You are bidding on a 72 Chevy Nova with 78,000 original miles. A little back history on this car. My father owned a auto body shop years ago and ordered his chevy parts from Strohl Chevrolet in Fogelsville PA. The guy that would run parts out to the body shop bought brand new off the lot this 72 Nova. It was always garage kept. He then sold it to a relative who removed the original 307 and power glide transmission. That guy tore the front end off and installed a 350 with a turbo 350. He never completed this project and in turn sold it to the guy whom I bought it from. The guy I got it from bought all kinds of parts to finish it and never got the chance. It had been sitting in his yard for the past 12 years up on jack stands with covers over it.
I recently purchased this car and put the front end back on and made it drivable. The transmission was rebuild and had zero miles on it. I drove the car less than one mile since it has been running. It had B&M trick shift fluid in it that looked like the day it was put in. The transmission is shifted on the column. It tends to bind going through the gears. The linkage might need a little tweeking. The motor is a 350. I was told it is a 4 bolt main block out of a 71 Nova SS. Has steel heads with an edlebrock intake and a 700 Holley carb. Does have a cam in it. Sounds very healthy.
The car is solid. The only issues with rust are around the passenger wheel well in that back. This can be seen in the pictures. There is a little rust on the driver side wheel well behind the mud flap. A tree branch fell on the top of the drive side 1/4 and let a nice dent. This can also be seen in the picture, as well as the dent on the door. I was told the second owner was backing up into his garage prior to removing the original motor and trans and caught something with the door. There was body work done to the driver side fender which now has primer on it. The trunk floor is solid. It is so original that there is still a factory window clip under the original mat.
The interior is in very great shape. There is a rip on the passenger side seat bottom. Someone did cut up the dash where the radio goes. They also put speakers in the kick panels. Other than those few things very original as far as interior goes.
I am selling this until the end of the month. If the car does not sell I am keeping it and giving it the proper restoration it deserves. I do have a clean and clear PA title that verifies and states that mileage of 79,001. The car will need to be picked up from my residence. Also included is a 12 bolt rear that I was told came from the same 71 SS Nova that the motor came from. Along with the 12 bolt the car had a disk brake upgrade from the 71 SS as well. It will need an alignment. There is also a set of tires and wheels that come with it. The 2 corvette style rally's come with it, but they do not clear the front brakes.
If there are any questions please ask and I will do my best to have them answered before the auction ends. Please understand I do NOT live on the computer and might not be able to respond in a few days.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
Chevy Corvette Z06, Ford F-150 Raptor join Lego Speed Champs
Tue, Oct 20 2015Get ready to park some performance machines on your desk: Lego's 2016 line of Speed Champions kits will add seven new vehicles for next year, according to an update to the database Brickset. These include some serious muscle like a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Ford Mustang GT. There's also a listing called "Chevrolet Camaro Drag Race" and a very cool combo titled "Ford F-150 Raptor Ford/Model A Hot Rod". Fans of European performance don't need to be jealous, though. The database shows a kit called "Porsche 919 Hybrid and 917K Pit-Lane." Plus for fans of the Four Rings, the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and R8 LMS Ultra are also getting their own Lego models. Fourtitude appears to have some leaked shots, if you want to see what these kits will look like. Lego has partnered with Porsche, McLaren, and Ferrari and offers Speed Champions kits for vehicles like the Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren P1, Ferrari 458 Italia GT2, and LaFerrari. The models in the series aren't as heavily detailed as the massive Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Bus sets, but they make up for that in value. The individual cars retail for a fairly affordable $14.99. The Formula One playset tops the current range at $99.99, but it comes with a truck, racecar and team figures.
7 major automakers to build open EV charging network
Wed, Jul 26 2023A new joint venture established by BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis will build a new North American electric vehicle charging network on a scale designed to compete with Tesla's industry-benchmark Supercharger network. The 30,000-plus planned new chargers will accommodate both Tesla's almost-standard North American Charging System (NACS) and existing automakers' Combined Charging System (CCS) options, effectively guaranteeing compatibility with the vast majority of current and upcoming electric models — whether they're from one of the involved automakers or not. "With the generational investments in public charging being implemented on the Federal and State level, the joint venture will leverage public and private funds to accelerate the installation of high-powered charging for customers. The new charging stations will be accessible to all battery-powered electric vehicles from any automaker using Combined Charging System (CCS) or North American Charging Standard (NACS) and are expected to meet or exceed the spirit and requirements of the U.S. National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program." Critically, the automakers involved will have a say in how the charging tech is implemented, guaranteeing that the hardware will play nicely with each automaker's in-house charging systems. Hyundai and Kia, for example, were hesitant to jump on board the Tesla NACS bandwagon earlier this year over concerns that the Supercharger network is insufficient for powering the two automakers' 800-volt charging systems; similar tech is used by Volkswagen and Porsche. In addition to providing much-needed capacity and high-output charging for America's growing fleet of electric cars and trucks, the new network will integrate seamlessly with each automaker's in-app and in-vehicle features, rather than forcing customers to use third-party tools and payment systems, as is the case with some existing public charging infrastructure. "The functions and services of the network will allow for seamless integration with participating automakersÂ’ in-vehicle and in-app experiences, including reservations, intelligent route planning and navigation, payment applications, transparent energy management and more. In addition, the network will leverage Plug & Charge technology to further enhance the customer experience," the announcement said.
