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! ;)

2016 Chevy Volt sneak peek at CES

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Here it is, folks – your first real glimpse at the 2016 Chevrolet Volt. The gasoline-electric sedan will officially debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week, but Chevy gave us a sneak peek of its redesigned Volt at a media event in Las Vegas late Sunday, as part of its CES festivities. There isn't a ton to see here, and sorry about the low quality video (and for us not standing front and center during the reveal). But we can clearly see the car's redesigned front fascia Â– something recently previewed at a fan event in Los Angeles. For another view, check out a high-res photo of the new Volt from our friends at The Verge, here. Chevy even tweeted a photo of the Volt's new nose on its official Volt Twitter account, which you can see below. The automaker didn't divulge any details about its new Volt, but we already know quite a bit. For starters, the Volt will use a new, 1.5-liter gasoline engine and won't require premium fuel. It'll have more EV range and a bigger battery, too. We'll have a whole mess of information when the 2016 Volt is fully revealed in Detroit in about one week's time. In the meantime, here are some more looks at the Volt, courtesy of the Twitterverse. We're so excited about #NextGenVolt we brought it out early at #CES2015! Full details on 1/12 at #NAIAS. pic.twitter.com/hPCbTFGSV4 - Chevrolet Volt (@ChevyVolt) January 5, 2015 Take a look at the new Chevy Volt http://t.co/laCvWLRMXk pic.twitter.com/uOzRh5XCrP - Engadget (@engadget) January 5, 2015 The very first look at the 2016 Chevy Volt doesn't disappoint: http://t.co/PM0HcnyQOo pic.twitter.com/WFtoyd0utH - Gizmodo (@Gizmodo) January 5, 2015 Chevy just gave @Tim_Stevens a very quick look at the next-gen Volt at #CES2015. #CNETatCES http://t.co/3n6EK1yOrC pic.twitter.com/7KDYh0VSg0 - CNET (@CNET) January 5, 2015 Related Gallery 2016 Chevy Volt at CES Related Gallery 2016 Chevrolet Volt Teaser Images Green CES Detroit Auto Show Chevrolet GM Alternative Fuels Green Automakers Electric Hybrid Videos Sedan 2015 Detroit Auto Show CES 2015

Weekly Recap: Volvo buys Polestar, makes performance a priority

Sat, Jul 18 2015

Volvo is taking its performance business in-house, and the Swedish carmaker announced Tuesday that it bought tuning company Polestar, which has long been known for producing sporty Volvos. The move allows Volvo to ramp up its performance business, and it plans to increase Polestar-branded vehicle sales to 1,000 to 1,500 annually, up from the 750 total projected for this year. The companies have been working together on motorsports projects since 1996. Financial terms of the sale were not released, and Polestar workers will move over to Volvo. Former Polestar owner Christian Dahl will keep control of the Polestar racing team and operate it under a new name. In addition to sales volume, Volvo has ambitious plans for other parts of Polestar, including its aftermarket business. Volvo also said it will use its twin-engine hybrid technology for Polestar models in the future, though specifics and timing were not revealed. Meanwhile, Volvo announced it will offer a run of 265 total Polestars in the United States for the 2016 model year, with S60 and V60s available. "Driving a Volvo Polestar is a special experience. We have decided to bring this experience to more Volvo drivers, placing the full resources of Volvo behind the development of Polestar as the model name for our high performance cars," Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson said in a statement. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, get nose jobs Automakers tend to refer to light updates as 'facelifts,' and that's exactly what Chevy gave the 2016 Silverado and GMC Sierra. Chevy slightly changed the front end of the truck. Using the one photo released of the new Z71 model as a guide, we can see that the headlights went from a stacked vertical design to single bulbs, and they are set on top of LED running lights. The grille has more body-colored elements instead of shiny metal, and the hood has a new line running down the middle (look really closely). The design theme will be similar across the portfolio, though materials and details will vary, a spokesman said. Some models, like the High Country and LTZ will have more chrome, and the LEDs are only for the upper trims. Chevy also said it will use the eight-speed automatic transmission on more versions of the Silverado, and it updated the MyLink feature to support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Motor Trend wheels the 2015 Corvette Z06

Tue, Nov 25 2014

The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is capable of some absolutely wild metrics. Want proof? Carlos Lago from Motor Trend is here to break it all down. 60 miles per hour? 3.2 seconds. 60 to 0? 91 feet. Lateral acceleration? A staggering 1.16g, a figure that is the highest MT has ever recorded for a vehicle that isn't a race car. It's an utterly astonishing piece of work, this Z06, and just when you think it can't possibly get any more impressive, Randy Pobst hustles an auto-equipped Z06 around Road Atlanta in just 1:30. Aside from the eight-speed auto, Pobst's Z06 had the most aggressive aerodynamic package, the so-called Stage III. Take a look at the 650-horsepower Z06 in Motor Trend's latest video.
