Salem, Oregon, United States
|
This car is a true survivor that is very good condition for its age. I have spent the last year getting this unique car back on the road. It is a West Coast car and is rust free. I have only driven the car 300 miles since it's completion. Here is a detailed list of what has been professionally done to this car: Professional engine rebuild: Original block was hot tanked, bored, and milled. New pistons were installed and the connecting rods were reconditioned. The balance shaft was deleted and new timing chain and guides were installed. The original crankshaft was reconditioned. A new mild cam was installed. The head is a new non-jet type that was polished and intake and exhaust matched. New valves, guides, and seals were installed. ARP head studs were used to install the new head. All new seals, gaskets, and bearings were installed. The oil pump was replaced with a new unit as was the water pump. New engine mounts were installed prior to the engine being installed in the car. A new 14G turbo was installed with a new down-pipe. New Venom injectors were installed. A new Centerforce stage 2 clutch disc and pressure plate were mated to a lightened flywheel and installed. I installed an aluminum radiator with a custom shroud and two high volume electric fans. The car has an aftermarket polished intake pipe with an aftermarket blow-off valve. Other new components include: a new alternator, all new belts and hoses, and battery. A Kenwood stereo was installed that includes HD radio and Bluetooth. New Alpine component speakers were installed in the doors and Alpine 3-way speakers were installed in the back. It also has a digital Alpine amplifier and is wired for a sub. The interior of the car is in amazing condition! The original carpet was removed and professionally cleaned and then reinstalled. I had the original seats recovered in black vinyl with perforated inserts to match the original covers. The dash does not have any cracks. The center console armrest is intact and the pad is without defects. The automatic seatbelts work well. Both power windows roll up and down smoothly. The automatic locks work. All gauges and light work as they should. The digital climate control works. The car has been repainted some time ago but the paint is in good shape. It does have some scratches and the front air dam is damaged. The body is straight and is rust free. This car is for sale locally and this auction can be terminated by the seller at any time. |

The 100,000th EV sold in the US is... a Mitsubishi i-MiEV
Fri, 12 Jul 2013The news here isn't that 100,000 EVs have been sold in the US, although that's quite the accomplishment. It's that the 100,000th car is a Mitsubishi i-MiEV - a car that takes nearly a full day to recharge on a standard outlet and can only travel about 62 miles per charge (according to the car's Monroney).
Jabs at the Mitsubishi aside, the fact that US dealers have moved 100,000 electric cars is made more impressive in that it's only been done since the latest generation of EVs arrived, typified by the Nissan Leaf, Ford Focus Electric and aforementioned i-MiEV. Chronologically, that means roughly the last two years. It's a number that we can only expect to climb, as EVs gain a stronger foothold among manufacturers and consumers.
Plug In America, an EV advocacy group, crunched the numbers for a contest called #PIA100K, to find the lucky buyer, who would be given a ClipperCreek Level 2 charger (which takes the i-MiEV's recharge time down to just seven hours). The winner, Rich Salmon of Grand Bay, Alabama, picked up his i-MiEV from Pete Moore Mitsubishi.
Long-serving Mitsubishi president Masuko to step aside
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Long-struggling Mitsubishi Motors is reportedly preparing for a changing of the guard at home. According to Reuters, Osamu Masuko will step aside in favor of Tesuro Aikawa, currently the company's managing director. Masuko won't be leaving the fold entirely, however - he will take the role of chairman, displacing Takashi Nishioka, who will resign. The shakeup has not been confirmed by Mitsubishi, but word is that the changes will take effect April 1.
Mitsu's US troubles are no secret, but the brand's struggles in its home market haven't been quite so publicized. The company was bailed out by other arms of the Mitsubishi empire, and it just raised $2 billion this month to buy back preferred shares that were issued during the bailout. Masuko served as president for nearly ten years, during which the brand's US efforts utterly stalled out, recalls cropped up in Japan and an alliance with Daimler (which was DaimlerChrysler at the time) disintegrated.
According to Reuters, establishing the kind of alliances that will allow the brand to grow, such as its tie-up with Renault-Nissan, are key to Mitsu's long-term success. The thought is that an alliance will allow the brand to come up with some innovative models that won't be compromised by its lack of production scale. It looks like Aikawa has his work cut out for him.
Mitsubishi planning three all-new concepts for Tokyo show
Tue, 08 Oct 2013Even with new models like the 2014 Outlander and Mirage in its stable, Mitsubishi could sure use a little excitement injected into its lineup. Fortunately, it looks like a trio of concepts headed to the Tokyo Motor Show could finally help spark some enthusiasm for the troubled automaker.
All we have to go on right now is a pair of teaser images for the three concepts, but it does reveal a possible new design language for Mitsubishi. The Concept GC-PHEV (shown above) is a fullsize, plug-in utility vehicle, and it could very well be a harbinger of the Montero/Pajero replacement that we heard about earlier this year. Mitsubishi will also unveil a compact plug-in crossover called the Concept XR-PHEV designed to look like a "sport coupe" as well as the Concept AR compact MPV, which will utilize a small-displacement, turbocharged engine.
There is still no word on the next-gen Lancer, Galant or subcompact sedan mentioned in recent reports, but the announcement below does show promise for Mitsubishi's lineup of plug-in cars.
