1971 Chevrolet Nova Ss on 2040-cars
Little Falls, Minnesota, United States
|
I am selling my 1971 Nova SS. This is one of the cleanest Nova’s you will find. The car was originally sold at Purvis-Taylor Chevrolet in Crystal Springs Mississippi on February 2nd, 1971. I have the original owner’s manual and a binder with the receipts documenting the Frame-off Restoration that was completed in 2006. There is over $40,000 invested in the Frame-off Restoration and the car has been driven less than 1,500 miles since the restoration. The car was factory ordered with air conditioning and was also factory ordered with the rare radio delete option. This car is in beautiful condition and has won multiple 1st place and Best of Show Awards. Drivetrain: The engine is not numbers matching. It is a modern crate 350 with a 4 bolt main that has been stroked
to a 383 with many upgrades. It has high volume oil
pump, steel crank, Jessell aluminum rods, Jessell high performance pistons,
Pro-line aluminum heads, Pro-line aluminum intake, Barry Grant Demon
Carburetor, MSD 6AL Ignition, new alternator, fully functional AC and Power
Steering, 150 HP shot of Nitrous (Only been used for show purposes, has never been
filled or ran through car) and a lot of chrome and polished parts. The car has not been put on a Dyno but is estimated to be
approximately 450 HP. The transmission is a Richmond 5-speed backed by a Ram Heavy Duty
clutch and Lakewood shatterproof bell housing. Shifting the gears is done by a HURST shifter. The exhaust begins with full length 3 inch Jet Coated headers that
flow into Pypes Violator mufflers. The exhaust exits in the
factory location and is 3 inch from front to back. This setup gives the car an amazing sound that you must hear in
person. The rear end is a Currie 9 inch with 3.73 gears, Posi, and heavy
duty Currie 33 spline axles. It has adjustable CAL-TRAC
traction bars that have been installed along with sub-frame ties. The brakes have been completely upgraded to 4 wheel BAER power
disc brakes that are drilled and vented. The wheels on this car are American Racing Torque Thrust II that
are wrapped in Fuzion ZRI tires. The fronts are 225/55/16
and the rears are 255/50/17. Interior: The interior is mostly original with the exception of front seat
covers and carpet. The headliner, dash pad,
door panels and rear seat are all original and in excellent condition. The front seats have been recovered and new carpet has been
installed. There are also new
Chevrolet floor mats in the front and back. All of the interior is in
excellent condition there is no rips, cracks, or stains. Everything works great including all the lights, gauges and
switches. Body: This car retains all of its original sheet metal. There is absolutely no rust anywhere on this car. This car is laser straight and all factory seams line up
excellent. The doors, hood and trunk
shut with ease just like new. The original numbers are
still stamped in the quarters. The trunk is finished with
factory speckle paint. All of the chrome, glass
and moldings are in excellent condition and have a brilliant shine to
them. The car is finished with a
PPG base coat/clear coat Marina Blue paint that looks amazing. The paint is laser straight and has amazing depth. If you are looking for a car that you can take to shows, have fun driving, and be proud to own this is the car for you. This car runs, drives, handles, and looks great. It can be driven anywhere, and was part of the Power Tour in 2010. The car is always stored in a climate controlled garage and is always covered with a custom fitted car cover (included with the car). The car is only driven on nice days and has not seen rain or bad weather since the restoration. The car is Frame-off Restored and no corners have been cut, everything was done right. Everything on this car is in beautiful condition, including the underside which is as nice as the top. The underside has been completely painted black and is in excellent condition. I have done my best describing the car as accurately and detailed as possible, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Also, if you would like any additional pictures of the car contact me and I can take them and send them to you. Payment: A $1,000 non refundable payment is due within 48 hours of auction close. The remaining balance is due within 7 days of auction close. Remaining balance must be paid by cash in person, or verified cashiers check or bank draft.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
