1971 Chevrolet Nova Ss on 2040-cars
Little Falls, Minnesota, United States
I am selling my 1971 Nova SS. This is one of the cleanest Nova’s you will find. The car was originally sold at Purvis-Taylor Chevrolet in Crystal Springs Mississippi on February 2nd, 1971. I have the original owner’s manual and a binder with the receipts documenting the Frame-off Restoration that was completed in 2006. There is over $40,000 invested in the Frame-off Restoration and the car has been driven less than 1,500 miles since the restoration. The car was factory ordered with air conditioning and was also factory ordered with the rare radio delete option. This car is in beautiful condition and has won multiple 1st place and Best of Show Awards. Drivetrain: The engine is not numbers matching. It is a modern crate 350 with a 4 bolt main that has been stroked
to a 383 with many upgrades. It has high volume oil
pump, steel crank, Jessell aluminum rods, Jessell high performance pistons,
Pro-line aluminum heads, Pro-line aluminum intake, Barry Grant Demon
Carburetor, MSD 6AL Ignition, new alternator, fully functional AC and Power
Steering, 150 HP shot of Nitrous (Only been used for show purposes, has never been
filled or ran through car) and a lot of chrome and polished parts. The car has not been put on a Dyno but is estimated to be
approximately 450 HP. The transmission is a Richmond 5-speed backed by a Ram Heavy Duty
clutch and Lakewood shatterproof bell housing. Shifting the gears is done by a HURST shifter. The exhaust begins with full length 3 inch Jet Coated headers that
flow into Pypes Violator mufflers. The exhaust exits in the
factory location and is 3 inch from front to back. This setup gives the car an amazing sound that you must hear in
person. The rear end is a Currie 9 inch with 3.73 gears, Posi, and heavy
duty Currie 33 spline axles. It has adjustable CAL-TRAC
traction bars that have been installed along with sub-frame ties. The brakes have been completely upgraded to 4 wheel BAER power
disc brakes that are drilled and vented. The wheels on this car are American Racing Torque Thrust II that
are wrapped in Fuzion ZRI tires. The fronts are 225/55/16
and the rears are 255/50/17. Interior: The interior is mostly original with the exception of front seat
covers and carpet. The headliner, dash pad,
door panels and rear seat are all original and in excellent condition. The front seats have been recovered and new carpet has been
installed. There are also new
Chevrolet floor mats in the front and back. All of the interior is in
excellent condition there is no rips, cracks, or stains. Everything works great including all the lights, gauges and
switches. Body: This car retains all of its original sheet metal. There is absolutely no rust anywhere on this car. This car is laser straight and all factory seams line up
excellent. The doors, hood and trunk
shut with ease just like new. The original numbers are
still stamped in the quarters. The trunk is finished with
factory speckle paint. All of the chrome, glass
and moldings are in excellent condition and have a brilliant shine to
them. The car is finished with a
PPG base coat/clear coat Marina Blue paint that looks amazing. The paint is laser straight and has amazing depth. If you are looking for a car that you can take to shows, have fun driving, and be proud to own this is the car for you. This car runs, drives, handles, and looks great. It can be driven anywhere, and was part of the Power Tour in 2010. The car is always stored in a climate controlled garage and is always covered with a custom fitted car cover (included with the car). The car is only driven on nice days and has not seen rain or bad weather since the restoration. The car is Frame-off Restored and no corners have been cut, everything was done right. Everything on this car is in beautiful condition, including the underside which is as nice as the top. The underside has been completely painted black and is in excellent condition. I have done my best describing the car as accurately and detailed as possible, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Also, if you would like any additional pictures of the car contact me and I can take them and send them to you. Payment: A $1,000 non refundable payment is due within 48 hours of auction close. The remaining balance is due within 7 days of auction close. Remaining balance must be paid by cash in person, or verified cashiers check or bank draft. Shipping: Buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup, and if the car needs to be shipped the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements. |

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee teases return with a Countach
Fri, May 29 2015Unless you have an intense aversion to Jerry Seinfeld, it's hard not to find something to like about his show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. After all, the series combines funny people telling often hilarious stories while riding in ridiculously cool vehicles. The trailer for the sixth season is now online, and based on this tease, this definitely looks worth watching no matter what part of the videos interest you. Of course, it's the automotive portion that really grabs us, and Seinfeld has quite a fleet to showcase for season six. The trailer shows off a Lamborghini Countach, a '57 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible, a classic Volkswagen Beetle in the green and white German Polizei livery, a Morgan, an Aston Martin DB5, and a Ferrari 308. On the more humorous side of things, the guest list at least includes Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jim Carrey, Steve Harvey, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher and upcoming host of The Daily Show Trevor Noah. Season six of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee premieres on Crackle on Wednesday, June 3, at 11:30 PM ET.
Honda, Chevy reveal low-drag speedway aero for Indy 500
Sun, May 3 2015As the two automakers currently participating in the IndyCar Series, both Chevy and Honda were invited this year not only to provide engines to the teams on the starting grid, but to develop their own aerodynamics packages as well. Both revealed their designs for the road-course races a few months ago, but with the Indy 500 approaching at break-neck speed, they've now unleashed their aero approaches for speedways. Both are based on the Dallara DW12 chassis introduced to the series a couple of years ago, but sacrifice some of their downforce at the altar of speed. And you can tell as much from looking at them: both Honda (above) and Chevy (below) have streamlined their designs, with single-plane front wings, lower-profile rear wings and fewer winglets on the body and around the wheels in between. The idea is to allow the cars to reach higher top speeds with less drag, while offering the necessary amount of downforce for the banked turns. With the four opening road-course rounds complete, teams using either automaker's equipment will keep the existing aero kits on their cars for the Grand Prix of Indianapolis on the infield course next week, then switch to the speedway package for the Indianapolis 500 later this month. Then it'll be back and forth for the rest of the season as the circus switches between road courses and speedways. Honda Unveils 2015 IndyCar Super Speedway Aero Kit Apr 30, 2015 - SPEEDWAY, Indiana - To be used at the Indianapolis 500 - Manufacturer seeking 11th Indianapolis 500 victory since 2004 - First public running to take place Sunday at Indianapolis Honda today debuted the "Super Speedway" aero kit of aerodynamic upgrades and components its teams will use at this year's 99th running of the Indianapolis 500. The Honda Super Speedway Aero Kit, produced by Honda Performance Development, Honda's racing arm in North America, includes a variety of individual aerodynamic components fitted to the existing Honda-powered Dallara Indy car chassis. All are intended to give Honda's six Indy car teams – encompassing a potential 17 '500' entrants - the ability to maximize performance at the 2.5-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval and other large ovals ( over one mile in length) on the 2015 Verizon IndyCar Series schedule. "We're excited to unveil our Super Speedway aero kit, the newest element in this era of enhanced manufacturer competition in the Verizon IndyCar Series," said Art St. Cyr, president of HPD.
