Vin: LC55J169682
Motor: GM crate 350ci 330hp
Trans: GM 700r4 overdrive
Paint: Viper Red and Arctic White, clear coat

This is a three owner California car. She was frame off rotisserie built 5 years ago, that's when the current owner bought her in Southern CA. This is a no wreck car, not pieced together and in no way junk. The doors open and close outstanding, the jamb lines are excellent. There are no creaks, rattles or squeaks. You can get in and drive her across the country with no worry.

Some of the highlights: 

Interior: Leather and cloth
Dakota digital dash with current mileage and clock
Flaming River polished tilt column
Retro 15" period steering wheel
Concourse 55 Chevy stereo w/10 disc changer in trunk
Rear three tinted windows, not film

Running gear:

Camaro 10 bolt rear end, drum brakes
Front 2" drop spindles w/ disc brakes
Air conditioning that blows cold and well
Power Steering
Power Brakes
Dual Megaflow exhaust
Front and rear sway bars
American Racing Hoopster wheels
F- P225 60R15
R- P225 70R15
New BFG radials
Walker radiator

You can see the detail and how clean the undercarriage is. Every single nut and bolt was taken off, rehabbed or replaced w/ new. Most of the car retains original parts that have been rechromed or stainless polished. All new rubber was installed in every locations. The windows work better than when she rolled off the line. 

The owner has driven and enjoyed this car for five years and taken meticulous care of her. There is a couple paint chips on the nose from the road, but not bad at all. She is a solid 9 and anybody would be proud to own this piece of Americana!

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
