First, and most importantly to the Chevelle purist, is the question..........IS THIS A REAL CHEVELLE SS and can you prove this?

The answer is, YES! I did not have a build sheet for this car, and we all know how poorly General Motors kept track of SS records in 1972 in the US, BUT...............not in Canada!!!!! At GM Canada, they have a Division called GM Vintage Services Div. And they have all of the records on all GM Canada built Chevelles. So, if you are fortunate enough to have had your SS built in Canada and have no build sheet, they will give you all of the info on the birth history of your Chevelle. This even includes the dealer it shipped to, which in my case was Bud Colt's Chevrolet in Lansing Michigan, they will also give you build date, all options that were ordered on the car, and standard items. They will also tell you how many cars with your option and standard packages that they built in that model year. To authenticate and prevent tampering on these reports, they use raised GM certification seals <like a notary of the public seal> and they place this over the VIN #, and options that affect the car, and the employee creating the report. They use 3 seals per sheet. In this case, the Z15 option is for the SS and cars built to this spec that year was 1,542 vehicles. These sheets of authenticity go with this Chevelle. This means everything to many of us that want a true, pure Chevelle SS. It is a fact that most SS Chevelles out there from 72 are clones and most without the original engine. This car has it everything that true Chevelle folks want! Clones without original motors going for $25k to $35k just blows mind but I guess beauty and value are in the eyes of the beholder. This car has, and will continue to appreciate in value for many many years!!!

This is a thoroughbred and NOT a clone! She is right now, as she came off the Assembly Plant Floor..........a true Chevelle Super Sport!

Now, almost every 40 year old car has a story to tell and this one is no exception. The car is in very good condition. It was purchased from a retired gentleman in Southern Michigan. After many phone calls to previous owners, the original engine was a barn find!!! The engine was real rough <picture in ad of as it was before re birth> and was sent to the best in the business, D&S Detroit Muscle for a complete re birth. She was stripped, baked, re machined, painted and completely rebuilt. She was brought up to 300 HP plus <look out big blocks> built up to 4 bbl and was put back where she belongs, in her first home as she came from the factory. She has less than 50 miles on her and runs like the day she came off the line, only better < there is a full warranty on the engine>. New MSD Ignition, Heddon coated headers, new pan etc. This car sounds AWESOME! Engine compartment was cleaned and painted as well. Over $8k was spent on this engine project and I have all receipts for all work performed.

New carpet, new dash face, all gauges professionally rebuilt, new pan, seals, gaskets, hoses, trans mount, rebuilt drums, new springs and shocks, new tie rod ends.

Seats and dash are excellent. Tires very good. Everything under the hood is like brand new and is warranted. Interior is excellent! If I were going to keep her, I would have her wet sanded and buffed out. Paint is a 7 , but I am very critical. Cowl door should be re striped.

I encourage you to come have a look and take her for a drive.

The ONLY reason that I am selling this great car is because I just bought a 1970 SS with a 4 speed which was on my bucket list! I am 52 years old and survived open heart surgery earlier this year and the Mrs told me to go buy my 4 speed.

If you want a car that you can drive for many years, worry free, this is the car for you! You won't be disappointed! I am sure I have missed something, and I am no mechanic so I included a pic of the specs on the car as well. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding! Shoot me an email with any questions or to schedule a day to see the car.

Will also consider trade for 1966,67,68, or 69 Chevelle SS of equal value or as part of a deal. No other trades accepted, sorry!

I can help with scheduling shipping as well. I like Reliable Transport.

Spring is here, and this is a car that you can drive cross country tomorrow with confidence!

