My wife and I originally bought this car from Alabama in hopes of making it a back-halfed car.  Unfortunately when we received the car, we decided that it was much too clean of a car to chop up!

So instead we pulled it apart, had new full quarters put on because some idiot cut the wheel lip off.  The motor was removed to allow us to soda blast the motor compartment.

Inside both doors and jams, also around the windows / front and back were soda blasted to bare metal.  There was absolutely no rust anywhere to be found in those areas.

The floor boards, the trunk pan, the undercarriage of the car are almost perfect! 

The doors open and close perfect and they have new felt and weather stripping.  Trunk opens and closes perfect, also has new un-installed weather stripping.  It was left off so you can see how clean and rust free that area is.

The interior of the car, along with the carpet and headliner are in very good shape.  You will need to get a new dash pad, as this one has cracks. 

The motor is Small Block Chevy, we were told that this is the original motor, we obviously have no clue if that's true or not.  We don't know if anything was done to the motor, as this is exactly the way we bought it.  However it starts right up, has great throttle response and sounds a little beefy but probably stock.  The Nova also has power steering.

Ok, now for the unfortunate details we need to list.

The lights have a mind of their own!  Everything worked, turn signals, lights, brake lights, when we got the car.  However, since the car has been sitting for about 8 months after putting it all back together, now only some of the things work, of course when they want to!  I assume it's just a ground wire somewhere.  Like I mentioned before you will need a dash pad and dash light bulbs.

The tires are just rollers, they hold air, but are junk.  The rims are in ok condition only.  They look better in the pictures, then they look in person.

The car can probably use a new back bumper.

The rear end I believe has a spool in it which means that every time you turn the car it makes a chirping noise from the tires.  Because both tires are turning simultaneously.  Obviously when you are going straight it is perfectly fine.  Some people like having it, some people don't. 

With all that being said, I am sure there may be a couple small things that might have to be fixed that we did not mention, but I think we listed everything.

Once again, you are looking at a very nice, very clean 1970 Nova. 

Fresh Satin Black paint with a good running motor.  The car has great looking interior and it is very structurally sound.  However, this is not a perfect car, so expect some imperfections, along with things that may need to fixed or changed to your liking.

The car is being sold with a notarized bill of sale from Alabama, because Alabama does not give you a title when you purchase a car made before 1975.  I can assure you, that you will not have any problems.  That is just the way some states operate.

We are selling the Nova with a very low reserve, we think you will be extremely happy with the car, especially for what we are asking for it.

This car is being sold locally and we reserve the right to end this auction at anytime.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will be more than happy to discuss any details with you.

Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers

Sun, Oct 8 2017

Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?
