This is my 1970 chevelle builder/project car, I have come to the realization that I simply cannot build all of the cars that I have and need to  let this one go to a good home.I dragged this car out of the woods in east tn last year,def saved it from a terrible fate. Now onto the car.....


This chevelle has a super solid frame, it has good bones so you have a great foundation to build on. I stripped down and por 15ed the front frame rails and engine cradle.I stripped the car to the bare metal the hard way, the only thing that wasnt stripped is the trunk lid.The roof is good and solid, the doors are solid with very, very minimal rust a spot about the size of a half dollar on both give or take and its far from rot through,the innerstructure has some rust but some cleaning and por 15 and should be fine,door glasses are in both doors and regulators work .

Both front fenders are doable but both need lower patches. Drivers quarter has been cut out but I have a goodmark skin I will let go with it. Passenger side quarter is workable.Trunk lid is in good shape,the car will need a trunk floor or a patch and it will need front floorpans. Rockers are super solid.Passenger quarter glass was broken out but I have a replacement that goes with it. Windshield was junk and busted but I have a stock replacement to go with it,it is just setting in place. I also have a good grill that will go with the car. If the body panels were all on and the car was down in sealer/primer it would really take shape.

Vin plate and cowl tag is in place, this was a factory green mist car. Vin and cowl tag info availible upon request.This was also a factory ac,it looks like the components are in the trunk(condensor,firewall box etc) but no compressor.

I do have availible  but is NOT included with the car the following items
very nice front and rear bumpers,rear has an ss pad,full floorpans,tail panel,goodmark ss hood, goodmark fender extensions,355 sbc engine and turbo 350.Although some items may be pictured they do NOT go with the car. If someone would like the option to purchase these items to go with the car I will surely make you a good deal.

Driveline- There is not a engine or transmission,I do have a nice built cammed 355 sbc and a pro built 350 turbo  by taylor transmissions,there is a stall convertor but I am unsure of the stall speed. The cam is one for a heavy car and the engine only has 9k miles and it very clean. This can be bought to go with the chevelle but is NOT included in the auction.The car does have a ten bolt rear end and 4 wheel drum brakes.Although the car is pictured with the engine installed, it is NOT included with the auction but can be had for additional cost. The auction is only for the body of the car,roller whatever you want to call it.

Current state of the car, I have the fenders, and doors off of the car and the shell as told  earlier is in bare metal except for the trunk lid and door jamb areas, you can see what your getting and no paint or primer to hide rust or bondo. Obviously you arent driving this home ,it will need to be trailered or towed,tires are junk so bring some good ones if your arent hauling on a trailer.

Paperwork- I bought this car with a bill of sale,I currently have someone working on getting a title to the vehicle, I do not know how long the process will take but I WILL forward the proper paperwork to the new owner providing I recieve it.Otherwise I will be selling the car the same way as I bought it,with a bill of sale.Some states dont even require a title for a vehicle this old anyways.

Payment I will accept paypal or cash, if paying the full amount in paypal please add 3 percent. I will also accept a certified bank check but the car will NOT be allowed to leave the premises till the check clears my bank. I will need a 500.00 nonrefundable deposit within 24 hours of auctions end. I will require full payment in 7 days of auctions end.

The final bid is what you pay, we do not negotiate the sales price at pickup, that has already been determined at  the auctions end. If you desire to negoitate at pickup I reserve the right to keep your deposit and relist the car.Your final bid is the sales price.

I will also consider all trades but please be realistic as I know 70 chevelles are the car to have,obviously you will need to bring it here when you pickup the chevelle. I have most of the main parts needed to build this car,perhaps we could work some sort of package deal. Some items of interest but certainly not limited to are motorhomes or nice travel trailer,turbo regals(84-87) 1000cc and up sportbikes(no old banana seats) may consider a NICE goldwing or similiar,no other cruisers I have a softail,pontoon boat or what do you have? If the car meets the reserve I will let the auction run its course.

 I can be reached via email,text messaging or by calling me,I work alot of hours so if your unable to reach me on my cell,feel free to email or text me.

Please assume nothing and ask questions, this is a project and there is no possible way I can have a foolproof description of the car, it is nearly 44 years old. I welcome and encourage questions or simply come have a look. 615-238-4855 no calls after 10pm central standard time please.

Please also note that the car will be subject to local sale until the reserve is met,alot of my auctions end early so feel free to make an offer,otherwise the auction will run its course.Please dont not ask what the reserve is just bid what you think its worth to you, I assure you my reserve is very very reasonable.

Shipping the the responsibility of the buyer but I will work with shippers any way I can within reason. I may also be able to help with shipping or meeting you with the car closer to your home but the car and my expenses must be paid in full beforehand.Please note if you are paying with a cashiers check I will not release the car until it clears. We can talk about other forms of payment for a quicker solution if necessary.

 Im sure there will be some internet trolls that have some smart ass remarks to say but dont waste your time, I wont respond to stupid comments or post your stupid comments or questions.To everyone else,thanks for looking.

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015

Tue, Feb 11 2014

Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper. For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011. The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors. While the adoption of SAE J2807 will be helpful for light-duty customers, those interested in bigger trucks will still be left with differing standards. There is no sign of the new tow standards being adopted for the heavy-duty market.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models

Fri, Mar 28 2014

General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.
