1981 Chevy Malibu
We, at Finish Line Auto Restorations, specialize in the procurement and restorations of American Muscle Cars.
This Malibu is owned by a customer of ours who asked us to sell for him as he does not have storage space for it any more and he is not very computer literate.
The car has been sitting for about a year but fired up and ran fine after some tinkering. There is old gas in it and the tank should be drained and new fuel put in.
I drove the car about 20 miles and it runs and drives fine.
The car is fairly solid and the paint is decent. There are a couple of small spots where the clear coat faded and a couple of small bubbles.
The trunk is pretty solid.
There is a turbo 350 tranny with a shift kit in the car that chirps second gear and works fine.
The motor is a NOM Chevy small block that runs well. No smoke or funny noises and plenty of power.
The car needs an exhaust system, it's fairly loud and the pipes are hanging a little low.
The tires are radial T/A's all around with decent tread.
Interior needs some work or a nice seat cover.
There is a remote locking system for the doors and a popper for the trunk.
Fiberglass hood with pins.
Power Steering and Brakes.
Please ask all questions or come and inspect the car before you bid. After you win the auction is not the time to decide if you want the car or not. These auctions cost money and time and I am doing this as a favor for a customer.
I will have someone available to assist in case you want to send a shipper for the car once you have won.
This is a no reserve auction so, if someone does not offer me a ridiculously large amount of money, the high bidder will own it.
Good luck.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
