My wife and I originally bought this car from Alabama in hopes of making it a back-halfed car.  Unfortunately when we received the car, we decided that it was much too clean of a car to chop up!

So instead we pulled it apart, had new full quarters put on because some idiot cut the wheel lip off.  The motor was removed to allow us to soda blast the motor compartment.

Inside both doors and jams, also around the windows / front and back were soda blasted to bare metal.  There was absolutely no rust anywhere to be found in those areas.

The floor boards, the trunk pan, the undercarriage of the car are almost perfect! 

The doors open and close perfect and they have new felt and weather stripping.  Trunk opens and closes perfect, also has new un-installed weather stripping.  It was left off so you can see how clean and rust free that area is.

The interior of the car, along with the carpet and headliner are in very good shape.  You will need to get a new dash pad, as this one has cracks. 

The motor is Small Block Chevy, we were told that this is the original motor, we obviously have no clue if that's true or not.  We don't know if anything was done to the motor, as this is exactly the way we bought it.  However it starts right up, has great throttle response and sounds a little beefy but probably stock.  The Nova also has power steering.

Ok, now for the unfortunate details we need to list.

The lights have a mind of their own!  Everything worked, turn signals, lights, brake lights, when we got the car.  However, since the car has been sitting for about 8 months after putting it all back together, now only some of the things work, of course when they want to!  I assume it's just a ground wire somewhere.  Like I mentioned before you will need a dash pad and dash light bulbs.

The tires are just rollers, they hold air, but are junk.  The rims are in ok condition only.  They look better in the pictures, then they look in person.

The car can probably use a new back bumper.

The rear end I believe has a spool in it which means that every time you turn the car it makes a chirping noise from the tires.  Because both tires are turning simultaneously.  Obviously when you are going straight it is perfectly fine.  Some people like having it, some people don't. 

With all that being said, I am sure there may be a couple small things that might have to be fixed that we did not mention, but I think we listed everything.

Once again, you are looking at a very nice, very clean 1970 Nova. 

Fresh Satin Black paint with a good running motor.  The car has great looking interior and it is very structurally sound.  However, this is not a perfect car, so expect some imperfections, along with things that may need to fixed or changed to your liking.

The car is being sold with a notarized bill of sale from Alabama, because Alabama does not give you a title when you purchase a car made before 1975.  I can assure you, that you will not have any problems.  That is just the way some states operate.

We are selling the Nova with a very low reserve, we think you will be extremely happy with the car, especially for what we are asking for it.

This car is being sold locally and we reserve the right to end this auction at anytime.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will be more than happy to discuss any details with you.

Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.

Auto Show Notebook: Legendary Continental name inspired Lincoln's designers

Thu, Apr 2 2015

What's in a name? A lot for the Continental concept, and it gave Lincoln designers a sense of purpose as they styled the brand's upcoming flagship sedan. "The moment that we told them, it was amazing," Lincoln president Kumar Galhotra said. "They totally got it." "It" is cutting-edge technology wrapped in stately, large-sedan design. It's a nod to Lincoln's storied past, but a signpost for where the brand is heading. Though the Continental name dates to the late 1930s, Lincoln designers avoided making the concept overtly retro. "You can't let it pull yourself back too far in history, but you've got to design a car that lives up to the name," Galhotra said. Speaking to Autoblog on the floor of the New York Auto Show where the Continental formally debuted Wednesday, the Lincoln president reiterated that the car is on track to launch in 2016. It will compete against the Audi A6, Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series and other large luxury sedans. After its debut, the concept in New York will fly to China – another critical market for Lincoln – for display there. It will be replaced in New York by a prototype without an interior. The Continental is the latest high profile play by Lincoln to raise its image with consumers, who have either ignored or forgotten about it amid steep competition in the luxury sector from German and Japanese brands and a potentially resilient Cadillac. Lincoln sales are essentially flat compared with 2014 through the first quarter of this year, with total volume of 21,478 units. The middling start to 2015 comes on the heels of nearly 16-percent sales growth last year spurred by the launch of the MKC and the prominent signing of Matthew McConaughey to star in Lincoln advertisements. Other News, Notes & Quotes Speaking of names, Chevrolet did its homework before deciding to proceed with "Malibu" for its new generation of midsize cars. "We went out and researched it," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America. "People actually like the name 'Malibu,'" he said. Admittedly, the current Malibu has struggled in the marketplace against entrenched competitors, Batey said, but he's optimistic its awareness and historical value are assets to the dramatically redesigned sedan."The name's strong," he said. Meanwhile, in other Chevy news, the brand kicked off a new marketing campaign, "Real People, Not Actors" Wednesday. It will show consumers interacting with Chevys and their spontaneous reactions to the vehicles.

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.
