Good Stuff-Up for auction is a 1968 Chevelle! Its a wonderful restoration project and is all original. Custom exhaust, 327 engine, lots of chrome, MT valve covers, extra chrome water pump, comes with new seat covers not installed, all the windows roll down with no bar in the way, original rally rims, gauges under dash, new battery, nothing is tampered with.
Work it needs-Here is what it needs that we know of. Transmission work(goes backwards only, linkage problems), quarter panel work, fenders, front floors, rocker panels,trunk ect... this car has rust it needs sheet metal. This is New England, it is what it is.
Just needs a good owner with the time to finish it off, I don't have to tell you how much this car will be worth when its done or how cool it is since you probably already know that.
Stuff that bidders need to know-Serious bidders only, this needs to be trailered or flat bedded. Winning bidder is responsible for seeing that this is taken car of. Uship works great for this. We will not ship. The winning bidder pays for everything to do with towing shipping, ect. The car rolls so this should help.

Bidders, please do not bid if you don't intend to follow through with the sale. I'm talking to the bidders that have non payment remarks in their feedback. I've put time and money into this listing. It is not free to list and I don't get reimbursed from Ebay if you decide not to pay. This isn't a game. You cannot accidentily bid, this is a several step process, your dog or 3 year old didn't accidentily bid, I don't want to hear that you don't speak English or live in Siberia and will not be able to arrange shipment. I take non-paying non-communicating bidders very seriously. I'm sorry to all the good bidders out there, this needs to be said. If I think you are an at risk bidder I will cancel your bid and block you. Thank you!

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
