For sale is my rare 1966 Chevy Caprice 4 Door. This is a 3-owner car from Rockford, Illinois' long time Chevy dealer (I have original documentation - see pictures) Lou Backrodt, purchased new on December 9, 1965. This is an original, unrestored, rust free and "unmolested" car that was stored in a temperature controlled garage by a widow for 25 years. I purchased it (I'm the 3rd owner) from a long-time, well respected professional mechanic and hot rod shop owner in Rockford in March of 2011.

Features of the car include:

- Factory Air

- Never been restored, original car

- Rare 4 door model, which we believe that approximately fifty (50) Big Block 396 Sport Sedans were built for 1966

- Big Block 396 motor (325 horsepower)

- NEW dual master cylinder and disc brakes added in May 2011 for drivability and safety ($2,800 in receipts)

- ALL original documentation, including original PROTECTO plate, dealership documentation, 1966 warranty info and Official GM Manuals

- 57075 original miles on the car

- Black interior

There are a few minor paint chips on the hood near the grill, as this was a driver for a time in the 60s and 70s. I've had this car detailed three times in two years, and have driven it only 200 miles in that time.

I reserve the right to end this auction before it ends. Feel free to call with any questions and I am available on my cell phone at all times: 630-803-0886. You are welcomed to see the car in person in Carmel, Indiana.

Happy bidding!!!!!

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
