I have  for sale my 1976 chevy nova. I bought in 6 years ago to  build and restore.  Its done.  had  a 6 cyl in it when I got it.   I put a  1991 chevy 350 engine in it  from a   C10 pick up truck.  It has  center bolt neads.  I had the car painted electric blue, and poly coated. Its very nice looking still.  has a few blisters coming thru. I will try to list this all. but its a lot.  I did this car as my hobby.  theres nothing,  I didn't do.  The interior is all black, New bucket seats,  hurst ratchet floor shifter, tach, 2 sets of autometer gauges,  crager chrome wheels, ceramic headers,  high rise manifold, holley street avenger card/650 cfm,  mild camshaft, endelbrock fuel pump, stainless steel fuel line front to back, brand new gas tank, new tires, the rear tires are firehawks, 12" wide.  the exhaust system is flow master with dual super 40's, side cut outs  just behind the doors, the engine is mostly chrome. block is painted, valve covers are chrome plated aluminum, very nice. distributor is a MSD, I had the heads rebuilt, new valves, lifters and rods.  I installed uner hood mirrors, custom made for the year. very eye catching at car shows. I installed  blue led lights thru out the engine compartment, it really shows nice at the shows. Brakes are new, master cyl new, installed a line lock front braking system, controlled by a switch.  The rear is brand new, from a shop in Florida, it has 331 gears, all new brake plates, cyls, parts.  It really roars to life. The body was primed, painted and clear coated.  it has 4 years on the paint, theres some blisters around some trim. Car is very fast, sound incredible.  When I start it the house shakes.  Its more dependable then a new car.  I installed a electric fan, and a new summit aluminum radiator. New water pump, chrome  pulleys, chrome alternator, billet air cleaner.  Im sure I missed some thing.  Nothing was not redone.  What a great car. I won about 10 trophys with it.  Its  a head turner, needs NOTHING.  Just put the key in it and go. Has a new radio/ cd player/ ipod. I enjoyed building it, and probably have too much money in it to get it back.  I am into other ventures and think its time to sell.  Its local here in NJ.  All the electric wiring is good, everything works.  What a flashy car. If your seeking a hot rod that is already done for you, this is it.  All I ever ran in it is Sunoco ultra and octane booster.  I raced a mustang on the high way and left him in my rear view mirror.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra introduced

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
