RELISTED Again!!! 1st time Nova was sold but due to extenuating circumstances the deal did not go through. I decided to keep it. Next time buyer checked on shipping and decided it was too expensive. Unfortunately I really do not have room for it. Hate to sell as it is a blast to drive and everyone loves the car.

Wheels in pictures do NOT come with the SALE. Nova is being Sold with a set of basic steel wheels and used tires. This will allow you to put on the wheels you want. (I do have a set of ORIGINGINAL 14 x 7 Rally Wheels and Tires on another auction. If you win the car and the wheels I will put them on the car for transit to you)

1966 Chevy Nova Convertible. As most of you know The Nova was NOT available in a Convertible in 1966. This car started life as a base model 4 door sedan with a 6 cylinder and a 3 on the tree manual trans. That is it. It was made into a convertible and the rear doors were welded in. I have owned many muscle cars over the years but this car gets the looks. My kids still love it and do not want to see it go. I just have too much going on. It is mostly original paint and interior. The quarters are resprayed as the doors were welded in. It is a real cool car to cruise around in. It has so much potential to be whatever you want it to be. This body looks great as a convertible.

GREAT GAS MILIAGE!!!

NO Rally Wheels go with car. (Was receiving a lot of interest last time in selling the car without the Rally's so buyer could put on there own wheels). The car runs and drives great. Everything works except the horn (Works just not hooked up at the wheel), the speedometer needle seems to have fallen off but the odometer works, and the indicators work but the cancelation cam needs to be replaced as you have to manually cancel. There is an antenna but no stereo. It has guages in place of the stereo (Temp, Oil Pressure and Volts). The Nova runs cool and oil pressure is strong. Always starts right up. Has a new battery and voltage regulator. Trans is strong and the clutch is great. Has newer brakes. Carb was rebuilt.

Body: The body is in good overall condition. It is solid in the back and trunk. There is some rust appearing on the lower rear of the front fenders. The floor is a little spotty in places with some sheetmetal pieces covering a few holes. The nice thing is no hacking has been done to the floor at all. It has a very solid engine compartment all the way back to the cown. The inside where the front door hinges are is showing some rust. On the top below the windshield on the passanger side is showing some rust. Not around the window frame though. The body is not saging but I was going to go all the way and support it for durability. The person who made the car welded a frame conector on the drivers side. I was going to get a weld in pair of frame connectors and add a rear sway bar. This would cost a total of $200.00. The frame connectors are less than $100.00. The other side does not have one. The doors are solid with surface rust at the bottom. I have an extra set of front doors that are complete with windows and are rust free for the winning bidder to have 1st right to purchase at $100.00 for the pair. The hood and trunk are in rust free condition. The rear quarter emblems are no included (See pictures). The front LH fender could use a little work. I have an extra original that goes with the car. The front of the LH door has a little damage to the sheetmetal only. The grille is nice and the trim is in good overall shape. Bumpers have nice chrome with a few dings and 1 dent in rear LH side of Bumper.

I have done some research and some people add the tops from a earlier Nova convertible with the windshield header. I was going to lower the front windshield and make it a roadster/speedster style Nova.

Interior: The interior is mostly original. The dash is solid with no rust at all. Under the dash is solid as well. It has its original front and rear seat. The carpet has been replaced and seats recovered at some point. It has seat belts for 2 people in front. (Rear Seat Belts in pictures have been removed) Someone added a bar across the back of the rear seat. It is like an amusement park ride bar. Kids have a ball with it. The heater is not hooked up. I would assume it needs a core and that is why it was bypassed. The lights all work. Turn signals work, They do not cancel though. That is a manual process. The wiper switch operators the wipers but there are no arms or blades. There is no door glass or window cranks in the doors or rear quarter sections. As you can see in the pictures there is a strip covering where the windows would go on the front doors. They can be added. I have the fronts in the extra doors but nothing for the rears. I had not plans of putting glass in it. Too cool the way it is.

The steering wheel on the Nova has been changed out to a custom aftermarket one.

Trunk: The trunk is in excellent condition with no rust at all. There is no spare tire or jack assembly.

