The flowing information is long and detailed if you still have interest!

 

WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM:  My name is Ron Watson and I live in the small town of Athens, TennesseeAthens is called the

friendly city”. We are located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in east Tennessee. I am 67 years old and work with

my son Keith who is now 41. I am now retired and living my dream restoring, selling and improving classic cars. For 12 years I was

 an auto mechanics instructor at Tennessee Technology Center here in Athens. I am also a veteran of the US Army; I served as a

Chinook helicopter mechanic, crew chief and instructor in the late 60s, I did spend a year in Vietnam.  I’m Southern Baptist faith

and proud to be an American.  I’ve been married to the same good woman for 44 years.

LIFE IS GOOD IN THE GREEN HILLS OF EAST TENNESSEE!

 

WILL I SELL THE CAR OFF EBAY MOTORS? Yes, I know the lots of you are not registered on ebay and use it as a research tool.

 

MY REAL PRICE IS $14,999. That's what it takes to buy the car on or off ebay motor. I have been doing this for a long time and I

 know the game, I don't play it the same as most and I sell every car I put for sell.

 

PLEASE NO TRADES!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Thank you, but I will not trade, why should I trade when I have a hot selling car, I don't need motor

 cycles, boats, jewelry or your used false teeth.

 

I DO NOT SHOW CARS ON SUNDAY!!!!! I worship on sunday, I spend time with my family and I rest. I'm doing this because I love it,

 "I need a day off". I will be happy to show you cars 6 days a week, call in advance to set up a time, "I'm 67 years old and life is

 more than just cars".

 

Sorry, but I do not do videos. I'm old and don't want to learn and mess with them, I sell my cars anyway. 

 

IS THERE ANY RUST PROBLEMS?    The underside looks good, but not sanded smooth and detailed for show. The frame,

 supports and bottom panels all look very good to me.

 

IS THERE ANY ACCIDENT DAMAGE?  None that I can find and the title states none.

 

WHY AM I SELLING THIS CAR?     I’m a retired mechanic/auto-mechanic instructor/was a Army helicopter mechanic and

instructor. When I find a truck or car I like for a good price I buy it fix things and resell for a fair profit. I did not

restore this car, I just fixed a few things.

 

IS THIS A MATCHING NUMBERS CAR? No! 

 

 PAINT:    The paint is shinny, I consider the car straight when you look down the sides, the panel fit is pretty good, no runs,

 the doors close  good, no dents, no rust bubbles.  The stripes are painted on and look good. This is not a perfect $20,000

paint job on a $15,000 dollar car, its a good driver, if you look for a spec you will find it, if you look for a touched up chip

 you will find it, but its a good looking car with decent paint.

 

CHROME:      The chrome and bright work is nice,  the chrome bumper look good, the emblems are nice, the grill has a couple of

tiny scuffs.

 

INTERIOR:   No smoke smell, the seat covers are good, the carpet good, the door panels good, the headliner good with minor waves,

the plate around the shifter has some cracks, the dash pad is good, the dash cluster has a crack in the corner.

 

 

RADIO: After market, AM/FM CD that is decent, one of the package rack grill is missing.

 

IS THIS A REAL Z28? I don't think so, but it looks like one.

  

UNSERSIDE:    Solid, but not painted shinny to put mirrors under at the car show.

 

GLASS:    The side glasses roll up and down good and look good, the windshield is clear.

 

ENGINE:    Engine runs strong,  no knocks or rattles, no bad oil leaks (some drops like most), no blue smoke.

 Its a good engine and it is clean.

EXHAUST SYSTEM:  Good used condition, the mufflers are by Flow Master.

 

TRANSMISSION:   It is a  3 speed automatic Turbo 350, it shifts good.

 

REAR-END:     It has no bearing noises, no growls, its a 10 bolt.

 

BRAKES:  Power brakes that stop good.

 

STEERING:   The cars drives very good, it is power steering.

 

WHEELS AND TIRES:     Factory Rally wheel, they are 15 inch with decent tires.

 

LIGHTS:     They work, turn signals work, headlights work, tail lights work, brake lights work, dome light is not working. We took

 the headlight shades off, they come with the car.

 

GUAGES:   Gas gauge works and the others are in a pod under the dash, the in dash tachometer is not working.

 

WIPERS WORK! HEATER BLOWER motor wire is pulled out, it is not working.

 

EXHAUST SYSTEM: The car has the deep loud Muscle Car sound, the mufflers look like Flow Masters, the headers are full

tubes and not coated the system is in good condition, but not new.

 

 

 

HOW DO THE DOORS AND HOOD OPEN AND CLOSE and panel fit?    I think the doors fit and open very good,

 the cowl hood fit is a little off like most.

 

WOULD I DRIVE THE CAR HOME ON A LONG TRIP: I never recommend driving a old car home, I just test drive them

 and drive them some around town, but I do think this car would drive anywhere.

 

DID I RESTORE THIS CAR? No!

 

   

 

 

 TRADES: Please no trades, they never work out and are just to hard!

 

**************I DO NOT SHOW CARS ON SUNDAY AND I'M HARD TO GET ON THE PHONE, PLEASE EMAIL ON SUNDAY!

 

 

 

CONTACT INFO: my cell is 423-506-8987, I do not answer when driving, while meeting with people, after about 8:00 PM                                                                      Eastern Time or on Sunday. Please leave a voice mail and I’ll get back. I do check my emails several times a day.

     cell    423-506-8987     email:  dreamcar@live.com

 

 

PAPERWORK: I know what to do! WE DO NOT HAVE A SHOW ROOM WITH OVERHEAD! We are just a father/son 2 man operation,                                                           but we are a Tennessee licensed/bonded car dealer and have sold cars all over the US and exported many.

