WOW.....Insanely nice car at this price! I have for sale my 1971 Chevelle 454 SS in a NO RESERVE auction. I hate to part with it but need some money to put a pool in so she must go. A few of the details about the car to start.......The VIN and Body Tag indicates she came off the line as a factory Yellow, top of the line, Chevelle Malibu Coupe with bucket seats, center console and a V8. Originally she had saddle cloth interior, but somewhere along the line someone converted it to black with paint and die. As you can see from the pictures, the car has everything on it that the SS package entails, but being as Chevy changed the way they did the SS package in 1971, there is no way to know if it came as an SS or not other than the original window sticker or build sheet, which I do not have. I will say that from working on the car everything that is there seems to be original so I would bet it was a factory SS, but can't say for sure. Also as you can see from the pictures, the Yellow paint is absolutely eye popping. It is impossible not to be noticed in this car. The paint polishes up extremely nice, but it is a driver, so there are some chips on the car and there are some areas around the hood edges where the paint is chipped off, but you have to look to find them. 


Now for the really good stuff......yes that is a 12 bolt posi rear end under the car and a brand new 700R4 automatic transmission. Also, notice that the entire underside of the car was cleaned and coated a little while back, along with the coating in the trunk. I just got back from the street machine nationals and not only was the car a crowd favorite but that overdrive tranny makes it a great car to cruise down the highway or for showing off a little on the cruise grounds. If you can make it out in the picture, I also included the revised shift indicator in the console to indicate it has overdrive. Under the hood, is a REALLY strong 454 that motivates this heavy Chevy right on down the road. Whether you like liquidating tires or dragging down the quarter mile, this motor will make it happen. It has headers, a Demon carb., and notice the brand new BeCool radiator installed to name a few parts. Car idles great and drives out really smooth, and motor is a nice mix of muscle car yet streetable. If you have ever owned a big block muscle car than you know what I am talking about, and if you have not, well you will quickly find out why we are always smiling. I would say that my starting price is probably enough to cover the cost of the drivetrain on this car so you are getting an amazing deal, check the others out for comparison.

The car has a clean Illinois title and can be viewed in person if you will contact me to make arrangements. Please serious bidders only. Please fill free to ask any questions as the car is being sold in as is condition.

2015 Chevy Impala Bi-fuel burns CNG, starts at $37,385*

Tue, May 6 2014

Currently, the only natural-gas-powered passenger car offered for sale by an OEM in the US is the Honda Civic Natural Gas. Starting this fall, that long-running CNG car will be joined by a CNG-burning 2015 Chevy Impala for both fleet and retail customers. General Motors announced today that the car will start at $37,385, plus an $825 destination charge. That comes to $38,210 before taxes and options. Those options include two trim lines, the base LS and the upper-level LT. Chevy doesn't break out the details in the press release announcing the price, but you can see the trim details for the standard gas-powered 2014 Impala here. Exact information on the 2015 models is not available just yet, but GM spokesman Chad Lyons told AutoblogGreen that the equipment that you see listed on the site for 2014 is "almost exactly the same" as what will be available for 2015. The 2015 Impala gets around 19 city mpg on CNG, but official EPA numbers are not yet available. That means the LS will come with 18-inch aluminum wheels, electric variable-assist power steering, projector-beam headlamps, and 10 air bags. The LT adds an eight-inch touch screen with MyLink, premium Cloth interior and dual-zone automatic climate controls. The cost for this upgrade is unspecified. For CNG purposes, we can ignore the numerical prefix used for the gas-powered LT trims, since that denominates the engine type, and all the CNG models use a 3.6-liter engine with hardened valves and valve seats that can better handle natural gas. The trunk capacity also drops from 18.8 cubic feet to 10 cu .ft. in order to fit in the CNG tank that holds the equivalent of 7.8 gallons of gas. That amount of CNG should move you 150 city miles, which is around 19 mpg, but official EPA numbers are not yet available. With the addition of the gasoline on board, the overall range is 500 city miles. The car burns CNG when available and switches to gas with "no interruption" either when the tank is empty or when the driver selects the gas tank. Find more details in the press release below. GM says the CNG Impala will will be available nationwide this fall. CNG is a growing fuel in the US, thanks in part to fracking. The Civic Natural Gas, which starts at $26,640, is growing towards a nationwide availability. Next year, for example, the Shell Eco-marathon Americas in Detroit will allow CNG for the first time.

Seeing the Detroit Auto Show via drone

Sun, Jan 18 2015

Seeing the Chevrolet display at the Detroit Auto Show is worth doing this year, and not just because of the new Corvette Z06, Volt and Bolt concept. In order to attract the new kids, The Bowtie has gone what the old kids used to call "buck wild" with their show stand at Cobo Hall. A Corvette Z06, Trax, and Colorado are parked along a central aisle, called Mainstreet, at the end of which is a 20-foot-tall, 73-foot long transparent screen lording over the new Volt. Elsewhere are five more 20-foot-tall screens broadcasting nine stories today's Chevrolet wants to tell about its vehicles, from performance to belief in the power of play to its 4G LTE-equipped OnStar telematics service. Then there are the social media and virtual reality safety installations, the community presentations and more. Chevrolet flew a drone through the stand to show off what it's doing, which is has replaced eye-level video as the next best thing to being there. You can check it out in the video above.

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana
