You are looking at one of my many cars that I will be selling on ebay. I am selling my collection of cars due to personal reasons.  Within the next few weeks I will list my other 70 Nova, 73 Scamp, 49 Olds, and many more.  This Nova is a 1966 Clone SS.  It has a 283 engine with a 3 speed automatic.  Engine was completely rebuilt with many performance parts including a B&M power charger/super charger.  Engine, trans, rear work great.  Rebuild job has less than 3000 miles on it.  It has dual exhaust with flow master mufflers, but there are no tail pipes installed and never were.  It has Cragar wheels, like new tires, 205-70-14 in the front, 245-60-14 in the rear.  It does not have power steering or power disc brakes. Overall the paint looks great, however there are small chips on the paint of the right side roof behind side window, (I just noticed and did not even touch them up), on the left side same place the paint has some some light bubbles, there are small bubbles on the left rear bottom rocker panel, and slight paint wear on the deck lid.  Rear shield has a few sand paper marks in it, but it is not too bad and hard to notice.  Both front fender are new however every once in a while when you make a sharp turn hitting a bump, the right fender with scrape the tire.  The left used to do the same but I had it adjusted.  I never got around to do the left because it does not rub all the time and it does not damage the fender or tire. There are also some slight imperfections on the right side of the hood, that could probably be sanded out and buffed.  The hood is fiberglass.  I have attached pictures to show the areas that I am describing but these areas really don't look that bad and you must realize that this car is not a perfect show car, so these issues did not bother me, however I as always try to over-disclose everything.  From a slight distance the car looks great.  The inside overall is decent, however the headliner is original and is white, it also has two holes in it where I think at one time a mouse ran in and out of it.  Either way it should be changed to red.  Seats looks good as well as the carpet.  The door panel are Ok, however they got warped from dampness where the car used to be stored.  Eventually you should replace them.  The left door hinge pin is starting to get loose and eventually it should be replaced.  The underneath of the car over all is decent.  It has a good fuel tank, trunk, shocks, frame rails,  however it does have some rust areas that I just noticed on the lift, but none of the areas are in a serious place.  I've attached some photos of the underneath to show the spots.  At one time the floor was refinished from the inside and they did not finish the underneath surface to match.  The spots that are bad (again the spots are not in a safety area) are easy fixes.  I just got a price to fix the spots correctly and professionally from a auto fabrication shop and he quoted me a dollar amount not to exceed $500.00 to make it perfect.   Again I am not really worried about these areas that much to fix them, but if somebody was making a show car they could easily repair the areas at a low cost.  The floor panels are solid and this car is not a complete rust bucket, it just needs to be finished properly to be a show car.  The  area you see on the underneath of the drivers side floor was replaced on the inside of the car , however whoever replaced it did not cut out the underneath to cover it correctly.  As you can see, I am attempting to list every and all details about my car so that there is no surprises. The miles on the odometer read 29840, the title reads 126,350, the car will be sold with miles exempt.  This car at one time was a automatic on the column, then had a clutch and now is a automatic.  As seen in the pictures the clutch pedal was never taken out, so you can take it out or leave it in, in the event you install a stick shift.   This car turn heads every where it goes.  It sounds great, the 283 engine screams of power and it is fast and it looks as good as any other clone ss that is out there driving by.  It is certainly not perfect, but if you want a clone nova ss for a decent price, this is the one.  The car could be driven home, but I would recommend towing it, especially if you are going a distance, because of the low gearing.  The speedometer works, but it is not accurate.  The car is being sold AS-IS.  It is located in Coal Township, Pa 17866.  Buyer will be responsible for shipping costs and transfer fees.  A $200 deposit is required at the end of the sale.  I prefer cash or paypal, but I will not release the car until the paypal money is cleared into my account.  If you are the purchaser, please be prepared to pay for the car.  Please do not come to pick the car up and ask me to reduce the price.  I have over-described this car so that I am not hiding anything so there should not be any surprises.  When you physically see the car the surprise you should see is that it looks pretty good.    Most of the problem areas that I have described would have been missed by the buyer.    My son has just put this car on you tube, while we were taking it for a ride.  When I get the links I will list them or you can request me to email to you.  Thank you and happy bidding!

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

A conversation with GM's Mark Reuss on MPG, aluminum and Corvettes

Wed, Feb 19 2014

There was plenty to talk about when General Motors hosted its annual mid-December holiday media reception a few months ago. GM had just decided to pull its global Chevrolet brand out of major European markets, where Chevys have competed directly with GM Europe Opel and Vauxhall vehicles, and the US government had sold its last remaining shares of GM stock. But most important was the company's just-reshuffled leadership. Post-bankruptcy CEO Dan Akerson had announced that he would step aside and that 52-year-old Mary Barra would replace him on January 15. Not only would she be the first woman to lead a major automaker, she would also be GM's first engineer CEO since Bob Stempel in the early 1990s. "I look at 2013 and 2014, as the retooling of General Motors" - Mark Reuss Replacing her as executive VP for global product development (and purchasing and supply chain) would be 49-year-old Mark Reuss, who had served a stellar four years as North American president, and elevated to corporate president (from executive VP and CFO) would be 42-year-old Dan Amman. All three are relatively young auto enthusiasts who are liked and respected inside and outside the company, and their collective talents and experience are highly complementary. I've interviewed Barra and found her smart, personable and knowledgeable, though she carefully walks the corporate line in speaking and answering questions. I met and chatted with Ammann for the first time at that holiday reception, and he made a good first impression. But I've known Reuss for some time as a genuinely good guy and a highly capable and inspiring leader, and I believe he is exactly the right person for the global product responsibility once famously held by the outspoken, oft-controversial Bob Lutz. So I jumped at an opportunity to join a group interview of Reuss (with mostly business reporters) at the Detroit Auto Show in January. It was an interesting session of mostly good questions, which he answered with refreshing candor and humor. "I look at 2013 and 2014, as the retooling of General Motors," Reuss said. "We've taken down almost every plant in North America, converted and turned it this last year, and to do that with award-winning vehicles and pretty flawless launches is key. We have to keep the train rolling on great product, because the rest won't happen without the best product, period." A reporter asked whether GM was pushing big trucks, SUVs and Corvettes again because gas is cheap. "No," Reuss said.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
