FULLY RESTORED 1970 SUPER SPORT CHEVELLE! ALL NEW! 454/450 HP MOTOR, DISC BRAKES, 12 BOLT POSI, POWER STEERING, FAST & CLEAN!

1970 TRUE SUPER SPORT CHEVELLE! JUST COMPLETED A FULL RESTORATION LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AGO! ALL NEW, FRONT TO BACK, NOT A DIME SPARED! POWERED BY A FRESHLY BUILT 454/450HP MOTOR! LOADED WITH POWER STEERING, FRONT DISC BRAKES, AND IT'S ORIGINAL 12 BOLT POSI REAR END! OVER 50K INVESTED!

     It has taken just over a year to complete this full restoration. It has only been a week since the interior was completed and less than thirty days since the paint work was completed. Over all, the car has just about 100 miles on it since being completed. Originally, this was a 396 car. Today, it is powered by a professionally built 454 big block that is pushing over 450 horsepower. Just standing next to it, you can feel the Earth rumble below your feet. Now punch the gas and even the bravest human being will start clinching for dear life.

Body: The body on this Chevelle still retains the majority of its original sheet metal. Surprisingly it did not need all of the typical sheet metal replacement. It still retains its original floors, doors, roof, rear sill, cowl, rockers, and frame rails. The sheet metal that was replaced consisted of brand new full quarters, a one piece trunk pan, and trunk drops. All of this work was done professionally. This car is completely solid, rust free, and exceptionally straight. The body was taken off of the frame and new body bushings installed. The paint work was also done professionally. It has no blemishes, cracks, bubbling, nor any other issues. Not often can this be said but the paint looks just as nice in person as it does within the photos. All of the chrome through out the Chevelle is new. The front and rear bumpers are new. The head lights and bezels are new. The majority of the stainless is new or has been refurbished. The wheel house moldings are all new. All of the weather stripping, cowl covers, door inserts, everything is brand new. The front disc brake setup is all brand new. From the booster, all the way to the end of the lines. It is all brand new. The front suspension is also new as is the rear suspension. On the rear, we used a brand new set of NOS GM air shocks.

Engine & Mechanical: The 454 within this Chevelle has been completely rebuilt. It was built with a mild cam and performance heads. It has around one hundred miles on it since being completed. It does not smoke, leak, or burn an excess amount of fluid. It does run on pump gas but does require the higher octane (premium) fuel. When the body work was completed, the motor was dropped in the Chevelle so it was the second major item that was completed on this Chevelle. The 350 Turbo transmission does have a shift kit and it too was completely rebuilt. It shifts out smoothly with no problems and takes full advantage of the lower end torque. If you dump the gas, it will just sit and roast the tires. The power steering setup on this Chevelle was a remanufactured unit. The original front disc brake setup was completely disassembled and replaced with a brand new and more modern front disc brake setup. All of it is brand new. The original 12 bolt posi was also taken apart and regreased. It works flawlessly which you will see within the video located below. The exhaust is also all new.

Interior: With the exception of the original Super Sport dash, gauges, and back half of the center console, every inch of the interior is brand new. The headliner, front & rear door panels, package tray, visors, console insert, door & window handles, dash pad, steering wheel, carpet, door sills, front & rear seat covers, backs, overhead light, it is all brand new. This work was also done professionally and looks excellent. When you first enter in to the Chevelle it smells like new.

     There are definitely plenty of 70 Chevelles out there to choose from. Unfortunately though, there are not that many fully restored ones that haven't been ran through the ringer or patched together. With our Chevelle, you can take comfort in knowing that you are getting a new car that hasn't been on the road long enough to even be considered misused nor abused. In short, there is NO AGE to this car so if you're wanting your very own newborn, you've found it. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the Chevelle early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. I do have a clear title for this Chevelle. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

Recharge Wrap-up: Range-extended EV taxis in London, 2016 Chevy Volt interior two years old

Fri, Feb 13 2015

The first Metrocab range-extended EV taxis are operating on the streets of London. The cabs use a 12.2-kWh battery and two 50-kW motors, as well as a 1.0-liter gasoline range extender. Fuel economy is 98 MPGe on the ECE101 cycle, and total driving range is over 348 miles before needing to charge or refuel. Cabbies can expect to save GBP20 to GBP40 (about $30 to $60) per day on average. "The cash savings on fuel are significant, the ride and comfort outstanding, and my first customers are thrilled with the new cab," says the first operator of the new EV taxi, Preston Morris. "With its air suspension providing unrivaled comfort, panoramic glass roof for views of the city and silent powertrain, what's not to like?" Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet has had the interior design of the 2016 Volt finished for two years already, according to GM interior designer John McDougall. Beginning around 2010, GM received sketches from designers worldwide before narrowing it down to a handful of designs. Then the top three choices were molded from clay. The chosen theme was then refined for up to 18 months. "Every little thing you can imagine goes into that," says McDougall. "The glare angle from the windows, the placement of the controls, the placement of the seat. You have to create something that's beautiful and functional." Read more at GM Authority and at Inside EVs. More details have emerged about the Second Life Batteries Alliance. Vattenfall has announced a research project in partnership with BMW and Bosch to use retired EV batteries for stationary, grid-connected energy storage in Hamburg, Germany. Over 100 lithium-ion batteries from BMW i3 and ActiveE vehicles will make up a two-mWh storage unit for grid balancing, enough to power 30 four-person households for a week. The system is "compact enough to fit in a small building," says Bosch. Such storage systems are especially fit for storing and moving alternative forms of energy, which often fluctuate in supply more than electricity from a traditional power plant. Vattenhall will operate the storage unit for 10 years, with Bosch managing the batteries, during which time the three partners hope to learn more about battery applications and their performance over time.

Chevy Silverado Midnight Edition, Custom ready to stand out in pickup line

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Chevrolet spent its Chicago Auto Show introducing a pair of fullsize pickups that promise image-conscious buyers a truck experience that goes beyond the standard range, with the murdered-out Midnight Edition and the um, not murdered-out, Custom. Let's start with the Custom, which adds 20-inch alloys, as well as chrome bumpers, mirror caps and door handles to the Silverado LS. Available in both V6 and V8 varieties, and with the customer's choice of two- or four-wheel drive, the Silverado Custom is the decidedly mellower example of Chevy's special edition styling. The Midnight Edition, meanwhile, throws subtlety out the window with a menacing set of visual upgrades. Based on the Z71, the Midnight adds 18-inch wheels, a spray-in bedliner and unique Z71 and Bowtie badges, all in black, of course. The front and rear bumpers, headlamp bezels, tow hooks, mirror caps and door handles, are also finished in the stealthy shade. Check out our live images of both special edition trucks, and let us know what you think down in Comments.
