*** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!!***
THIS IS A RESTORATION IN PROGRESS! This is NOT a complete running car. There is still sheet metal work to be finished and a few rust spots left to repair. But all the major sheet metal repair has been done. We are selling this car because we just don't have time to finish it, with running two businesses. We don't have to sell this car we just don't have time to finish it and we'd like to see it go to someone who can finish it. There is some wiggle room on the price but not much because we do have a lot of money invested in this already.
We bought this car in 2011 and had it shipped here from Ohio, bought it sight unseen. We paid a couple grand for this car, knowing that id we didn't buy it this Original Chevelle might have found its way to a scrap yard. When the car arrived the seller obviously did not describe it as it was, the spare tire and gas tank were falling thru the trunk because the trunk had rotted thru entirely, and the rust didn't stop there the more we started scrapping and cleaning out we realized it was in major need of total restoration. We started ordering parts from Ground Up Restoration including a full floor with rockers and all braces, right and left FULL quarter panels, drip rail supports, right and left floor pans to replace where the toe pans had rotted, a full trunk floor with braces, quarter panel extensions right and left side, brand new trunk lid, rear window panel, right and left taillight extensions, tail lamp support brace, right and left firewall brackets, right and left full complete doors (NOT just skins). All the parts with tax and shipping equals almost $5,000, that's not including the cost of putting the parts on. This is what needs to be done to finish- toe pans, front firewall braces are welded on you need to finish welding in the full floor the quarters and the extensions in the back with a spot welder. We didn't have time to finish replacing rear fender wells, we were intending to mini tub the car once we had the floors in place. The braces under the backseat inside the car are screwed in and as a personal preference if you want to replace these or just patch them in since they aren't seen anyway. There are a couple spots around the top of the dash the will need some patches made. Again all this gets hidden under the dash pad and all the stainless trim that goes on the outside. A lot of the cracks and crevices that had some rust on them we sprayed with Eastwood's rust encapsulator, which acts as a navel jelly and stops rust. In the back of the car under the back window valance panel could use a couple patches here and there which again is hidden by the outer valence panel that we purchased new. As far as the frame goes it has its typical rust spots, it can be patched, but we were going to replace it with a box style frame and new suspension so we didn't put any emphasis on that just yet. It is a non-posi rear, front disc brakes, power steering. We have a 400 trans to go with the car, no engine the engine was shot and we do not have it anymore. We have 85% of all the parts we took out of the car, except for, from fenders and hood, and front and back seats. Just a note all the hard sheet metal work is done, it is a lot of work replacing full floors and full quarter panels.Any shop would have charged $10,000 for all this work to be done. My personal opinion if we were to continue with this car I would have lightly sand blasted the rest of the inside of this car.
Car has its clear Certificate of Title from Ohio ( as seen in pic) that we never signed, which we will give at the time of transaction. We have the original front and rear bumpers, front grill assembly and radiator support they are not in very good condition but you are welcome to have them. Feel free to go on Ground Up Restoration's website and add up all these parts so you can see just in parts how much is invested.
We would prefer local pickup, but we had this car shipped when we bought it we paid almost $700 to have it shipped from Ohio, so if you want to have it shipped, you ave to make the arrangements and pay for it. We will make sure the parts are secure in the car and the body is secure to the frame. But if you have it shipped you might want it shipped in an enclosed carrier because the car is in bare metal.
Please serious buyers only. We have a few more pics showing every detail of this car. The car is in a 1 car garage which makes it difficult to push in and out every time someone wants to see it, Thank you for you understanding.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
Here are 12 electric pickups in the works
Wed, Oct 21 2020With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and “shatterproof” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique “frunkgate” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
