Wichita, Kansas, United States

 Hello, Thanks for looking at my auction. This four door 150 sedan is an excellent candidate for a restoration.  This was put in dry storage in Burlington, Kansas back in 79 due to a blown head gasket. The head was removed and discarded by the original owner. I have disassembled the car for the most part, bagged and tagged every part. The body is off the frame and has little rust except the floor pan and floor braces. This seems like it is a lower mileage car due to the soundness of tie rod ends, u-joints, door strikers, bearings, brakes, etc. I cannot be sure though and cannot guarantee the odometer hasn't been around a few times! The trunk pan is in decent with no holes but there is one spot that got some pitting due condensation drip from the deck lid seal. The deck lid is rusted out on the underside where the weather stripping contacted it. It seems to me that this may have been due to dust build up from the barn it was in and then temperature changes causing trapped moisture. There are some dents on the top that will need to be massaged out when you take out the headliner. All interior parts are present, ( garnish moldings have been bead blasted and are pretty much ready for paint). The bodywork has been started on the doors, hood, and fenders.  Sorry that I have no pictures of the front clip, but the fenders and hood are in good shape. They have been sprayed with self etching primer and the doors have had some skim coats of  filler applied in some necessary areas (not rust related) and then urethane primer over that and then blocked and some scratch filler applied. The body work will need finishing by the buyer.   The drive train seems very sound aside from the motor, ( I have another good 235 that will be included). The windshield also has bullseye crack in it in front of rear view mirror. The stuff on the roof in the pictures are mud dauber nests. These pictures were taken when I bought the car and then disassembled. This can be a great car for the right person with talent and patience,(and money for a new floor pan!). I have nice Bellaire hubcaps to with this and a nice grill bar as well. This is very complete, I think the only thing it is missing is the bowtie emblem that goes in the grill bar. Though this has the original parts many will need replaced due to neglect. The title for this was lost and it will come with a Kansas Bill of Sale, a new Kansas title is easily obtained by the buyer due to age of car.  Please feel free to ask questions, I encourage you to ask questions! This is a no reserve auction and will sell to the high bidder. If you have a feedback rating of less than ten please contact me prior to bidding. This is pickup only. I can put the body back on the frame, air up tires and hang the doors to make this easier to transport at buyers request. Thanks for looking.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

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.
