NO RESERVE!!!

RELISTED Again!!! 1st time Nova was sold but due to extenuating circumstances the deal did not go through. I decided to keep it. Next time buyer checked on shipping and decided it was too expensive. Unfortunately I really do not have room for it. Hate to sell as it is a blast to drive and everyone loves the car.

Wheels in pictures do NOT come with the SALE. Nova is being Sold with a set of basic steel wheels and used tires. This will allow you to put on the wheels you want. (I do have a set of ORIGINGINAL 14 x 7 Rally Wheels and Tires on another auction. If you win the car and the wheels I will put them on the car for transit to you)

1966 Chevy Nova Convertible. As most of you know The Nova was NOT available in a Convertible in 1966. This car started life as a base model 4 door sedan with a 6 cylinder and a 3 on the tree manual trans. That is it. It was made into a convertible and the rear doors were welded in. I have owned many muscle cars over the years but this car gets the looks. My kids still love it and do not want to see it go. I just have too much going on. It is mostly original paint and interior. The quarters are resprayed as the doors were welded in. It is a real cool car to cruise around in. It has so much potential to be whatever you want it to be. This body looks great as a convertible.

GREAT GAS MILIAGE!!!

NO Rally Wheels go with car. (Was receiving a lot of interest last time in selling the car without the Rally's so buyer could put on there own wheels). The car runs and drives great. Everything works except the horn (Works just not hooked up at the wheel), the speedometer needle seems to have fallen off but the odometer works, and the indicators work but the cancelation cam needs to be replaced as you have to manually cancel. There is an antenna but no stereo. It has guages in place of the stereo (Temp, Oil Pressure and Volts). The Nova runs cool and oil pressure is strong. Always starts right up. Has a new battery and voltage regulator. Trans is strong and the clutch is great. Has newer brakes. Carb was rebuilt.

Body: The body is in good overall condition. It is solid in the back and trunk. There is some rust appearing on the lower rear of the front fenders. The floor is a little spotty in places with some sheetmetal pieces covering a few holes. The nice thing is no hacking has been done to the floor at all. It has a very solid engine compartment all the way back to the cown. The inside where the front door hinges are is showing some rust. On the top below the windshield on the passanger side is showing some rust. Not around the window frame though. The body is not saging but I was going to go all the way and support it for durability. The person who made the car welded a frame conector on the drivers side. I was going to get a weld in pair of frame connectors and add a rear sway bar. This would cost a total of $200.00. The frame connectors are less than $100.00. The other side does not have one. The doors are solid with surface rust at the bottom. I have an extra set of front doors that are complete with windows and are rust free for the winning bidder to have 1st right to purchase at $100.00 for the pair. The hood and trunk are in rust free condition. The rear quarter emblems are no included (See pictures). The front LH fender could use a little work. I have an extra original that goes with the car. The front of the LH door has a little damage to the sheetmetal only. The grille is nice and the trim is in good overall shape. Bumpers have nice chrome with a few dings and 1 dent in rear LH side of Bumper.

I have done some research and some people add the tops from a earlier Nova convertible with the windshield header. I was going to lower the front windshield and make it a roadster/speedster style Nova.

Interior: The interior is mostly original. The dash is solid with no rust at all. Under the dash is solid as well. It has its original front and rear seat. The carpet has been replaced and seats recovered at some point. It has seat belts for 2 people in front. (Rear Seat Belts in pictures have been removed) Someone added a bar across the back of the rear seat. It is like an amusement park ride bar. Kids have a ball with it. The heater is not hooked up. I would assume it needs a core and that is why it was bypassed. The lights all work. Turn signals work, They do not cancel though. That is a manual process. The wiper switch operators the wipers but there are no arms or blades. There is no door glass or window cranks in the doors or rear quarter sections. As you can see in the pictures there is a strip covering where the windows would go on the front doors. They can be added. I have the fronts in the extra doors but nothing for the rears. I had not plans of putting glass in it. Too cool the way it is.

The steering wheel on the Nova has been changed out to a custom aftermarket one.

Trunk: The trunk is in excellent condition with no rust at all. There is no spare tire or jack assembly.

Underside: The subframe, front inner fenders, rear wheel wells and trunk area are solid with no rust at all. As well as the subframe rails.

Engine: Runs strong with no noises. Has a Flowmaster mufler so it sounds pretty cool. These 194 6's have a lot of torque. The heater is bypassed

Trans: Shifts great and the cluch is solid. I was going to get a hump and add a floor shifter to it.

Top: Well, There isn't one. The well area has a simulated boot on the back.

It would cost a lot of money and time to get to this point with one of these cars when you can drive this one the way it is or fix it up the way you want and drive it at the same time. These are not inexpensive cars any more to acquire.

Watch My listings as there will be 73-74 Chevy Truck Parts and more 70-71 Cuda Parts coming soon.

I am more than happy to answer any questions so please ask any questions before bidding. Also ask to bid if you have less than 10 positive feedbacks. Been burned too many times in the past. I will cancel bids with less than 10 positive feedbacks if you do not ask before bidding!

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. There are many transport companies out there. I have found that Uship is a great way to find a shipper too.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
