A very nice start on this 1970 Nova with SS badging ..i'm guessing its not an original SS but there's no way to tell from my research.
This nova is going to be REAL NICE once you paint it YOUR color of choice and do the body work.. I have too many cars and projects and no time or money to finish any of them.. There's a lot here to tell/read about this car in no certain order-- PLEASE read and re-read it all before bidding or calling. Thanks. I have more pics if you want them, just message me..or request any certain part of the car. There'"s a lot to tell any SERIOUS buyer about this car so I've put most of it in the description. If you can, please come look at and drive the car. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE MECHANICS OF THE CAR-- ITS 43 YRS OLD... Call me please to discuss any other details and get pictures of any part of the car. THIS IS NOT... Not a numbers matching numbers car. First the bad if you want to call it that. I had some body work done on the car a couple of years ago. They basically took off all the chrome, the side moldings and so forth as you see in the pictures and filled the molding clip holes and fixed the driver door where someone had ran into it on purpose for whatever reason sitting in front of my house. They sanded, primed the hood and painted under the hood gloss black. All that's basically needed from this point on is body work and paint. id assume it needs taken down to the metal to see what's really going on with the car. Some basic cleaning and basic interior work.. I have new INTERIOR door panels and new carpet ..it will need a few more things no doubt. I HAVE A LOT OF THE STUFF TO FINISH THE CAR. It has some body filler in it in places as can be seen on closeup inspection. Around the quarters and places, some lower portions of the car as well. Rear half skin LOWER quarter panels were put on it many years ago over top the others it appears- you can see them in the trunk --don't have pictures of things yet. The car has some rust at the bottom edge of the passenger side of the rear corner of the window at the molding area.. This has always been a problem area with these old cars. you might have to remove the glass and sand blast the whole area around the channel or similar and repair, seal, then paint.. I had to do this with my 68 Chevy ll. I have no wheels for the car at this time - it is riding on my el Camino wheeels. I'm looking for wheels and tires to transport but you can bring your own if you come to drive it home --it will drive anywhere , doesnt overheat or any problems. of course i'm sure nobody would want to drive it across the country. The car has a complete and basically new FLOWMASTER exhaust system.. As you can see in the one picture it has the 3970010 block, 4 bolt main. Also, The rear Driver door window post needs welded where it comes out of the door. I always forget that for some reason even when I'm showing it in person. Call or email to discuss anything, BUT after 3 pm most days. 614 863 4279 PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE AND I WILL GET BACK WITH YOU. most of the description is in no certain order. It has less than 20 miles on the rebuild and engine. It has a turbo 400 with shift kit in it. It seems to have a small leak which i haven't had time to see whats going on maybe the shift lever seal or its too full or the pan gasket?? The guy at the shop says it has a manual valve body, but it shifts into all gears by itself. The steering column has been rebuilt out of two columns, but it has no indicator for some reason but there is one in the box in the trunk? (will have to ask him about this next time I go over) I have a low reserve on it but it will stay for now because of just the fact I purchased the car complete and running before i had it lowered, a new engine built and >>>> and just spent over 9000 most of it labor..sigh.. on the front end rebuild/refurbishment, NOT including the price of the engine and the engine work, over $3000... then also including installing the fresh engine, the wiring, and all you see in the pictures and more- Newer Edelbrock carb auto choke,(#1406 I believe), New ceramic coated type coated headers, New power steering pump & hoses, New rotors, small parts and pieces, etc. I believe this to be close to the original street driven miles.. of course you can never know because it has not been documented. The title is clear but it has not been put into my name, first because i have never really driven it but to the shop or second had an out of state inspection yet. The car has mostly just sat in and around the home property. I can send you a picture of the title if you wish. I called the title office. They said as long as the lien holder(s) have signed off on the title it is free and clear and it can be handed to the next buyer without me putting it in my name first. The first and second lien holders, which was the loan company he(previous buyer/owner) purchased it through have signed and it has been notarized. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Although i didn't add the option for a BUY IT NOW or Make Offer, I think you can submit one to me via eBay messages or call? Everything from the firewall has been refurbished back to nearly original GM or rebuilt or replaced with new, at a cost of $9000!! yep, nine grand.. but that included two years of labor by the shop. The engine is an original late 69-early GM engine block, rebuilt with ALL NEW internal parts. original late 69 or early 70 GM block, original GM crank,(turned and so on), GM rods, GM heads(rebuilt) but the engine is NOT original to the car. It has a hydraulic Comp cam # 12-207-2/Grind # CS 255DEH-10, with a dual pattern; 421 intake, 451 exhaust. Duration @ .050 > 203 int, 212 ex. Basically the car needs no mechanical work, only body and paint work, and a little interior work and possibly some minor adjustments and tightening or such. A steel cowl hood. I think he used Sealed power pistons and rings? Not sure about what kind of bearings. But I know it was a major brand. Part of the upper firewall has been repaired because of some rust problems. It has front disc brakes and rear drum. One local guy said to put it the way he wanted it to almost new, he would put on new full rear quarter panels and possibly a driver door skin or door ..and depending on your needs and wants . The driver door had been purposely hit when sitting in front of my house!! I have no known enemies, so that was confusing to me.? There had been rear half skins put on the quarter panels and