1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS 2dr. H/T.  This car is powered by a factory 230ci. Straight 6 with a Manual 3sp. trans with shift on the column (yes, this is a real SS car .... in 1964 a straight 6 was the base motor .... check the VIN .... it will verify it).  This car has factory bucket seats and factory rally gauges with a clock (no tach).  This car needs a lot of work but it is a real SS car and it starts right up and drives around the yard.  The brakes are bad so you can't drive it home but again it can be driven around the yard and onto a trailer.  The car has a lot of rust on the bottom of it.  All of the lower body panels need rust repair.  The upper part of the body is pretty good.  The rear window area is in good shape.  The front window too is in good shape.  There is a little rust in the 'C' pilars by the quarter windows.  It needs lower floor boards and a trunk floor.  It also has some frame rot on the right front frame rail (below the battery) and also in the rear around the gas tank area.  This car was originally paint code 936 which is Ermine White and Trim Code 714 Black bucket seats.  The hood is rusty but is still opens like it should.  The gas tank is in the trunk and the car is now running off of a small tank under the hood next to the motor.  The gas tank would have to put back in place to be street driven again.  This would be an excellent project car for someone that wants a real SS Chevelle on a budget.  You could fix the brakes and drive it the way that it is or tear it apart and put the body on a new repro frame or ???  The posibilities are endless.  If you are in the area of Central Florida and are interested in this car I would suggest that you come and take a look at the car in person.  The pictures make the car look good but like I said that needs a fair around of rust repair but it does run and drive in the yard (no brakes .... so no street driving).  If you have any other questions email me or give me a call at 8 one 3 - seven three 2 - six zero six 8.  Thanks, Curtis

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
