  • Original Factory interior is in very good condition. I see no rips, tears, or cracks.

  • I bought this car at the end of January of 2013.

  • This car was in Pennsylvania before we bought it. We have copy of previous owner’s car title of this car. This Pennsylvania Department of Transportation title copy is dated 7/20/11 and it has odometer miles showing as 016182 on that date. i.e. 16,182 miles. This confirms the low mileage reading.

  • This car now has a clear/clear Oregon Vehicle Certificate of Title.

  • I believe this car has never been wrecked, including anything minor.

  • My mechanic says this car is very clean in the engine bay and the under side of the car it was very clean with no rust and little road wear. That was the first thing I had checked since the car came to us from Pennsylvania.

  • In 2013, we paid a professional auto detail shop to have the under side of this car power washed and then a preventative undercoating was applied. We decided to do this to prevent any rust from happening ………the coating that was applied provides an added barrier between the underside of the car and the road/rocks/debris, which keeps the inside of the car ride slightly quieter, too.

  • All items below were done at a professional mechanic shop with ASE certified mechanics and all work is one year guaranteed at nationwide NAPA Auto Centers.

  • 2013 - Replace Radiator Hoses – upper hose, lower hose, four new hose clamps

  • 2013 – Coolant Fluid Serv Extd Afrz – Back flush cooling system, add anti freeze to specs, pressure test system &rad cap, checked thermostat & elec fan operation.

  • 2013 – replaced battery & terminal protection pieces.

  • 2013 – I decided that now matter how much I hand washed the front bumper, that it had a dirty white look/tone that was like tea stained teeth. So I had a local auto body and paint shop take off the front bumper and factory bumper stripes off of the bumper and then had it repainted whiter shade to better match the actual color of the car's original paint. Over twenty two years the front plastic bumper over 16K miles of travel had faded and darkened a different shade of color than the car. So I had the front bumper removed, then repainted and re-striped to a more uniform color look. The front bumper (or this car) has never been wrecked or dinged. The front bumper is the only part on the car that is not the original paint. But it looks better now than before I had got it re-painted.

  • 2013 - New front license plate frame/support piece for the front license plate - we also had it painted the exact white color of front bumper.

  • 2013 – Replaced broken/worn shift cables – replaced two custom made heim joint shifter cables, drilled oem fasteners, modified and fabricated connections as needed, adjusted and performance test as required to confirm integrity of repair. Replaced 4 new clips.

  • 2013 - Brake Inspection – test drove and removed all four wheels, inspected integrity of brake fluid, inspected master cylinder for leakage, Inspected brake lines front and rear, inspected for brake leakage, investigated rear auto adjusters and adjustment.

  • 2013 – resealed shift gear

  • Car has never been smoked in. In fact, I think it still slightly has that ‘new GM car smell’ inside.

  • Car is something that the former owner represented to be in mint condition, etc….the reality truth is that this is a very nice original condition car.....but is not perfect mint condition. But very nice. Previous owner also made claim that this low mile rare car will increase in value over time. I am not sure if that is the case or not. I do know these are real hard to find like this in real good condition with such low actual miles. But what I have learned is when you do get a nice low miles car that is older, most need new tires right away and then more (see above items I have done in 2013, for example) to get the car actually functioning and operating as well a it looks and feels.

  • No windshield cracks, no dash cracks that I see. I have brought this car up a level or two from the level it was at when I got it at the 16K mileage level.

  • Have the factory floor mats.

  • I do drive the car on occasional sunny afternoons every week or two just to keep everything working and flowing well. So there may be up to a hundred or two hundred more miles added, depending on if and when it sells.

  • There are two 1992 factory Chevy Lumina Service Manuals/books in the trunk. These books from 1992, book 1 and book 2, are each a couple inches thick. These books are specific to the Chevy Z34 model and each have tons of illustrations and literally spells out every detail part of this car’s body and engine. Great for future repair shop quick reference, or for plan B reference if you/they don’t have the info electronically as plan A.

  • Original factory owner’s manual booklet from GM is in the glove box.

  • The car comes with three pairs of original sets of GM keys – ignition and doors/trunk keys.