 

THIS IS NOT AN AUCTION, THIS IS A FIXED PRICE LISTING: I reserve the right to stop the listing at any time and sale

 the vehicle “come look”.

 

I RESERVE TH RIGHT TO STOP THE LISTING AT ANY TIME. THE CAR IS FOR SALE ON THE LOCAL MARKET.

 

WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED:  The car is here at my garage in Athens, Tennessee. Athens is in east Tennessee, we are

50 miles south of  Knoxville. Look at a Road Atlas and follow interstate 75 south from Knoxville. I live one mile and one turn

 from the interstate exit. My zip code is 37303. The closest large airport is Knoxville. Athens does have a good small airport,

 but has no commercial flights.

 

US OR EXPORT "Nations Auto Transport" is located in the Kansas City area: This is a good company that will handle any type

of transport in the US or overseas.

   Call Jim Page....his work number is 816-295-6887 and his email is jpage@shipnat.com

 

MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT: The area code for Athens, Tennessee is 37303. I live 1 mile off a major interstate (I-75)

and 35 miles south of interstate 40,  so transport is usually very fast.

 

PAYMENT: I require a $250 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car. I will take this by PayPal, but not full payment.

 

         Option 1: Pay the old school way with green face to face.

         Option 2: Pay by check, I will wait till the most checks clear, I have had

                     a fake bank certified check.  I will take a bank cashiers check with lots of

                     identification and advance notice so I can check you out.                                                                

         Option 3: The safest is to let our banks handle it, my bank is a

                           member of the US Federal Reserve, this is called wire

                        transfer. I will not give out my banking information until I get your information.

          

INSPECTIONS: Please come look and be happy. All inspections are required to be done before the end of the listing. I listed

this car as I see it as a 67 year old car restorer, please come and judge it for your self. I judge the car to my standards,

this may not be yours. Paid inspectors are OK, but have to be very critical to cover their back sides, "come look". I understand

 how hard it is to buy a car without looking, but I think you should come look yourself.  I don’t like paid inspectors, I like for

the person that is buying to inspect for themselves. I think its fine to send a friend to inspect for you.

 To make it clear, don’t hit the buy now button and then inspect, come inspect first, I will not stop the listing and wait for a inspector!

 

TRADES: Please no trades!

 

I do not finance cars! If your going to finance, please get pre-approved.

 

BOTTOM LINE:    My price is really $14,999, I am firm and asking more on the local market. The game is not rocket science,

ask a price and come down, but I don't like that game. It’s not fun to bargain over the cell phone all day long with people that

 live 2000 miles away and are not going to buy anyway. My firm price is the Buy Now price. I have sold every car I have ever

 tried to, so I’m not motivated to be bargained down.

 

 

 

PLEASE!!!!!!   PLEASE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! Come look at this vehicle.

Please don’t hit the Buy Now button unless your ready to really buy it!

Do your research, call me with questions, read my feed backs,

I am ebay verified; this means they say I’m a real person in a real place.

 

I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO SELL YOU THE VEHICLE WITH-OUT AN INSPECTION; YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE

A LOT OF NERVE AND PLEASE DON’T BE A CRY BABY if you don't come and inspect the car.

 

Read the ME section on the upper right hand part of the listing marked seller info.

 

Thank You,

GM cutting production at two plants

Thu, Feb 26 2015

General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

Here’s how 20 popular EVs fared in cold-weather testing in Norway

Sat, Mar 21 2020

Electric vehicles are known to suffer diminished performance in cold weather, but some do a better job than others hanging onto their range capacity while cabin heaters and frigid outdoor temperatures sap power from their batteries. Recently, the Norwegian Automobile Federation put the 20 of the best-selling battery-electric vehicles in the country to the test, to see not only how winter weather affected their range but also their charging times. The major findings: On average, electric vehicles lost 18.5% of their official driving range as determined by the European WLTP cycle. Electric vehicles also charge more slowly in cold temperatures. And interestingly, the researchers learned that EVs don’t simply shut down when they lose power but instead deliver a series of warnings to the driver, with driving comfort and speed levels maintained until the very last few miles. Because itÂ’s Norway, the worldÂ’s top market for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles by market share, the test included many EVs that arenÂ’t available here in the U.S. But there are many familiar faces, among them the Nissan Leaf, Tesla Models S, 3 and X, Hyundai Kona (known here as the Kona Electric) and Ioniq, and Audi E-Tron. In terms of range, the top-performing EV was the Hyundai Kona, which lost only 9% of its official range, which the WTLP rated at 449 kilometers, or 279 miles, compared to its EPA-rated range of 258 miles on a full charge. It delivered 405 km, just enough to nudge it ahead of the Tesla Model 3, which returned 404 km. Other top performers included the Audi E-Tron, in both its 50 Quattro (13% lower range) and higher-powered 55 Quattro (14% lower) guises; the Hyundai Ioniq (10% lower); and Volkswagen e-Golf (11% lower). At 610 km (379 miles) the Tesla Model S has the longest WLTP range of all models tested and went the furthest, but still lost 23% of its range, though it also encountered energy-sapping heavy snow at the end of its test, when many cars had dropped out. The Model 3 lost 28% of its range. The worst performer? That goes to the Opel Ampera-e, better known stateside as the Chevrolet Bolt. It traveled 297 km (about 184 miles) in the test, which was nearly 30% lower than its stated WLTP range. We should also note that Opel, now owned by Groupe PSA, is phasing the car out in Europe and that Chevy recently upgraded the Bolt here in the U.S.
