There are things that I will assume of you if you are going to bid on this classic.....
1) You have more than passing interest and knowledge of this individual car and have educated yourself in its stats, information, value, and wide availability of parts
2) You realize that this in not an "everyday driver", it is a project. And even though it does run and drive it will need to be inspected and maintenance performed before it is safe for road use.
3) You have at least basic mechanical knowledge and are aware of the time, money, and energy it takes to restore a vehicle like this.
4) I expect you to contact me if you have any questions that were not answered by the ad by either email or phone (912-660-4694)
5) Last but not least I expect you to read the entire ad, look at all the photos, and watch the videos I have posted so that you have the best possible understanding of this car's condition.

Thanks, and happy bidding!

NO RESERVE! I have this 1971 Chevy Nova Super Sport, it belonged to a lady's late husband here in Savannah Georgia and was stolen from her driveway and taken to a recycling yard. The yard put it to the side since it seemed kind of odd that someone would want to crush it, the police showed up later to recover it for her. The recycling yard ultimately purchased the car from the lady who at that point had no idea what she would do with it anyway, and then I purchased the car from the recycling yard. So when I say it is a survivor car, I mean it just barely survived. 
As a result of the interesting way I bought the car I was never able to get the keys or title, the lady had already moved from the address the recycling yard had on file. Georgia law allows you to buy, register, tag, and drive a vehicle with no title if it is a 1985 or earlier model year. Check with your state on applicable laws.

Yes it is a true SS, the body color, top color, engine code, rear end (12 bolt), trim tag, catalyst sticker, VIN number, and door sticker all match. The transmission is not the original transmission, at some point a TH200 was swapped in where it should have a TH350. The trans is not "coded" and TH350's are easy to come by so it should be easy to swap in the correct part for 100% value. I have done only the most minimal work to it so that it starts, runs, and drives, I have left everything else the way I found it aside from vacuuming it out and putting some tires on it, leaving the choice of direction with the car up to the next owner. The car is very much original besides some small details like an electronic distributor. It has not been cut or hacked, or modified, or hot-rodded. It will need restoring to bring it back to its former glory, but mechanically speaking it is running and driving well enough to be loaded on a trailer or car carrier. Some time needs to be spent on making the brakes work better, and the wiring for the headlights and front turn signals needs to be sorted. I have taken the time to take as many pictures as possible (ebay has a terrible policy that only allows for 24 photos, see the rest of the photos at the link below) and have made a couple videos that can give you the best idea of its condition.

GM reports third straight sales drop in China in 2020

Wed, Jan 6 2021

BEIJING — General Motors' vehicle sales in China fell 6.2% in 2020, as the U.S. automaker suffered a prolonged slowdown in the world's biggest auto market. GM, China's second biggest foreign automaker, delivered 2.9 million vehicles in the country last year, the company said on Wednesday, for a third straight decline in annual sales. But sales have been recovering in the second half of last year, up 12% between July and September and 14% in the final three months. GM has a Shanghai-based joint venture with SAIC Motor, in which the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicle brands are made. It also has another Liuzhou-based venture, with SAIC and Guangxi Automobile Group, in which they make no-frills minivans and have started to make higher-end cars. Sales of its Buick brand grew 4% on the year and Wuling rose 9%, the statement said. Luxury brand Cadillac's sales increased 8%. Sales of GM's more affordable Baojun brand dropped 33% last year, while sales of its mass-market Chevrolet tumbled 30%. GM's delivery of 2.9 million vehicles in China follows 3.09 million vehicles in 2019, 3.65 million vehicles in 2018, and 4.04 million in 2017, for a three-year decrease of 28%.

GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses

Thu, Apr 7 2016

May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.

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.
