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

GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain

Sat, Aug 9 2014

Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.
