Up for bid is an awesome classic 1968 Chevy Nova drag car. I recently bought this car at an auction, but I have decided I need a truck more and must sell the Nova.

Here is everything I know about the car:

Exterior:

It has a fiberglass hood, trunk lid, fiberglass front and rear bumpers. Both bumpers have some cracks as pictured below. The hood and trunk are pinned on. The hood is chipped in one corner. The paint is decent and looks nice. The body is in good condition. There is a little filler in the rear quarters and one small spot of rust bubbling through on the passenger's door (I tried to take a picture of the rust bubble but I do not know if it is visible). There is a dent on the roof by the back window (looks like something fell on it). The floor and trunk pans are good and don't have any holes or rust.

Interior:

The interior is set up for racing. It has one plastic racing seat, a B&M pro stick shifter, Autometer Pro-comp Silver Oil, Water, and Fuel gauges, Autometer Sport-Comp Silver Tachometer, no carpet. It is tubbed and has a roll cage. The door insides (door panels) are sheet metal with metal door handles made into them. It has toggle switches for fuel, water pump. It has a QuickCar Ignition Control Panel with push button start.

Drivetrain:

It has a very healthy sounding 454 tall deck big block chevy with a Weiand intake, headers, electric water pump, and electric fuel pump. A turbo 400 transmission, 4:56 gears, and a narrowed 9" rear. I do not know the internals on the engine because I bought it through an auction and the info was not available to me. It has a fuel cell in the trunk and two batteries. The frame has rails welded for extra support as seen in the pictures. The car runs very strong and I think it could be driven on the street if you wanted to.

Wheels/Tires:

The wheels are 15", center caps say Cragar on the front rims although I am not sure if they are Cragar wheels.

The rear wheels are Centerline.

The front tires are Nexen 165-80R15, they have great tread but have some cracking on the sidewalls.

The rear tires are Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial 315/60R15. The driver's side tire looks great, the passenger's side has some wear.

This car is for sale by owner and I have a clear Florida title for it registered in my name.

I have tried to describe the car to the best of my knowledge. I encourage you to look at the car in person or have it inspected before making a decision to purchase it. Please ask all questions before you bid and I will try my best to answer them promptly. There is a low reserve. Once the reserve is met the winning bidder will be required to send a $100 deposit through paypal within 48 hours. The remaining balance is to be paid in cash within 7 days from the end of the auction. Buyer is responsible for the pickup or shipping of the vehicle.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
