1968 Chevrolet Chevelle on 2040-cars
Aguanga, California, United States
1968 Chevrolet Chevelle This 1968 Chevy Chevelle is in restorable condition. The small block engine runs but has a bad knock. Clear California title in hand, no back DMV fees, this car is on Planned Non-Operational status. The odometer reading of 51,947 miles is INACCURATE. Please see below for more details: Body: Serious paint fade and oxidation, but the body is solid. The only concerns are rust holes on each front fender (see pix), behind the wheel wells and someone had installed fiberglass fender flares on the rear fenders and the flares are damaged, one having been completely knocked off. It has an after market sunroof and the windshield has caulking along the upper edge. All glass is good. There is a ding on the leading edge of the front left fender, and some marks on rear bumper area. Also a white spot in the center of the right rear taillight. Rocker panels are rust-free. Floor pans are solid. Trunk is solid. Bumpers in decent but not perfect condition, grill the same. Engine/Transmission: The small block engine is believed to be a 350, and not the original engine. This is not an SS car and the 396 badge is misleading. The engine does run but has a serious knock and will have to be replaced or rebuilt. The automatic transmission is a Turbo 350, column shift. Drive Train/Suspension/Chassis: The front end needs bushings and possibly tie rod ends. The chassis is rust free (see pix). The shocks will need replacing. Brakes work well. Wheels are mismatched and the tires are old and not to be trusted. Interior: OK, this car had some "custom" work done way back in the eighties. The diamond tuck interior is in need of replacement (to say the least), the driver's side of the bench seat is badly shredded. The dash is cracked, the carpet falling apart and the headliner gone, though the rods remain. There are also quite a few accessories wired in and a mess of wiring under the dash by the steering wheel (see pic). Title/Registration Status: Clear California title, this Chevelle is being offered by owner. The California registration is "Planned Non-Operational" status, which means that it is parked and no fees are owed or occurring. Please examine the pix carefully. We welcome any questions you may have regarding this item. Buyer responsible for shipping, seller can assist with arrangements and coordinating with shipper. This car can possibly be delivered by seller for a fee to CA, OR, AZ, NV, WA. Email for details. Appointments to come and see the car can be made by contacting the seller.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
