I've decided to part with my '69 Nova I've been working on. I found this car as a legit barn find in northern California about an hour from my home. I knew as soon as I saw it, it was a perfect candidate for a build. It hasn't been on the road since 1983/84 and was very solid. It's a roller so no engine or trans. The car comes with almost a full set of trim and all of the glass except for the windshield. The window regulators are in excellent shape and fully functional. The glass is not cracked or delaminated. No front seat, but the rear bench is intact. The dash cluster is dirty but complete and has the controls for the heat/vents. The doors are extremely solid and have zero delfection in the hinges whatsoever. Other than shopping cart dents and door dings, the body is in original shape and currently in dark gray sealer after have been stripped with 120 grit. There is zero evidence or any noteworthy collision as the doors, hood, and trunk all retain crisp, original gaps. They all open and close perfectly. The hood gaps and latch are perfect. While there are many simple dents, the car will not require and further panel replacement and most importantly has NEVER had any bodywork or filler applied to it. What you see is exactly what is there. I have completed the following metal work:
New Goodmark full floor pans
New Goodmark rear tail lamp panel (original was cut for custom lamps-yeah)
New Goodmark right, lower quarter panel patch
New Goodmark upper dash panel at cowl
Left quarter patched over wheel arch (had two small bubbles)
-rt front inner fenderwell has typical battery damage. Needs replaced.
INCLUDED- is a CPP front discbrake kit which includes forged dropped spindles, calipers and bracets, dust shields, power booster, and master cylinder. The kit is used with approx 100 miles on it. It is vey clean, boxed and ready to install.
All panels have been etched primed at the seams and seam sealed with Kent 6000 products. The car is now completely rust free other than a small spot on the front edge of the hood and the rt fenderwell (batter acid damage). I had planned on a Goodmark hood to replace it. The trunk floor has some minimal discoloration and some very minor pitting, but does not justify a pan replacement. The roof had some small spots where corrosion had begun, but will not require anything more than metal to metal to make prefect. The car is originally a V8/auto/10 bolt car. The 8.2 10 bolt is still there as well as the multi leafs. A clear CA title is in hand and all fees are paid. The subframe in the car is in perfect shape. It doesn't have any scars from being towed or damaged. I don't think it's ever left the body. The car steers and rolls on 4 good rollers. It's the perfect builder to take from here. The dirty work is done. It's ready for body and paint! This is one of the best 68-72 Novas anywhere for a launch pad to build a pro touring, drag, copo, yenko, or SS L-78 car. I take the collector car hobby very seriously and only deal in what I feel are the best original cars I can get. I also take ebay seriously so please only bid as if you intend to buy. Thank you for looking and happy bidding. Please feel free to call me for any questions you ay have. 96-300-09 nine nine. Dave

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain
Sat, Aug 9 2014Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
