1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Ss 402ci, 4spd **matching Numbers** --- Not A Clone! on 2040-cars
Dudley, Massachusetts, United States
Up for auction is a beautiful 1972 ground up restoration with all items completely rebuilt or new. It has flawless paint (black/gold stripes) with vinyl roof (mint condition) and is a matching numbers vehicle. Yes, this is a legit SS with a LS3 402ci paired with a 4spd Muncie transmission. It is for the most part original with the exception of aftermarket wheels and several chrome/high performance parts. It has 410 gears and clutch replaced in 2005. The interior is in great conditon except for a small tear in he driver's seat. For anyone seriously interested in this vehicle, I can scan/email you a copy of the appraisal written back in 2006. I also have additional pictures available but the listing only allowed me to put 24 pics on here. I have over 100 pics in all. If you want any pics of anything specific, I can get those as well. The vehicle was appraised in 2007 for $47,000 and the vehicle is in better condition now than when it was appraised! The engine compartment was not repainted/refreshed until this past Fall. As the pictures show, the car is trophy material. This vehicle is being listed for a close friend of mine. Oddly enough, while he has been the owner for the past 8 years, the car was owned by my father-in-law back in 1974 (he sold it to buy a wedding ring.......yes, bad move, I agree) and a couple other local car enthusiasts prior to him purchasing the vehicle in 2006. The vehicle, ever since 1972, was owned by locals within roughly 20 miles from the original showroom floor (Knight Chevrolet in Southbridge MA). The vehicle did not originally come with the gold stripes. Those were added in the early 1990's personally by the owner, who worked for a local well known auto body.....they look amazing. This Chevelle is accident free and hopefully finds a new owner who will appreciate it as much as the past owners have. I'll be adding more details this week but if you have any questions in the meantime, I'll certainly try and get them answered ASAP. Again, since all the owners are locals, I can likely get any/all questions answered fully regarding the history of the Chevelle. On Mar-28-14 at 13:56:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Just a few things to add so I don't get the same questions over and over.......... ~~ No trades unless it involves a bank check for the sale price. Again, since somehow I still get at least 3-4 requests for trades each time this listing is renewed........no trades so please don't ask. ~~ Please do not email me stating something like, "How much if I pay you CASH.....?" I'm just wondering, how else does anyone plan on paying? I don't take IOU's or checks from other countries, etc. ~~ The current owner is in no position to "need" to sell this car. He is looking for space in his garage and doesn't use the vehicle enough to justify it taking up the space. He is not selling it due to any mechanical issues with the vehicle, personal financial issues, etc.......just moving onto something new, that's all. Thanks so much and best of luck bidding on this incredible toy/investment. Personally, I wish I could afford to buy it and who knows, if the listing ends early, maybe it's because I finally got the right scratch ticket!! I'd certainly move some things around in my garage to find space for this head-turner! Oh lastly, I was hoping to not have to put this in the listing but based on the number of email I receive regarding the subject I feel I should address it.....please don't email me with your own personal opinion as to the value/price of this vehicle. I would never in my life tell someone what they should be asking for something they are selling. If you feel this price is too high, that's perfectly OK, you are certainly entitled to your own "expert" opinion but please keep your thoughts to yourself.....some of the emails I've received are certainly less than professional. The appraisal was for $47k so while appraisals tend to be high, the asking price is within the "reasonable" category from how I see it.....especially with no "need" to sell this beautiful investment. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford steals Best Green Brand spot from Toyota, EV buyer survey goes online
Wed, Jun 25 2014Chevrolet is one of the Top Global Green Brands of 2014, according to brand consultancy firm Interbrand. Chevy ranks number 32 on the list, which cover brands across a wide variety of segments. The report measures brand perception and brand performance, and the gap between the two is small for Chevrolet. "The company is not only actively demonstrating its environmental commitment," says Interbrand CEO Jez Frampton. "It's communicating those efforts in an authentic way that resonates with customers." Chevrolet cites its Spark EV, Volt and Cruze models as reason for its green cred. This is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Being 32nd is good and all, but other automotive brands ranked much higher than the Bowtie. Ford, Toyota, Honda and Nissan took the top four spots in the report, respectively, with BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz all besting Chevrolet. The big takeaway here is that Ford topped the list. In the Top Global Green Brand list's four-year history, this is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Ford was second on the list last year, and 15th in 2012. "Ford embodies everything the business of the future must be: efficient, visionary, flexible, adept at problem-solving, cooperative, and focused on creating shared value," Interbrand says on its website. "From unveiling a first-of-its-kind solar-powered vehicle, the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept, to partnering with peers across sectors to do the seemingly impossible - like creating bio-plastic out of tomato fiber with Heinz-Ford is showing us what's possible." It bears mentioning that Ford's most recent MPG adjustments came after the study was conducted. Ford is also making the news for its 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine earning International Engine of the Year for the third straight year. Awarded Best Engine Under 1.0 Liter, the turbocharged three-cylinder motor earned high praise from judges. "This year's competition was the fiercest yet, but the 1.0-liter EcoBoost continues to stand out for all the right reasons – great refinement, surprising flexibility and excellent efficiency," said International Engine of the Year co-chairman Dean Slavnich. "The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is one of the finest examples of powertrain engineering." The 123-horsepower engine powers the Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost, and will be available in a version of the Ford Focus in the US later this year. See more about the award in the press release, below.
GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.
