1962 Chevrolet II 400 Nova Convertible -Modified:

In 1962 all Nova’s were delivered with either a 4 or 6 cylinder engine. Starting in 1964 the V8 option was available with a 283. There were 23,741 convertibles manufactured in 1962 and we believe they were all made at the Willow Run, Michigan plant. This car was the second to the last convertible made with a VIN SN of 23740 according to Krause Publications-American Cars 1946 –1975. The restoration objective was to achieve a performance vehicle to a later year SS class.

Recent appraisal reported a $46,500 value. We will email a copy on request. Appraiser rated the car a 10 in all rating categories including body, frame, drive train, interior and exterior quality/condition. Appraiser quote “..stunning, straight as arrow…pristine overall condition..”

During the period from about 1995 and 2010 the car had a frame off restoration and upgraded drive train including a rebuilt 305 V8 with appropriate transmission (Powerglide), 10 Bolt rear axle, Edelbrock carb & front wheel disc brakes. Engine rebuild specifications are not available. Attractive red vinyl seats and interior trim were installed. Original dashboard was retained without modification. It was purchased by the current owner in 2010 who has now completed the restoration including:

- Power steering

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes

Tue, 28 Aug 2012

Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
