Frame off 1970 SS 454 Chevelle convertible project..I've owned this car for 30 plus years.The car was sold new at Schonlaw Chevrolet in Hollywood California in May of 1970.The trim tag is missing but the car was originally red on the exterior with pearl white bucket seat interior.
I have restored many car over the years and have just to many projects right now. I have decided to put this car up for sale at this time. The frame was completely disassembled ,sand blasted and all parts were repainted in detail.When I bought it I was told it was a LS5 car. The car does not have any papers to prove the LS5 option but does appear to be a real SS car. It has all the correct OEM F41 SS suspension. Original rear sway bar and boxed lower trailing arms. Original SS Big Block front springs and sway bar. Factory disc brakes and F41 lower A Arms. The engine is a 1970 3963512 block with the correct 3964290 LS5 heads .The engine was running when I bought the car but I removed the top end and was going to rebuild it. The transmission is a M21 and works fine.It does have a nice clean 12 bolt rear end but not original to the car. The wheels have been blasted and repainted correctly with new caps, rings and lug nuts.Tires are not brand new but but nice. The complete floors were replaced with a 1 piece floor including the rockers all the way from the firewall to the back bumper. Both quarters were replaced as well as the inner wheel houses. The front fenders and hood are also brand new..The doors are OEM rust free originals. I do have a lot of small parts that go with the car. Included in the sale is. All side glass. Nice 4 core radiator Complete 512 long block LS5 engine Bell housing w/clutch and pressure plate Original SS dash wiring Complete convertible top frame.(needs top front header bow, sold new) M21 transmission Windshield trim and rear pinch trim. Front bumper is a fresh rechromed OEM bumper. Back bumper is a older rechromed original but very nice yet. I'm sure there a few thing I have forgotten to mention that go with . This car is in the stages that you could paint it any color or build it anyway you want it. When I get a car to this point and after the body is painted and set on the frame with the engine mounted in the frame, it takes me 2 weeks by myself to have it reassembled and driving down the road.| My reserve is way less than what I have into the car. You can email with any questions. Auction ends Monday evening the 15th On Sep-10-14 at 18:19:18 PDT, seller added the following information: Somebody mentioned the car cant be a SS because it doesn't have the Big Block steering shaft in the picture so I added the picture of the Big Block Shaft I removed off the car. |

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.

GM to add 1,200 workers at 2 Michigan factories
Sat, Feb 29 2020DETROIT — General Motors is adding 1,200 jobs at two Michigan factories to build midsize SUVs and two new luxury sedans. GM said Friday that its Lansing Delta Township plant will get a third shift and 800 more workers to build the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave SUVs, which have three rows of seats. The Lansing Grand River plant will get a second shift and 400 more workers to build two new Cadillac sedans, the CT4 and CT5. Employees laid off at other GM factories will fill the new jobs first, then workers will be added, GM spokesman Dan Flores said. The company has not determined yet how many new people will be needed, he said. Both additional shifts will start working sometime between April and June, the company said. Lansing Delta Township now employs about 2,500 salaried and blue-collar workers, while the Grand River plant has 1,400. GM sold more than 147,000 Traverse SUVs in the U.S. last year, a 0.4% increase from 2018. Enclave sales were up 3% to just over 51,000, according to Autodata Corp. Related Video:
