This is a fresh build, 1967 Chevy Nova Pro Street Drag Car that was being built for the strip and the street. I'm helping to sell for a friend who is presently going through a divorce. The car is located in Yucaipa, CA, covered in her garage. She really can't tell me much of the technical aspects, and I personally race Fords, but recognize quite a bit regarding this build. It has a full cage, including a funny car hoop, and appears to be excellent work. The back half is a 12 bolt Chevy differential (unsure of gear ratio), ladder bar coil-over QA1 shocks. Also has anti-roll device. The rear wing is Ed Quay, and parachute is Deist. The car is straight and rust free. Has stock windshield, but all other windows including the back window are Plexi-Glass. The car comes with wheelie bars (not pictured). Has M/T 14x32-15 on the rear, and 26x4.5-15 M/T front runners. It has rack & pinion steering with what appear to be Chevrolet front disc brakes. The rear deck lid is original metal and is mounted on original hinges. I believe the front and rear motor plates are for a Chevy small block, but she couldn't tell me with any certainty, and they aren't talking (LOL). There are quite a few extra parts that come with the car, including a Griffin aluminum radiator, B&M Ratchet Shifter, the original tail light assemblies, etc. The car is mostly done, needs wiring, ignition, sheet metal interior over the back-half, etc. The body is nice and straight and ready for the paint job of your choosing. She wants 12K for what you see, plus some things that you can't see. Or, a reasonable offer close to that number. Contact me, Dennis at 949 735-6088 if you have any questions. Will not deliver, so please arrange your own transportation company. Thanks.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
