A true blue chip investment !  My family were Cadillac, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury dealers for over 40 years so I do know quality. She is not cheap but try to find one better and more documented than this one at any price!

I have owner history back to NEW! Look at the photo of the documentation on this car please.

Actual miles are documented by copies of titles and are today 34,773



This is the "Original Vin Number Engine Block" it left the Atlanta, Ga. assembly plant with during the 3rd. week of production in November 1965 ( See Photo Please ) and it matches the Original Protect-O-Plate and Build Sheet Exactly! 

They are the original matching number engine stampings ! It is not an engine that has been 'Made to Match' like we see so many being done today.  

It is the Original Sheet Metal with not a pin head of rust anywhere. I wish you could see how straight this body is! This Chevelle Super Sport is 99% flawless! The body looks like a pond at night time it is so smooth! The Original floor pans are also flawless with no rust as they were very lightly undercoated at the selling dealer when new and that has not been removed, just cleaned! Frame is not undercoated and slick as glass! Underside of this car is almost spotless.

This car was special ordered and it is a "Factory Tuxedo Black" car ( code AA ) with Ivory Vinyl Interior ( code 798 ). Please look at the photo of the Original Trim Tag ( cowl tag ) please.

Most of the interior is "Original" and near mint! Yes this car has its "Original White Interior". I have never seen a nicer original white interior in a 48 year old car or any color original interior for that matter!

The original grille has never been out of this car!

Correct Tar-Top Battery is in place ( not just a look-a-like cover )

Firestone Red Line F70-14 Tires with Rally Wheels

Correct Spiral Shocks

I put this car on my lift and tried to get some good photos of the paint and how straight the sides are but the paint is so slick it looks like a mirror reflecting everything around the car, I tried. She is a pretty pretty old girl!!!

Inspection markings and part stickers were put back on during the restoration matching the one's that was taken off that I have in an envelope that goes with the car.

Two small gauges have been installed under the dash for safety while driving and enjoying this car. Temperature and Oil Pressure gauges are working.

One of the Best Original Restored and Highly Documented 1966 Chevelle Super Sport Coupes that you will find anywhere!! I welcome any inspections which must be done before the auction ends. This car is so much more than what these photos show! Car drives like a dream!

I reserve the right to close this auction at anytime for any reason with or without bids! Sold As Is cause its 48 years old but the condition is exactly like I say. Shipping is at the new owners expense but I can certainly help with that. I can be stored in my secure lock-up under my insurance until shipping can be arranged. I am only 5 minutes from the Mobile, Alabama Regional Airport ( MOB ) so if you fly in to inspect the car, I can pick you up and take you back!  Full payment within 3 days after the auction ends. As I said I am not hard to deal with and will help anyway I can to make this fun for both of us! All documentation and papers will be sent after funds have cleared. You just can't bring a check and pick up the car the same day, funds must clear.

International buyers are welcome.

Junkyard Gem: 1988 Chevrolet Spectrum Sport Coupe

Wed, Aug 23 2023

Before General Motors created the Geo brand for cars built or designed by its overseas partners, the Chevrolet Division put its badges on U.S.-market versions of the Toyota Corolla Sprinter, the Suzuki Cultus and the Isuzu Gemini. Those cars were known as the Nova, the Sprint and the Spectrum, and all became Geos starting with the 1989 model year. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of the last Chevy Spectrums ever sold, found in a Denver self-service yard a few months ago. Midway through 1988, the Chevrolet Spectrum abruptly became the Geo Spectrum and was assigned to the 1989 model year. This car was built in May 1988, making it one of the very last of the pre-Geo Spectrums. The Chevrolet/Geo Spectrum was available as a four-door sedan and as a three-door hatchback, from the 1985 through 1989 model years. For 1988 only, a Spectrum Sport Coupe package, featuring some trim upgrades and these rad decals, could be had on the hatchback. This car was essentially identical to its Isuzu-badged counterpart, the I-Mark. In 1988, the MSRP for the cheapest possible Chevy Spectrum hatchback (the stripped-down Spectrum Express) was $6,495, while its somewhat better-equipped I-Mark twin started at $7,439 (that's $17,128 and $19,617 in 2023 dollars). Meanwhile, the base Hyundai Excel hatchback listed at $5,295 and the Yugo GV cost a hilarious $4,199 ($13,963 and $10,941 in today's money). Power came from this 1.5-liter SOHC four-cylinder, rated at 70 horsepower. A turbocharged version with 110 horsepower was available as well. You could get an automatic transmission in the Spectrum, but this car has the base five-speed manual. This car didn't get the optional air conditioning, but at least it has the traditional Isuzu HVAC control icons featuring blow-dried hair and high-heeled dominatrix boots. Just over 170,000 miles on the odometer. Someone installed a pretty good (for the 1980s) Blaupunkt Charlotte CR148 cassette deck in the dash. This was a necessity if you wanted to enjoy full appreciation of the music of the era. The Spectrum is special! It's as slick as city rain. "I didn't spend a lot of money but with my Spectrum it looks like I did." Joe Isuzu mocked Toyota salesmen when pitching the I-Mark. As was nearly always the case during the 1980s, the JDM ads for the same car were much more fun. They should have recreated this commercial with Spectrums.

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.

GM recalling 316k vehicles due to headlamp faults

Mon, Dec 1 2014

General Motors has announced a recall covering 316,357 vehicles globally, due to the possibility of sporadic or permanent failure of the low-beam headlamps. 273,182 of these vehicles are in the United States, while the remaining affected units are in Canada, Mexico, and elsewhere. This recall includes the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse (pictured above), 2006-07 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT, 2006-07 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL, 2006-07 Buick Rainier, 2006-08 Saab 9-7X, and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender. In an email sent to Autoblog, General Motors explains that if the headlamp driver modules are not functioning correctly, "the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate." GM states that this problem does not affect things like high-beams, turn signals, marker lamps, or foglamps. As of this writing, GM states it "has not been able to confirm whether the HDMs in these vehicles caused any vehicle accidents." The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, but the recall has not yet posted to the government agency's website. Scroll down to read the full details in GM's email. General Motors is recalling 273,182 Buick LaCrosse sedans and Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Saab and Isuzu midsize SUVs in the U.S. for possible intermittent or permanent loss of low beam headlamps.

If the headlamp driver modules is not operating correctly, the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate. This condition does not affect the high-beam headlamps, marker lamps, turn signals, or fog lamps. GM has not been able to confirm whether the HDMs in these vehicles caused any vehicle accidents. The total population, including the U.S., Canada, Mexico and exports from North America is 316,357. The NHTSA was sent the Part 573 information for this recall on November 25. It has not yet posted to the NHTSA website.
