1969 Chevelle SS396

4 Speed

Monaco Orange Code 72


First, I am a licensed, insured and bonded Michigan dealer.  I have owned a dealership in Michigan since 1988.  I am not a classic car dealer, but do love classic cars in general.  When I take them on trade I generally enjoy them for a while, decorate my showroom with them, and sell them…several here on eBay over the years.  I took this and two other cars in on trade last year from the same person.  With this car which he owned since 1989, I took his 1960 Impala Bubble top and his 1970 Big Block Convertible Pontiac Lemans Sport Black on Black.   I will be offering these for sale here on eBay as well over the next few weeks.

Available for sale is my 72 Color Code, Monaco/Hugger Orange 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396 with a 4 Speed.  I will try to spare you the sales pitch as this car shouldn’t need one.  What I will try to do is give you as much information as I can is a short to the point description

So, in a nutshell.

  1.  Based on information from ChevelleStuff.net, 1969 this being Monaco Orange Code 72, this is a verified 396SS Chevelle.

  2. The car still is has a NOM 1968 396 L34 350hp(more for sure now) Engine (T0418EF Stamping) with 4 Speed M21 Transmission (3925660 Casting #). 

  3. Engine runs very strong and was built to go fast.  There is evidence as you will see in the pictures the car was drag raced at some point in its life per the driveshaft loops.  Front up top you couldn’t tell.

  4. Last time car was driven was in 2004 before I took possession.  Still has 2004 Michigan plates on it.  I have driven the car in a recent local 700 car cruise night.  Run, shifts and stops as it should.

  5. The car was repainted the original color in 1997 and is the paint on the car now.  The rear quarters have been patched very well.  Pictures of trunk drops will show nice.  The inner and our rockers are original and rust free.  The doors look like they had some glass put in the lower corners .  No bubbling or popping.  Does have a couple small cracks as you can see in pictures.  There’re small but I want you to know about them.

  6. Exterior body looks beautiful and straight.  Doors shut perfectly with a nice quiet solid thump.  Body lines are nice around.  I have not buffed this car.  You see the finish after I washed it.  I can tell is was buffed and waxed a lot as there are a two faint thin paint areas from buffing this single stage paint.  I tried to get them in pictures but it won’t show in pictures.   Like I said, faint.  You could walk around the car for a week and probably not notice them but I want full disclosure and no surprises.

  7. The underside is solid but has had a couple small patches put in.  Small like two inches.   It looks like the center tunnel has been cut for transmission fitting too.  Trunk floor, rockers, frame rails are all solid.  The pictures shows the underside as I received it.  No aerosol overhaul.  What you see is what you get.  Nothing hidden.

  8. Interior is great in near new condition with exception of small crack in dash on passenger side.  Carpet, seats, door panels, head liner and package tray.  All very nice condition!

  9. Glass is original and clear.  Rear window has several scratches in it.  Operators are all in working order.

  10.  Lights and gauges work.

  11.  Trim, chrome stainless is all in very nice condition.

If I was buying this car here on Ebay, this is the information I would want.  This combined with the pictures will give you, should be everything you need to make an informed decision.  It’s a real SS396 Chevelle in Orange.  If you consider everything I have listed here, all the pictures shown, and the fact I have maintained a 100% Feedback for everything I have sold here on Ebay, you can make a safe bet your expectations will be met or exceeded when you win and take possession of your new 69 SS396. 

As you would expect, it is a car that is over 40 years old.  It’s not perfect but looks and drives great, with a pretty great pedigree.  It is sold as is, without any warranty.  You as the buyer are responsible for shipping arrangements and the cost that goes along with it.  I do have a few contacts in that arena or Uship is a good source to get a competitive shipping price.  Please have all your finances in order before you bid, at least before the auction ends as a listing does take a fair amount of time and cost to put together.  I haven’t ever run into any problems here, and really don’t want to start a trend.  Be a stand up person as I will be.  Terms of the sale include a $1000.00 deposit made via PayPal, cash and bank wire at auction end.  I am a dealer and have a credit card processing machine, so that is an option also.  The balance is expected within 7 days of auction end but sooner would be appreciated.  This is in cash or wire transfer.  In this listing I have been very upfront and honest and expect nothing but the same in return.  I appreciate your time reading my listing.     My reserve based on the selling price of some clone SS396’s, is low so there should be a new owner at the end of the auction.  My ultimate goal is to sell the car.  The car is available for sale at my dealership, so I do reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells prior to auction end.  My name is Kurt.  Enjoy the auction.  If you have questions, please feel free to give me a call directly at 231 578-2887.  If you would like to see the car, it is located at my dealership in Whitehall Michigan.  And, yes, that is my short version.  Have a good oneJ

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
