Rohnert Park, California, United States

Up for auction is a nice, original 1973 Chevy Monte Carlo, 2 door coupe, with the landau vinyl top. The car is a nice, original, California driver car. It is not a show car, but a very clean, original car. The body is very straight, and only has 2 tiny spots of rust on the entire car (shown in pictures) The Monte has a replacement GM 350 crate motor, with a Edelbrock built Quadrajet carb, Pro comp distributor, ignition box, and coil. It has single chamber flowmasters, and new dual exhaust. The interior is all original black, with a bench seat and a rally dash (tach and gauges) it has a tilt wheel, and the factory 8 track radio! It is and original air conditioning car, but the compressor seized up, so it was removed. The heater core has been bypassed because the core was leaking.

 Everything except the heater/ac works on the car: wipers, all lights, all gauges, etc etc. The car has black Chevy ralley wheels 15x7 in front and 15x8 in the rear, with brand new raised white letter tires. The car has the factory front disc brakes, and drum rears. It is a blue plate car, and also comes with the original GM keys. It has the original white paint, that is in pretty good condition for its age. It has a couple of spots that have been touched up with spray paint. All of the factory moldings have been removed, but the original mounting pegs are all there. The trunk has been recoated with zolotone, and does not have any rust.

 The car runs and drives great, no issues at all, the exhaust has a nice muscle car tone, the trans goes right in gear, the brakes work great.

 If you are looking for a pre smog muscle car, without the big pricetag of a Camaro, Chevelle, Nova, etc, this might be a great option. This is a real nice, driver quality car, that could be brought to the next level, if someone wanted to.

 

 Thanks for looking, and please check my feedback. If there is any questions, please email me. Mike

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
