1970 Nova Ss 350 on 2040-cars
Tyrone, New York, United States
Running and driving 1970 Nova SS 350. A real Super Sport car and not made up. I know the previous owners to the early '70s and I have owned it for approximately ten years. It was last driven at the end of 2009 when it was taken apart for body repair. The body exterior has been stripped to bare metal. It comes with new full quarter panels and tail light panel. It was a complete car minus the console with gages that it originally came with. There is no exhaust system now from the headers back and the 350 front fender emblems are gone but all the other trim is there. The original color is Green Mist Poly with a black vinyl roof and it came with a Sandalwood bucket seat interior. The original buckets were stolen and replaced with '69 GTO seats. Carpet and headliner are gone but it has the headliner boughs. The floor was cut for a Super Shifter long ago. The body is very solid overall but has some rust through around the windshield frame and upper dash panel. The rear window frame is fine. Some small holes in the trunk floor, some small dents here and there. The front end, doors, rockers, trunk lid and floors are very solid. It comes with all the glass including a never installed new windshield. It has a factory in-dash tachometer that was not working. The odometer reads 79,000 plus miles which I think is close judging by pedal wear and other indications. All lights worked on the car when last driven. The original SS steering wheel is rough and it has an old custom wheel on it now. The engine is a stock 350 from a '75 Camaro with a fiberglass fan, Accel Super Coil, Appliance headers, 390 Holley, Edelbrock intake and valve covers. It has the original Muncie M-21 Transmission and a Hurst shifter designed for the console. Hayes clutch and transmission work great. It has the original 12-bolt posi-traction rear axle, 4.11 gears, Lakewood traction bars, finned aluminum cover and air shocks. Old Motion Performance front shocks. Brake parts and u-joints were all replaced. Newer 15x4 / 15x7 American Torque Thrust wheels and like new BFG tires with just a few hundred miles on them. The battery tray is temporarily bolted to the frame using existing holes so the car can be driven with the front clip off. I've tried to show the condition of the body in the pictures and have many more if requested. This was a tight, good driving car when last driven. Glad to answer any questions or send more detailed photos. |

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak
Wed, Sep 24 2014General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana
GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
