1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Wagon For sale is my 1967 Chevrolet wagon. This is a correct Vin and Cowl tag Malibu 8 cylinder wagon built the 4th week of January, 1967 in Fremont, CA plant. The vehicle has current Black CA plates and believed to be a original CA car but can't be verified. Current CA title and registered. The original paint code is "SS" for Fawn exterior paint and interior code 783 for Gold trim. The vehicle and interior has been repainted to Marina Blue with Blue interior. I have owned the vehicle for about a 2 months and was planning on turning into a Pro Touring Chevelle wagon but have too many projects. This is the perfect wagon to restomod or Pro tour. A solid vehicle, floor and panels appear to be original, decent repaint but needs all new suspension, bushings, and some mechanical work. Runs decent, just needs some TLC. Exterior: Vehicle appears to recently have been repainted in Marina Blue with a decent, presentable quality but not high quality. Body panels are very straight and don't see a lot of ripples in panels.Could use a buffing out. Bumpers, window mouldings, trim, grille and chrome all in good condition. Has a roof rack in good condition and rear window deflector. I personally wouldn't spend the money to repaint and put money towards suspension and other upgrades. Interior: Has been redone and changed to Blue. Carpet, seat covers, headliner, rear trim has been replaced or repainted. Very good condition. Comes with Bench seat w/fold down arm rest and headrests. Interior condition is a 7 of 10. Very presentable as has been done. Comes with clock (not working), aftermarket radio w/IPOD auxiliary connection and rear speakers. Aftermarket oil pressure and temp gauge. Working heater, this is a not a original A/C car. Engine/Drivetrain: Has a rebuilt 327 cu, V8, unknown how many miles but runs good. The stampings on block ID are missing so cant verify is original block. Has newer Edelbrock intake and carburetor, HEI distributor and ignition w/Petronix plug wires just added. Stock style exhaust manifolds, Chevy bowtie valve covers & air cleaner, Harrison radiator which I just had tanked and cleaned, runs a 185-190 degrees,new hoses and t-stat. Turbo 350 automatic transmission, shifts fine, slight vibration at hwy speed. 10 bolt rear end , gear ratio unknown. Overall runs solid, good oil pressure, starts up every time, slight vibration in driveline. Engine bay is very clean, good condition and with some minor touch up can be very presentable. Brakes/Suspension: Power drum brakes front & rear with dual master cylinder. Stops nicely, surprised how well it stops without disc brakes. Front and rear suspension components, bushings, shocks, body bushings need replacing. Vehicle wanders on the road and body creaks when turning. Basically, needs all suspension. It does has power steering and works fine. I was going to get a complete suspension kit, 2" drop spindles, convert to power front disc brakes. Has newer 15x7 SS style wheels with BF Goodrich 245/60-15 tires. Has rear sway bar. Misc: Tailgate lowers and raised with no issues. Outside crank handle works but tailgate wont lock from outside. All exterior glass including tailgate glass in good shape. Fuel gauge works seems accurate, speedo working, turn signal works but wont cancel-needs replacement. Headlights, turn signals, brakes, interior & dash lights all work. Heater working. Clock not working. Missing shift indicator on column. Undercarriage: Appears very sound, needs a good steam cleaning. Doesn't appear that any panels cut. Could use a new gas tank ,suspension tired. With some good scrubbing and detailing looks like will clean up nice. This is the perfect Chevrolet wagon for someone looking for a solid vehicle, needing some TLC . Someone looking for a restomod or Pro tour project this is the perfect vehicle for you. If it doesn't sell I will spend the $5-$10k to make this a awesome pro tour wagon or if you want to do something different this is a great vehicle to do it on. The vehicle is sold AS-IS. I have a reasonable "Buy it Now" price and reserve. I am not in desperation to sell . I am not interested in Trades. Please don't bid if you think this is a $5K or $12K car. Car is currently registered, clean CA title. The vehicle can be viewed locally by appt. If out of state buyer I will hold vehicle for a reasonable time period for transport. |

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
