Very Rare! 1969 Super Sport 396 4 Speed Chevelle Convertible! A Very Solid Car Which Still Retains Its Factory Paint & Super Sport Stripes! Backed By A CE Warranty Replacement Motor And Its Original Numbers Matching Four Speed! Original Tach Car! I Can Assure You That You WILL NOT Find Another One Like It!

     The moment I sat eyes on this Chevelle, my heart started racing. My more rational and practical side kept trying to over ride my emotions but the more I dove in to this Chevelle, the more I got excited about it. I think any car guys can relate to what I am talking about. We hunt and we hunt to find cars like these and most of the time, it seems like we are just chasing ghosts. Fortunately, this is not one of those scenarios.

     This Chevelle has belonged to to a fanatical Chevelle collector for quite some time. Someone who never sells and has kept his metal secrets locked away from the World for decades. Years ago, this Chevelle was driven across Missouri and parked where it has been sitting for quite some time. This Chevelle has not had many hands on it over the years. It still retains its original factory paint with its original factory Super Sport stripes! The entire infrastructure, the bones of this car are unmolested. It still retains all of its original sheet metal (with the exception of the core support and new fenders) most of which is completely solid. Every original bracket is still in tact and untouched. The original floors and trunk to the Chevelle are completely solid and original. This Chevelle still has its original convertible top which has no tears in it! The interior is 100% original and is in excellent shape. The front bucket seats do not have a stain nor tear in them. The tach and instrument panel is completely original and has never been tampered with. There is just so much to break down on this car so I will do my best to give you a detailed description of what this Chevelle entails. If this is your dream car, you're going to thoroughly enjoy this read.

Body: The body on this Chevelle is completely original. We have installed new fenders along with a core support that has been powder coated. We also installed new core support bushings. Starting with the floors, they are completely original and totally solid. There are no pin size holes nor weak spots through out any of the front nor rear floors. The trunk pan is exactly the same. It too has no pin size holes nor weak spots. It is also completely solid. The frame on the Chevelle is also completely solid as are the doors, cowl, cowl corners, firewall, rear sill, deck lid, hood, inner wheel housing, A pillars, and windshield support. What does need replaced are the quarters and outer wheel housing. Which I do have one new quarter as well as one outer wheel housing which I am including with the Chevelle. One thing I would like to mention is how nice the doors open and shut as well as how well the windows roll up and down which you will be able to see within the video located below. As you can see within the photos located below, the Chevelle still retains its original factory paint and SS stripes. The convertible top on this Chevelle is missing its back window but the remaining top is completely sound. It does need cleaned but it does not have any tears or dry spots wearing through. The Chevelle also still retains its original factory disc brakes, big block suspension, and the big block specific steering column. Along the rear tail panel, you will find the factory punch holes for the original SS 396 emblem which unfortunately did not come with the Chevelle.

Interior: The interior of this Chevelle extremely nice. It is like looking at something that has been captured inside of a time capsule. The front bucket seats are exceptionally nice with no rips, tears, nor any other major blemishes. The back seat is also extremely nice but has one small crack in it. The rear door panels and center console are also very nice. The front door panels are decent but they do have a couple of small blemishes. The instrument panel and dash are exceptionally nice. It will need a new dash pad but the rest of the dash is just unbelievably nice. The gauges still look like new. The needles are all in tact and do not look faded nor aged.

Mechanical: The 396 within this Chevelle is a "CE" block which is a warranty replacement setup. It does turn over and is not locked up. From what I was told, the Chevelle did run and drive to where it was parked, years ago. The Muncie four speed is the original numbers matching transmission. The production sequence is stamped in to it and does match the VIN. It does seem functional as it does move in and out of gears. The Chevelle does have a power top and it was functional at the time it was parked. It too does not appear to have ever been tampered with.

     Located below, you will find over 150 photos as well as video of the Chevelle. My goal is to get the Chevelle sold. So if you're interested, please call or email and I will gladly answer any questions or concerns. Please understand that this auction can and probably will come down before the auction ends as I do have it for sale locally. So please, do not be surprised if I have taken it down the next time you refer back to the auction. I know that many people do not approve of that process but I am here to get the Chevelle sold. So with that, I have no problems with sharing my reserve with serious buyers. I do have a clean Missouri title for this Chevelle. Have an excellent day!

Thanks,

Shawn

Next Chevy Silverado could get this built-in tailgate step

Thu, Feb 2 2017

General Motors just received patent approval for a tailgate step in a pickup bed. And given the timing, don't be surprised if you see this on the upcoming 2019 Silverado pickup (not the mention its GMC Sierra twin), expected to arrive in late 2018. According to the patent, granted in December of last year, the whole mechanism is housed in the tailgate assemble. The magic happens when a portion of the top half of the tailgate swings down and a step folds out. There's also a handle that locks into position to help climb up into the bed. As trucks get bigger and taller over the years, it gets harder and harder to access the cargo bed. Ford's solution with the 2009 F-150 was a step that slides out from the end of the tailgate. Back then, Chevy made an ill-advised ad highlighting the feature for Ford. And while Howie Long mocked the F-150's "man step" Ford saw almost a third of its trucks with the option in the first year. The GM design seems to improve on Ford's idea as it appears to be wider and has a back to the lower step. That is, you don't have to worry about stepping through the ladder-rung design as on the F-150. Ford's tailgate step later spread to the F Super Duty, and other cargo access assists have proliferated through the truck world. On the most recent redesign, the Chevrolet Silverado took a trick from the Avalanche and added cutouts to the corners of the rear bumper that act as a foothold. Ford also offers a deployable side step, Chevrolet has running boards that scoot rearward with a kick of the boot, and Ram offers fixed wheel-to-wheel side rails. Nissan is in on the game too, with an optional folding step that tucks under the rear bumper. We don't expect Chevrolet to comment on when or if we'll see this feature in the showrooms. But given that engineers are already hard at work on the next Silverado and the timing of this patent lines right up with the new truck's development cycle, we'll be disappointed if this patent stays in the file cabinet.

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
