Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, United States
Engine:305 c.i.
Drive Type: Manual
Model: Nova
Mileage: 33,800
Trim: Rally
1976 Nova Rally SS, 305 c.i., 4 barrel Rochester carb, Borg-Warner Super T10 4 speed, 10 bolt 3.73 posi. 33,800 original miles on the body. Engine is out of a 79 Malibu. It has been freshened up with a new valve job and hardened valve seals, bottom end of motor was checked and needed nothing! Runs perfect, shifts great. Body is very solid with original floors, trunk, fenders, quarter panels, rocker panels etc. Car was stripped down to bare metal. There was some minor body work done at the front and back of the rear wheel wells because of some rust starting but it was nothing major. Rust was cut out and small patches welded in and all metal body filler was used. There are 2 small spots on the passenger door that will some attention as this was restored about 8 years ago. Paint job is not the greatest, base coat clear but showing some signs of age. Still the car is a good 10 footer but the new owner would probably want to repaint it at some point. Black stripes are decals. Drives great, no shakes or rattles, just like a car with this low mileage should. I bought it when it had only 28,000 miles on it and went over the whole car. Garage kept. When I had the car on Ebay a few months ago, i had a radical 400 small block in it, but that engine ended up having some issues so it was pulled. The new parts I put on it are brakes, radiator, waterpump, shocks, Dynomax headers, clutch setup, transmission rebuilt, hurst shifter, the 3.73 posi was built new by a professional drivetrain shop, custom bent 2 1/2" stainless exhaust with Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers. The interior is all original except the front seats. They are out of a Camaro and I recovered them. Door panels, trim, dash, headliner, kick panels, console, etc are all in great shape. The original carpet is starting to show its age in a few spots but still looks good. Heater, defrost, blower all work great. All dash lights work, along with the horn, wipers, dome light, even that damn key buzzer!! Only the backup lights don't work because I never put a switch on the tranny. Glass is good, doors open and close like they are new. All new weatherstripping. 8" ralley wheels with 215 70 15 tires with lots of tread yet. Chrome around windows are in ok shape for aluminum, some scratches but you know how that gets over the years. Bumpers are nice for the most part with only a ding here and there but still shine very good. Rear tail lights are in great shape inside and out. I'm sure i'm missing some thing but I hope I described this car enough to make the new owner comfortable with what they are getting. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I just have one too many toys right now, so i'm selling this one. If you like this generation Nova, I think you will love this one. Email any questions, just don't ask what the reserve price is please! Thanks for looking.

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.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
