1970 Chevrolet Nova Ss 396/375hp Gasser Since New Zl-1 Engine Copo Yenko on 2040-cars
Western Springs, Illinois, United States
1970 Nova SS original 396/375hp car converted to a Gasser in 1970 after being driven 1,000 miles. Have Protect-0-Plate, Dealer Invoice, Broadcast Sheet, Orig. Insurance card, Magazines it was featured in, Orig. Dealer Key FOB and trunk sticker, Original 1971, 1972, and 1973 Illinois Lic. Plates (1972 "427 060" plate on car now), and other documentation. In 1972 Popular HotRodding magazine featured the car and named it the "Street Pro". The engine was on the cover of their Engine Annual in 1973 (it had an iron 427 at that time). I purchased the car from the orig. owner who owned it for all but two of the 40 years before I purchased it in 2010. The car sat in heated storage for 35 years with no engine, trans, or differential and had 2,300 miles. Changes from then to now: Hood scoop and ladder bars gone (still have the bars). The car has a new professionally built 427 Zl-1 (stroked to 497 c.i.), new AutoGear M22 Rockcrusher 4 Speed, new Strange Engineering Dana 60 diff. (like it had in 1970 except a 3.73 gear instead of a 5.13 gear - yikes!), and all the basics needed after 40 years of sitting which were a NOS fuel tank (sumped as back in the day), Stainless brake and fuel lines, new fuel pump, new Wilwood front disk brakes, new master cylinder. Original paint, original interior (Dash has 3 built-in gauges. I have a NOS dash cluster if want stock), NO body mods except hole in hood (I have an original used SS louvered hood, too). Underside was painted black when brand new. Not a spec of rust, no flaws on paint except what is original from 1970, one small ding on body. Near flawless every where. The engine runs on pump gas and was Dyno Tuned to the max! Idles at 900 rpm, runs like a mild engine until throttled. Chassis Dyno sheet shows 625hp at the back tires (which equates to 750hp at the crank). High-end parts every where: Callies "2000 hp" stroker crank, Oliver Billet Steel rods, JE 11 to1 Gas Ported pistons, full CNC Dart heads, GM ZL-1 block, Milodon oil pan, Custom designed roller cam, enlarged Jesel roller lifters, Jesel shaft-mount roller rocker arms (not the cheap $1,000 base ones either), aluminum flywheel and dual disk clutch (can push down with your fingers), Rockcrusher has all upgrade options, original 1970 Hurst shifter, Chromemoly yoke, 4" alum. driveshaft, Detroit TruTrac upgraded posi, 35 spline axles, 4" Electronic Dumps, 3" Stainless Steel handmade exhaust by The Roadster Shop. The Roadster Shop did the fuel system, brake system and Dyno work. The car highway drives with one finger on the steering wheel. It is quiet inside the car, no rattles or annoying noises - just like new because it is. Whan the dumps are opened with the touch of a switch the horsepower shakes the whole car and it's like a different vehicle - lots of fun! You are welcome to inspect the car. It is on a lift so you can see everything clearly. Thanks for your interest. Questions for interested bidders, call Joel 847 363-1874. |

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.
2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
