This is a rare Canadian built example of a 1967 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport Hardtop. Full documentation is available for this vehicle through General Motors of Canada Limited. I have a partial documentation on it. Please see second picture. You cannot get documentation on US built cars, unless it was saved when new.
This Super Sport model is 1 of only 214 produced in Oshawa, Ontario Canada. Back in 1967 the original retail for a 1967 Chevy Nova SS was approximately $2,487.00. Today the NADA lists a low retail as approximately $12,250.00, and average retail as approximately $33,600.00 and a high retail as approximately $46,400.00. Go to NADA.com and pump in your zip code and see for yourself. . The car is currently titled and registered in Massachusetts with a current inspection sticker and can be driven anywhere, please come see and drive for yourself. Most things are original to the car with the exception of the current V8 motor and the few after market parts. The motor is a 1973 Chevrolet Corvette 350 block with Comp cams 262H cam and 1968 Chevrolet 327 heads. The transmission is the original 2 speed power glide with the original 10 bolt rear end. Not sure if this was a Canadian option or standard back then, but it has multi leaf springs in the rear. There are some differences between the US and Canadian built cars. Call me if you would like to know more. The pictures were taken on 10/24/13. Please feel free to click on the pictures and email them to yourself so you can zoom in and better see all aspects of the car. Things that are worth noting or that could be done to this car: The paint and the body are in ok shape in most areas. It has an older repaint of the very rare original Tahoe turquoise LL code option color of the car. Please look closely at the existing paint and body on the driver’s side lower door and lower portion of the quarter panel behind the door. The lower portion of the driver’s door and rear quarter panel should be skim coated and repainted. The carpet is faded. There is, approximately, a dime sized hole in the original headliner on the passenger’s side close to the sun visor. Please look closely at the original seats because they do have rips on the top outside bolster seams. But there are no rips or tears on the seat bottoms and backs. There is less than typical rust through on the lower chassis cross members, floor areas and also below the front inner rocker. The tires are ok, but do have some dry checking. Missing the lower SS anodized aluminum trim. Brakes need to be bled for a firmer pedal. Heater works great, has original front and rear seat belts, still retains the original beautiful console and shifter, original tinted windows and back glass.

Note: For the person buying this vehicle and for extra fees I would make available new & used factory and aftermarket parts, too many to list all, but here are just a few, Heidts super ride II front end with stainless control arms and chrome coil over shocks, this savings could translate to money off the car auction. May let go of a Chevy II Nova block with crank and 194 fuellie heads. Also have a 1963 327 Corvette block, if interested. You would need to inquire for other parts. Please call with your needs. Thanks. I have owned many of these 1966 and 1967 Nova Super Sport cars over the last 35 years and I have never owned or seen another Canadian 1967 Nova SS like it. Only 214 of this model were made in Canada. Please be aware that in 1967 approximately, only 10,100 Chevrolet Nova Super Sports were produced.
A rare, unmolested, documented, true 1967 Nova Super Sport, probably does not come up often, or if at all. Here's your shot at it. Good Luck. These cars will soon be 50 years old and we all know what will happen to the price then, don't we.
Can have it stored locally if needed, please ask your questions early, not at the last hour. Thank you.
Please look at my selling feedback and see the previous vehicles, as well as other items and parts that have been sold in the past, and the buyers that were very happy with them.
Again Please Note: This 1967 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport is 1 of only 214 (117 vin) and one of 645 of both the 117 and the 118 1967 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport models, ever made in Canada. All vin.117 cars are Super Sports, all vin. 118 cars are Super Sports.The 1967 Nova SS came standard with an L6 engine, the 194 L6 or 230 L6, options for the V8 were also available, 283 or 327.

Approximately 8,200, 118 cars were made, approximately 1,900, 117 cars were made. of which 431, 118 1967 Nova Super Sports and 214, 117 1967 Nova Super Sports were built in all of Canada. The only 2 places that built these cars were the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada plant and the St.Therese, Quebec, Canada plant. These were the plants in the US that made them also.

And also the depth and detail of the areas that need to be addressed. I believe this is a rare car and good opportunity for somebody who just wants to drive around in a 1967 Nova Super Sport. You will not believe, or find another set of tail lights that perfectly match the chromed pot metal die cast rear trunk Super Sport Molding, because the tail lights are exactly that, chromed pot metal die cast. That is just another one of the differences between the US built and Canadian built 1967 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport. The US built tail lights are clear , anodized aluminum only. The cigarette lighter has an amber lucite knurled ring around the bezel, Canadian only and the list goes on. Please note there are a lot of Novas on ebay that have trim tags and Vin tags that are different from each other. Before you start spending your hard earned money on these cars, make sure your trim tags and your Vin tags match. For instance, 118 Vin to 118 trim, 117 Vin to 117 trim, 116 Vin to 116 trim, 115 Vin to 115 trim, 114 Vin to 114 trim, and so on and so on. And make sure your titles concur with those tags. I may be willing to sell the car for $17,999.99 without the front bucket seats, front and rear seat belts, and both die cast tail lights, before a bid takes place, please give me a call if this suits you. otherwise Good Luck and Happy Bidding! If you like, and or, want this car please, take a deep breath, pick up the phone, and call me. I will not bite you. It's that easy. Who knows, some day you may be glad you did.

