EXTERIOR

You are bidding on a true one of a kind 1970 Chevelle Big Block 454 Pro-Touring. We started by taking the entire car down to bare metal and replaced all questionable sheet metal prior to body work. Over 400 hours was invested to achieve this finished product. The Chevelle was finished in PPG 2012 Mercedes Benz Pallidum Silver, Mercedes Charcoal Grey ,and BMW Velencia Orange Pearl for the pin striping. The car was finished using 2500 wet sand paper prior to final buff to assure a brilliant shine. You will notice this color scheme carries on to the rear bumper where a custom bumper pad was hand painted to match. Custom pin striping on the rims and badging completes the overall theme. 

 Overall I would give this car an 8 out of 10 rating on the paint and body. Its not a full blown show car but it’s definitely a high quality driver that can win at your regional car shows. All the Trim, door handles, locks, Front and Rear Glass, Rubbers, Lights etc. have been replaced with new OEM parts.

 

MECHANICS

 This car has a brand new ATK Crate Engine rated at 410hp before upgrades.(A Dyno and Full Build Sheet is Included).  A full warranty came with the Engine and I believe it may be transferable (I will check with ATK and update listing).  Since completion this car only has 600 miles on it and it sounds very aggressive. It features a quick fuel 800 CFM carb, Edelbrock Performance intake, MSD Wires, Custom Long Tube Headers, Vintage Air A/C and Heat, Chrome A/C Compressor, Chrome 1 Wire Alternator, Edelbrock High Flow Water Pump, Chrome Performance Fuel Pump, Chrome 7" Brake Booster with matching Master Cylinder, Chrome Pulleys, 3 Core Champion Aluminum Radiator with Dual Electric Fans/Stroud, New American Wire Wiring Harness for Engine, Custom 2 1/2 Exhaust with Stainless Magnaflow Mufflers, Fresh Rebuild Muncie M21 with Hurst Shifter, Custom Drive Shaft, 12 Bolt Posi Eaton Rear End with 411 gears, New 4 Wheel Disc Brakes all the way around with all new hardware, New Gas Tank, All new Hoses, Belts, Custom Radiator Cover Polished, Billet Spark Plug Holders and lots more.  I have driven this car in the heat here in Las Vegas with the Air blowing ice cold in 115 degrees without any issues. This car is mechanically sound.

SUSPENSION

Everything has been replaced on this suspension from front to back. In the front we installed New Tubular Control Arms Upper and Lower which improve handling and geometry, BMR Performance Progressive 2" Drop Springs, Ney KYB Performance Shocks, Upgrade 1 3/8 Sway Bar with Poly Urethane Bushings, New Front end Kit, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes, New Custom Drive Shaft designed specifically for car, Rear Boxed Pure Muscle Upper and Lower Control Arms, Rear BMR 2" Drop Springs, Front KYB Performance Shocks with rear Air Ride. This cars handling is superior in comparison to stock suspension. This is a great Pro-Touring/Restomod setup that eliminates body roll but still allows you to cruise on the highway without feeling every bump in the road.

INTERIOR

This Interior is truly "One Of A Kind". It features a combination of Simulated Leather, Perforated Simulated Leather and Suede. The Custom bucket seats have been designed with Grey Suede on the bosters highlighted in a single orange stitch, Perforated  inserts double stitched with beautiful French stitching on the seams. Custom Suede Headliner, Rear Deck panel, Custom Double Stitch Trunk Panels, Sound System including: Alpine Amp, Rockford Fosgate  12" Sub, Alpine Bluetooth compatible USB CD Player, Custom kick panels with 6 1/2" Alpine Type R Speakers and Chrome Compaitor.

The Dash features a custom brushed Silver Dash Panel with Pro Comp gauges, Chrome Ididit Tilt Steering Column, Billet SS Steering wheel, Custom Dash Pad with French Stitching, Custom color matched Center console, New Window Cranks and Door Handles, Carpet Etc.

 

CLOSING

I have seen a lot of cars sell at a similar price point with stock interiors, stock suspension components, and no upgrades. Over 70,000 and a ton of time and effort went into building this one off car so please bid with confidence.I can assure you  this is  a "one of a kind" 1970 Chevelle that you wont find anywhere else. It performs better than an original LS5 Big Block, It handles much better, the overall look still stays true to the heritage and spirit of the Chevelle but with a modern streamlined look and overall, the timeless design and execution speaks for itself.

I reserve the right to sell this car locally at anytime. This car is sold "As Is" so please make sure you do your homework. Feel free to come in person or have an inspection company view the car for you prior to purchase. Bid with confidence as I have been a member 10 years on ebay with a perfect 100% score. I have sold several cars through ebay and never had one complaint. Feel free to call  314 374 5909 if you have any questions. My name is Moe.

 I have explained this car to the best of my abilities. Also for serious buyers any additional pictures or info is available upon request.  1000.00 non- refundable deposit is required at the end of auction within 48 hours.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford HQ gets giant solar array, Chevy City Express gets 24 MPG city

Sat, Aug 16 2014

Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.

Chevy's low-cost pedestrian avoidance to debut on 2016 Malibu

Tue, Jul 28 2015

The mainstreaming of safety technologies that began on luxury vehicles will get a big boost from General Motors later this year. The General says it plans to offer 22 driver assistance systems across its product portfolio of 2016 models, starting with the redesigned Chevrolet Malibu - the one that we know will keep tabs on teenagers for the benefit of parents. Pedestrian avoidance will be another of its available options. Instead of kitting the sedan out with numerous and expensive radar arrays, the GM system uses the camera mounted next to the rearview mirror that is already used for the lane-keeping function. New software lets it detect pedestrians, and when it detects a potential collision with one, it can alert the driver and brake autonomously if the driver doesn't react. Eventually, engineers want to give it the ability to do the same with cyclists. Because it uses existing hardware updated with new code, GM says the application costs "a few hundred dollars." GM demonstrated the Front Pedestrian Braking preventing a crash with a dummy pedestrian at speeds up to 15 miles per hour. Automotive News reports that it will reduce the severity of impact up to 40 miles per hour, but "may not be of much use in collisions at higher speeds." That feature will also join the options list of the Cadillac CT6. The press release below has more on GM's driver tech soon on the way.

Safety engineers will develop and test these and other safety technologies for products around the world at GM's new, 52-acre Active Safety Test Area at its Milford Proving Ground near Detroit. The $14 million facility officially opened Friday. "Our comprehensive safety strategy of helping customers before, during and after a crash continues," said Jeff Boyer, vice president of GM Global Vehicle Safety.

GM expected to debut two new crossovers at Detroit Auto Show

Thu, Dec 15 2016

Next month, General Motors is expected to debut two new crossovers at the North American International Auto Show. That's according to Automotive News and The Wall Street Journal, which reports that the successors to the aging Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Terrain will finally make their debut. The two crossovers have been on sale since 2009 and 2010 respectively and are due for updates as the competition has newer models on the market. Both crossovers play in growing market segments where sales success is crucial for the respective brands. GM, and the automotive industry as a whole, has been shifting its focus towards crossovers in the last few years. The Traverse and the Terrain are some of the oldest SUVs on the market and are in dire need of an update. GMC's Acadia, the former corporate clone to the Traverse (and Buick Acadia), switched to a new platform in 2016. And the Terrain's platform-mate, the Chevrolet Equinox, was revealed a few months ago. Both the new Chevy and GMC models are expected to go on sale late in 2017 as 2018 models. Look for a follow up to the Traverse's sister, the Buick Enclave, to make an appearance soon.
