1966 chevy nova  2 door sport coupe V8 4 Speed

This is a nice little nova someone can have some fun with. It could still use alittle TLC to get it to the next level but shouldn’t be to bad to do.  From what I can tell from the casting number on the motor it looks to be a 1966 283 with a 4 bbl. Carb.  The numbers I found on the back of the block look to read 3949852. It’s hard to read so come check it out if the numbers are important to you.  The motor sounds nice with alittle bit of a lumpy cam idle but not crazy.  The 4 speed shifts nice and is fun to drive.  The carburetor should get alittle work or maybe a new one at some point.  Most things work in the car like the blower fan, the emergency brake, and the wipers. I see the horn and am radio are inop.  Most of the lights look to work but maybe a brake light out?  The windshield was replaced with a New one.  The dual exhaust is New. It has I believe flowmaster mufflers. The battery has also been replaced.

Inside the car has fairly New seat covers, carpet, headliner, sill plates, door panels + more.  Outside the body was very solid.  It did get a new quarter panel replaced just behind the rear left wheel.  The car has real nice looking base/coat clear paint. It has New bumpers, door handles, rocker panel chrome, wheel opening moldings and more.  The underside has had alittle work in the floors over the years but looks pretty solid and neat. The rear frame rails look nice and strong. Probably should have some cleaning up and maybe some black paint under there. Mileage reads 97,736 but i'm sure that's probably been over

 

All in all a real pretty car someones gonna have some fun with. I know he’s got aolt of money in it but it's gonna be sold regardless of what it does.

 

This description is mearly  my opinion so come verify or check it out however you like. I believe ebay offers an inspection also. Selling as is cond. Connecticut uses the registration and title as one so ownership transfer is done on the back side, we also have a bill of sale.

Final payment can be check, bank to bank transfer or cash in person. Please be aware any check must fully clear the financial system before car or paperwork leaves. my bank tells me that can be up to 10 business days. Thanks

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 engine blows up at just 891 miles

Thu, Jan 1 2015

You've waited and watched and waited some more for the arrival of your 650-horsepower, $78,000 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Finally, that joyous day arrives and you eagerly, but gingerly, begin to break-in the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 monster under your hood. Then 900-odd miles after delivery, your excitement grinds, quite literally, to a halt. That's what the owner of one 2015 Z06 claimed happened to him when a simple break-in drive resulted in a lunched engine. The owner, known as Lawdogg149 on Corvette Forum, says he was out breaking-in his car ahead of a January track event when it happened. "While making a pull from 35 miles per hour, I accelerated and shifted short of redline, and boom - the car began knocking. I pulled over and popped the hood. I could hear a loud knock coming from the No. 6 cylinder area along with a serious, grinding, metal-on-metal sound coming from the supercharger area," Lawdogg wrote. A subsequent trip to the dealer confirmed his concerns, with the service facility telling Lawdogg that the No. 6 valvetrain had failed. The dealer couldn't research the issue further, though, as General Motors requested the engine be returned for a more thorough evaluation. The good news for the Z06's unlucky owner, at least, is that GM will be covering the engine replacement under warranty, an expense that Corvette Forum estimates is a nearly $24,000 procedure. At this point, the two leading theories behind the engine's detonation involve a manufacturing defect – which could be why GM is so keen to tear the blown powerplant down – or a mistake on the part of Lawdogg. As Motor Authority points out, such an error could be something as simple as the Z06's owner accidentally shifting to first rather than third during his 35-mph pull. If, however, there's a deeper manufacturing problem with the Z06's engine, this might not be the only case we end up hearing about.

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip

Wed, Jan 21 2015

There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.
