On July 20, 1967, William Ferrell strolled into Allen Green Chevrolet in Burien, Washington in search of a new car. Mr. Ferrell was stationed at the nearby Fort Lewis for basic training and wanted to get a new car before he was shipped off to Vietnam. With his checks from Uncle Sam burning a hole in his pockets, he searched the lot for the perfect ride. He found what he was looking for in a brand new 1967 Bolero Red Nova Super Sport. It had matching red interior and a black vinyl top. When he popped the hood, it got even better. It had the factory installed 327 rated at 275 horsepower backed up by a 4 speed transmission. This car fit the bill perfectly and after some paperwork was signed, William was driving his new Nova back to the base. To get his new car on the base, he was required to put a bumper sticker with his permit number on it. (it is still on the rear bumper) I also have the temporary permit from the dealer. William ended up going to Vietnam and returned a year later to find his Nova just as he had left it. With his duty to Uncle Sam fullfilled, he hopped in the Nova and drove it back to his home state of South Carolina where he and the car resided together until 2010. When I bought the car, it was totally original. Unlike so many other Novas, this one was loved and not changed. It still had its complete original drivetrain down to the original carburetor, starter, distributor, alternator, shifter, etc. It showed just over 60,000 miles on the odometer and no doubt are actual miles. When I got the car, it smoked a little so I pulled the engine and replaced, rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, and had the heads professionaly gone through. I replaced the original clutch and installed period correct bias white wall tires. The body was near perfect wearing most of its original Bolero red laquer. The body had absolutely no rust and only a few dings and bruises. There is no evidence of any major damage and it still retains both of its original T 3 headlights. I replaced the original vinyl top just because it had dried out and cracked over the years. I also removed the carpet and had it professionaly cleaned. While taking the carpet out I found a build sheet showing the drivetrain and color options. (see picture) Also under the seat was a few pictures of the car and family members from the late 60,s. When the carpet was out I could see where at one time the heater core had leaked and left a very small amount of rust on the passenger side floor board. Really not significant enough to even mention. When Mr. Ferrell bought the car, it not only had the best color combination and best drivetrain combination, it also had some pretty good factory options. It came with the factory wood steering wheel, rear defroster, and front and rear bumper guards. I have lovingly preserved this car and has been in my personal collection for years now. I will be selling off a few of my cars in the next few weeks including a one owner 1964 Nova Super Sport, 283 with 4 speed and factory air conditioning and a 1964 GTO original California Black plate car that has had a frame off restoration.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.

Next-gen Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra may use carbon fiber
Thu, Dec 7 2017It's been generally accepted that the next generation of full-size GM trucks will use some sort of strong, lightweight material for the beds while retaining steel for the cab. While aluminum seems like the most obvious choice, according to Automotive News, the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra will incorporate both aluminum and carbon fiber in their beds. The publication cites sources from within GM, though it seems the introduction of this comparatively exotic material mix is still a few years off. While carbon fiber is both stronger and lighter than steel and aluminum, it takes significantly more time and money to produce, essentially relegating the material to small-volume cars. The main benefit for trucks is the resulting reduction in weight to improve fuel economy without sacrificing the tough, rugged capabilities truck buyers expect. The Ford F-150 made the switch to aluminum for the 2015 model year and it's proved highly successful. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before the competition followed suit. Automotive News says that the next-gen trucks will launch with aluminum beds and that it will take a couple of years before we'll see any carbon fiber incorporated into the design. Even then, only look for the composite material on higher-trim models, with a trickle down to lower-spec trucks possible further in the future. In 2011, GM announced it was working with Japan-based Teijin Limited on a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic. There's a good chance that material's introduction will be on trucks.