Underside: The subframe, front inner fenders, rear wheel wells and trunk area are solid with no rust at all. As well as the subframe rails.

Engine: Runs strong with no noises. Has a Flowmaster mufler so it sounds pretty cool. These 194 6's have a lot of torque. The heater is bypassed

Trans: Shifts great and the cluch is solid. I was going to get a hump and add a floor shifter to it.

Top: Well, There isn't one. The well area has a simulated boot on the back.

It would cost a lot of money and time to get to this point with one of these cars when you can drive this one the way it is or fix it up the way you want and drive it at the same time. These are not inexpensive cars any more to acquire.

Watch My listings as there will be 73-74 Chevy Truck Parts and more 70-71 Cuda Parts coming soon.

I am more than happy to answer any questions so please ask any questions before bidding. Also ask to bid if you have less than 10 positive feedbacks. Been burned too many times in the past. I will cancel bids with less than 10 positive feedbacks if you do not ask before bidding!

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. There are many transport companies out there. I have found that Uship is a great way to find a shipper too.

2016 Chevy Volt to make auto show debut this season

Wed, Jul 30 2014

Ever since we saw that spy shots of the 2016 Chevy Volt, we've been hungering for more information on the next-gen version of GM's green halo car. It appears we might not have long to wait, at least for an official tease. An inside source that wishes to remain anonymous told AutoblogGreen that GM will make two announcements regarding the second-gen Volt at the CAR Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI next week. The first, and most intriguing, is that that we will get our first glimpse of the new Volt at some point during the upcoming auto show season. That means either Los Angeles later this year or else Detroit, Chicago or New York in early 2015. The second bit of news is that GM will be moving production of the electric motors from Mexico to Michigan. Details and official confirmation are, of course, missing and Chevrolet declined comment to AutoblogGreen. We should know more next week.

GM raises 2023 guidance on strong sales, higher profits

Tue, Apr 25 2023

General Motors beat first-quarter profit estimates and raised its full-year earnings and cash-flow guidance after vehicle demand at the start of the year surpassed expectations. Its shares rose in premarket trading. GM made $2.21 a share in adjusted profit in the first quarter, compared to a consensus forecast of $1.72 a share. Revenue rose 11% to $39.99 billion, it said Tuesday, which was more than the $39.24 billion analysts expected. The stronger results stem from rising sales in the US, even in the face of higher interest rates and inflation. GM executives said demand was strong enough to revise 2023 guidance upward, boosting profit estimates for the year by $500 million to between $11 billion and $13 billion. “We did it with strong production and inventory discipline and consistent pricing,” GM Chief Financial Officer Paul Jacobson said on a call with journalists. “All in all, weÂ’re feeling confident about 2023.” The Detroit automaker raised per-share full-year guidance to between $6.35 and $7.35, up from $6 to $7 a share, and said free cash flow would also increase by $500 million to a range of $5.5 billion to $7.5 billion.  GMÂ’s shares pared a gain of as much as 4.4% before the start of regular trading Tuesday, rising 3.5% to $35.50 as of 6:55 a.m. in New York. The stock was up 1.9% for the year as of the close on Monday.  North American Strength The automakerÂ’s sales were particularly strong in North America, where first-quarter earnings rose before interest and taxes rose to $3.6 billion. Vehicle sales rose 18% to 707,000 in the region. Jacobson said the company originally expected to sell 15 million vehicles in the US this year, slightly less than the 15.5 million annualized rate automakers foresaw in the first quarter. North American demand was enough to offset a weak performance in China, GMÂ’s second-largest market. The automaker continues to struggle in the country, where its vehicle sales fell 25% to 462,000 vehicles in the quarter. Profits from its joint ventures in the market slumped 65% to $83 million.  The market has struggled overall in the wake of Covid-19 restrictions and foreign automakers have had to overcome a growing preference for Chinese brands by competing on price, squeezing profit margins. The situation in China probably wonÂ’t significantly improve until the second half of the year, according to Jacobson. GM remains on target to sell 150,000 electric vehicles this year, the CFO said.
