Genuine 1967 SS396 Super Sport Red/Red Chevelle Sun Dried Tomato
RELISTED. Buyer never provided deposit and did not have funds lined up to close.
You know you just don't find them like this. A Real 138 Super Sport Factory Air car with the factory grease pencil markings "13817" and other grease pencil numbers still on the firewall, unmolested. The overall Metal and frame condition of this Arizona SS is pretty exemplary of a very long life in this area. This is a real factory Bolero Red SS396 with matching Red interior.
Although Dry Arizona is kind in terms of lack of rust which is a really big thing, still, if left in the intense sun and heat, you have here what I call a "Sun Dried Tomato." Evidently, the owner did not have a carport and the hood, roof and truck paint is thinned beyond retrieval.
With just a paint job, you would have one gorgeous, appreciating, collectible 396 Super Sport. I don't have to tell you that these cars done, command some pretty mighty money.
Title-Clear Arizona title in my name.
Options Besides Super Sport options, notable options include the Factory Air Conditioning, Tilt Steering wheel, Power Steering, Push button Radio,, 12 bolt Posti traction and 3 speed Turbo 400 Automatic.
Body Condition The Body appears very straight with good fitment every where you look. I had my fabricator/ metal man go all over and under this car before I bought it as I wanted his expert opinion to validate what I thought was an unusually solid car. He was very impressed with the car and found one small hole in the passenger floor pan (which I still cannot find) he could easily fix and recommended we install new poly body mounts soon.
Pictures show the front floor pans, that appear to be the original factory pans with factory paint still on them.
Also check out the engine bay, the inner fenders, radiator support, cowl and firewall are truly in amazing condition. New factory dripper style valve covers and air cleaner with PCV and vent tube was installed to finish off a really nice factory looking engine bay.
Trunk floor is raw and unpainted with light surface rust so hiding nothing, dirty but looks solid and the old factory spatter paint still exists on the quarter panels. The original Jack is in the trunk. (pictures)
Importantly, frame and undercarriage look good. (pictures) The exhaust system appears newer from exhaust manifolds through mufflers. But tail pipes are missing so exhaust is obnoxiously loud. Personally, I would replace with some muscle car magnaflows.

Major Mechanical Condition This Super Sport appears to have about a 10 year old exterior paint job, otherwise leaving things mostly original. The engine appears to be a replacement with a 1969/70 396/325 (402) with correct GM factory exhaust manifolds and correct Rochester Quadrajet and Factory Air conditioning. It starts immediately and runs great with not a hint of smoke or blow by. I drove it in 100 degree heat and it ran cool and did not detonate when shut off and it runs on regular unleaded. Ignition has been upgraded to HEI electronics.
It flies straight at highway speeds and shifts very effortlessly without any hesitation or tranny or rear end noises or jerks. The former owner/restorer installed new Spider gears and a new positraction unit in the factory 12 bolt, as there was slack. No slack now, but there is a slight hum on acceleration.
A note about the Air Conditioning. Pretty much complete with a condenser missing ($250 new) However, All the really rare under and behind the dash parts, even the hoses to side vents are all there. I know how expensive it gets to replace multiple sections of the a/c duct system and pulling the dashboard out to install it all, not to mention the time spent sourcing used duct parts as i just had to do it on a 68 Chevelle. Front signal lights are missing from bumper.
Glass All the Glass is in good condition without the usual scratches and door windows roll up and down.
Chrome and Trim Chrome bumpers look quite good and trim is good driver
condition, but not show quality.
Interior Serviceable and driver quality, showing some age. The vinyl seat covers are good except the rear upper top most section under the window is sun damaged. A New dash cap, kick panels and red package shelf have recently been installed. Odometer works, but speedometer does not.
Wheels & Tires 15" GM Rally wheels in good condition with stainless beauty rims and nice two piece caps that are correct for this model year.
****Because I have this SS priced to sell, A note on the tires: they are Brand New BFG Radial TAs, just mounted yesterday and have only 10 miles on them. With Buy It Now, they go with the car BUT If the car sells for less than the Buy it now, the car comes with the same Rally wheels, caps and trim rings as shown but whitewall radial tires that have a lot of tread on them. Or buyer can pay $620 for the BFG T/As and have both sets of tires. *******
Why Selling? I have a rotisserie restoration on a 69 Big Block Z10 Camaro in process, and a 1968 SS396 El Camino and a 1965 396 SS Chevelle almost done and a 1968 RS/SS Camaro convert that is finished and so I will soon have 6 cars and a 4 car garage!
The last 3 cars I sold here on Ebay all sold at the Buy it Now Price, so I think I know where to price a car to sell. And check my feedback on those sales.
This is a driver as it sits and you can cruise around town
as a rat rod, just paint it or

