Build Sheet and Window Sticker

     Offered for sale is a frame off restored 1970 Chevelle Super Sport.  As you can see from the photos, it's clean, shiny, and rust-free.  It shows very well, and would make a great addition to anyone's collection.  While no car is perfect, this one is still pretty nice.  A lot of time, money, and effort has gone into making the car you see here.  I welcome anyone to come and see it in person if possible. Feel free to send a representative if you're not able to make it yourself.

     According to the trim tag, the car came from the factory in Cranberry Red Paint, Code 75.  It also came with black interior, Code 756.  The window sticker and build sheet show it as a factory 396 cubic inch engine, and a Muncie  4 speed transmission.  While the original engine is not in the car, it is a 1969 396.  It has been rebuilt, just like everything else.  I have photos that show the car disassembled and reassembled.  I have a lot of photos that I was not able to put in the ad, so please send me your email address and I'll forward it to anyone who wants  to view them.  

     The car drives very well.  It starts easily, idles well after a few seconds,and doesn't smoke or knock.  It shifts well, and the steering and brakes are excellent.  The rear end is quiet, the ac is cold, and the car is overall in great condition.  TRADES POSSIBLE, BUT DON'T GET YOUR FEELINGS HURT IF I DON'T WANT WHAT YOU'RE OFFERING OR DON'T PUT THE SAME VALUE ON YOUR TRADE THAT YOU DO !!!

     Underneath, the car is clean, rust-free, and the floors and trunk were replaced during the restoration.  Once again, I have photos of that too if anyone wants to see them.  With the exception of minor flaws in the restoration work, and much less than normal wear and tear, it's pretty awesome.  The car was not built be myself.  I bought it pretty much as you see it. The previous owner told me he spent a small fortune on the restoration, and had owned it for over 20 years.  I can't prove anything he said because I didn't get any receipts or documents.  I received a title, a photo album, and the build sheet and window sticker that he had in the car.  

     Feel free to email me with any questions.  The reserve price is just that...a reserve price.  It is less than half the price the former owner told me he spent on the restoration.  Bid to win, not to ask questions.  Please, no time-wasters !!!  If you know these cars, you know they aren't cheap.  This one is no exception.  Serious buyers are encouraged to ask questions, make offers, and view the extra photos I have.    Feel free to TEXT ME.  Speaking is usually difficult, so texts and emails are encouraged. 941-740-2277, pretty much whatever time is good for you.  I will respond in the order that emails and texts come.  You can email me at northshorebill@aol.  c o m.  You'll have to remove the spaces from "c o m".   I reserve the right to end the auction early in the event a serious buyer steps up and makes me an offer I can't pass up.  If you want it, don't wait.  If you want to wait and see if you can save a little money, I completely understand.  

     The car is located in Port Charlotte, Florida, approximately 90 miles south of Tampa.  I will assist with shipping, but the expense is on the buyer.

Canada opens probe into 250,000 GM pickups, SUVs over brake performance

Sun, Jun 23 2019

Transport Canada, the auto safety regulator, has opened a probe into braking issues in nearly 250,000 General Motors full-size pickups and SUVs after U.S. officials launched a similar probe last year, the agency said on its website. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in November into 2.73 million U.S. 2014-2016 model year SUVs and pickups after receiving 487 reports of hard brake pedal effort accompanied by extended stopping distance that were attributed to deterioration of the engine-driven brake assist vacuum pump. Transport Canada's probe covers 249,700 2015 through 2017 model year vehicles including the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon as well as 2014-2017 Chevrolet Silverado LD and GMC Sierra LD vehicles. The U.S. agency said it had reports of nine incidents of vehicles incurring damage as a result of colliding with another vehicle or fixed object at low speeds and reports of two injuries. NHTSA said if the pump fails to operate, the amount of brake power assist can be significantly reduced, extending vehicle stopping distance. The NHTSA sent GM an information request in a Feb. 7 letter. A GM spokesman said he had no update on the investigation. Reporting by David Shepardson; editing by Jonathan Oatis

General Motors Recall List

Wed, Oct 22 2014

It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.safercar.gov. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.

Buick Velite is a not-so-Volt-like plug-in hybrid concept for China

Mon, Nov 7 2016

Is the Buick Velite a Volt by any other name? That's a question worth asking after General Motors said that the Buick Velite concept vehicle will make its global debut at the Guangzhou Auto Show later this month. GM says the car "will provide a template for upcoming models being launched under the Buick Blue new energy vehicle strategy." Whether that means the Velite is a variant of the second-generation of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in is open to interpretation. Some automotive publications, including Autoweek, are saying that's the case, but GM China doesn't mention the Volt in its press release, only saying that the car is a "high-performance" plug-in hybrid vehicle. As we know, GM doesn't use the "PHEV" descriptor for the Volt, which makes us thing the Velite's powertrain is more like the Cadillac CT6 PHEV. Either way, the concept was developed by the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC), which is a joint venture between GM and Shanghai-based SAIC. As far as the name, GM has been shopping the Velite moniker around for a while now. The automaker first used Buick Velite for the convertible concept vehicle it showed off at the 2004 New York Auto Show. More recently, GM in 2014 filed to use the name for the US variant of its Opel Cascada four-seat convertible model, which debuted in 2013. As for the second-generation version of the Volt, that model appears to be gaining favor in the US. Domestic sales of the Volt through October have surged 64 percent from a year earlier to more than 18,500 units. The new version boosted its all-electric range by 40 percent to 53 miles while increasing its power output by 20 percent.
