If you have ever had the urge to buy a true classic,
collectible car that you need not spend a fortune to buy it or keep it
maintained then this is the car for you.
Absolutely the best driving muscle car I have ever driven. I have owned approximately 1,000 cars that I
would consider muscle cars. This car is
as original as it gets. Numbers matching
engine, transmission and rear end with a 3.42 posi. Muncie M-21 with original shifter that was
rebuilt in California prior to my ownership.
Engine has had a cam change and an aluminum intake and MSD ignition
added. The engine has a nice lope
through the flowmasters. I have the
original intake, distributor and valve covers.
This just gives it a little more pep but retains its originality. Alternator is original and A/C is still on
R-12 and works great. Still has the
original shifter and also the original standard-shift radiator. Car never goes over 210 in the heat with the
A/C on. Speedometer shows 58,676 miles
but I cannot verify this. All indicators
are that this is correct. All original
interior is in excellent condition. Dash
pad has a small crack near the speaker.
I have a cap on the dash at this time.
I have the build sheet for this vehicle and it matches up rather
nicely. It shows windshield antenna
which is rare. It has the original HR-70-15
spare in the trunk. Has an aftermarket
AM FM in the glove box and the original 8 track still on the dash. Key buzzer still functions as does the shift
lock from the transmission to the steering column. It must be in reverse to get the key out of
it. Drives absolutely straight with no
shakes or pull. A pleasure to own and
drive. All of the gauges work perfectly. Currently has 17” American Racing Hopster
wheels on it - which are not my taste but look great and run smoothly. The tires have approximately 1,600 miles on
them. 2 1/2 “ true dual exhaust with
flowmasters and it sounds great. Clutch
does not chatter nor slip, it engages perfectly and pulls great. I had it painted 6 years ago and it has held
up great. Paint looks deep and
glossy. I also had a new vinyl top put
on at the same time with the original material of course. Rea end is quiet and grabs perfectly. Absolutely no issues – get in it and
drive. The original exhaust manifolds
and smog are still in place so there are no headers to leak. Has matching number carburetor on the
aluminum intake. Engine starts great and
idles at 800 RPM and lopes great. It has
great muscle car sound. I think I
covered it all, but look at the pictures and if you have a question that I did
not cover, give me a call. 806-236-5911C
or 806-373-9736W. The only reason for
selling is the purchase of a house.
Please do not be a bogus bidder – man-up! If you meet the reserve, then I expect you to
complete the auction. I do not need bids
to help sell my car. The car itself will
sell on its own merit. I will help on
this end to deliver it to the shipper of your choice. Title is clear and in my name. Payment of cash or cashier’s check prior to
pick up. Vehicle will be released after
all funds are cleared and in my hand. No
warranty – I think it expired a few years ago.
Check my feedback – good luck and God bless. Free delivery to lower 48 states if you use

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
