Unfortunately, the other "buyers" didn't materialize, so I'm forced to re-list it. I've dramatically reduced the reserve and will take BEST OFFERS this time around. The car is worth more than I am asking for the Buy It Now, I just am out of time to close the deal. My loss, your gain. So, ask questions and good luck! ================================================= The time may have come to part with my baby. We're looking at moving and as much as it pains me to say, the down payment on the new house is sitting in my garage. :-( So, with that said... The car is a 1965 Chevelle Malibu SS tribute w/ a fully dressed .60 over 350 full hydraulic roller small block, Holley 650 double pumper, MSD Electronic Ignition, with complete NOS system (not yet plumbed) that puts a TON of hp to the ground, A/C, P/S, P/B, automatic transmission, lowered 3", custom made trunk enclosure, custom hidden stereo installation, very nice interior. We take the car to shows all the time and it gets PLENTY of attention. It'll melt the tires and turn heads. The car is pure mean in PPG Triple Black and dropped on black chrome rims. I've had the car for about 7 years now I guess. Over the years, we've done a lot to the car mechanically, cosmetically, etc. I'm going to try to be as complete, transparent, and honest as possible. I've bought and sold enough cars online to know it can be a difficult process. My eBay rating should speak for itself. The motor was freshly built a few years back and used since as an occasional weekend cruiser and show car, couldn't have more than a couple of thousand miles on it MAX (odometer no workie). The transmission (Turbo 400) also was freshly built when the motor was installed. The Details - system by system:
The car runs like a top, shifts perfectly, BIG power to the ground, sounds incredible, turns heads everywhere we go. The Issues: - the paint job isn't awe-inspiring. The paint used was TOP OF THE LINE (I have some left and will send), but unfortunately the guy that applied it wasn't a craftsman. The prep and the application itself wasn't superior, so it shows. I'ts done in single stage PPG Triple Black (really deep black). Once it was done, they wet sanded it to try to get it right. It helped a LOT, but unfortunately, they did rub through on a couple of edges (edges are always much thinner in paint, so it's easy to do). There are some very fine scratches left by the process in a few places that could likely be buffed out. There are a couple of bubbles (driver's side quarter and rear deck filler panel) where the paint has some adhesion issues. Ultimately, the car looks great from 10' and going down the road, but sitting at a show for inspection by a critical eye, there are issues to be addressed. - there are a few issues with the bodywork that still could be addressed. We did 95+% of the sheet metal work over the last handful of years (new quarters, trunk filler panel, door skins, etc). The floor pans are solid but the driver's side front has a little rust. The trunk floor is a little rusty with a some holes (but completely hidden by the custom enclosure). Under the driver's side drip rail is some metal work that could be done (small patch that should be filled up and painted). You can't see it unless you lean down under and look for it. There was a patch panel welded onto the driver's side door front edge. Again, the prep on it was poor so the edge of the panel cracked through the the paint a bit. - a couple of small seam separations in the front seat (NOT tears..these can easily be stitched closed). - the front and rear windshield trim isn't great. The front probably should be replaced. The rear isn't too bad, just needs to be re installed more tightly. - the doors close like the heavy beasts they are. The driver's door sags a little so you have to be firm when closing it. I would have no concern (and regularly do all of this) about putting the car on the road for a local cruise of the area, jumping on the highway to do 80 (or more ;-) to get somewhere, showing it off in a show/cruise night, or taking up to the speedway to run the 1/4. I encourage you to come see it if you are serious. It doesn't disappoint. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally. |

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
