Dayton, Nevada, United States

Here is the ultimate starter car for someone looking to build the 70 Chevelle they have always wanted.  The body is super solid and virtually rust free. What is visible in the pics is surface rust only, Nevada cars do not have rust issues like many other states. The car has been stripped down to bare metal so you can see exactly what you are getting.  I did the most crucial areas and what is left on the doors and front clip is a very thin coat of primer. There is no rust on the doors or front clip and the only dent, still covered by primer, is on the drivers front fender. The worst part of the car is the passenger side rearand the corner of the hood near the windshield.  It had bad body work but still no rust. It can easily be massaged back to near perfect condition by a competent bodyman.  There is no panel on this car that is even close to needing replacement.  The roof is also very solid as you can see NO PITTING of any kind or any back window rust.  Take a good look at the floor pans, they are really, really solid and tight, no boulder damage or whatever people seem to run over.  Again, the surface rust you see is just surface stuff that can be removed with a wire wheel, NO PITTING.  Antoher great thing about this car is it has not been over dissassembled.  What that means is for some reaon people love to take apart cars that have never doen it before and take apart the door guts and dash parts that do not need to come apart.  The doors and rear quarters inside have never been touched.  All of the window regulators, glass etc.. are in perfect shape and function perfectly, if you build cars you should really apprecitae this.  Same for the dash it is still intact and only the lower A/C plastic was removed but I  have all of it.  So back to the body, as you can see it has very solid panels, rockers, and everything that is usually rusty is not.  It was a vynial top car, which usually equals rust but take a really good look and double click the pics to blow them up to full size, no pitting and no rear window rust. Doors open and shut nice, all body gaps are really good, no inner fenders. ( I would like to build this car for someone so if you want it built I can help you get this as far as you would like.) The glass is in great shape only the rear window has some minor scrathces.  The front glass is new. The milage is oroginal 71K thats it.  I found the build sheet, but who cares it was a nothing car with a 350.  It would make a great big block clone or LS conversion car.  I have the seats and the rears were redone as shown and I do have the material to finish the fronts if you want it.  It has a tilt column that is nice and tight. Ignition keys but no door or trunk keys, trunk lock hole not butchered.  The rear end is a stock 12 bolt, open carrier no idea what the gears are but they probably suck.  Front disc brakes and tubular control arms, frame was cleaned and painted.  I have the A/C stuff but I would use the A/C delete cover or go aftermarket.  I just have the firewall A/C stuff.  The hood is an original GM Super Sport hood, not a repop so worth putting a few dollars into.  I have the front end wiring harness and all of it looks intact and useable.  The window trim is missing and what is there needs to be replaced.  The trunk is also very solid and just needs clean up with a wire wheel.  The wheels and tires are just good for rolling around I would not consider using them, the wheels are fine if you are into that look.  I have described the car to the best of my recollection but please do not assume anything! Ask any and all questions prior to bidding.  You are bidding to take this home or to own and have me build but not to hmmm and haaaa over it. Got it, great... Also this car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early so dont wait til the end of the auction, shoot me your best offer and a phone number and I will get back to you, if i don't, then reconsider your offer. The car is a roller with no brake pressure but it does steer. I f you need help with seting up transport I can help you there too. Clear open Nevada tilte in hand.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
