1966 Chevelle SS 396 4 speed, true Super Sport 138 Vin. Let me start out by saying that I got this car from a family that I know, the car belonged to the husband who I was friends with, I know the history on this car for the past 7 years or more, the man was a pretty good business man that had several cars, he bought this one and like his others he sent this one to a restoration shop in south Alabama and had the car completely restored. But unlike his other car which was restored to trailer queens and AACA top honors car he built this one to his liking so that he could actually drive the car and enjoy. The car under went a full nut and bolt restoration starting about 4 or 5 years ago. The car was a solid car very small amount of rust in the car. Everything on the car was gone trough and put back either brand new or rebuilt. I will say that the motor and trans in the car is not the #'s matching setup for the car. When he bought the car he wasn't worried about matching numbers or anything he wanted a real SS that he could drive and play with. But the motor and trans have been professionally rebuilt and work amazing. When he had the car done he upgraded a few things, like march pulleys and a Griffin Radiator so that their wouldn't be any cooling issues, and a dual flow master exhaust system. The car does have a correct 12 bolt rear end. The interior of the car was all brand new when the car was restored. Factory Knee Knocker tach under the dash like the factory and also the correct SS gauges in the dash. The car does have buckets and the correct 4 speed center console. The trunk of the car is finished in splatter paint like the factory would have done and correct mat. The car looks amazing from the outside with the rally wheels. All the bumpers and trim were put on new as well when the car was redone. Like I said the gentleman that built the car spared no expense when doing the car with everything just about new. The car runs out and drives great, no issues that I know of mechanically. This would make someone an amazing cruiser, one to take to shows and really enjoy. If your looking for a trailer queen this car is not it, this car was built to be driven and enjoyed, not saying that the car couldn't be detailed and things done to take it to the next level, but the car was built to be enjoyed. The car is for sale locally and is subject to be taken off. The car is also sold as is with no warranty. A 25% deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end and the balance within 7 more when the car is to be picked up or arrangements are made for the car to be shipped. If you have any questions about the car please fill free to ask and I will try and answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks and God Bless Charlie 251-751-7530

NHTSA closes 4-year GM investigation, issues common sense advisory [w/video]
Thu, Apr 9 2015Since January 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been investigating a possible problem with corroding brake lines in General Motors' GMT800-platform models, like the Chevrolet Silverado and Suburban and GMC Sierra, in states with salt on their roads in the winter. However, as opposed to launching a full recall of millions of vehicles, the government is issuing a common-sense safety advisory to all drivers in snowy states to keep their vehicle's undercarriage clean. It even has a video explaining things. "Older-model vehicles, often driven in harsh conditions, are subject to corrosion over long periods of time, and we need owners to be vigilant about ensuring they, their passengers, and others on the roads are safe," said NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind in the announcement of the end of the investigation. The agency was clear in its report that "brake line corrosion seen in the GM vehicles was not unique," and the government "has not identified a defect that would initiate a recall order." Instead NHTSA is advising drivers, especially those of vehicles from before 2007, to wash their vehicle's undercarriage in the winter and spring to remove salt or other de-icing chemicals. It also recommends regular checks by a mechanic to make sure everything is in proper order. According to the investigation documents, for just the GMT800 platform models, NHTSA found 3,645 complaints of brake line corrosion, which included allegations of 107 crashes and 40 injuries. The issue was found to be more common in vehicles over 10 years old. GM has released a statement (embedded below) that the company "supports the consumer advisory from NHTSA urging regular maintenance and care of brake lines on older vehicles." NHTSA Closes Investigation into Brake-Line Failures NHTSA 13-15 Thursday, April 9, 2015 Agency issues safety advisory on preventing undercarriage corrosion WASHINGTON – The Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today issued a Safety Advisory and consumer video encouraging owners of model year 2007 and older trucks, SUVs and passenger cars to inspect brake lines and thoroughly wash the underside of their vehicles to remove corrosive salt after the long winter in order to prevent brake-line failures that increase the risk of a crash.
GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
