1970 396 SS Chevelle

 

You are viewing a very original 70 Chevelle SS 396/350 horse car with build sheet.  The car has 105K original miles.  The gauge cluster was changed out with a factory tach cluster so the mileage on odometer on the installed cluster is wrong.  The original cluster goes with the car and shows the miles when removed.  The car is a west coast car and was bought in Arizona 4 years ago.  It has primarily been restored, but left with much of its originality.   

 

Please read on for more particulars of the car:

 

What has been done by the current owner:

Complete brake job all around including master cylinder, new power steering box, new radiator hoses, tune up, new exhaust with 40 series Flow Masters including headers and shocks.

 

Body/Paint:  The body is in very good condition with rear fender lips patched.  Front inner fenders are steel from the factory.  The paint is the original color base/clear and is in really nice condition with the exception of some contamination under the paint in a couple areas.  The car was painted 8 years ago.  Right quarter behind door and left front fender (pics available).  Original to the car Cowl Induction hood.         

 

Interior:  The interior is black, but was originally tan.  The interior is overall in very good to excellent condition.  Carpet, sail panels, headliner, seat covers, door panels and package tray were replaced.  The dash pad and seat belts with shoulder harness are original to the car and show signs of ware.  Stewart Warner dual gauge panel with temp and oil.  Column shift bench car from the factory.

 

Running Gear:  The drive train is original and numbers matching.  396/350 rebuilt and runs excellent, original distributor, heads, intake and carb.  Trans is a TH400 rebuilt and shifts as it should.  12 bolt with 331 open gears.  Power steering      

 

Suspension:  The suspension is original to the car and rides excellent with a nice tight feel.  The only component replaced was the passenger side upper ball joint.  New shocks 

 

Brakes:  Stock and restored power. 

 

Exhaust:  2 1/2 inch exhaust pipes with40 series Flow Masters.  Ceramic coated Flow Master headers that happen to be the original test set.  This car was used by Flow Master when they decided to build complete exhaust systems for 70 BB Chevelles.  The plant was located near the car and they asked to do the initial set using this car with jigs being made based on this set installed on the car.  Sounds awesome.  Original exhaust manifolds come with the car.

 

  

 

What doesn’t work:  gas gauge, temp, oil and tach not working due to the cluster change out.  Proper harness boot was not installed for a tach cluster, but the speedo does work.  A proper harness will eliminate this issue.

 

Bright work:  All original to the car with some signs of ware including the chrome bumpers, but very presentable.

 

Glass:    All original in very good condition with a few scratches.  

 

Wheels/Tires:  BFGs 225/70 14 new with original wheels in very good condition.

Summary:  This car represents a very original car and is real as it came from the factory with the exception of interior color change out.  Makes a great driver to enjoy with out breaking the bank.  The price is reasonable and represents a great value for the money.  I have over 120 pictures of the car so please contact me and provide your email address if you would like additional pictures.  Don’t miss out on this affordable ride.

Disclaimer:  The car is for sale locally.  The owner has the right to cancel the auction at any time for any reason.  No warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied with the car being sold in "AS IS" condition.

Feel free to call me to discuss the particulars.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
