MUST SEE Restored to Show Condition, 3 Owner Southern Car, Factory Build Sheet, 84K Original Miles, 260 DETAILED PICS & HD VIDEO. Put together at the Baltimore GM Plant and delivered to Lustine Chevrolet, this Chevelle has been garaged its entire life in North & South Carolina by 3 private owners, including myself as one. My Chevelle is a classic example of flawless preservation and care. In the photos, I have presented the flawless, original, clean, and rust-free floor pans and interior sheet metal still painted the original Ascot Blue from the factory. Even the factory sound deadening material was perfectly in tact. The original build sheet was still housed under the rear seat, albeit in pieces. With the door and rear quarter window panels off, take a peak inside and throughout and I show near flawless sheet metal still in factory condition. It has a gorgeous, solid, original trunk pan and awesome unharmed sheet metal on the exterior, repainted to show quality in its original Ascot Blue color. The body is straight as an arrow. With near perfect original floor pans, it is restored and very clean underneath as well. Bound for a true collector’s garage, it can easily take far beyond its selling price to get it to its current restoration quality and functionality. Hands down, this true 1971 Chevelle in its current condition is one of the cleanest and finest in these parts. Many dealer and owners can claim they have a clean 2nd generation Chevelle and advertise their cars as such but how do you really truly know what you’re buying? I have provided photo after photo and a complete video of this car piece by piece to demonstrate just how clean this car really is. From drivetrain, to body, to interior this car drives, looks, and is preserved just as the engineers at GM would have wanted. I’ll be sad to see her go but I am extremely proud of the condition of the car I’m selling.

Call Andy (Private Owner) at 407-417-4184 or andy.valentin@gmail.com. Car is located in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Other Features:

  • I personally rate the drivetrain a 9. It has a professionally built, balanced, and blueprinted 350 cubic-inch V8 easily running at 325-350HP (not the original motor) mated to the original turbo-hydramatic 350 (has the B162390 stamp on it to match the VIN) and the original 2.73:1 GH code 10-bolt rear end. It is a really nice balance of street power and good fuel economy and is perfectly synchronized even to 90mph + with great throttle response. Modern upgrades include electronic ignition, Holly 650 CFM carburetor, Holley Aluminum Intake, mild cam, headers, roller rockers and glass pack dual exhaust. It is all housed in a very clean, restored engine compartment.
  • I personally rate the body and paint a 9. The body is very straight due to the solid original sheet metal. Professionally repainted back to the original Ascot Blue. I have waxed this car over and over and have yet to find even 1 chip in the paint. Nicely painted underneath the trunk and hood and in all jams. It is one step below Barret Jackson showroom quality, which means you can still win your class at any car show without the stress of having to be an absolute trailer queen. Non-factory add-ons include the vinyl top, white racing stripes, and cowl hood. I have the original hood in near perfect condition if someone desires to eliminate the SS-only stripes.
  • I personally rate the interior an 8.5. The beige interior color is a perfect complement to the Ascot Blue exterior. Very hard to find interiors this clean and well put together with only minute flaws. The smallest details in excellent condition are what set it apart.
  • Factory C60 code A/C (per build sheet) and Heat (A/C taken out for service/charging when I photographed the car. The unit is complete)
  • Factory Power Steering
  • Factory Power Brakes
  • Mechanical items (See Video) from speedometer to fuel gauge to lights to door handles to locks to windows to wipers, to heater, etc. all work
  • All exterior chrome trim is in excellent condition, including front and rear bumpers.
  • Very few miles on the Cooper Cobra radial tires sitting on perfect Keystone Mag Wheels
  • The glass on this car is flawless and contains no scratches. There is a tiny crack on the front windshield the size of a small marble from a rock.
  • Weatherstripping and seals are flawless.
  • Suspension and brakes are all operational and the car drives extremely straight and smooth.
  • VIN 136371B162390
  • Original transmission code – stamped w/ partial VIN B162390. Build sheet also has CBC TRAN on it, which is the “Chevrolet-Buick Combined” 350 so this was a factory 350 and the original is still on the car
  • Rear axle code – stamped GHC0402, which stands for GH=2.73:1 ratio 10-bolt, C= Ohio Plant, 040 = 40th day of the year (February 9), 2 = 2nd shift. Build sheet also has the common G97 code and says “273 ratio axle” next to it.
  • Engine code – I cannot tell what car this engine came out of. The engine stamp and associated partial VIN looked to have been “decked” during the machining process when the motor was being put together. It is a 74 block.
  • Other build sheet options: U35 code electric clock, U63 AM Radio, and U76 Antenna in windshield, power steering, C60 Air Conditioning.

