1970 Chevrolet Nova Lsx Project on 2040-cars
Gilmer, Texas, United States
|
This Nova is originally from Arizona (I have the plates and title) and has a really clean body. No rust issues and the driver's side front floor pan and transmission tunnel were replaced and coated with POR 15 due to a previous owner/hackjob of installing a standard transmission. The car was originally equipped with power brakes, front discs and power steering. I had a Chris Alston six-point roll cage (1 3/4 x .134 mild steel with hip height door bars) professionally installed by R&D Race Cars on South Congress in Austin. Comes with an original steel hood and a fiberglass Harwood hinged hood with low tension hood springs. Front fenders and hood are off the car in preparation for paint but come with the car.
The front subframe, upper and lower control arms and front core support were removed from the car, sandblasted and then powder coated black. Completely new front suspension kit; tie rods, ball joints, polygraphite bushings and body mounts, new front sbc coil springs. CPP complete 2" drop spindle power brake kit including CNC 4130 chrom-moly 2" drop spindles, 11" rotors, new calipers, pads, bearings, hardware, stainless brake hoses and new power brake booster and master cylinder. The entire front end is brand new, except for the power steering box that has been checked out. Complete new wiring harness from American Autowire (Classic Update Kit 500878) that includes every socket, connector, fuse box, flasher and switch. Front bench and rear seat recovered in black, original style upholstery from Classic Industries. New aftermarket steering wheel, Hurst QuarterStick shifter, Front wheels are Coy's C5 17x7 in gun metal gray with a polished lip and brand new BF Goodrich G-Force tires from Discount Tire. Trunk mounted red top Optima battery. Engine is a 2007 5.3l from a Chevrolet Avalanche that had 20k miles on it before it was broadsided. Local shop went through the engine and installed an AutoKraft 5/12 quart fabricated 1st generation Camaro/Firebird oil pan with pick up tube. Engine needs the cam and heads of your choice, but I can include some Camaro 241 heads if you'd like. Return style fuel system with a new Holley blue pump, braided line and Holley HP regulator. New Dynatech MuscleMAXX headers, 1 7/8 primaries/3" collectors that are silver ceramic coated. New Edlebrock Performer RPM LS1 intake manifold and MSD ignition controller (Part 7118). Mighty Demon 750 cfm carburetor. Truck style coil packs. Freshly built Turbo 400 transmission with new 3400 stall converter. Driveshaft done by Longview Driveshaft/4x4. Back wheels and rearend are still the same as when I got the car. I intended to buy a pair of 17x9 Coy's C5 wheels for the back when I got to the back of the car. Car needs the cam and heads of your choice and a radiator to run. I have a notebook with $13,000+ worth of receipts for the Nova, no expense was spared; I never intended on selling it. Comes with other assorted spare Nova parts and pieces I've collected over the last eight years. |

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
