1966 Chevy Nova Gasser

 

Here is a recently built 1966 Chevy Nova Gasser. This is a current restoration that is 95% completed. The car has less than 500 miles on it since it was titled. There have been hundreds of man hours getting this Nova to its present state. The car gets a lot of attention every time it goes out. Here are some of the major features of this car –

  • 454 Chevy big block; bored .060 over
  • Corvette 427 closed chamber high performance heads; casting # 3873858, with new valves and mild port and polish
  • New Scat connecting rods with new Wiseco 10-1/2 to 1 compression pistons.
  • 427 forged steel crankshaft – internal assembly balanced
  • Classic Edelbrock TR2X dual quad high rise with 2new Holley 600 double pumper carbs and electric fuel pump.
  • New Comp solid lifter cam and valve springs with Harland Sharp roller rockers.
  • New electronic ignition and distributor
  • New Mcleod hydraulic throw-out bearing with new clutch and pressure plate.
  • Muncie M21  4-speed  tranny that was professionally rebuilt to M22 Rockcrusher specs including new gears and steel mid-plate.
  • New Lakewood scatter shield.
  • New custom driveshaft by Denny’s Driveshaft’s.
  • New oversized aluminum radiator with dual electric fans.
  • Specialty Cars (out of California) front straight axle kit with double tube axle and heavy duty springs.
  • Professionally narrowed Ford 9” rearend with rebuilt posi center section; 411 gears and new Moser axles.
  •  Competition Engineering back half kit with 4 link rear suspension – fully adjustable.
  • 6 point roll bar with removable side bars
  • New Prostar wheels both front and back.
  • Mickey Thompson front tires, 24 x 5 x 15”  -  back tires: 29 x 18.5 x 15”

 

The body has new front fenders, door skins, and quarter panels. The car is painted a Thunder Gray Metallic with clear coat. I have the original steel hood which needs cut and painted to clear the carbs. I do have 3/4 of a gallon of paint and 1/2 gallon of clear. The car has all the original chrome and glass which is not in mint shape. If you are looking for an Autorama trailer queen; this is probably not the car for you. However, if you are looking for a fun, fast car to drive to shows that gets a lot of attention; then this could be the car you have been looking for. The car needs a little more attention to get it complete; but all the hard and expensive work has been done. The car has a new Painless wiring harness that needs trimmed and tucked under the dash. There is no heater or wipers installed; but I have the necessary components. The car has never been raced on the street or at the track.

I have the original front fenders; they need work; but can be repaired and sold. I have the original radiator and a bunch of misc items. Also, I have a used set of .060 over 13 to 1 compression pistons and rods for this motor – everything goes with the car.

Thanks for looking.

The car is sold as is with no Warranty.

2015 Chevrolet Silverado Custom glitzes up volume model [UPDATE]

Thu, Feb 12 2015

UPDATE: The original prices listed in Chevrolet's press release did include destination charging, despite not being specifically called out as such. We've edited the story to reflect this. The Chicago Auto Show's reputation as the home of special edition debuts grows stronger today, as Chevrolet is complementing the news that it'd unveil the Silverado Midnight Edtion and Colorado GearOn special editions in the Windy City with the debut of the Silverado Custom. And yes, it's different than the higher-spec Custom Sport that debuted just last month in Detroit. What's so custom about the Silverado Custom, you ask? Well, not a whole lot. The new truck is based on the popular Silverado LS Double Cab, and adds, among its most noteworthy features, a set of 20-inch, five-spoke wheels. From there, chrome is the order of the day, with shinier front and rear bumpers, mirror caps and door handles. The top portion of the front bumper, which is finished in black plastic on the standard LS, is matched to the body color on the Custom model. Standard LS interior features, like the 4.2-inch MyLink system with 4G LTE wireless internet, 40/20/40 cloth front seats, remain in place on the Custom, while it's a similar story with the powertrain. Choices below the sheetmetal will force buyers to choose between a 5.3-liter V8 or a standard 4.3-liter V6, and two- or four-wheel drive. Chevy is pricing a V8-equipped Silverado Custom 4x2 at $33,820 (including $1,195 in destination charges). Adding four-wheel drive brings the price up at $37,800, although as we said, selecting the 4.3-liter V6 will yield a more affordable Custom. Check out the full press release on the newest member of the Silverado clan, available below. 2015 Silverado Custom: Back to Basics, with Style $33,820 starting price for a well-equipped double-cab V-8 CHICAGO – Chevrolet takes aim at the heart of the pickup market with the Silverado Custom, which offers Chevy Truck capability and dependability in a stylish package, priced within reach of many truck customers. "The economic recovery has led to booming sales of high-end pickups like the Silverado High Country," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevy Trucks. "But there are also millions of customers in the heart of the market who want a great looking, well-equipped truck at an affordable price.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Jay Leno gets pulled over while roaring in a Corvette Z06 convertible

Tue, Jan 6 2015

No one is above the law, even if that person is a certain silver-haired auto enthusiast with a popular weekly video series about the cars in his garage. This week, Jay Leno experiences the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z06, but he also gets to have a meeting with some of California's Finest immediately after a high-speed blast. As opposed to the full-bore Z06 coupe with the seven-speed manual, Leno gets behind the wheel of the slightly heavier convertible version with the eight-speed auto. Being a droptop doesn't bother him too much, but Leno makes it obvious he wishes that he could be shifting for himself. Even if the auto is technically quicker, Leno says that swapping gears gives him something to do while driving. Of course, one of the major advantages of the convertible is the ability to listen to the Z06's thumping V8 unimpeded. With 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from 6.2-liters of supercharged muscle, it already puts down impressive numbers, but the sound might just be the best part of all. Around town, the 'Vette is quiet enough to easily blend in with the rest of traffic. However, tip the throttle down and the valves in the exhaust open up to turn the engine into roaring monster. Be careful where you make this thing howl, though, because it's pretty easy for the police to take notice. The host finds that out the hard way in this week's episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
