I just acquired this beauty. I don't have the time to give her to restore her back. The previous owner did alot of work on this car.  It's a 95HP/Auto with 99K on it and with care will possibly go another 99K.Engine = rebuilt carbs, wires, plugs, cap & rotor, air cleaner, fuel pump, coil belt, balancer & seal, "O" rings, valve cover gaskets, pan gasket, muffler donuts, good exhaust (very quite).  New heater hoses and lower shroud thermostats. Trans/Diff = transmission was flushed (not converter) and filter checked and cleaned, new fluids for bother and are quite, shift smoothly with no gear noise or whining.  Very smooth and tight. Brakes = rebuilt master cylinder, steel line in the rear as well as rubber, pads all around have plenty of life, front cross member replaced with solid 65, new shocks (all around) idler are, pitman arm bushing and tires.  Front bearings cleaned and repacked, rears quite with no unusual vibrations or whine. Body/Interior = The body on this car is extremely solid. Floors are original and solid. drivers side door has about a 2" rust hole from what appears to have been a small hit at one time but not serious.  What you see is surface rust and discoloration. Body interior color combination is pretty.  Interior is all original and 98% perfect (years of dirty pant seats have left their mark.  Dash is incredible (crisp and clean).  All glass is clean with no chipping and front windshield is tinted.  Door panels are perfect and windows roll up and down smoothly.  wind noise while driving is almost nil .As mentioned above, this is a true daily driver that has never let me down.  I've driven it in all kinds of weather and it performs beautifully.  Does not leak when it rains and there are NO fowl odors with the heat or defrost on or with "AIR" down which all cables work smoothly.  There is this neat after market manual windshield sprayer in the truck with the pump lever under the dash.  It needs a bag but would bet it works.  Guessing this was dealer install, but has never seen one before. This car would only need slight bodywork and paint to be a show winner. It will give you years of enjoyment as a daily as well but deserves to be painted. As far what I can see the runs fine and just needs some TLC. Currently the speedometer was disconnected and was told by the original owner he was in the process of connecting it. It also needs carpeting.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

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.
