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.

Since 2010, Chevy Volt has outsold Nissan Leaf by just two units

Tue, Mar 3 2015

The first two plug-in vehicles from major automakers in the US were the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. Ever since they went on sale to much fanfare in late 2010, we've been tracking the monthly sales with great interest (and, of course, other green vehicle sales as well). After a big initial lead by the Volt – the Volt outsold the Leaf 23,461 to 9,819 in 2012 – the Leaf has been chugging along and outsold the Volt every month since November 2013. We knew that the cumulative totals would soon tip in favor of the Leaf, but for at least one more month, the Volt is going to be able to say its the most popular plug-in vehicle in the US. Overall, for all officially reported sales of the Leaf and the Volt, things are almost exactly tied. Since the vehicles went on sale in the end of 2010 until the end of February 2015, the Volt has sold 74,592 units and the Leaf has sold ... drumroll please ... 74,590 units. For February, Leaf sales totaled 1,198 units, a 17-percent drop from the 1,425 Leafs sold last February. Brendan Jones, Nissan's director of Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure, said in a statement that, "Tough winter weather in several key markets held EV sales back in February. As we head into spring, we look forward to seeing more dealership traffic so shoppers can experience firsthand the benefits of the all-electric Nissan Leaf." Of course, it was cold in the US last February, too, but we're sure that the nasty weather did indeed play a role last month. Things were even worse for the Chevy Volt, which dropped to just 693 copies sold, down 47 percent from the 1,210 sold last year. That's just barely enough for Chevy to keep talking about its plug-in sales leadership, but we expect the message to change once the March numbers come out next month. Related Video:

Peter Max staring down $1M lawsuit over Corvette collection sale

Wed, Dec 17 2014

Pop artist Peter Max recently sold off his collection of 36 vintage Chevrolet Corvettes – one each from 1953 to 1989 ­– for an undisclosed amount. The new owners have already announced plans to restore some of them and auction the models off sometime soon. Up until then, the sports cars had been languishing in various garages around New York City for decades and were caked in dust and grime. However, Max's end of the transaction has just become more complicated, because two men are suing the artist claiming he employed them to complete the deal first. The men allege that Max hired them to broker the sale of the 36 Corvettes in exchange for a 10-percent commission, according to the New York Post. They claim to have emails and text messages proving the existence of the deal, and are taking Max to court for $1 million over the squabble. The collection of Corvettes was amassed in 1989 as part of a prize package from the television network VH1, and Max bought the cars from the winner intending on using them for an art project. He never got around to it, though, and parked the sports cars around New York, until he finally sold them over the summer.

2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas

Wed, Oct 29 2014

Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
