For sale is a 1962 Chevy II/Nova Convertible. I purchased this car around 2009/2010. I cleaned the car up and got it road worthy. From then it has been a great around town on a nice day car. This car is not perfect and needs some work. It is a great driver and gets a lot of looks and thumbs up. I will provide the most honest description possible, if you have any questions or think I missed something please contact me. The Nova has a Chevy L6 230, which was rebuilt by the previous owner. The motor runs very smooth with great power and has been upgraded to HEI. The transmission is a factory powerglide and history is unknown, shift great with no issues. The Nova has 4 lug and drum brakes all around with factory wheels and hubcaps. New tires were added and have very few miles on them. The car has the following factory options: Dash Pad, Power Brakes, Courtesy lights, Bumper Guards Front and rear. I have added a factory SS gauge cluster to the car. The oil pressure, fuel and speedometer all work. The temp gauge is not hooked up to the SS cluster and is currently ran to an under dash gauge. All lights and wipers work. I put some new speakers and a radio (in glove box). Very quick job, just so my daughter could listen to some tunes. Has two sets of key, one original GM set and backup set. The body of this car is in overall good shape. All the bodywork was done prior to me getting the car. As you can see it is painted a “Man Purple” color. There is some rust on the car and pictures in description show the trouble areas, so there are no surprises. The hood will need to be replaced, poor paint prep has left some of the areas prone. Please review the included pictures to see the rust locations and severity. None of the rust areas are through the body. The car does clean up very nice. The top on the car is need of replacement; it was outfitted with a glass back window, which is included in purchase. Most cars have plastic back windows, which fade and become a problem. The interior was redone around the same time as the paint, it shows some wear and cracking from sun on the top of the rear seats. Seat belts for four mounted in the car. Carpet is faded, but I have placed a nice NOS floor mat in the front. The car will come with a lot of parts, around seven plastic tubs and many boxes. Parts are not all convertible specific, but Nova 62-65. I believe it will all fit in the car with the top up for transport, if being shipped. Parts included the following and more. NOS Brake light kits X 4, NOS door lock kits, trim, two NOS floor mats for wagon, nice kick panel vents, nice windwing glass, low mileage heater, trim, gauges, hubcaps, window sets (tinted wagon), Pypes SS exhaust for passenger side with muffler, wiring, brackets, misc nuts, bolts, etc. Also included is a brand new California Car Cover custom fit cover, replacing the previous one. UPDATE 9/3/14: I was asked to check the floor pans for an interested party. Pictures have been taken are available via requesting through eBay. The passenger side of the floor is 100% solid and in great shape. The driveride, has few spots that are through, near drain plugs, however the previous owner patched from above and riveted the patch on. I tried to remove the carpet for better pictures, but it is glued so well it will be a full day job. Any questions please message through eBay. Thank for looking. This is a list of thing I know the car needs done if wanted: - Hook up heater o Included is a low mileage heater with a good heater core. (Removed from a 40K car) - Roof to top latches o These will need to be replaced - Vent windows o Driverside is cracked and rusted, have OEM glass will perfect chrome to replace (both side) - Alignment o Car does pull a little to the left - Replace top o If planning on driving in weather, replacement of the top would be smart. Or run with the top down. This has been a great family car for us, but a new project is on the way and the convertible needs to find a new home. I am willing to work with the new owner on assisting with getting the car shipped. I will make sure it is packed and secure for the shipper to pickup. I am the current owner and it has a clean CA title in my name. The car will come with the original CA black plates. I have the records from the previous owner also. Totaling around $4500, which was done in the 1990’s. This is an old vehicle and is sold AS IS. If you would like to see the car in person, it is located in Capitola CA and I can arrange if needed. I have tried to provided an honest and complete description unlike many do on eBay, if you would like specific pictures or have any questions, please contact me through eBay. This car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. A deposit of $500.00 via Paypal is required at end of auction within 24 hours, the remaining amount is due within 7 days. Thank you. |

GM delays 3.0-liter Duramax diesel in Silverado and Sierra pickups
Thu, May 23 2019Stricter testing protocols around the world are making it harder for automakers to predict launch timelines. GM is the latest to get caught in emissions nettles, the Detroit carmaker forced to delay the launch of its new Duramax 3.0-liter inline-six diesel for the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500. That's what company reps told dealers in a memo seen by Automotive News this week. Dealers and buyers had been promised the Flint, Mich.-built oil-burner in early 2019, but AN wrote that the EPA certification hiccup has turned into a "slight delay." A GM spokesman told Motor1, "[We] did not attribute [the delay] to a single entity, as the truth is this is a collaborative effort between GM and several government entities. We will make the 2020MY Duramax available for dealers orders soon, and expect to deliver the first trucks to customers soon after emissions testing is complete." We know the new 3.0-liter Duramax diesel has 277 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, outdoing Ford's 3.0-liter PowerStroke diesel by 27 hp and 20 lb-ft. But without final EPA paperwork, GM can't release the numbers that will show how the two engines stack up when considering fuel economy and tow ratings. The certification process has been sticky for a few other makers of late, especially since the Volkswagen Group situation in 2015. BMW had to delay the launch of four diesel models in 2016 over EPA testing. The new Ram 1500 dribbled out in a trickle last year for reasons thought to deal with EPA testing, coming as it did a year after the EPA investigated Ram's EcoDiesel engines in 2017 and 2018. More recently, WLTP testing in Europe caught out just about every automaker over there. Since we're almost halfway through 2019, the delay until the 2020 model year is only a few months. Still, GM told dealers to cancel any orders for the engine for this model year. Dealers will need to resubmit the orders once opening begins, but GM hasn't said when production will begin other than "soon." The company said that it will offer 2020-model-year replacement vehicles to customers and dealers. If prices hold into the next model year, the 2020 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 with the inline-six diesel will come at a $3,890 premium over the 2.7-liter turbo four-cylinder, and a $2,495 premium over the 5.3-liter V8.
