Original 1966 Chevelle Super Sport. This is a true RUST FREE 138 VIN car and it has the 396 big block NOM motor (casting number 3999290) with a turbo 400 auto transmission. I suspect the motor is bored and stroked given how strong it runs but I don't know this for a fact, as I have not been inside the motor. The cylinder heads are casting number 3856208 with big rectangular ports (most likely from a 1965 396/425 HP or Z-16/L37 Chevelle) and from the VIN (138176Z) we know this is a true, California Super Sport car manufactured at the Freemont, California plant. The firewall Trim Tag paint code (AA) indicates an original Tuxedo Black exterior color while the trim code (763) indicates it was originally supplied with Black Vinyl Bucket Seats. This car is rust free. While the car currently has a Turbo 400 auto trans, it was originally a 4-speed car and even has the clutch pedal assembly still in place. This would be an easy conversion if you wanted to go back to a manual transmission set up.

This car was built for pro-street and does drive good on the street. It has the fiberglass hood, trunk, and bumpers. Has Center Line Wheels , It also has a 4-link rear suspension with a set of Mickey Thompson 29X12.50-15LT tires that have some tread remaining, while still leaving room for a set of much wider tires if you wanted to mount them. It has a 4-link rear suspension with a 12 bolt rear end. Front power disc brakes with drilled and slotted front rotors, 7in. Dual diaphragm booster and rear drum brakes, stops great. The rear was tubbed for bigger tires and wheels and the job was done in a very professionally manner. The original black back seat base cushion and seat back are included with the car.

This Big Block motor runs very strong with a ratchet / slapstick B&M shifter making it a blast to drive. While I don't know all the details of the motor build, this is one of the strongest (and best sounding) drivetrains I've heard. The former owner / builder says it is running 13:1 compression. It has a Holley Strip Dominator single plane intake, with a Holley (List 4780-2) 800 CFM carburetor and Crane roller-rockers with huge headers and mufflers. MSD Ignition box with pro billet distributor and msd coil. Electric fuel pump. The previous owner also told me that it has 4:10 gears to put the power down. Here is a link a video to give an idea of how strong this motor sounds (http://youtu.be/rVHGw8j-1_k), but it still doesn't capture it as well as it does in person. This car is an absolute head-turner when it idles by with the nasty sounding motor.

The interior is clean as well. It still has racing bucket seats and driver side racing seat belts, the carpet is clean, and the headliner is clean and still in place. It has the optional full factory dash gauge package with two supplemental, after market (temperature and oil pressure) gauges mounted under the dash with a functioning fuel pressure gauge mounted directly in front of the driver's line of sight. It has an aftermarket tachometer mounted on the steering column that needs to be better attached to the column. The radio is missing though the dash does not appear to have ever been cut in anyway. All the glass windows are operational and in place. The interior door panels (and rear panel behind the rear seat between the wheel wells) have been replaced with nice aluminum panels but could be replaced with factory door panels if wanted to put it back to a stock configuration. Stainless steel sill plates.

The body of the car is in great shape. Base coat clear coat paint. All lights work. All trim is in great shape. There is no rust that I can find on the car. The black paint has a nice gloss, but has some nicks and surface scratches.

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut

Tue, Oct 21 2014

The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US Â– with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) Â– Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the YearÂ® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the YearÂ® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the YearÂ® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
