I bought the car in 2006, and have done additional restoration. The car was spyderized, including a turbo engine, before I bought it, and it is running. Odometer reads 84,787, but on the new turbo engine the mileage is 449. I have replaced one door that had some rust. In addition, I replaced the front floor pans (nicely welded!). The seats are in good shape, apparently recovered. I installed a new top and seatbelts in 2010, and replaced the stripping around the doors and windows. The car, originally Palomar red, has been repainted. The dash meters function, as does the turn signal (though it must be manually turned off). Headlights work. All natural heat and air, as the vents are not connected (no tubes). Carter YH carburetor and new serpentine belt installed in 2012. Comes with 1964 Shop Manual Supplement and spare carburetor, for parts.

The car runs well; the carburetor was just checked by the mechanic, and a tune-up would be a good idea.

I've loved this car. It is a lot of fun. Ralph Nader was wrong; it's a great car, at any speed.

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
