You may remember this car from my earlier listing. It generated a lot of interest but, obviously, did not sell. So has I said at the time it went into the shop. It is still a low mileage car that sat unloved and untouched for several years. But now it has a new 400 small block with a full Eagle 383 Stroker reciprocating assembly. .525/.502 Lunati roller cam. Lunati roller rockers. 2.02/1.60 210cc Pro-Comp heads with new guide plates, stud girdles, pushrods and screw in studs. The Victor Jr intake was blasted. At the same time the TH-400 was sent out to be cleaned and checked. It is a pretty rare Switch Pitch TH-400. The trans guy said it is in great shape. There is a B@M shifter. The rear is a Ford 9in. with 4.10 gears and disc brakes. With a full ladder suspension. I had all the brake lines and master cylinder replaced along with a new proportioning valve. Also I had the steering rag joint replaced with Borgeson u-joints. The car steers like a go kart and stops like one. I had the Tri-Y headers wrapped in black and the radiator core support blasted and painted black. It still has a Griffin radiator and two fans but now it has two relays for the fans. One fan runs when the engine is running the other comes on when needed. It has a new Holley Street Avenger carb. New chrome alternator with new polished aluminum brackets, pulleys and valve covers. A new distributor, 8.8 wires, new water pump and starter completes the package. It still needs final assembly but the drive train is ready. I have all the invoices for work done and all the front end sheet metal except the inner fender liners which don't fit anyway because of the tire/wheel combo. My reserve is a bit higher than before but still way less than it's worth. If you would like to talk e-mail me and we can set up a time. Somebody is going to get a great car at a great price.

GM laying off more than 4,000 workers Monday morning

Sat, Feb 2 2019

According to reports from Automotive News, The Detroit News, and CNN, General Motors plans to begin laying off more than 4,000 salaried workers starting Monday morning. In a statement to AN, a spokesperson for the automaker said, "We are not confirming timing. Our employees are our priority. We will communicate with them first." We've been expecting layoffs at General Motors since November, 2018. At the time, the Detroit-based automaker announced it would seek to shed 8,100 salaried employees, shut down five assembly plants in North America, and kill off several slow-selling models. One month earlier, GM offered buyout packages to 18,000 workers and said it would seek to cut its global workforce by 25 percent. A spokesperson said at the time the moves were "proactive steps to get ahead of the curve by accelerating our efforts to address overall business performance." The cost-cutting moves are expected to save GM up to $2.5 billion in 2019 and as much as $6 billion by 2020. David Kudla, CEO and chief investment strategist of Mainstay Capital Management, referred to the impending culling as "Black Monday" and told The Detroit News that the layoffs would begin around 7:30 a.m. and continue in waves throughout the coming days and weeks. GM plans to deliver on its fourth-quarter and full-year 2018 earnings report on Wednesday. President Donald Trump plans to deliver the annual State of the Union address a day earlier on Tuesday. We expect to hear plenty more from both sides over the next several days.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon

Sat, Jun 20 2015

MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.
