important........this vehicle does not belong to me, iam listing it for a friend who does not like to mess with computers. any questions about the cars condition or price must be directed to him by calling him at 267-347-9683. any questions emailed to me will go unanswered as iam leaving for vacation and will be away from my computer for the week. this auction is for an unmolested, original paint, survivor 1972 monte carlo. my buddy bought this car @ 10 years ago. he is owner number 3, the 2 previous owners were in the same family. my friend had been searching for one of these first generation monte carlos for a restoration project and purchased this car because of its originality, one family ownership and 66,289 documented miles. he had planned to fully restore this car but after addressing a few minor problems it was set aside until other projects were completed. then as so often happens time to work on this car never happened and now with other projects taking his time, he would like to find a new home for this monte carlo. the original 350 2bbl runs like a clock, uses no oil, no valve tick, simply purrs like a kitten. as the pics show other then maitainence items like hoses, filters and the battery the engine compartment is all original. my friend did swap in an HEI distributor, but that's a no brainer update which helps the car, run and start much better. the original distributor comes with the car. the factory air conditioning is complete but needs charged. the turbo 350 3 speed automatic trans preforms great and is shifted thru the console mounted shifter. the car is factory equipped with power steering and power brakes with front discs. the frontend has been rebuilt and a new master cylinder, front calipers and linings have been installed. the rear axle is original and the car rides on 15x7 rally wheels with BFG radials. the car drives great. the body is very solid with minor rust issues on the bottom insides of both front fenders and rear quarters however I feel it can all be corrected without panel replacement. the trunk seal leaks, the rust in the trunk area seen in the pics is only surface rust........no rust thru. the doors open and close solidly and all the glass is good but the windshield needs resealed. the original paint color is called midnight bronze. all the paint is original except for the passenger side fender which was repainted long ago after a minor parking lot snafu. the car will need stripped and repainted as the paint is severely checked. the bumpers and all trim are in good shape. the vinyl roof will need replaced as it appears at one point someone tried to paint it another color. the interior is very nice. the dashpad and instrument panel are perfect and the seats, door panels and center console are nice also. the carpet will need to be replaced as will the headliner thanks to a mouse. options are rear defogger and factory am/fm radio, although the radio does not work, the dash clock also is not working. my friend holds a clear title for this car plus much of the original paperwork as shown in the photos. a 500.00 deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end, the balance to be paid before the car is taken. for local pickup the car is located about an hour north of Philadelphia and within easy access of the Pennsylvania turnpike. if the car is to be picked up by a transport company my friend has agreed to help out as needed. |

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?
