Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Up for auction is a very nice '72 Monte Carlo with its original drivetrain. The odometer reads 22,000 and some change. I believe it has 122,000 do to its age and the fact that it is 42 years old. The car has one newer repaint with very solid original panels throughout. The bottom of the doors and door jams are perfect. All body lines are as good as when it came out of the factory. There aren't any dings, dent, or scratches anywhere on the paint. The floor boards are solid and have never been patched as the same for the frame. All the stainless on the car is in great condition. The bumpers have been replaced with new ones do to some staining and discoloration to the originals. The vinal top was replaced do to fading and shrinking in some areas. The interior is all original except for a new carpet and rear package tray. The front bench seat has one small rip on the pipe seam on the driver's side and a small tear on the shoulder part of the passenger side. The dash has one crack in its usual area toward the center speaker. All the guages are in funtional order except for the famous clock. Yes, the factory tachometer works. Sporting its original drive train, this car has the 402 cubic inch, big block V-8, with Turbo 400 automatic transmission, and a 12 bolt non-posi rear end. A previous owner has replaced the factory exhaust manifolds with a set of ceramic coated headers with complete exhaust to the rear tailpipes. Along with that, some of the A/C components have been removed, but are somewhat available if the new owner wants them with the car. (Not sure what posseses people to remove original equipment and never put it back in its place). The engine has been refreshed with new cam & lifters, seals, berrings, and gaskets. It runs excellent, does not smoke, or leak. Same for the transmission. It has been fully rebuilt with a mild shift kit. Shifts smoothly and promptly. Car has the original Rally Wheels with BF Goodrich radial T/A white letter tires. This is a turn key car that you can drive anywhere and for any length of time with no worries. It has a nice smooth ride on the road and is very responsive in every way. Not to forget to mention a real head turner on the road.

The car will be sold to the winning bidder in as is/where is condition do the fact that it is 42 years old and does not come with a warranty because it is privately owned. A paypal deposit of $500 will be due within 24 hours from the end of the auction, with the balence do within 7 days from the end of the auction. Buyer will be fully responsible to pick up the vehicle, or arrainge for the vehicle to be picked up. I do suggest that if you wish to inspect or send someone to inspect the car before you bid, you may do so. I have described the car to the best of my knowledge and you won't be disappointed. The car looks great in the photos but satisfaction is rendered when you see it in person. I ask that you please respect my 100% feedback. If you do not have the funds or have to get permission to buy this type of vehicle, then please do not bid on my auction. Thank you for understanding and happy bidding!

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes

Tue, 28 Aug 2012

Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery

Tue, Oct 28 2014

Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 Â– marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." Â– Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings Â– the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera Â– but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.

GM expected to debut two new crossovers at Detroit Auto Show

Thu, Dec 15 2016

Next month, General Motors is expected to debut two new crossovers at the North American International Auto Show. That's according to Automotive News and The Wall Street Journal, which reports that the successors to the aging Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Terrain will finally make their debut. The two crossovers have been on sale since 2009 and 2010 respectively and are due for updates as the competition has newer models on the market. Both crossovers play in growing market segments where sales success is crucial for the respective brands. GM, and the automotive industry as a whole, has been shifting its focus towards crossovers in the last few years. The Traverse and the Terrain are some of the oldest SUVs on the market and are in dire need of an update. GMC's Acadia, the former corporate clone to the Traverse (and Buick Acadia), switched to a new platform in 2016. And the Terrain's platform-mate, the Chevrolet Equinox, was revealed a few months ago. Both the new Chevy and GMC models are expected to go on sale late in 2017 as 2018 models. Look for a follow up to the Traverse's sister, the Buick Enclave, to make an appearance soon.