Texas cops pull armed suspect from burning car

Fri, Jul 29 2016

A high-speed chase through Fort Worth, Texas ended in dramatic fashion earlier this month when FWPD pulled armed burglary suspects from the burning wreckage of their escape vehicle. According to NBC DFW, Fort Worth police were dispatched to Avington Way on the evening of July 16 to investigate reports of a burglary. The burglary victim told police he had arrived home to find three individuals hauling his property out of his house. When he approached them, one of the suspects pointed a handgun at him and told him to stay back. Then all three suspects climbed into a silver Dodge Avenger and sped away. FWPD officers spotted the Avenger a short time later on Sycamore School Road and, after the car refused to pull over, the chase was on. Police chased the burglary suspects through the city at speeds approaching 100 mph until the Avenger blew a red light and was t-boned by an oncoming pickup at the intersection of California Parkway and James Avenue. As the pursuing officers closed in on the disabled car, it suddenly caught fire. One suspect bailed out and ran for it, but the remaining two were trapped inside with the flames quickly mounting. Despite the spreading fire and the threat of armed suspects in the vehicle, police officers rushed to pull the men from the wreck. The driver was removed easily, but the passenger was unconscious and trapped behind a crushed passenger door. The scene was caught on the officers' body cameras as they pried the door open with their bare hands. Eventually the officers got the semi-conscious man out of the passenger seat just as the car was completely engulfed in flames. "It was pretty dramatic. We recruit people that can think on the fly, think quickly, and perform under pressure," FWPD Sergeant Marc Povero told WFAA. All three suspects are facing charges for burglary, and the driver was charged with evading arrest.

Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition

Sat, Dec 13 2014

To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:

Leaked GM document shows GMC Sierra I6 diesel is more powerful than F-150's

Thu, Oct 4 2018

GM told us earlier this year that the 2019 GMC Sierra would be getting a 3.0-liter I6 diesel option, but it never mentioned power or fuel economy figures. Hold the phone though, because a leaked GM Canada document just showed up online that lists out the details we've been waiting for. Originally published by TFL Truck, the 3.0-liter oil-burner supposedly makes 282 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque. For those who are counting, that's more than the Ford F-150's 250 horsepower and 440 pound-feet from its 3.0-liter diesel. It soundly bests the 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque from Ram's 3.0-liter diesel as well. Fuel economy is another story, though. The promotional material states that it will get 28 mpg on the highway, which is 2 mpg short of the F-150's 30 mpg — mind you, it's only capable of that magical 30 mpg figure in rear-wheel drive form. There's another caveat here, too; these are numbers for Canada, so they're not exactly finalized EPA figures. However, we wouldn't expect drastic differences between the two when the American numbers come out. The leaked documents also state the diesel Sierra will be capable of towing 7,800 pounds. That number seems remarkably low when compared to the F-150, which can tow up to 11,400 pounds with its diesel. Extra power and torque would have us assume that GM could get even better numbers than Ford, so we're going to hold our final judgment for official word. A 10-speed automatic will do the shifting on the diesel, just like on the 6.2-liter V8. Since the Chevy Silverado is also expected to get this engine, we can assume the figures would be almost, if not identical, to those we see here. We recently drove the 2019 Sierra and Silverado without the diesel engines, so go check those reviews out if you'd like to know more of our thoughts on the redesigned GM trucks. Related video:
