I am listing the most reliable day driver car I have ever had. I purchased this car 8 years ago and have put 22,000 miles on the car. This beautiful car originally came from California, it was then in Washington state. I purchased it from a man in Ohio. The car is solid. You can check out all the pictures that I took of under the car. There no rot in any of the floor panels and rockers.  The car is a very rare color combination of Safire Blue and white. All the trim inside and out is in good condition. The front brakes have been converted to vented Disk Brakes. The suspension is all Air ride with 1/8 manual valves. The great thing is you can leave it pumped up in the garage and it will not lose any air for weeks. You can slam the car down when you park it and it looks amazing!! I get stopped every single time I drive the car. When you inflate the suspension it rises to full stock ride height.  I installed new carpet and headliner when I got it. They are reproduction of stock. We installed a very custom Hidden radio in the car. You just hit a switch under the dash and the radio folds out of where the radio delete plate is installed. It has a speaker in the front dash and 2 that are hidden in the rear speaker panel. There are 2 amps in the trunk that power everything, including 2, 10 inch subs. I have a cable that comes from under the dash to plug in my i-pod or my phone. I run Pandora radio through the radio. I did not want to install ugly antennas on the car. The seats are original with very rear iridescent fabric that you can see when the sun shines on the interior.  Everything in the car works except wipers. I never drive the car in the rain and if I get caught in the rain I have so much rain x on the windshield they are not needed. I you want wipers fixed before taking delivery, that can be arranged. Just call me and we can work out a deal.   I would not classify this car as a show car, but 90 percent of the people who see it would say that it is. I would give the car 9 out of 10. It is awesome but not so perfect that you are afraid to drive it. As you can see by the amount of miles I have put on it. When I purchased this car from Ohio I drove it home. You could drive this home if you want. The transmission is 3 on the tree. The car will cruise at 65 mph with no problem. As you can see from the pictures it is a 6 cylinder. It gets great gas mileage. Maybe 22mpg? . I have never actually figured it out. This car is the perfect cruiser. It is smooth and relaxing to drive. I like it stock with the 6 cylinder. If you wanted to drop a v8 and make it a Resto-mod this would be the perfect car. One just sold for 60k on Gas monkey garage. I have seen several of these car sell in that price range on Ebay.  The wheels are chrome and are made by Coy’s. They are 20’s in the back and 18 in the front. There is only one spot of rust and that id on the passenger rear quarter panel. See the pictures! I have a new NOS quarter that is included in the auction.  Engine runs great, has new battery. Valves are little noisy when it is 50 degrees outside but goes away when engine warms up. Only does that when the temperatures drop. It does not do that in summer or spring. Has fairly new cap rotor and wires. I would not sell this car but I have 5 hot rods and another baby on the way. I need to finish other cars and down size a little. Unfortunately more kids does sometimes mean less toy. Lol. I do not have to sell this car but it will free up the cash to finish my 49 merc. Call me if you have any questions Mr. Ashley Thompson 443 994 5927. I will answer any questions you have. (Please look at all the pictures before you call)

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