If you would like a video of the car running, please let me know. I cannot figure out how to do it in the ad, and the kids are at college! ;)

Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition

Sat, Dec 13 2014

To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:

Recharge Wrap-up: Batty battery covers, Mercedes at Silvretta, new Hyundai Sonata Hybrid available in 2015

Tue, Jul 8 2014

Apparently, Chevrolet Volt battery covers make suitable homes for bats. As part of an Eagle Scout project, Matthew Netherland created 30 bat houses out of scrapped Volt battery covers donated by Chevy. 22 of the bat houses will be set up near hydroelectric dams in Michigan. Each bat house will accommodate 100 bats, and divert the scrapped materials from the landfill. The battery covers also make great nesting boxes for wood ducks, which General Motors has previously set up at its Milford, Michigan Proving Ground. Last weekend was the Silvretta E-Auto Rally, which saw emissions-free vehicles cross the Montafon Mountains in Austria, including cars from Mercedes-Benz. These cars included the B-Class Electric Drive, B-Class F-Cell, SLS AMG Electric Drive and even the Smart Fortwo Electric Drive. Also on hand for the Silvretta Classic Rally was a V8-powered C111, a 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC and 300 SL Roadster. Read more in the press release, below. BMW has finalized pricing for the i8 in the US at $135,700 (plus $925 in destination charges). In addition to the base price tag, which we've known for a while, BMW Blog has the complete pricing guide with options and packages. Most of the i8 orders were the Pure Impulse World package, which includes various aesthetic upgrades. It also provides membership to the BMW i Pure Impulse Program, which allows you to "to enjoy innovative ideas and trends in a variety of areas, including home styling, culture, gourmet gastronomy, design and many more." Head over to BMW Blog for more information. The new generation of the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid will arrive later than the rest of the model lineup, confirms Car and Driver. While the gas-powered Sonatas get updated now for the 2015 model year, the Hybrid remains unchanged until late this year or early 2015, when it will arrive as a 2016 model. Hyundai is offering a 2015 Sonata Eco edition, but with 28 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg highway (32 combined), it's not quite as appealing as the current Sonata Hybrid's 36/40/38 figures. Read more here. In June, average US fuel economy was 25.5 miles per gallon, making it the fifth straight month above 25 mpg, according to University of Michigan. The average window sticker ratings from vehicles sold in June dropped slightly from 25.6 mpg in May. The year started at 24.9 mpg in January, and hasn't dropped below 25 mpg since.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW cars to share i tech, Jordan to build solar EV charging network

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Jordan is looking to promote EVs and build a solar charging network. The country is waiving import tariffs on electric cars, and is spending $120 million on solar chargers. It plans to build 3,000 charging stations, along with 30 MW of solar power. Some chargers will be powered by solar canopies, while others will get electricity from nearby solar farms. Jordan's solar plan should also help to lessen the amount of energy it needs to import from nearby countries. Read more from Navigant Research, or at Green Car Reports. BMW's mainstream cars will benefit from technology borrowed from the i3 and i8, according to BMW sales head Ian Robertson. In an interview with Automotive News, Robertson said that next-generation cars will use carbon fiber more extensively, and that more cars will get plug-in technology. He said that about half of i3 buyers opt for the range extender and added that it is incorrect to refer to a range-extended electric vehicle as a plug-in hybrid. Read more at Automotive News. The ethanol market should remain healthy despite falling oil prices. While cheap oil could drive down ethanol prices, demand still remains due to the federal biofuels standard. Additionally, ethanol producers may find it cheaper to ship their products as domestic oil production drops and railroad shipping opens up. Ethanol byproducts like distillers grains continue to sell, and foreign demand continues as other countries impose their own renewable fuel standards. Read more at Yahoo News. Via Motors will launch the production of an electric Chevrolet Silverado. The company will convert the pickups into range-extended EVs at its assembly line in Mexico, near GM's Silverado plant. Via has the capacity to produce 10,000 vehicles per year at its Mexico facility. Via Motors Chairman (and former GM Vice Chairman during the early days of the Chevrolet Volt project) Bob Lutz wants to help make EVs mainstream in America, and believes that requires electrifying pickups and SUVs. Read more in the press release below.
