1970 Chevelle Ss 396- 2 Build Sheets!! - F-41 Suspension - New Paint on 2040-cars

US $27,500.00
Year:1970 Mileage:66500
Location:

Stillwater, Minnesota, United States

Stillwater, Minnesota, United States

Up for bid is a real SS 1970 Chevelle from Washington State with 402/ 350 HP, TH 400, Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, 12 bolt 3:31 Posi, and F-41 Hi Perf Suspension. If you like some originality, this has it. It is showing  66,500 miles and based on the wear of the original interior; it just may be original. The carpet and package tray are the only items that were changed to black, because I was going to switch the interior to black. Seats and door panels are very good for being 44 years old, but the dash and pad show their age. Aftermarket stereo and gauges work well.

ENGINE--It's a 402 1972 CE which is a warrantied counter exchange from GM.  It has an aluminum intake, holley 750, hooker headers, flowmaster mufflers, good oil pressure and never gets hot. Turbo 400 feels like it has a mild shift kit, firm but does not bang.

BODY-- Car was stripped to bare metal and has PPG base/clear correct #48 code forest green paint. Floors, trunk, rockers, and frame are totally rust free and solid.  The hood, deck lid, and doors have flat pinch welds with no sign of rust.  One area that had rust was behind and around the rear wheels and drop downs.  They were repaired with the idea that a full resto would be done down the road. The way we use these cars - the repair will last for 20 years. This car is VERY straight and the gaps are far better than most Chevelles. Window stainless was sent out to polish when glass was removed, and the windshield is new. Underside of hood is chassis black with clear, and hood hinges are plated gold zinc. It also has new wheel well mouldings, SS emblems, all 4 marker lights, and park/blinker assemblies. Trunk has fresh spatter paint with clear coat and was solid with no repairs needed!   

MECHANICAL-- This car sat for years before I got it and many things were done to make this a reliable driver such as:  new specialty 15" SS wheels 8" rear and 7" front with new BFG tires, alignment, gas tank, 3 line fuel pump, brakes, pinion and axles seals, alternator, and new AC Delco battery, etc. This car could now be driven anywhere in the country.

I have tried to give as much info as I can, however, if you have specific questions or concerns PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFOREHAND!  If you want to talk, ask for my phone # and I'll tell you everything. I can help with shipping on this end if needed. A $250 down payment is required within 3 days to show you are serious and we can work out the pickup time. Thank you.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
