1972 Chevrolet Nova 383 Stroker Turbo 400 on 2040-cars

This is my other car I'm selling to thin out the heard. It's a 1972 Chevy Nova that I've owned for 13 years and it has been a joy to drive. I'm just downsizing and not selling the car to get rid of because of problems. Car runs perfect and handles excellent. Custom bodywork and paint done by the legendary Sam Foose and rubbed out by Jake of the Overhaulin show. Paint is 6 years old and looks like it was painted yesterday. There is ZERO rust on this car anywhere. The motor is a 383 Stroker with a Turbo 400 transmission that was just serviced. Lots of power yet very streetable and sounds great. This is one of my cars that I do drive everywhere. Other features on the car are custom buckets up front with a custom rear seat to accommodate the roll bar. The roll bar has been modified to make it easier to get in and out. Interior includes sound absorbing material throughout with brand new black carpet. There is a custom console that Sam Foose also built that handles the B&M shifter with line lock button in the handle. 12 bolt posi rear with 3:90 gears. New aluminum radiator with electric fan and K&N air filter. Motor was built for Nitrous but I've never used it in the 13 years I've owned it. Power Steering with upgraded SSBC disc's up front with drums in the rear make this car stop on a dime. New wheels and tires. 225/50/17 Nexen tires on 8x17 Chrome American Racing Wheels on all four corners. Front sway bar and frame connectors help keep you on the road. Hooker Super Comp Jet Hot ceramic coated headers, front lower air deflector, radiator brace filler and a drive shaft loop round out this beauty. As a touch for the people that worked on the car, the glove box door is signed by Chip Foose with one of his free hand drawings and by his infamous dad, Sam Foose also. Look at the pictures of the roof and you can see the reflection of the trees with great detail. So if you are looking for a car to do a lot of work on, keep looking. This car is complete and needs nothing but a driver and a good home. And if you want any other pictures of the car, just ask and I'll get them to you. |

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut
Tue, Oct 21 2014The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) – Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the Year® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the Year® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
