1966 Chevelle Ss 396 2door Hardtop. Numbers Matching Drive Train California Car on 2040-cars
Bonner Springs, Kansas, United States
|
I am offering for sale my 1966 Chevelle Super Sport. This is a California built SS 396 that spent its life in California until I bought it about 8 years ago. It has been stored inside since I have owned it. The Chevelle was stored for a few years under a shed with the rear end exposed to the weather. The rear glass area rusted out along the bottom and leaked into the trunk. I replaced the trunk pan when I first bought it which I show in the pictures and there is rust at the bottom of the left front fender which is cut out and is also pictured. The lower rear quarter needs a patch panel behind the wheel and is also shown. I bought a new panel for between the rear window and trunk but was only planning on using it for the part required to fix the rusted area and the panel is included in the sale.
The motor is the original one for the car and starts and runs good. The transmission has just been resealed at all the linkage seals and the pan gasket and filter has been replaced. The front seal was fine and didn't require any attention. I never found any numbers that would confirm if the transmission is matching to the car. The A/C had been stripped off the car when I acquired it but I have collected about 85% of the parts to put it back on with. The radiator is not the correct one and leaks some too. All four of the wheels shown are the correct '66 A6 6 inch wheels and have very good tires mounted on them. I have the solid front inner fenders but haven't dug them out of storage yet so they aren't pictured. The floors and rockers and frame are rock solid and very nice. The seats were changed at some time and are not the originals but are '66 seats and correct for this car. All the tinted glass is there and in good condition. The SS hood is an original and in good condition. When I bought the car it had a flat hood with all of the SS 396 emblems removed, the holes welded up and the car was repainted. It was supposed to have been a street racer while in California is why it was changed to a Malibu appearance. The TT paint code is for Sandalwood Tan with the 712 Light Fawn simulated leather bucket seat interior with console. The car appeares to have had the gauge dash from the factory but now has the standard floor shift cluster and the knee knocker tach is gone but the original mounting holes are still there. Ask any questions before bidding and I will expect the deposit within 48 hours of the auction close and full payment within 7 days. Shipping will be at the buyers expense and the car will run for loading but is not roadworthy and will need to be trailered. |

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals
Sun, Mar 3 2024EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
