1966 Chevelle Convertible *Project*

NOT SS CAR

I am selling my 1966 Chevelle Convertible because I do not have time to do restoration. I purchased this car about 3 years ago and had shipped to Florida from Georgia where it was from. This is a Southern car. I will not sell car for less than I have invested! I am not hurting for money and do not have to sell just hate to see it sitting in corner of my garage... Please no crazy offer or time wasters.....I will not respond!

Please only bid if you are 100 percent sure you want to purchase this car. If you have questions ASK BEFORE YOU BID!

This is what I know about car:

This car is a 136 vin car but has SS hood, badges, grill, 12bolt rear so I am guessing that someone cloned this car to SS. Has a 396 but I am not sure if it is from a Chevelle or not. Will need Full Floor pans as they are rusted pretty bad. Windshield is cracked and will need replaced. Body panels in my opinion are not that bad but will need normal patch, rust, bondo repair stuff.....

The body was lifted off frame by previous owner and frame was blasted and painted. It will need a complete restoration but is not a rust bucket and is a realistic project. I have tried to include enough pictures...I have more if needed.

If you have any questions feel free to ask. car is in Sarasota, Florida and you will be responsible for pickup, loaded etc. Car is in rolling condition will need a hauler with winch...

Good Luck Bidding

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