not the greatest job in my opinion-why do ppl do this?? I do not know any history about the car other than i'm sure it was used as a drag car for a time, and possibly stored inside because of the way it was when i received it back when purchased. It was blue when i purchased it with the green interior dyed black. It was originally Forest green with the custom green cloth interior(according to cowl tag)--the only green left in the car was the cloth rear bottom seat which I still have and also have a black rear bottom that goes with the car. I bought it off eBay out of Illinois in October 2006 complete and driveable but it had been turned into a drag car at one time and turned back into a street car with air shocks, traction bars and with another drive train- a newer maybe 87-93 350 with the center bolt valve covers and a twelve bolt from out of a Chevelle I was told at the time. It has a VILLAGE of SKOKIE vehicle license sticker in the windshield from 2004-05. It has frame connectors. It has been lowered by a shop about 3 years ago with new Hotchkis springs and rear lowering kit(blocks). A twelve bolt open rear end with 3:73 gears the shop told me.(they had it all apart and checked and so on) It had a new gas tank upon purchase. It had all newer steering parts and ball joints and so on upon purchase. I had it in the body shop a couple of years ago as you can see by the pictures and then it went straight to the shop across the street for the front end rebuild for about two years. Just got it back several weeks ago and its been sitting since. I have new interior door panels, carpet and a bumper jack for the car as well as other parts and pieces. The trunk is ok but has a few tiny rust through holes in it --you can use as is or replace trunk floor. This is the second listing... Thanks for looking ... call anytime and I'll get back to you. Gary 614-863-4279 Cell 614-312-650 The 72 Nova was the 1st year you can tell a true SS by the VIN # >> care of .. Novas dot net MOST IMPORTANTLY: you MAY NOT pay using just any type of non-certified non-Bank money order.

Opel's version of the Chevy Bolt will confuse people at Paris Motor Show
Fri, Aug 26 2016Two things are now official. First, Opel will reveal the Ampera-e, or the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt, at the Paris Motor Show in October. Second, General Motors has outdone itself in brand confusion, topping the Bolt/Volt ridiculousness. Opel isn't giving a single-charge range for the Ampera-e but the company is promising a "significantly longer range" than other electric vehicles. The Bolt is estimated to have a 200-mile range on the EPA scale, so whatever the Opel achieves on the European cycle will be done with the same batteries and motor as the Chevy. Opel is also looking to appeal to the auto enthusiasts with other factoids, which are basically just Bolt stats translated into metric. For instance, the Ampera-e will be able to go 0 to 50 kilometers per hour (which is 31 miles per hour to us Americans, but we're talking Europe here) in just 3.2 seconds. And for those looking to stay connected, as many as seven mobile devices can attached to the car's wireless hot spot. GM said in February that the European of the Bolt would be available across the pond next year, so the most recent bit of news isn't shocking. Still, General Motors continues to create confusion between all-electric Bolt and the extended-range plug-in Volt. It's already been reported that the Korean symbol and pronunciation of what is "B" in English is identical to the English "V," meaning that there is no difference between "Bolt" and "Volt" in that country (though there are no plans to sell the Bolt in South Korea as of yet). Now, in Europe, they're taking the name they used to use for the European of the Volt — Ampera — and merely adding an "-e" at the end of it. For those looking to be less confused, take a look at Opel's press release here.

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
GM won't really kill off the Chevy Volt and Cadillac CT6, will it?
Fri, Jul 21 2017General Motors is apparently considering killing off six slow-selling models by 2020, according to Reuters. But is that really likely? The news is mentioned in a story where UAW president Dennis Williams notes that slumping US car sales could threaten jobs at low-volume factories. Still, we're skeptical that GM is really serious about killing those cars. Reuters specifically calls out the Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Impala, Chevrolet Sonic, and the Chevrolet Volt. Most of these have been redesigned or refreshed within the past few model years. Four - the LaCrosse, Impala, CT6, and Volt - are built in the Hamtramck factory in Detroit. That plant has made only 35,000 cars this year - down 32 percent from 2016. A typical GM plant builds 200,000-300,000 vehicles a year. Of all the cars Williams listed, killing the XTS, Impala, and Sonic make the most sense. They're older and don't sell particularly well. On the other hand, axing the other three seems like an odd move. It would leave Buick and Cadillac without flagship sedans, at least until the rumored Cadillac CT8 arrives. The CT6 was a big investment for GM and backing out after just a few years would be a huge loss. It also uses GM's latest and best materials and technology, making us even more skeptical. The Volt is a hugely important car for Chevrolet, and supplementing it with a crossover makes more sense than replacing it with one. Offering one model with a range of powertrain variants like the Hyundai Ioniq and Toyota Prius might be another route GM could take. All six of these vehicles are sedans, Yes, crossover sales are booming, but there's still a huge market for cars. Backing away from these would be essentially giving up sales to competitors from around the globe. The UAW might simply be publicly pushing GM to move crossover production to Hamtramck to avoid closing the plant and laying off workers. Sales of passenger cars are down across both GM and the industry. Consolidating production in other plants and closing Hamtramck rather than having a single facility focus on sedans might make more sense from a business perspective. GM is also trying to reduce its unsold inventory, meaning current production may be slowed or halted while current cars move into customer hands. There's a lot of politics that goes into building a car. GM wants to do what makes the most sense from a business perspective, while the UAW doesn't workers to lose their jobs when a factory closes.