Jaguar I-Pace vs. Tesla Model 3 and other EVs: How they compare on paper
Thu, Mar 1 2018The 200-mile club of electric vehicles is really growing. The most recent member is the Jaguar I-Pace, the company's first pure EV. It promises luxury, performance, style, and most important, good range. Nearly as recent is the Hyundai Kona EV, and while it doesn't promise luxury or performance like the Jaguar (it's also smaller), it does pack impressive range. With the introduction of both of these electric cars, we thought we would see how they compare against each other, and the other two big names in high-capacity electric cars: the Chevy Bolt EV and the Tesla Model 3. This isn't intended to be a direct, apples-to-apples comparison, as the four are quite different. If anything, they break into two groups: bigger and more luxurious, and smaller and less expensive. Then again, the number of vehicles with this electric range is small and comparisons to EV's with less range wouldn't be too kind to the other guys. If you want to learn more about these EVs, and compare them with other cars, be sure to check out our Car Finder and comparison tools. Horsepower and torque There is one clear winner here, and that's the Jaguar I-Pace. It packs a whopping 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. That comes through a pair of electric motors (one at the front, another at the rear) that provide the Jag with all-wheel drive, the only one of these vehicles to offer it (at the moment). Altogether, it allows the I-Pace to have the best 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum is the Hyundai Kona EV. It's front-drive, like the Bolt EV, and has effectively the same amount of horsepower as the Chevy at 201 horsepower, but its 0-60-mph time is almost a second slower. And the low-range version of the Kona, excluded because it doesn't go more than 200 miles between charges, is slower still. The Tesla Model 3 is the only vehicle with rear-wheel drive, and with a 0-60 mph of 5.1 seconds for the Long Range model, it is still very quick. Range and energy use Frequently, the all-consuming question with electric cars is, "How far can I go on a charge?" And to go the farthest, you need the long-range Tesla Model 3. It can go 310 miles. It has the added advantage of being able to use the network of Tesla Supercharger stations, though they are pay-per-use with the Model 3. Even the lower capacity Model 3, with just 220 miles of range, can use these stations.
GM's MPG overstatement could affect 2 million vehicles
Tue, May 17 2016Late last week, GM admitted that three of its large SUVs fuel economy window stickers did not match their actual efficiency ratings, and so the vehicles couldn't be sold. The stickers on the 2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave said their ratings were one to two miles per gallon better than they should have been. Officially, the number of affected vehicles sits at about 60,000. But Consumer Reports makes a good point: what's up with all of the previous model year SUVs that are basically the same vehicle? To wit: the 2016 model year vehicles are not substantially different than the 2015 or the 2014, or even going all the way back to 2007. On the EPA's fuel economy website, all of these older models will "have better stated fuel economy numbers than the new vehicles in GM's dealerships," Consumer Reports noted. CR's best point, and the one that makes the 60,000 number potentially grow to 2 million if all of the vehicles built on this platform are affected, is that "[i]t seems unlikely that the company would change the powertrain on these carryover models so late in their model cycles in a way that would cause a dramatic, negative impact on fuel economy." GM says that earlier model year SUVs are not affected and the EPA did not respond to CR's question about the potential for more discrepancies. We've seen automakers reverse course before, so if GM has to come out with a mea culpa soon, don't be surprised. GM is rushing corrected stickers to dealers so that the SUVs can be sold again, but a fix for the already-sold vehicles could be trickier to solve.

Weekly Recap: Revisting the BBC report that ended Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear run
Sat, Mar 28 2015Jeremy Clarkson's long run as a Top Gear host has come to an end, and the reason is clear: His physical assault on one of the show's producers crossed a line, and the government-owned BBC couldn't tolerate it. The incident between Clarkson and Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon was initially described as a "fracas," and Clarkson was suspended. But his popularity and widespread support – even British Prime Minister David Cameron weighed in – suggested that the controversial Clarkson might be given yet another chance. The BBC put this to rest Wednesday when it sacked Clarkson and revealed the findings of its investigation. The report spelled out how Clarkson struck Tymon on the patio of a North Yorkshire (UK) hotel, leaving him with a bloodied, swollen lip. It was severe enough that the producer sought medical treatment. During and after the attack, Clarkson shouted expletives at Tymon and threatened to fire him. The noise carried into the hotel's dining room and even to a bedroom. Local police investigated the incident, but Tymon isn't pressing charges. The huge audience numbers, Clarkson's popularity and the high-octane excitement of Top Gear all melted away in the eyes of BBC director-general Tony Hall, who saw an attacker and a victim. "For me a line has been crossed," he said in a statement. "There cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations." In that moment, Clarkson was the bad guy, though he was actually the one who reported it to the network and made repeated attempts to apologize to Tymon. He's also urged the media to leave the producer alone. Hall voiced regret in the statement that announced Clarkson's contract would not be renewed, but the BBC decided to move on. Rumors are swirling about possible replacements for Clarkson. The network says it wants to continue Top Gear in 2016 and is looking to air the rest of this season's episodes. Despite the controversy, the show has a global audience of 350 million viewers and is one of the BBC's most valuable properties. It's unclear what Clarkson's co-hosts, James May and Richard Hammond, will do, as their contracts were also reportedly up to be renewed.
