This is my 1970 chevelle builder/project car, I have come to the realization that I simply cannot build all of the cars that I have and need to let this one go to a good home.I dragged this car out of the woods in east tn last year,def saved it from a terrible fate. Now onto the car.....
This chevelle has a super solid frame, it has good bones so you have a great foundation to build on. I stripped down and por 15ed the front frame rails and engine cradle.I stripped the car to the bare metal the hard way, the only thing that wasnt stripped is the trunk lid.The roof is good and solid, the doors are solid with very, very minimal rust a spot about the size of a half dollar on both give or take and its far from rot through,the innerstructure has some rust but some cleaning and por 15 and should be fine,door glasses are in both doors and regulators work .
Both front fenders are doable but both need lower patches. Drivers quarter has been cut out but I have a goodmark skin I will let go with it. Passenger side quarter is workable.Trunk lid is in good shape,the car will need a trunk floor or a patch and it will need front floorpans. Rockers are super solid.Passenger quarter glass was broken out but I have a replacement that goes with it. Windshield was junk and busted but I have a stock replacement to go with it,it is just setting in place. I also have a good grill that will go with the car. If the body panels were all on and the car was down in sealer/primer it would really take shape.
Vin plate and cowl tag is in place, this was a factory green mist car. Vin and cowl tag info availible upon request.This was also a factory ac,it looks like the components are in the trunk(condensor,firewall box etc) but no compressor.
I do have availible but is NOT included with the car the following items
very nice front and rear bumpers,rear has an ss pad,full floorpans,tail panel,goodmark ss hood, goodmark fender extensions,355 sbc engine and turbo 350.Although some items may be pictured they do NOT go with the car. If someone would like the option to purchase these items to go with the car I will surely make you a good deal.
Driveline- There is not a engine or transmission,I do have a nice built cammed 355 sbc and a pro built 350 turbo by taylor transmissions,there is a stall convertor but I am unsure of the stall speed. The cam is one for a heavy car and the engine only has 9k miles and it very clean. This can be bought to go with the chevelle but is NOT included in the auction.The car does have a ten bolt rear end and 4 wheel drum brakes.Although the car is pictured with the engine installed, it is NOT included with the auction but can be had for additional cost. The auction is only for the body of the car,roller whatever you want to call it.
Current state of the car, I have the fenders, and doors off of the car and the shell as told earlier is in bare metal except for the trunk lid and door jamb areas, you can see what your getting and no paint or primer to hide rust or bondo. Obviously you arent driving this home ,it will need to be trailered or towed,tires are junk so bring some good ones if your arent hauling on a trailer.
Paperwork- I bought this car with a bill of sale,I currently have someone working on getting a title to the vehicle, I do not know how long the process will take but I WILL forward the proper paperwork to the new owner providing I recieve it.Otherwise I will be selling the car the same way as I bought it,with a bill of sale.Some states dont even require a title for a vehicle this old anyways.
Payment I will accept paypal or cash, if paying the full amount in paypal please add 3 percent. I will also accept a certified bank check but the car will NOT be allowed to leave the premises till the check clears my bank. I will need a 500.00 nonrefundable deposit within 24 hours of auctions end. I will require full payment in 7 days of auctions end.
The final bid is what you pay, we do not negotiate the sales price at pickup, that has already been determined at the auctions end. If you desire to negoitate at pickup I reserve the right to keep your deposit and relist the car.Your final bid is the sales price.
I will also consider all trades but please be realistic as I know 70 chevelles are the car to have,obviously you will need to bring it here when you pickup the chevelle. I have most of the main parts needed to build this car,perhaps we could work some sort of package deal. Some items of interest but certainly not limited to are motorhomes or nice travel trailer,turbo regals(84-87) 1000cc and up sportbikes(no old banana seats) may consider a NICE goldwing or similiar,no other cruisers I have a softail,pontoon boat or what do you have? If the car meets the reserve I will let the auction run its course.
I can be reached via email,text messaging or by calling me,I work alot of hours so if your unable to reach me on my cell,feel free to email or text me.
Please assume nothing and ask questions, this is a project and there is no possible way I can have a foolproof description of the car, it is nearly 44 years old. I welcome and encourage questions or simply come have a look. 615-238-4855 no calls after 10pm central standard time please.
Please also note that the car will be subject to local sale until the reserve is met,alot of my auctions end early so feel free to make an offer,otherwise the auction will run its course.Please dont not ask what the reserve is just bid what you think its worth to you, I assure you my reserve is very very reasonable.
Shipping the the responsibility of the buyer but I will work with shippers any way I can within reason. I may also be able to help with shipping or meeting you with the car closer to your home but the car and my expenses must be paid in full beforehand.Please note if you are paying with a cashiers check I will not release the car until it clears. We can talk about other forms of payment for a quicker solution if necessary.
Im sure there will be some internet trolls that have some smart ass remarks to say but dont waste your time, I wont respond to stupid comments or post your stupid comments or questions.To everyone else,thanks for looking.

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