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 concept suggests a diesel off-road future
Thu, Nov 20 2014"It takes the Colorado to a whole new place." – Mark Reuss The Chevrolet Colorado looks set to gain a more capable off-road version, with the company previewing a potential design direction with a ruggedized concept Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Called the Colorado ZR2, the concept brings back the name used on off-road-tuned S-10 and Blazer models in the 1990s and 2000s. The ZR2 has a track that's four inches wider than the Colorado Z71, which is currently the line's most capable off-roader. The ZR2 is fitted with a new grille, power-dome hood, custom wheel flares and off-road-style fascia that reduces overhang and has flip-out aluminum tow hooks. It's all slathered in an outdoorsy hue dubbed Cyprus Green. The are electronic locking front and rear differentials, skid plates and mono-tube coilover shock absorbers. It all rolls (or crawls) on 275/65R18 off-road tires wrapped around custom 18-inch aluminum wheels. There's also a spare tire assembly mounted in the bed, which has a spray-in liner and 48-inch lift jack should things go afoul on the trail. "It takes the Colorado to a whole new place," Mark Reuss, General Motors executive vice president of global product development, said at the reveal. Power comes from the 2.8-liter Duramax diesel engine making 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. This engine will arrive later in the year in the production Colorado. While the ZR2 remains only a concept, it suggests a new path for the Colorado – one we hope Chevy decides to take. Chevrolet Introduces Colorado ZR2 Concept Aggressively styled, more capable and driven by new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine LOS ANGELES – Chevrolet today introduced the Colorado ZR2 concept – a vision of how Chevrolet could take the all-new midsize truck's off-road capability to the next level. It also showcases the new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine that will arrive in the Colorado lineup later next year. The aggressively styled concept builds on the capabilities of the production Colorado Z71 and advances the legacy of Chevrolet's previous ZR2 production models. "From the bold stance to the trail-ready special equipment, the Colorado ZR2 is all about the fun of driving where the pavement ends – and doing it in characteristic Chevy style," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
These are the five most ridiculous attacks on the Chevy Volt [w/videos]
Thu, Aug 7 2014It's been a long, strange trip for the Chevy Volt from the time when the now-odd-looking concept version (above) was introduced at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show to today. And now, General Motors announced that the second-generation Chevy Volt will make an appearance at the 2015 Detroit show in January. This debut represents a victory for GM with what has easily become the most politicized car of the 21st Century. There are plenty of reasons for someone to criticize the Volt, but what's amazing is just how much anti-Volt energy has been spent not on things like the styling or how the EREV setup is not as efficient as a pure-EV powertrain. As we wait for more official information on the new Volt, we thought it would be fun to go back and look at some of the most wildly incorrect reporting and strangest attacks on the Volt from the archives. There is so much good stuff out there, it was hard to pare the list down, but these are our five favorites. Amazingly, they're not all clips from Fox News. Check 'em out below. 5. GM Is Going To Stop Making The Chevy Volt In The US Do you remember when GM was about to move Volt production to China? Well, yeah, this was reported back in early 2012 when a GM executive mentioned that the automaker would get benefits of building the Volt in the places where it sells them. This was spun into a story of GM taking Obama bailout money and then running to China. The Blaze was not happy: "Given the fact that Federal government helped itself to millions and millions of taxpayer dollars under the pretense that it was going to combat high unemployment by creating 'green jobs,' it would seem that moving research and development (and possibly manufacturing) overseas is slightly, well, counterproductive." Well, of course, that never happened. There's no way to say that GM will never build a version of the Volt in China, but the news we hear rumors of these days is that GM is going to move production of more Volt parts (specifically, the motors) to Michigan from overseas. 4. The Chevy Volt Is A Fire Trap There has never been a Volt that just spontaneously lit up while driving down the road. Yes, there were Volts that caught on fire. Yes, that's a scary thing. But there has never been a Volt that just spontaneously lit up while driving down the road. These were crashed test vehicles with destroyed batteries and plugged-in vehicles that were not the cause.
