All numbers match.. never been cut up , misused, or modified in any way.. Everything works...Everything opens ,closes and locks.. One owner with 90k original miles...Garage kept all its life... Here's the story,,, This was my parents car that they bought new in 1972 at Luci Chevrolet in Vineland N.J.... It was ordered by me ( remember when you could order a car exactly how you wanted ? ) for them with minimal options.. I couldn't talk them into air condition because it cost about $250. more but I did get them to go for the tinted windows at $39. ..Cost new with options, power glide trans $169. power steering $100. body molding $33. AM radio $65. Vinyl roof $82. full wheel covers $26. W/W tires $28. vinyl interior $18. Tinted glass $39. undercoating was free.. .Total cost of $3,003 .. I have all original books, manual, emission control book, Chev. consumer info book, seat belt info book, finance contract from the bank, insurance paper and dealer order sheet from 1972...My parents both have been gone for many years... It was maintained religiously including in the garage washing in the middle of winter time with a bucket of water...At about 85 years old my mother ran into a car on the drivers side front fender.. Hood was not touched...From that time on the car sat in her garage as is because she was then afraid to drive.. She turned it over to my oldest son right before she died .. It sat in his garage for years as is until he needed the room for his new car.. I took possession of it a couple years ago.. I bought another '72 Nova and used the fender and grill parts to put it back together ( I have the side molding for that fender ).. Also put in a new radiator and gas tank .. It runs great and goes down the road nicely.. It is registered, titled, insured and on the road legally as an antique in my name.. The paint is mostly original but over the years my parents did have parts painted to fix scratches and dings but all matches and looks pretty good....There are some dull spots and some very minor surface rust spots that will probably buff off with a polishing compound.... About 30 years ago someone bumped it in the back and bent the rear bumper and the metal behind it.. It did not affect the trunk or the light... Tires are about 30 years old but hold air and have tread... Brakes feel good with no issue but have been on the car for about 25 years .. Muffler sounds like it is rusting.. There is rust behind the front and back wheels but floors are great and trunk still has the original speckled paint and jacking instructions.. I had plans of restoring it for sentimental reasons but my retirement and a Florida home have changed my priorities .. I very rarely run it other than a down the road and back about every few weeks... The last time I drove it it acted like it had cruise control.. Everything was perfect until I let off the gas and then it stayed at the speed I was going.. To slow it down I had to brake it or put it in neutral.. When you put it in neutral at highway speed it comes down to an idle so its easier to stop that way considering these old drum brakes on it.. That problem just started and I was told the kick down linkage may be rusty and sticking ... It will cruise up to 50 MPH ( thats about the fastest its ever been ) with no issue...Due to this cruise control like problem I do not feel comfortable allowing a potential buyer to test drive it.. I will test drive it for you for safety and my personal responsibility.. I think you will be convinced that this car is what I say and my honesty and integrity will not be compromised to sell it... Money is not an issue, its just that I don't want this car to sit and rust away when someone can give it a good home... Please check my feedback.. I'm proud of my 100%... Any question about this vehicle please e-mail me... I am not a professional mechanic or body work guy... All of what I describe is my own opinion or what someone has told me...I welcome you or your mechanic to inspect it.....If you win it and you can show me it is not as I described , you don't have to buy it when you come to pick it up, but please don't nit pick this 42 year old car because you changed your mind before even looking at it.. If your buying and transferring title without an inspection , the deal is over and it is your car... I don't think that I can be any more fair than that... I'm sure there are small things that I look at everyday on it that I just don't see because I've been looking at it for over 40 years ( kind of like you don't notice how gray you and your wife have gotten until you look at your old wedding picture,,, sorry honey ! ) ,, but please know I am not misleading you to unload a piece of junk !!!!!! If you purchase my car I want a $300. paypal deposit within 24 hours of the end of auction and the rest can either be 1 of 2 ways... a wire transfer to my bank or cash in hand... I will not accept any check of any kind for all or any part of the deal.... thanks for your consideration !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Autoblog's guilty pleasure cars
Tue, Mar 10 2015Guilty pleasures are part of life – don't even try to pretend like you don't have one (or two, or six). In the non-automotive space, this could come down to that secret playlist in your iPhone of songs you'll only listen to when you're alone; or think of that one TV show you really do love, but won't admit to your friends. I've got plenty, and so do you. Going back to cars, here's a particularly juicy one for me: several years ago, I had a mad crush on the very last iteration of the Cadillac DTS. Oh yes, the front-wheel-drive, Northstar V8-powered sofa-on-wheels that was the last remaining shred of the elderly-swooning days of Cadillac's past. Every time I had the chance to drive one, I was secretly giddy. Don't hate me, okay? These days, the DTS is gone, but I've still got a mess of other cars that hold a special place in my heart. And in the spirit of camaraderie, I've asked my other Autoblog editors to tell me some of their guilty pleasure cars, as well – Seyth Miersma, as you can see above, has a few choice emotions to share about the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Read on to find out what cars make us secretly happy. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG This decadent convertible is the epitome of the guilty pleasure. It's big, powerful, fairly heavy and it's richly appointed inside and out. It's a chocolate eclair with the three-pointed star on the hood. Given my druthers, I'd take the SL65 AMG, which delivers 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. That output is borderline absurd for this laid-back convertible. I don't care. You don't need dessert. Sometimes you just crave it. The SL line is about the feel you get on the road. The roof is open. The air, sun and engine sounds all embrace you. It's the same dynamic you could have experienced in a Mercedes a century ago, yet the SL gives you the most modern of luxuries. An Airscarf feature that warms my neck and shoulders through a vent embedded in the seat? Yes, please. Sure, it's an old-guy car. Mr. Burns and Lord Grantham are probably too young and hip for an SL65. I don't care. This is my guilty pleasure. Release the hounds. – Greg Migliore Senior Editor Ford Flex I drove my first Flex in 2009 when my mother let me borrow hers for the summer while I was away at college. The incredibly spacious interior made moving twice that summer a breeze, and the 200-mile trips up north were quite comfortable.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
