Chevrolet Chevelle Ss Ls6 on 2040-cars
Westland, Michigan, United States
1970 ChevelleSS 454ci 450hp LS6***MATCHING NUMBERS*** Yes, you read that correct. This is a COMPLETE matching numbers 1970 LS6 chevelle. By complete matching numbers I mean the car has its ORIGINAL CRV stamped matching numbers 454 LS6 motor it was born with, its original numbers matching M22 4 speed transmission, and the original 12 bolt rear end with 3.31 posi gear. For those of you who know what a rare bird this is, feel free to skip over the introduction of the monster that is the 1970 Chevelle SS 454ci 450hp LS6. The LS6 engine option was intended to continue on as an option in 1971, but was dropped prior to being put in any 1971 Chevelle models. Reports state that the LS6 option was available on 1971 models but was canceled in May of that year, with just 14 LS6 engines having been produced for the Chevelle that never made it into factory cars. It is because of this that the 1970 LS6-equipped cars are that much more intriguing and collectible still to this day. Documented as one of the greatest Chevelles ever produced, the 1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS6 model was the highest powered Chevelle manufactured in the model’s lifetime, which ran from 1964 through 1977, and was the only GM car at the time to have ever topped the horsepower rating of the Corvette. Even with up to a reported 4,475 LS6 models said to have left the factory floor for the 1970 model year (reported production numbers are inconsistent at best), LS6 Chevelles remain highly sought-after collectors items. EObviously with being the king of the street and having a power plant producing factory rated 450hp and 500lbs of torque (many believe the real power was in excess of 500hp) a good deal of the very few of these produced were blown up, smashed, crashed, beat to death on the strip, and left to die. Of the survivors, VERY few are matching numbers. That being the case, recent sales of this model chevelle in the past 12 months has ranged in the $110,000-$130,000 range. Only 136 matching numbers chevelles are in the LS6 registry! What does that say about the availability of one of these? And the market is making a strong rebound with classic auto and muscle car values and prices again on the rise. So, about this specific car... Again, this is an honest numbers matching LS6 with a 4 speed manual trans, 3.31 posi rear end (posi was an option on ls6 optioned chevelles with a gear ratio below 4.10 and mandatory on cars equipped with the 4.10). Highly optioned, this car comes with a factory tach and highly desirable bucket seats. It has a pin down hood, functional cowl induction with a flap that automatically opens to draw in high pressure air in front of the windshield and force it into the carb, power brakes, power steering, and upgraded suspension that was mandatory to get the ls6 motor. Just the required options (non inclusive of the posi, bucket seats, and tach) that had to be purchased to add the ls6 motor added something like $1800.00 to the sticker back in 1970. Laser straight, this car has just under 88,000 original miles, and only 458 since its complete frame off restoration. The body is all original, free of rust issues, not loaded with bondo, and looks as good today as it did in 1970. Beautiful chrome and bright work. This car does not leak, smoke, rattle, or burn oil. The undercarriage is just as clean as the top, and the interior is like brand new. This is not a project vehicle, not a tribute car, not a recreation, hasn't been restamped, and doesn't need to be wrenched on. She sits now just as she did in 1970 wearing forest green paint, white ss stripes, dark green metallic interior, ss steering wheel, F41 special performance suspension, disc brakes up front, drum in the rear, 454 ls6, 4 bolt main, solid lifter cam, dual plane aluminum intake, 800cfm holly carb, forged steel crank, forged steel connecting rods, aluminum pistons, high flow heads, it is a muscle car collectors dream....Want the best and baddest car at the show? Want a car only a lucky few have been privileged to own, drive, heck not too many people even get the chance to see these other than on TV or in magazines. This is a car similar to that of a yenko or copo and certainly wouldn't have a hard time drawing a crowd wherever you may take it. She runs and drives excellent, and fires right up when the key is turned. Full size wheel and tire in the trunk along with factory jack. I could truly go on and on about the car, what it is, what it means to me and collectors alike, how rare and special it is....but at some point I must stop typing and allow you to see the beauty in the 200+ photos.

Compact SUV Comparison: Specs, pics and reviews of every brand's crossover
Wed, Jul 25 2018Honda CR-V vs Toyota RAV4. Chevy Equinox vs Ford Escape. Mazda CX-5 vs Subaru Forester. Whichever combinations of compact crossover SUV you're considering, there's probably a comparison test or chart out there to read. Heck, you can even create a three-car comparison yourself here at Autoblog. However, if you want a bunch of that information all in one convenient place, well, here it is. Our mega comparison of specs, features and photos of compact SUV entries from every mainstream manufacturer that sells them. That includes the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox, 2018 Ford Escape, 2018 GMC Terrain, 2018 Honda CR-V, 2018 Hyundai Tucson, 2019 Jeep Cherokee (it's already on sale with notable changes from 2018), 2018 Jeep Compass, 2018 Kia Sportage, 2018 Mazda CX-5, 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (none of Mitsu's SUVs are perfect fits for this segment, so we deemed the MEC the most competitive fit), 2018 Nissan Rogue, 2018 Subaru Forester, 2018 Toyota RAV4 and 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan. We can update this comparison as more information about 2019 models is released, most notably the Forester and RAV4. Now, there are certainly some models that are smaller (Nissan Rogue Sport) or larger (Kia Sorento) that could also be considered, but we figured it was wise to stick with those in this sweet spot of comparable size and price. We also included links to Autoblog reviews, buying guides and smaller comparisons. Engines and Transmissions With rare exception, this segment features four-cylinder power. Sometimes it's turbocharged, often its not, but standard engine outputs are generally in the same ballpark. Therefore, we'd recommend focusing on torque output, as it's what will make a difference around town or when passing, and weighing that versus fuel economy (the Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain, Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-5 make particularly strong cases in this regard). Many drivers aren't too fond of continuously variable transmissions (CVT), either, so that's another thing to consider and note during a test drive. As you can see, several models are available with performance upgrades. Besides the Jeep Cherokee's available V6, all are more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The exception to this would be the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape, as their 1.5-liter turbo engines don't prioritize performance. Instead, they serve as overall upgrades to the base naturally aspirated engines standard on only their base trim levels (CR-V LX and Escape S).
GM slashes prices in China as sales falter
Thu, May 14 2015Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.
