Sanger, Texas, United States

All Gucci emblems in-tact but hood ornament is missing. Original hubcaps with double G emblem included and in good condition. Carriage roof fabric is faded, but all other interior Gucci fabrics in very good condition. All 4 floor mats included, but have cracking and staining. Seat leather is dried and cracking and seams are splitting in some places, mainly driver's seat. Hood has some rust damage, but rust on the rest of the vehicle is limited and rust on undercarriage was sanded and sealed during engine and transmission refurbishing. Almost all mechanical parts have been replaced and fuel injection was replaced with Edelbrock carb and intake manifold. Extensive records of all parts replaced, with receipts, are included. Tires are new with 200-300 miles on them. For more details about what work has been done so far, please send a message. Milage assumed to be original, as when I had the car shipped from Florida it had 1982 registration sticker on windshield. 

I purchased this vehicle from a seller in Florida several years ago. I began restoring it, but will not be able to complete the process. Almost everything except the rear differential has been replaced or refurbished, mechanically. Fuel tank was also cleaned and resealed, and the fuel injection system was removed and replaced with a carb setup. Custom true dual exhaust was also fitted onto the car, including headers. The vehicle sat outside for over 25 years in Florida, so it needs some TLC. Paint and body work are needed, and the rear bumper filler is missing. The leather interior and dash also need to be refurbished, but all of the special Gucci fabrics are in excellent shape. This is a unique car (one of 200) that would make a fun Sunday driver or show car with some work. Buyer will need to make shipping arrangements and no warranty is offered, other than what may be associated with parts I have records for.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.
