For Sale is a Beautiful 1963 Chevy II Nova SS No post. I have documentation from 1963 (manuals/booklets and information from the original owner. The vehicle Vin specs are white body with red interior and SS trim both side and upper of fenders. the vehicle has been stripped and media blasted and primed to protect the metal and there is No Rust or Bondo on the vehicle. the floor inside is original and trunk area with no rust at all and or the fire wall and body are also rust free. there is a few dime size holes from the blasting that are just above the rear wheel arch but I have new arches to be welded in (easy fix not an issue. there is a few minor dings and a small crease on one of the fenders but is an easy fix for any good body guy. The car also has the coveted rear wheel fender covers as well. The vehicle lines are straight as an arrow and it has all the original glass. the parts that were removed to media blast the vehicle are all there but the original front end, motor/transmission and wheels are not present. I have a new TCI front end with steering, brakes, shocks and sway bar. The TCI kit alone is 5K+ and has been powder-coated Matte Black. The TCI front end kit is also now on back order and has gone up in price since this one was purchased. I have also purchased but not installed or cut out for the rear end tub kit. there is no back fees for she is still registered til October 2014. the vehicle has 90-95K miles on the chassis. this is a very rare car for it is a true X Vin tagged SS Nova No Post. I have also had the TCI front end powder coated satin Black and I also purchase new engine bay side inner fender well kit to give it that real clean look under the hood. this vehicle is one that can easily be turned into a Barret Jackson quality Gem and others I have seen that are true SS Novas going for 40-70K and this could easily become one of those. you can restore her to her original glory or make her a true custom one of a kind of you choice IE: paint, interior, and mechanics something most people have already done to theirs.I have also purchased a new hood with 2" scoop purchased from Classic Industries in Huntington Beach, CA the leader in classic car parts. the seats are in good shape but the rear seat back has been stripped for it had rotted where it meets the rear deck lid and i was going to have the frame powder coated along with the front seats for i was going to convert the interior to black. windows, door handles and locks work when installed and for the most part the vehicle is complete. please let me know if you have any questions for I will be more than happy to answer them. Thanks, Gavin (Roverunion) (310)804-4334

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
