1970 Chevrolet Nova Base Coupe 2-door 7.4l Th400 Project on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:73711

Benton, Kentucky, United States

I have a 1970 Chevrolet Nova project for sale.  I have the rebuild paperwork for the title, but haven't submitted it yet and am still in contact with the previous owner if more paperwork is needed to be signed to finish the Rebuilt Title process.  With that out of the way, I have a good condition 1970 Nova for sale.  Was originally a 307 with an Auto Column shift transmission.  Someone has installed a manual trans pedal assembly and cut a hole in the floor pan for a manual transmission.  I have a Th400 transmission with a TCI 2200 stall converter for it (used), and an almost complete 454 engine.  No transmission crossmember or proper driveshaft for that transmission.  I have a driveshaft that I will let go with it but am not sure it will work with trans and rear end.  I am not sure about what rear end it has, as I have not been able to find any identification on it.  It has drums all around on it.  

It has two factory rally's in the back and two newer rally's in the front.  I have a set of 15x7 wheels and tires that go with the car as well.  As well as a B&M floor shifter with a TH350 cable, no TH400 cable to go with.  No original seats for the car.  I have to high back bucket seats that go with it.  I believe they came out of a 1973 Grand Prix or similar GM car.

The 454 engine has been disassembled and was just about to get rebuilt, but have too many projects going right now.  I have the block (standard bore), crankshaft (standard rods and mains), stock pistons and rods, a set of good heads, factory 4 barrel manifold, factory rear dump exhaust manifolds, and a factory cam in the block.  The bores and bearing journals are in great shape and would be ready to put back together if someone bought a rebuild kit for it.  

The front and rear subframes are in good shape and not rusted out.  It will need a left rear quarter or fix the panel that is there.  I have two good doors that go with the car.  They just need to be changed out.  There is body rust on the car, but it is a very solid builder and should be treated as such.  

Previous owner attempted sanding on the car years ago and created nothing but surface rust where he didn't prime back up.  All the windows are there and in good shape.  One of the other doors has good glass in it as well.  Will need drivers side floor pan and passenger side front floor pan.  Trunk is solid.  Dash is in good shape, pad is cracked.  Engine wiring harness is still intact and so is all other wiring.

454 Engine Block - 14015445.  2 Bolt Main
454 Heads -  6272292 Oval Port Heads

I will post all the pics I am allowed and will get the cowl tag posted on here as well.  If you have any questions or would like to come look at the car, send me your number to seanmmacgregor@aol.com and I will contact you.  I can also text or email any desired photos to you.  I want everyone to be completely informed on what I am selling so there are no surprises when you show up. 

Thank you and good luck.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
