If you have ever had the urge to buy a true classic, collectible car that you need not spend a fortune to buy it or keep it maintained then this is the car for you.  Absolutely the best driving muscle car I have ever driven.  I have owned approximately 1,000 cars that I would consider muscle cars.  This car is as original as it gets.  Numbers matching engine, transmission and rear end with a 3.42 posi.  Muncie M-21 with original shifter that was rebuilt in California prior to my ownership.  Engine has had a cam change and an aluminum intake and MSD ignition added.  The engine has a nice lope through the flowmasters.  I have the original intake, distributor and valve covers.  This just gives it a little more pep but retains its originality.  Alternator is original and A/C is still on R-12 and works great.  Still has the original shifter and also the original standard-shift radiator.  Car never goes over 210 in the heat with the A/C on.  Speedometer shows 58,676 miles but I cannot verify this.  All indicators are that this is correct.  All original interior is in excellent condition.  Dash pad has a small crack near the speaker.  I have a cap on the dash at this time.  I have the build sheet for this vehicle and it matches up rather nicely.  It shows windshield antenna which is rare.  It has the original HR-70-15 spare in the trunk.  Has an aftermarket AM FM in the glove box and the original 8 track still on the dash.  Key buzzer still functions as does the shift lock from the transmission to the steering column.  It must be in reverse to get the key out of it.  Drives absolutely straight with no shakes or pull.  A pleasure to own and drive.  All of the gauges work perfectly.  Currently has 17” American Racing Hopster wheels on it - which are not my taste but look great and run smoothly.  The tires have approximately 1,600 miles on them.  2 1/2 “ true dual exhaust with flowmasters and it sounds great.  Clutch does not chatter nor slip, it engages perfectly and pulls great.  I had it painted 6 years ago and it has held up great.  Paint looks deep and glossy.  I also had a new vinyl top put on at the same time with the original material of course.  Rea end is quiet and grabs perfectly.  Absolutely no issues – get in it and drive.  The original exhaust manifolds and smog are still in place so there are no headers to leak.  Has matching number carburetor on the aluminum intake.  Engine starts great and idles at 800 RPM and lopes great.  It has great muscle car sound.  I think I covered it all, but look at the pictures and if you have a question that I did not cover, give me a call.  806-236-5911C or 806-373-9736W.  The only reason for selling is the purchase of a house.  Please do not be a bogus bidder – man-up!  If you meet the reserve, then I expect you to complete the auction.  I do not need bids to help sell my car.  The car itself will sell on its own merit.  I will help on this end to deliver it to the shipper of your choice.  Title is clear and in my name.  Payment of cash or cashier’s check prior to pick up.  Vehicle will be released after all funds are cleared and in my hand.  No warranty – I think it expired a few years ago.  Check my feedback – good luck and God bless.  Free delivery to lower 48 states if you use Buy-It-Now.

Ford Police Interceptors dominate Michigan State Police testing

Tue, Nov 1 2016

Once again, Ford Motor Company builds the fastest police vehicles. The Blue Oval touted the news in an official release following Michigan State Police and Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department testing. Ford did very well. Except for one acceleration metric – zero to 10 miles per hour – the Blue Oval's Taurus and Explorer-based cop cars were the quickest, with particular praise coming for the EcoBoost-powered models, which bested Chevrolet and Dodge's V8-powered variants. Dearborn's products also posted the fastest average times around MSP's vehicle dynamics course. But it wasn't all positive for Ford. The only four-cylinder in the contest, the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost Ford SSP Sedan, had both the lowest top speed, 120 mph, and the slowest acceleration figures. It was also the slowest in track testing. Ford's products also failed to match the braking and top speeds of its rivals from Detroit and Auburn Hills – the rear-drive Charger Pursuit posted the best braking stats of the entire test, while the V8-powered Chevrolet Caprice hit the highest top speed, at 155 mph. Ford did score a top speed award, among SUVs, but at 132 mph, the naturally aspirated Police Interceptor Utility had to share its award with the equally fast, rear-drive Chevrolet Tahoe. The LA County Sheriff's timing isn't publicly available, but according to Ford, the EcoBoost-powered police cars put on a similarly impressive show for cops on the West Coast. We've assembled a spreadsheet on Google Docs that offers an easy to browse comparison of the different stats assembled by the Michigan State Police, and divided the vehicles between standard V6-powered sedans, high-performance sedans (EcoBoost and V8 models), and SUVs.

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06s en route to owners [w/video]

Tue, Dec 2 2014

Pretty much right on schedule, Chevrolet has begun shipping the very first customer examples of its 650-horsepower, supercharged Corvette Z06. In fact, according to General Motors, the earliest Z06s could be in customer hands by the end of this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, manager of Chevy's Bowling Green Assembly plant. "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." Prices for the Z06 start at $78,995 for the hardtop model, while the first-ever Z06 Convertible kicks off at $83,995. Take a look below for the official press release from Chevrolet, and while you're down there, we've slipped in a new video of Corvette Racing's Tommy Milner taking a hot lap of Road Atlanta in a Z06, complete with some Performance Data Recorder footage. First 2015 Corvette Z06s on Their Way to Customers Most capable model in Chevrolet's history now shipping from Bowling Green BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Chevrolet is now shipping the all-new 2015 Corvette Z06 coupe from Bowling Green Assembly and some early customers could receive the much-anticipated supercar later this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, plant manager of General Motors' Bowling Green Assembly plant, "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." The new Corvette Z06 offers the most choice for customers in the model's history. It is the first Z06 to offer an available eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and, thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. In addition, it is the first time since 1963 that the Z06 is available as a convertible – which will arrive in early 2015. The new LT4 supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine is SAE-certified at 650 horsepower (485 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 650 lb-ft of torque (881 Nm) at 3,600 rpm – making the 2015 Corvette Z06 the most powerful production car ever from General Motors and one of the most powerful production cars available in the United States. To balance performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages a trio of advanced technologies – direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing –with a new, more efficient supercharger. The LT4 helps make the Corvette Z06 the most capable car in the brand's history.

With only 246 Volts sold in Australia, Holden not getting next-gen model

Tue, Apr 28 2015

The Chevrolet Volt has not been the resounding success General Motors hoped for here in the United States. But it's fortunes in Chevy's home country are nothing compared to how poorly it's done down under. Only 246 Volts have been sold in Australia, where the car is branded as a Holden, since its debut in 2012. That's not just a bad showing – it's an absolute disaster. According to Motoring.com.au, it was the Volt's astonishing $60,000 price tag, combined with a lack of interest from Aussie drivers, that killed the car's chances. What's fascinating about this development, though, is that it doesn't necessarily seem to be Holden that's pulling the plug. Instead, it's the Volt's Hamtramck, MI factory, which is preparing to shift into production of the second-generation model that seems to be taking the blame. According to Motoring, the plant confirmed that it will only build the Gen 2 plug-in in left-hand-drive form, basically ruling out a model for Australia. "Electric and hybrid vehicles haven't taken off in Australia," Holden's director of communications, Sean Poppitt, told Motoring. "Considering the lack of infrastructure, the lack of government incentives, the large distances between cities, it's a tough sell." The death of the right-hand drive Volt won't be the only loss of business in Hamtramck. Opel has already confirmed that it will drop the plug-in's European fraternal twin, the Ampera, while the next-gen Chevy won't make the trip across the pond either. Related Video:
