You are looking at one of my many cars that I will be selling on ebay. I am selling my collection of cars due to personal reasons. Within the next few weeks I will list my other 70 Nova, 73 Scamp, 49 Olds, and many more. This Nova is a 1966 Clone SS. It has a 283 engine with a 3 speed automatic. Engine was completely rebuilt with many performance parts including a B&M power charger/super charger. Engine, trans, rear work great. Rebuild job has less than 3000 miles on it. It has dual exhaust with flow master mufflers, but there are no tail pipes installed and never were. It has Cragar wheels, like new tires, 205-70-14 in the front, 245-60-14 in the rear. It does not have power steering or power disc brakes. Overall the paint looks great, however there are small chips on the paint of the right side roof behind side window, (I just noticed and did not even touch them up), on the left side same place the paint has some some light bubbles, there are small bubbles on the left rear bottom rocker panel, and slight paint wear on the deck lid. Rear shield has a few sand paper marks in it, but it is not too bad and hard to notice. Both front fender are new however every once in a while when you make a sharp turn hitting a bump, the right fender with scrape the tire. The left used to do the same but I had it adjusted. I never got around to do the left because it does not rub all the time and it does not damage the fender or tire. There are also some slight imperfections on the right side of the hood, that could probably be sanded out and buffed. The hood is fiberglass. I have attached pictures to show the areas that I am describing but these areas really don't look that bad and you must realize that this car is not a perfect show car, so these issues did not bother me, however I as always try to over-disclose everything. From a slight distance the car looks great. The inside overall is decent, however the headliner is original and is white, it also has two holes in it where I think at one time a mouse ran in and out of it. Either way it should be changed to red. Seats looks good as well as the carpet. The door panel are Ok, however they got warped from dampness where the car used to be stored. Eventually you should replace them. The left door hinge pin is starting to get loose and eventually it should be replaced. The underneath of the car over all is decent. It has a good fuel tank, trunk, shocks, frame rails, however it does have some rust areas that I just noticed on the lift, but none of the areas are in a serious place. I've attached some photos of the underneath to show the spots. At one time the floor was refinished from the inside and they did not finish the underneath surface to match. The spots that are bad (again the spots are not in a safety area) are easy fixes. I just got a price to fix the spots correctly and professionally from a auto fabrication shop and he quoted me a dollar amount not to exceed $500.00 to make it perfect. Again I am not really worried about these areas that much to fix them, but if somebody was making a show car they could easily repair the areas at a low cost. The floor panels are solid and this car is not a complete rust bucket, it just needs to be finished properly to be a show car. The area you see on the underneath of the drivers side floor was replaced on the inside of the car , however whoever replaced it did not cut out the underneath to cover it correctly. As you can see, I am attempting to list every and all details about my car so that there is no surprises. The miles on the odometer read 29840, the title reads 126,350, the car will be sold with miles exempt. This car at one time was a automatic on the column, then had a clutch and now is a automatic. As seen in the pictures the clutch pedal was never taken out, so you can take it out or leave it in, in the event you install a stick shift. This car turn heads every where it goes. It sounds great, the 283 engine screams of power and it is fast and it looks as good as any other clone ss that is out there driving by. It is certainly not perfect, but if you want a clone nova ss for a decent price, this is the one. The car could be driven home, but I would recommend towing it, especially if you are going a distance, because of the low gearing. The speedometer works, but it is not accurate. The car is being sold AS-IS. It is located in Coal Township, Pa 17866. Buyer will be responsible for shipping costs and transfer fees. A $200 deposit is required at the end of the sale. I prefer cash or paypal, but I will not release the car until the paypal money is cleared into my account. If you are the purchaser, please be prepared to pay for the car. Please do not come to pick the car up and ask me to reduce the price. I have over-described this car so that I am not hiding anything so there should not be any surprises. When you physically see the car the surprise you should see is that it looks pretty good. Most of the problem areas that I have described would have been missed by the buyer. My son has just put this car on you tube, while we were taking it for a ride. When I get the links I will list them or you can request me to email to you. Thank you and happy bidding!

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
Recharge Wrap-up: Panasonic, Tesla on Gigafactory deal?
Tue, Jul 29 2014Bentley has been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for reductions of carbon, water use and waste production in manufacturing. The Carbon Trust is an organization that helps groups such as businesses and governments reduce carbon emissions, use of energy and resources, and waste output. From 2011 to 2013, Bentley reduced CO2 emissions by 16 percent per car manufactured, curtailed water use by 35.7 percent, and saw significant waste reductions. Darran Messem of Carbon trust says, "Bentley is clearly passionate about continuing to improve its environmental performance, which is reflected by the fact the company has consistently invested in new technology." Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet is giving 12 Volts to MBAs Across America. The organization will use the range-extended electric cars in its efforts to help MBA students learn from and work with small business owners. As part of the MBAs Across America program's first year, four students drove 8,000 miles to provide entrepreneurs with free business counseling. The program has expanded, and this year, teams of MBAs will use the Volts to travel to 25 cities to offer their services. Learn more about the partnership between Chevrolet and MBAs Across America in the press release below. A professor from the University of Michigan has found fuel cycle analysis to be too flawed to be relied upon for measuring CO2 impacts of transportation fuels. Professor John DeCicco of the university's Energy Institute feels that the flaws in calculating the carbon footprint of liquid fuel production and combustion make such lifecycle analysis impractical. He suggests, instead, to focus to carbon capture. Since capturing CO2 directly from a vehicle is probably never going to happen, DiCicco believes the solution is to capture carbon from the atmosphere in sectors outside of transportation. Says DiCicco, "Research should be ramped up on options for increasing the rate at which CO2 is removed from the atmosphere and on programs to manage and utilize carbon fixed in the biosphere, which offers the best CO2 removal mechanism now at hand. Such strategies can complement measures that control the demand for liquid fuels by reducing travel activity, improving vehicle efficiency and shifting to non-carbon fuels."
