First off, this is the personal vehicle of a 75 year old female friend of mine. She purchased this car when a close friend of hers died at age 95 in 1989.  She is now the 2nd owner. The car was garaged it's entire life with the exception of 3 years when it was simply in a carport. When I tell you this car RUNS and DRIVES like a brand new base model car, that is no exaggeration. I was driving it to my home doing about 45 and I braked HARD and the car did not pull or deviate from a straight path.  I booted it from a stop sign (just to see) and it smoked the tire for about 20 feet.  Runs great!  Shifts perfectly. Tires like new. Exhaust IS new. There is not a rippled panel on this car and not a door ding or scratch evident.  There IS rust starting in a few spots (pictured) and the rear fender wells at the bottom are rotted (ALL spots easily contained and easily repaired).  I banged all over the frame and it appears solid. The engine, tranny and ANY running gear have NEVER been touched or removed from the car. ALL original to the car.  The carb has been changed but the choke activated like it was new.  There is an aftermarket radio (plain jane) that plays well.  Crank windows, NO AC, no power nuthin but DOES have power steering cuz it drives AWESOME.  She has the metal GM plate that was issued with the car, the original manual, she even has every registration to the car since new (along with some McDonalds bags folded up in case she needed a rubbish bag).  If you were to put maybe up to a grand in new panels and paint and a new seat cover that a DOZEN places online list them for $239-279 COMPLETE, you'd have one heck of a nice dependable CLASSIC unmolested car. Trunk is solid with no rust, even at the spring towers.  I'm telling you this is a real survivor.  On the drive to my house from hers, the FIRST turn I took onto the main road.......FIRST turn I had a guy gawking and giving me the thumbs up.  Just a nice nice example of a car that LITERALLY was driven by two little old ladies.  Don't miss this chance.  I told her I'd offer it as an "auction" with the understanding that it IS being offered at a local Hot Rod Shop on their lot, so don't mess around.  If it sells there, the auction ends!  At her request I put a "buy it now" of $7500.  Contact me if you want to make a buy it now offer and I will propose it to her. She wants this SOLD so get serious.  Fly in to Worcester MA and I'll pick you up to see it if you want.  Ask questions and I'll be 100% honest, not only cuz of my 100% Ebay rating, but cuz I have no interest in it's sale, other than to help an elderly friend (and I am quite the car nut).  Again, good luck.   Fran

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
