Awesome 1969 chevelle ss 396 clone  project car-- easy to finish-- spent 90% of it life in california, bought new there, has califonia proteco-o-plate. I have had it for two years, and it is my baby. all the hard work done. New 468 Creat 454 big block, broke in but never driven. (bought this engine new ofrom an engine builder on ebay $3200.00 440 hp)New Summint Street/ Strip TH350 auto trans with new 3500 stall converter. Newly balance drive shaft with Brute force u-jionts. everything on the engine is new, polished intake, holley 750 double pumper carb, all new polished brackets, rebuilt power steering pump, cHrome water pump and pulleys,
chrome120amp alternator,HD Flex, flan, HD Aluminum radiator,energy motor mounts,and more. complete new front suspension, new disc Brake converstion with chrome booster/master cylinder,Ceramic coated headers, stainless hard brake lines, new chrome torque thrust II wheels,BFG RWL tires, All origonal body panels,never any rust other than some surface rust- all minor dents and panels were professional strightened, primed with urathane primer and HAND BLOCKED twice.  The car is Stright! The Car is ready for pain after sanding with 400gt. The car has been "cut-in" with code 72 dupont base/clear Hugger orange ( on of the paint options in 1969). Th paint only needs to be sprayed on the exterior panels.(Called "closed door" painting- much cheaper to get complted at a professional body shop). floor pans and trunk are awesome - underside has nvere been undercated and just has light surface rust. After painting I was planning to put in on a hoist and wire brush and paint it black- it is always hard to find one that does not have tons of the rubber undercoating sprayed all over from the factory.

The interrior is excellant- and is still the origonal light gree. I was planning on dying it satin black( SEM makes top quality spray cans ) rather than Buying JUNK repop interrior pieces.( door panels never fit correctly) dying when done right will last forever. Any nothing fits lit the factory parts!  all the stainless and trim is excellant except for the two trim pieced below the trunk that have been dented beyond exceptable use.  It included a repo SS hood that has has the underside preped and painted- top is in EDP Primer. Also included is origonal hood. All glass is good, al rollup and down as the should, everything works except fuel  guage. even the key buzzer still works.  The car was all origional and complete whern i purchesed it- never modified or taked apart-- this can has been a true pleasure to work on. All parts  like bumoers ( good condition), trim, interrior, moldings (other than below trunk) are included.  I alos am including several other new parts purchased for the car- emblemx, weatherstrip, kit, grill (origional one is still good and included). i am also includnid a new low profile polished intake. the intake currently on the car is a taller that most and will require a low profile air cleaner to fit under the hood. I had not decided if I wanted to swap intakes, or run a low air cleaner or possibly modify the hood brace. I will  let the new owner decide his or her coures of action on this.

The car Startes and moves ad stops ( brake kit fully installed, bleed and functional)- but I has not driven it other than up and down the driveway for operational checks as the allignment needs to be done ASAP, before driving it far, as it has a new front suspension. The car also has a complete new Vinly top installed professionally and all vinyl top trim.

The new owner should replace some of the origional pieces with new for show quality look, lie tail light trim, door handles, mirrors, ect. all the origionals are included but the chrome finished has pitted over the years.

 

this is a great chance to STEAL an origional califirnia NO RUST SS396 Clone for tons less that one that is finished-- ALL the hard stuff is done!

feel free to email or call me with any questions-- see my feedback-- I sold over 10 Chevelles, Novas, and Harleys on Ebay over the last 5 years with all happy customers.  All cars and bikes I have sold have been mine. I donr sell for others so I know everything there is to know about each vehicle I list.

NO RESERVE!!!

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our 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.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
