1972 Chevrolet Nova High Quality Build Fuel Injection

Reasonable Rides and Rods presents this 1972 Chevrolet Nova for your consideration.  This Nova is a high quality restored/custom car that needs nothing and can be driven and enjoyed now.

Paint/Body/Trim

Painted in Silver-Blue Metallic, the paint presentation of this Nova is outstanding.  Already a very solid car, it was stripped down to bare metal and painted.  This is a high quality paint job and all of the gaps are done well.  The firewall, floor pans, drop offs and trunk are in excellent condition.  All glass and trim are new and in excellent condition.  All new weatherstrip was installed throughout the car when it was painted.

Interior

The interior is a combination of stock and aftermarket components.  The front seats are new Procar Rally and the rear seat has been covered with the same material.  The custom rear package tray utilizes the same material.  The steering wheel is a Billet Specialties Street Lite attached to the custom tilt column.  A custom console was created and houses the gauges and a B&M Mega Shifter.  The stereo is a Retro 2 knob with MP3 capability.  The carpet, dash, door panels, and headliner are in great shape.  The fuel injection handheld computer is located in the glove box.  The interior of this car is extremely nice and adds a lot to the presentation.

Engine/Transmission/Rear End

The engine is a four bolt main 350 bored .030 over with a steel crank, 10:1 SRP forged pistons, Competition Cam, Edelbrock Aluminum Heads, Edelbrock Air Gap Intake, MSD 6 Ignition, billet accessories, and MSD Atomic EFI.  The engine has less than 200 miles since the build and performs flawlessly.  The fuel injection ensures that this car starts every time and is extremely responsive.  As you can see in the pictures, the entire fuel system is built for the fuel injection.  The fuel tank and pump system is done correctly to support the fuel injection.  It is dressed with all of the Edelbrock engine components for a nice presentation.  The engine is estimated to produce 400 hp.  The exhaust has Hooker long tube headers and is a full length stainless system with Flowmaster mufflers.  A four core aluminum radiator and dual electric fans keeps this little Nova running cool.  The transmission is a built Turbo 350 Automatic with a 2500 stall converter.  The transmission was built at the same time as the engine.  The rear end is a GM 10 bolt with an Auburn posi unit and 3.73 gears, and a Trick Flow cover. 

Suspension/Brakes/Tires/Wheels

The suspension and steering components are all new.  The steering has a manual gear box, but has been upgraded to a quick ratio box.  The stock control arms were retained, but all bushings are poly urethane.  A set of Competition Engineering subframe connectors were added to handle the power.  All new Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brakes were installed with slotted and cross-drilled rotors.  A new chrome booster, master cylinder, and proportion valve complete the brake system.  The car rides on new SLG Series Billet Specialties Wheels and Nitto NT555 235/40-18 front and 245/40-18 rear tires.  The car drives and steers better than new. 

Overall

This Nova has been built right.  Everything works on the car and it is fast, reliable, and enjoyable to drive.  With the fuel injection set up, you could use it as a daily driver, or a weekend cruiser/show car.  This is a totally solid car and a very high quality build with over $40k spent on paint, engine, trans, suspension, interior, wheels/tires, ect.  You will not be disappointed.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
