YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1973 NOVA "SS" HATCHBACK. THIS CAR WAS ORIGINALY PURCHASED AS A PARTS CAR FOR ANOTHER SHOW CAR THAT WE HAVE. HOWEVER, AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS CAR AND FINDING OUT ITS HISTORY I KEPT IT TO EVENTUALLY BUILD AND HAVE HIS AND HERS NOVA'S FOR MY WIFE AND I. SINCE THEN I HAVE BUILT OTHER PROJECTS AND HAVE DECIDED TO SELL THIS ONE. THIS CAR WAS AN ORIGINAL 4 SPEED CAR AND HAD BIG BLOCK MOUNTS WHEN I GOT IT. THE OWNER INFORMED ME THAT A COMPANY CALLED NIKKI CHEVROLET IN CHICAGO FITTED THE CAR WITH A 454 BIG BLOCK FRAME CONNECTORS AND A 4 SPEED TRANS. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH BUT GOT NOWHERE!!! THERE WAS A COMPANY CALLED NIKKI CHEVROLET IN CHICAGO AT THE TIME OF THE CAR AND THE GUYS STORY DID AD UP - BUT THATS ALL WE GOT. I CONTACTED A NOVA CLUB IN MICHIGAN AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE CHICAGO COMPANY DID NOT KEEP EXACT RECORDS AND A FIRE IN THE LATE 70'S DID NOT LEAVE A LOT OF RECORDS AS TO WHAT CARS GOT WHAT DONE TO THEM.. SO MAYBE IT'S A MYTH OR MAYBE FACT - WHATEVER IT IS - I GOT THE CAR!

CLEAR FLORIDA TITLE!

OK NOW THAT WE ALL GOT A HISTORY LESSON LETS GET INTO THE RIDE - THIS NOVA WAS GOING TO BE ANOTHER SHOW CAR, BUT AS I FOUND MORE AND MORE PARTS IT BECAME A STREET CAR.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
