Full Restoration Just Completed! 100 Miles! True Super Sport 454/450 12 Ps Pb's on 2040-cars
Kansas City, Missouri, United States
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 (816) 308-0351

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years
Fri, Feb 21 2014Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