2020 Chevy and GMC HD truck spy shots reveal LED lighting
Mon, Aug 20 2018With Chevy and GMC's 1500 series pickups just starting to roll into dealerships, our attention naturally turns to the Heavy Duty 2500 and 3500 series trucks. We've seen these HD trucks testing already, but thes latest spy photos give us our first good glimpse of the two HD trucks' headlights through some translucent camouflage, and their designs appear very interesting and quite different from each other. The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado HD looks to be getting a striking set of LED lights that flank the grille. A previously released teaser image of the truck shows that the front lighting elements are split by a bulky wing that branches out from a big, upright chrome face, and both top and bottom units seem to incorporate LED slashes. If you look closely at the images, you can easily make out the Chevrolet script cut into the grille's top edge. Amidst a bevy of Chevy test trucks was one lone GMC model in a dually configuration, and the Sierra HD also appears to have some LED accent lighting up front. Unlike the boomerang-shaped Chevy LEDs, GMC's version sports a shoulder-like right angle of light bars. Assuming these are production-level lighting units, it seems the Sierra HD will stick pretty close to the face of GMC's latest light-duty pickup truck. We're still waiting for confirmation on what range of powertrains will be available in GM's next-gen HD trucks, but we're sure there will be both gasoline- and diesel-burning engines on the ordering sheet. We expect to hear official details on the trucks sometime soon.

Junkyard Gem: 2003 Chevrolet Tracker
Wed, May 22 2024When General Motors created the Geo brand to sell vehicles designed and — in some cases — built by Japanese partners, the first four models were introduced for the 1989 model year: the Metro (Suzuki Cultus), Prizm (Toyota Sprinter), Spectrum (Isuzu Gemini) and Tracker (Suzuki Sidekick). Geo got the axe in 1997, with the Metro, Prizm and Tracker becoming Chevrolets. Of those, the Tracker survived the longest, with U.S.-market sales continuing into 2004. Here's an example of a very late Tracker, found in a North Carolina car graveyard recently. The 1989-1997 first-generation Trackers were based on the Suzuki Sidekick, while the 1998-2004 Trackers had the Suzuki Vitaras (not to be confused with the much grander Grand Vitaras) as their siblings. Production of these trucks for the South American market (as the Chevrolet Vitara) continued in Ecuador all the way through 2014. The Tracker name has also gone onto some versions of the Chevrolet Trax around the world. This one is a base four-door hard top/rear-wheel-drive model, which had an MSRP of $17,330. That's about $29,789 in 2024 dollars. You'll find one in every car. You'll see. The engine is a Suzuki 2.0-liter straight-four rated at 127 horsepower and 134 pound-feet. A five-speed manual was base equipment, but very few American vehicle shoppers wanted three pedals by the middle 2000s. This truck has the Aisin four-speed automatic. We like it loud. It appears that someone associated with this truck graduated from Julius L. Chambers High School last year. In the United States, the Tracker was replaced by the Saturn Vue. If Tracker can handle (unspecified Middle Eastern country), it can survive the jungle back home. Siempre contigo.
Chevrolet only automaker to win EPA's 2015 Climate Leadership Awards
Fri, Feb 27 2015Chevrolet was the only automaker to be on the list of entities for the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Climate Leadership Awards. Of course, the accolades had nothing to do with any vehicle's tailpipe emissions, General Motors can still be proud. The automaker is engaging in what it calls the Chevrolet Clean Energy Campus Campaign. Chevy is working with the US Green Building Council, among other groups, to find ways for buildings in primary and secondary schools as well as college campuses to reduce their collective carbon footprint via better design. The EPA pointed out the "carbon performance methodologies" used by Chevrolet to run the program and spur lower emissions from its campus partners. The effort is part of Chevrolet's broader goal to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by as many as 8 million metric tons of CO2. And it's going to take more than bunch of plug-in Volt and Spark EVs to do that. Other entities feted by the EPA include UPS, Bank of America, the cities of San Francisco and Oakland, Clorox and Tiffany & Co. Yes, Tiffany. Take a look at the EPA's press release below, and find out more information on Chevy's program here. UPS, Bank of America, SC Johnson Among 16 Organizations across the U.S. Recognized for Climate Action / EPA also recognizes Chevrolet Clean Energy Campus Campaign, San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative in new Innovative Partnerships Category WASHINGTON – From an innovative partnership enabling colleges to sell carbon credits to fund clean energy projects on campuses to some of the country's leading corporations setting and exceeding aggressive emission reduction goals, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Climate Leadership Award winners announced today are demonstrating that innovative actions to combat climate change are smart business decisions. Sixteen organizations and one individual representing a wide array of industries from finance and manufacturing to retail and technology show exemplary corporate, organizational, and individual leadership in response to climate change. "I am proud to recognize our Climate Leadership Award winners for their actions to reduce the harmful carbon pollution that's fueling climate change," said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. "Our winners are demonstrating that a healthy environment and a strong economy go hand in hand.
