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. Shipping: Buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup, and if the car needs to be shipped the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements. |

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