  • All lights work, everything works as it should, down to the unused cigarette lighter.

  • Reason for selling : an unforeseen recent IRS tax bill is due for us this year, so we are selling our collector car. Absolutely hate to see it go, was hoping to keep and enjoy this for a long time. But IRS is needing our $ this year soon, so car must go up for sale to raise funds. No trades.

  • Our family has invested over $15,000 in this car in total. The $13,900 ebay 'Buy it now price' sells this car for us at a loss of a couple thousand $ when all is said and done. We'll make no profit on this eBay sale compared to the grand total $ we have invested in the car to date.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

Valet mode captures joyride in red Corvette

Thu, Dec 18 2014

A man in California is among the first to catch a valet behaving badly in his 2015 Corvette using a controversial built-in recording feature. Dan Cowles told KTLA 5 when he bought his dream car, a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, he opted for the Performance Data Recorder. The Corvette PDR uses a high-definition camera mounted in the windshield header, a microphone in the cabin and a GPS receiver that record and track the sports car's movements and sounds. They work together to produce a video with telemetry overlay, so you can see acceleration rates, lap times and g-forces. The system can be customized to show extensive performance data, or simply video of your drive like a traditional dash cam. It also comes with Valet Mode, which locks the glove box, disables entertainment and records video. The audio recording feature ran afoul of several state's recording consent laws, but this video has no audio, indicating the fix may have been as easy as turning off the microphone. Cowles dropped off his hot red 'Vette with the valets at the Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts in Costa Mesa, CA. When he got his car back he checked the PDR and discovered footage of the valet taking a short, but intense, joyride in the garage. In the video, the valet finds a straightaway in a tiered parking garage and pushes the car to 50 miles per hour in five seconds before quickly stopping. He then parks the car without incident. The valet then gets out of the car and takes one more admiring look at the front. The valet company has yet to commented on the video, according to Fox News, but valets everywhere should be on notice; that little red Corvette you have your eye on may have its eyes on you.

GM may kill 6 car models as it works with UAW to tackle sales slump

Fri, Jul 21 2017

The president of the United Auto Workers union said on Thursday the union is talking with General Motors about the potential threat to plants and jobs from slumping U.S. car sales. GM's response will be more trucks and SUVs, and sources say at least six slow-selling car models may be killed off. "We are talking to (GM) right now about the products that they currently have" at underused car plants such as Hamtramck in Michigan and Lordstown in Ohio, and whether they might be replaced with newer, more popular vehicles such as crossovers, Dennis Williams told reporters. "We are tracking it (and) we are addressing it," Williams added. GM has cut shifts at several U.S. plants this year as inventories of unsold cars have ballooned. Industry analysts said more jobs could be at risk as the automaker wrestles with permanently shrinking production of small and midsized sedans. GM is reviewing whether to cancel at least six passenger cars in the U.S. market after 2020, including the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, which could be replaced in 2022 with a new gasoline-electric crossover model, Reuters has learned from people familiar with the plans. Other GM cars at risk include the Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Impala and Chevrolet Sonic, sources said. Some analysts have singled out GM's Hamtramck plant in Detroit as one of the most vulnerable because of plummeting car sales. The plant, which opened in 1985, builds four slow-selling models: Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet Impala, Cadillac CT6 and Chevrolet Volt. In the first half, it built fewer than 35,000 cars, down 32 percent from the same period in 2016, according to suppliers familiar with GM's U.S. production schedule. The typical GM assembly plant builds 200,000-300,000 vehicles a year.COMING ATTRACTIONS: TRUCKS AND SUVS GM must "create some innovative new products" to replace slow-selling sedans "or start closing plants," said Sam Fiorani, vice president of AutoForecast Solutions. The auto maker already has begun to shift future production plans from cars to trucks, according to Morgan Stanley auto analyst John Murphy. He estimates that fewer than 10 percent of the new vehicle models that GM will introduce over the next four years will be passenger cars, with the rest divided among trucks, SUVs and crossovers. GM plans to add production of the new Cadillac XT4 crossover next year to its Malibu sedan plant in Fairfax, Kansas.
