Factory Cranberry Red with Black Interior

Cold Aftermarket Vintage Air

12 Bolt Posi Rear

Power Steering and Power Disc Brakes

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.

Did the Chevy Corvette Z06 break 7 minutes at the Ring? Not likely

Wed, Jan 28 2015

"Just because it's on the internet doesn't make it true." That's rule number one, two and arguably, three, of surfing the world wide web. In today's example of this rule, we have the following. The website HorsepowerKings is claiming that a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, with the eight-speed automatic and Z07 package, managed to lap the Nurburgring Nordschleife in under seven minutes. To put that in perspective, that super-quick time would put the 650-horsepower, $97,000 (the price of a 2LZ with the Z07/8AT combo) Z06 a mere two seconds slower around the world's most challenging race track than the $929,000, 887-horsepower Porsche 918 Spyder Weissach. It's about eight seconds quicker than Nissan's own test of the GT-R Nismo Track Pack and 13 seconds faster than a Dodge Viper ACR. Unfortunately, Chevy says there isn't anything to it. We reached out to the Bowtie's Monte Doran, who confirmed that HK's claims are "not accurate." "Any one – a manufacturer, a journalist, a guy standing on the fence of the Ring – can claim a lap time. As such, we think the in-car video is essential to proving a time is real and credible, and Chevrolet will not release a lap until we have a video to substantiate the claim," Doran told Autoblog. "Chevrolet accumulated nearly 1,000 miles of testing on the Nurburgring with the Z06. During that time, we only had two opportunities to run a lap on video – and both were rained out. If we get a lap on video, we will post an official time." Doran finished by referencing the "only official lap time" for the Z06 – a 2:41 around the Virginia International Raceway. Frankly, we aren't terribly surprised by Chevy's position. One would imagine if the Z06 were matching million-dollar hypercars around the 'Ring, the company would literally be screaming about it from Renaissance Center's rooftop. As this is quite the opposite of that, though, we're betting that the real Z06 lap time - while still likely very, very fast – won't be quite quick enough to frighten the brightest and best of today's hypercars.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

Leno drives Ringbrothers' latest, 1966 Chevy Chevelle Recoil

Tue, Mar 3 2015

Jay Leno has been checking out quite a few older rides in his garage as of late, but has mixed things up a little this week. Ringbrothers took home an award at the 2014 SEMA Show for the 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle it named Recoil, and now the car has proven it can do more than just look good on Jay Leno's Garage. While the latest guest might look vintage, underneath those classic lines is a thoroughly modern muscle car sporting a claimed 980 horsepower. The heart of this beast is a supercharged LS7 V8 from Wegner Motorsports and a six-speed Tremec manual gearbox. Even with so much power, it can still run on 91-octane pump gas, and when Jay gets on the throttle the result is a wall of sound from the wailing supercharger. Despite the muscle, the Recoil doesn't really scream about its performance aesthetically. The color is a surprisingly plain beige, but the carbon fiber touches and side exhaust certainly indicate that there's something special here. The owner's sole request for the car was to include metal seats, and Ringbrothers provided them with a few bits of leather offering a touch of comfort. After checking the Recoil out from stem to stern, Leno finally gets behind the wheel and treats our ears to pull after pull from that big, supercharged V8.
