Here is the ultimate starter car for someone looking to build the 70 Chevelle they have always wanted.  The body is super solid and virtually rust free. What is visible in the pics is surface rust only, Nevada cars do not have rust issues like many other states. The car has been stripped down to bare metal so you can see exactly what you are getting.  I did the most crucial areas and what is left on the doors and front clip is a very thin coat of primer. There is no rust on the doors or front clip and the only dent, still covered by primer, is on the drivers front fender. The worst part of the car is the passenger side rearand the corner of the hood near the windshield.  It had bad body work but still no rust. It can easily be massaged back to near perfect condition by a competent bodyman.  There is no panel on this car that is even close to needing replacement.  The roof is also very solid as you can see NO PITTING of any kind or any back window rust.  Take a good look at the floor pans, they are really, really solid and tight, no boulder damage or whatever people seem to run over.  Again, the surface rust you see is just surface stuff that can be removed with a wire wheel, NO PITTING.  Antoher great thing about this car is it has not been over dissassembled.  What that means is for some reaon people love to take apart cars that have never doen it before and take apart the door guts and dash parts that do not need to come apart.  The doors and rear quarters inside have never been touched.  All of the window regulators, glass etc.. are in perfect shape and function perfectly, if you build cars you should really apprecitae this.  Same for the dash it is still intact and only the lower A/C plastic was removed but I  have all of it.  So back to the body, as you can see it has very solid panels, rockers, and everything that is usually rusty is not.  It was a vynial top car, which usually equals rust but take a really good look and double click the pics to blow them up to full size, no pitting and no rear window rust. Doors open and shut nice, all body gaps are really good, no inner fenders. ( I would like to build this car for someone so if you want it built I can help you get this as far as you would like.) The glass is in great shape only the rear window has some minor scrathces.  The front glass is new. The milage is oroginal 71K thats it.  I found the build sheet, but who cares it was a nothing car with a 350.  It would make a great big block clone or LS conversion car.  I have the seats and the rears were redone as shown and I do have the material to finish the fronts if you want it.  It has a tilt column that is nice and tight. Ignition keys but no door or trunk keys, trunk lock hole not butchered.  The rear end is a stock 12 bolt, open carrier no idea what the gears are but they probably suck.  Front disc brakes and tubular control arms, frame was cleaned and painted.  I have the A/C stuff but I would use the A/C delete cover or go aftermarket.  I just have the firewall A/C stuff.  The hood is an original GM Super Sport hood, not a repop so worth putting a few dollars into.  I have the front end wiring harness and all of it looks intact and useable.  The window trim is missing and what is there needs to be replaced.  The trunk is also very solid and just needs clean up with a wire wheel.  The wheels and tires are just good for rolling around I would not consider using them, the wheels are fine if you are into that look.  I have described the car to the best of my recollection but please do not assume anything! Ask any and all questions prior to bidding.  You are bidding to take this home or to own and have me build but not to hmmm and haaaa over it. Got it, great... Also this car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early so dont wait til the end of the auction, shoot me your best offer and a phone number and I will get back to you, if i don't, then reconsider your offer. The car is a roller with no brake pressure but it does steer. I f you need help with seting up transport I can help you there too. Clear open Nevada tilte in hand.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
