted in the lower range, but it could have something to do with additional weight or slightly worse aerodynamics. It could be both. Design-wise, the Buick is clearly based on the Bolt, but has a more aggressive front bumper and a trendy partially floating roof. It also seems to have a slightly boxier, taller profile, mainly because of the nose. Buick hasn't released any other details about the crossover, preferring to save them for the car's launch later this year. Since it seems so closely related to the Bolt, it probably has the same drivetrain: a single electric motor sending 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via a single-speed transmission.

GM China President says automaker could export vehicles from China to US

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

At a press conference on Saturday at the Shanghai Motor Show, General Motors announced plans to further expand its presence in the Chinese market. Among those commitments are plans to build four new plants by the end of 2015, giving the automaker the capacity to produce around five million vehicles a year in the country.
In order to make the most of that expansion, GM is adding 400 dealerships in China this year alone (for a total of 4,200 sales points), and it's eyeing 5,100 dealers by 2015. Yet not all of that production will stay in China - GM is planning to increase exports as well. Officials estimate the company will export somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 Chinese-built vehicles this year - a record. And it's gunning for more.
Autoblog asked GM China president Bob Socia (above) if that means the company might eventually export new vehicles built in China to the United States, and he responded:
