Big Block Nova Super Sport Tribute with 454 and 4 speed (same body style as 1968, 1969, 1970, and 1971).

I bought this Nova shortly after retiring from the Air Force, and already completed most of the hard work. 

The body was all original and extremely solid.  There is currently no rust on the car.
 
Five years ago I had a "rat rod grey" paint job applied, along with some replacement quarter panel work (due to dents and very minor "dime sized" corrosion spots behind at least one of the rear tires.   

The Big Block has freshly machined 1970 396 "oval port" heads, and runs strong.  There is an HEI ignition, a nice set of ceramic coated "shorty headers" an edlebrock aluminum intake, and rebuilt Holley 780.  I believe the 4 speed is a 70's super T-10.  It now has a new clutch assembly, re-conditioned flywheel, and comes with a brand new $300 Hurst Competition Shifter Assembly.  The starter and starter wiring are also new.  The distributor cap, plugs, and misc hoses were recently installed in order to fire up the motor, which runs strong with open headers, and really needs to have a full exhaust system is installed before this beast is driven. 

Body is an extremely solid 1972 with no rust and 5 year old "rat rod" grey paint.  

Lots of reconditioned and new parts, including: clutch assembly, flywheel, starter, carpet, rear seat upholstery,  "pop-on" dash cover, new head-liner (in box), holly 780 "duel line single pump" carburetor, and brake power booster.  

The SS Hood is steel with  a 2 1/2" cowl, an SS Steering Wheel has already been installed.  Wheels are center-lines, front buckets and new carpet has not yet been permanently installed. 

Glass and trim are in excellent condition.  The stock power steering unit is on the vehicle, but a serpentine belt system complete with AC compression and power-steering unit also comes with the car (but will require the purchase of a later model water pump).

I've become increasingly unable to finish the work on this beast myself, so someone out there with the ability to finish this project could get a great deal.

Please email any questions to me through ebay, then check my feedback and bid with confidence.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

Here are 12 electric pickups in the works

Wed, Oct 21 2020

With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and “shatterproof” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique “frunkgate” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes

Thu, Feb 5 2015

General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.
