1972 Chevrolet Nova - Unifinished Project Car on 2040-cars
Harwich, Massachusetts, United States
|
I am selling my 1972 Nova. This nova has undergone an extensive
restoration over the last few years. I have put over 15,000 in new parts
and well over a 1000hrs of labor into this nova. Everything has been
replaced/repaired/ and upgraded. The end result was supposed to be a
high end tuxedo (black with white stripes) nova. The car originally came
from Pennsylvania. I brought to massachusetts in 2007 and have been
restoring her ever since. Sadly I just do not have the time to finish
it. Almost every piece of steel has been fully replaced or repaired. The
list includes new wheel wells, front quarters, rear quarters, trunk
lid, hood, rear cross rail, door skins, tail panel, trunk drop offs, rocker panels and
I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting. Basically all the metal is new or
completely rust free. The filler work is almost completed and it would
not take much to get her ready for paint. The floor was prepped and
coated with por15 and rubberized sound proofing.The frame was fully
removed, stripped and painted with the eastwood system. The
undercarriage was completely stripped and repainted. The rear shocks
were moved inboard to allow for bigger tires. The 12 bolt rear end was
removed straightened and tubes welded. A new eaton posi was put in. The
drive shaft is a new dennys drive shaft rated at 700hp with 1350 u
joints. The transmission is a restored 4speed saginaw. The engine is a
new 350 crate engine rated at 410hp-428torque. It is a 4 bolt main with
domed hyperuetectic pistons and a 500-510 hydraulic cam. The engine has a
march performance aluminum serpentine accessory drive system with an
edelbrock carb and aluminum radiator and electric fan. The firewall was
smoothed with new sheet metal. The front brakes were converted to disc
brakes and the rear were replaced with new drum brakes. The gas tank +
straps are new. New painless wiring harness which is wired just enough
to allow the engine to run. The steering column was replaced with a new
chrome ididit column. Has a new custom fully welded exhaust from summit.
Also have various new trim pieces. New door handles, mirrors etc. And
I'm sure there is a ton of stuff I'm forgetting.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
