Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"I did remove the bottom chrome moldings from the doors, fenders, and bumpers to see if there was any rust underneath. The body underneath with exception of the corners of the doors which is pictured was the only rust i could find. The rest of the underneath body is in excellent condition. I have saved all the metal chrome pieces from the doors and fenders and have bought brand new made to fit corner pieces and bumper pieces that i will include with the vehicle."

This is a great find. In storage since 2002, last plated in 2002. Always garaged. Everything works, EXCEPT the power seat. Switches work, solenoids work, has power to the seat motor but the motor does not run and probably will have to be replaced. AC works and is cool. Even the power antenna works on this car. Car runs and drives well and is a great start for a restoration or resto-mod or daily driver. Never driven in winter or salt. Car is from Virginia and was purchased in 1991 with only 62000 miles from the original owner, only driven in nice weather and stored winters. Tires are good. Interior is in EXCELLENT condition, EXCEPT for the headliner which has started to fall and will need to be re-glued. Body has normal wear and tear, over all is in great shape with a few scuffs. Paint is in good condition. There is one spot of surface rust a little bigger than a quarter, in the middle of drivers quarter panel, probably from an old stone chip or ding. The doors have some light rust on the bottoms from the bolts for the stainless trim but are otherwise very good. Two wheel center caps are missing. Please look carefully at the pics and ask any questions. This car is really nice but is 30 years old. Sold as is with no warranty. Buyer to arrange pick up, the listing says the "Vehicle Location" is in Hammond Indiana but i currently reside in Chesterton Indiana and thats where the car is at in my garage. For some reason i could not edit that? This is a great old Monte Carlo, Good Luck Bidding. No Reserve.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
