1972 Chevrolet Nova - Unifinished Project Car on 2040-cars
Harwich, Massachusetts, United States
|
I am selling my 1972 Nova. This nova has undergone an extensive
restoration over the last few years. I have put over 15,000 in new parts
and well over a 1000hrs of labor into this nova. Everything has been
replaced/repaired/ and upgraded. The end result was supposed to be a
high end tuxedo (black with white stripes) nova. The car originally came
from Pennsylvania. I brought to massachusetts in 2007 and have been
restoring her ever since. Sadly I just do not have the time to finish
it. Almost every piece of steel has been fully replaced or repaired. The
list includes new wheel wells, front quarters, rear quarters, trunk
lid, hood, rear cross rail, door skins, tail panel, trunk drop offs, rocker panels and
I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting. Basically all the metal is new or
completely rust free. The filler work is almost completed and it would
not take much to get her ready for paint. The floor was prepped and
coated with por15 and rubberized sound proofing.The frame was fully
removed, stripped and painted with the eastwood system. The
undercarriage was completely stripped and repainted. The rear shocks
were moved inboard to allow for bigger tires. The 12 bolt rear end was
removed straightened and tubes welded. A new eaton posi was put in. The
drive shaft is a new dennys drive shaft rated at 700hp with 1350 u
joints. The transmission is a restored 4speed saginaw. The engine is a
new 350 crate engine rated at 410hp-428torque. It is a 4 bolt main with
domed hyperuetectic pistons and a 500-510 hydraulic cam. The engine has a
march performance aluminum serpentine accessory drive system with an
edelbrock carb and aluminum radiator and electric fan. The firewall was
smoothed with new sheet metal. The front brakes were converted to disc
brakes and the rear were replaced with new drum brakes. The gas tank +
straps are new. New painless wiring harness which is wired just enough
to allow the engine to run. The steering column was replaced with a new
chrome ididit column. Has a new custom fully welded exhaust from summit.
Also have various new trim pieces. New door handles, mirrors etc. And
I'm sure there is a ton of stuff I'm forgetting.
On Jun-28-14 at 08:54:55 PDT, seller added the following information: To be clear this is an unfinished project car that does not drive (it does run though), and has no interior. |

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
