1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Ss 396 on 2040-cars
Lincoln, Nebraska, United States
|
This 1970 Big Block 396 Super Sport Chevelle only has 36,000 ACTUAL miles on it. It had previously spent its last 23 years in storage and only driven around 1,500 miles. It spent the last 9 years sitting in a shed and not being moved or started. As a result it has survived tremendously despite spending its entire life in the Northern Midwest. The undercarriage of this Muscle Car still has the Original General Motors Undercoating it received just before it left the factory (see pictures below, click here for the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoJ_fKQHnOg). This is nearly unheard of on a vehicle that is 43 years old and unrestored.
It is an unrestored 1970 Chevelle Super Sport Big Block 396 with 36,000 miles on it....where are you going to find that? This is a true Big Block Super Sport and although there is no way to decode them it has all of the tell tail signs. The rear trailing arms that attach to the 12 bolt are blocked off and strengthened, only found on a SS. The rearend is a 12 bolt, standard on the SS. The dash has the Rally Gauges, only found on a SS. The door panel trim does not go straight across but has the hump design, only found on a SS. It has a functioning Cowl Induction hood. Don't be fooled by all of the Cloned SS's out in the market today. There are signs if you know what to look for. An original 10 10 771 car (White Exterior with Saddle Interior) which is rare along with the additional Tilt Steering that was nearly unheard of in 1970. It was also built with the LS package containing both front and rear sway bars. Unlike most surviving SS's it still has its original 12 bolt rear end and Turbo 400 transmission. Center console with Horse Shoe shifter and AM Radio. This car has the In-Dash Tach and Clock. The Functional Cowl Induction hood that only came in 1970 is not only there but works perfectly.
Bringing this car back to life took very little. The Head Liner needed replaced and the center console was completely trashed. A head liner was installed and the center console was torn down and re-done. The entire car was buffed and cleaned up. The Heater Core was replaced along with all the hoses. The vehicles starter was replaced along with new plugs, wires, points, condensor and rotor. The 4 Barrel carburetor was completely reworked and a new carb kit and float kit were installed. The exhaust gaskets were replaced. New Headlights were installed along with new Hood Pins. The entire vehicle was completely cleaned up from the inside out. All of the interior was torn out of it including seats, headliner, carpet and dash were pulled and cleaned. The rally SS wheels were replaced by a set of new Boss rims, 20 X 10's on the rear and 18 X 8's on the front. Running on 245/40/18's and 275/40/20's these rims and tires give it the perfect look. Still using all of its original suspension without any alterations these wheels and tires fit perfect and allow it to be put back completely to original without any effects. I am selling the vehicle with the BOSS rims however the original Super Sport Rims and tires are availible for this car for an additional $800. I drove this car 175+ miles to the Lambrecht Chevrolet Company Auction in Pierce NE on September 28, 2013 and drove it home. With this auction I am including my bidders badge and number from the Lambrecht Auction as well as an official bill of sale from VanDerBrink Auctions on the Lambrecht Chevrolet Company Auction "A time capsule of automotive History". I was there at the Lambrecht Auction and watched their 1969 SS 396 Chevelle sell (http://blogs.hotrod.com/read-all-about-the-lambrecht-chevrolet-auction-at-hot-rod-83315.html/lambrecht-vanderbrink-chevrolet-1969-chevelle-ss396/#axzz2ilmp0Tv4). Their car had 74,000 miles on it, had a tree fall on it and blow out the windows then it sat outside for nearly 5 years, had rust all over the quarters and the trunk was gone, the motor was stuck and the roof was caved in. I watched this car that was almost beyond repair bring $27,000 (http://www.ktiv.com/story/23539928/2013/09/26/lambrecht-auto-auction-in-pierce-nebraska-is-set-to-begin). The car you are looking at runs and drives with only 36,000 actual miles on it. Compare that to their 69 with 74,000 and you need a fork lift to move it. My wife drove this car and put 300 miles on it during a poker run. There simply is no comparison between the two vehicles. Mine is in WAY better condition, is driveable, and can be enjoyed right now. The 1970 Chevelle Super Sport Big Block is one of the most desired Classic Cars ever built. Check out the valuation tool at Hagerty Insurance http://www.hagerty.com/valuationtools/HVT/VehicleSearch/Report?vc=1379529 it shows the lowest value for a SS 396 #4 car at $32,000. A #3 car is $40,000 and a #1 is $67,800. This is not a #1 and is also not a #4 car either. This is a great value!

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla sells Model S 85 and 70D in Malaysia, Chevy Spark EV built using clean energy
Mon, May 18 2015Tesla will send Model S 70D and Model S 85 EVs to Malaysia for leasing to government-linked companies. Only those companies will have access to the models as a two-year lease, which will be imported and leased by Malaysian Green Technology Corporation. The plan is part of an initiative by the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water to allow government officials and other influential people to get to know the electric vehicles and the benefits that come along with them. Most of the 120 vehicles available will be the 70D model, and the lessee companies will have the option to purchase the cars at the end of the two years. Read more from Paul Tan's Automotive News. Wanxiang is hosting students from Delaware in China as part of a program to learn Mandarin and visit schools and science and technology sites. Wanxiang, the auto parts company that acquired Fisker (which had manufacturing based in Delaware) and battery maker A123 Systems, will give the students tours of its solar technology facilities, among other places, and see what daily life is like for families in the region. The program helps students interested in science and technology to foster marketable skills — like learning a foreign language — that will help them get jobs in industries around the world.

The e-motors building of the General Motors Baltimore Operations complex has a new rooftop solar array and uses LED and CFL lighting, helping the building recently earn LEED Silver certification. The landfill-free facility also takes advantage of the 1.23-megawatt solar array on the grounds, helping it source six percent its energy from renewable sources. The plant has reduced its energy intensity by 15.5 percent in three years, and continues to work toward reducing consumption and sourcing clean energy. "We believe reducing our environmental footprint is good for the climate and good for our business," says GM Executive Director of Global Public Policy Greg Martin.
