Canby, Oregon, United States
|
1969 Chevelle Malibu: Original 307 V8 with turbo 350 automatic transmission. This car is all original and came with tilt wheel, rear defrost, power disc brakes, remote mirror, bucket seats, console, astro ventilation, remote mirror, and vinyl top.
THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS REGARDING THIS VEHICLES CONDITION ARE BASED ON MY OPINION. I have made every effort to describe this vehicle as accurately as possible and disclose any known issues associated with this vehicle at the present time. I welcome any questions regarding this vehicle during the auction period. MECHANICAL: This car runs and drives. I had the original carburetor rebuilt, but when i installed it , it always ran rich and did not perform right, so i bought another carburetor and it was rebuilt but never installed. The current mileage shown is 104,123 and i suspect it to be original because the car sat for 12 years before i purchased it. I took the body off the frame, wire wheeled the entire frame and painted it DE 1635 black from napa. I installed new body mounts and polyurethane bushings. Every component on the frame has been cleaned and painted. The engine ,transmission, and rear end are original to the car. The only non stock items on the car are new dual 2 1/2 inch exhaust with 40 series Flowmaster mufflers, and Edelbrock performer plus cam and lifter set. The transmission shifts good but after i installed it i noticed the front lip seal was leaking a very small amount so i bought a new one but never installed it. I have driven the car about 600 miles and added about a 1/4 of a quart of transmission fluid, so it is a very slow leak. The rearend is a ten bolt and im not sure the gear ratio. ELECTRICAL: All essential electrical related components(headlamps, taillights, turn signals, windshield wipers, and fuel gauge works. The factory clock does not work, and the rear defrost sometimes will work, and sometimes does not work. The car has never been smoked in and the cigarette lighter works and has never been used. The factory AM radio turns on and lights up but i do not hear any sound. The factory wiring harness is in very good shape. I have not found any corrosion in the fuse box. The wiring is not old and brittle and does not appear to be spliced into. The horn does not work. INTERIOR: The car has black interior. All the seats are good. All the door panels are in the car but they are a little rough. The center console is in the car. The car has all the seatbelts except for the passenger side shoulder belt buckle. I have all the armrests but the vinyl is starting to crack on them. The package tray insert is gone. I removed the carpet because it was ruined and i wanted to inspect the floors. The headliner is good. The sun visors are good but one is coming apart slightly on the drivers side. The plastic above the ashtray has 2 small holes where it looks like someone mounted something to it. On the instrument panel some of the paint is coming off. One of the hoses for the astro ventilation came off and is in the glovebox. EXTERIOR BODY: This car has some rust in the floor pans, but i think the holes can be welded. The trunk floor needs to be replaced. Behind the rear wheels is rusty, but i think they could be fixed with patch panels. the driver side is worse than the passenger side. I have not seen any rust in the front or rear window channels, but i cant be sure because the windows have not been removed. I can always take more photos if requested. I removed the front clip and repaired the rust in the front fenders with patch panels. The hood, fenders, and front filler panels are in primer. I sandblasted the original steel wheels and they are also in primer. I put brand new 205 75 14 optima tires on. The car has all the original chrome and stainless trim. The chrome and stainless steel trim is in used condition. The rear bumper is new. I removed some of the vinyl top to inspect for rust damage and found none. This car runs and drives good but is definitely a project. There are many new parts, but alot of original used parts. I hope the photos show everything, but i am happy to take more if needed. I have every receipt for anything done to this car since new. I have the protecto plate. I also have the order sheet and business card from the dealer when this car was ordered. I have the original keys and the knockout tags from the keys on the original dealer keychain. I have the first registration also. I am the second owner. I have every piece of paper this car came with except for the window sticker. The car has the original plates also. ALL BIDDERS PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING!!!

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
