1969 Chevelle SS396

4 Speed

Monaco Orange Code 72


First, I am a licensed, insured and bonded Michigan dealer.  I have owned a dealership in Michigan since 1988.  I am not a classic car dealer, but do love classic cars in general.  When I take them on trade I generally enjoy them for a while, decorate my showroom with them, and sell them…several here on eBay over the years.  I took this and two other cars in on trade last year from the same person.  With this car which he owned since 1989, I took his 1960 Impala Bubble top and his 1970 Big Block Convertible Pontiac Lemans Sport Black on Black.   I will be offering these for sale here on eBay as well over the next few weeks.

Available for sale is my 72 Color Code, Monaco/Hugger Orange 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396 with a 4 Speed.  I will try to spare you the sales pitch as this car shouldn’t need one.  What I will try to do is give you as much information as I can is a short to the point description

So, in a nutshell.

  1.  Based on information from ChevelleStuff.net, 1969 this being Monaco Orange Code 72, this is a verified 396SS Chevelle.

  2. The car still is has a NOM 1968 396 L34 350hp(more for sure now) Engine (T0418EF Stamping) with 4 Speed M21 Transmission (3925660 Casting #). 

  3. Engine runs very strong and was built to go fast.  There is evidence as you will see in the pictures the car was drag raced at some point in its life per the driveshaft loops.  Front up top you couldn’t tell.

  4. Last time car was driven was in 2004 before I took possession.  Still has 2004 Michigan plates on it.  I have driven the car in a recent local 700 car cruise night.  Run, shifts and stops as it should.

  5. The car was repainted the original color in 1997 and is the paint on the car now.  The rear quarters have been patched very well.  Pictures of trunk drops will show nice.  The inner and our rockers are original and rust free.  The doors look like they had some glass put in the lower corners .  No bubbling or popping.  Does have a couple small cracks as you can see in pictures.  There’re small but I want you to know about them.

  6. Exterior body looks beautiful and straight.  Doors shut perfectly with a nice quiet solid thump.  Body lines are nice around.  I have not buffed this car.  You see the finish after I washed it.  I can tell is was buffed and waxed a lot as there are a two faint thin paint areas from buffing this single stage paint.  I tried to get them in pictures but it won’t show in pictures.   Like I said, faint.  You could walk around the car for a week and probably not notice them but I want full disclosure and no surprises.

  7. The underside is solid but has had a couple small patches put in.  Small like two inches.   It looks like the center tunnel has been cut for transmission fitting too.  Trunk floor, rockers, frame rails are all solid.  The pictures shows the underside as I received it.  No aerosol overhaul.  What you see is what you get.  Nothing hidden.

  8. Interior is great in near new condition with exception of small crack in dash on passenger side.  Carpet, seats, door panels, head liner and package tray.  All very nice condition!

  9. Glass is original and clear.  Rear window has several scratches in it.  Operators are all in working order.

  10.  Lights and gauges work.

  11.  Trim, chrome stainless is all in very nice condition.

If I was buying this car here on Ebay, this is the information I would want.  This combined with the pictures will give you, should be everything you need to make an informed decision.  It’s a real SS396 Chevelle in Orange.  If you consider everything I have listed here, all the pictures shown, and the fact I have maintained a 100% Feedback for everything I have sold here on Ebay, you can make a safe bet your expectations will be met or exceeded when you win and take possession of your new 69 SS396. 

As you would expect, it is a car that is over 40 years old.  It’s not perfect but looks and drives great, with a pretty great pedigree.  It is sold as is, without any warranty.  You as the buyer are responsible for shipping arrangements and the cost that goes along with it.  I do have a few contacts in that arena or Uship is a good source to get a competitive shipping price.  Please have all your finances in order before you bid, at least before the auction ends as a listing does take a fair amount of time and cost to put together.  I haven’t ever run into any problems here, and really don’t want to start a trend.  Be a stand up person as I will be.  Terms of the sale include a $1000.00 deposit made via PayPal, cash and bank wire at auction end.  I am a dealer and have a credit card processing machine, so that is an option also.  The balance is expected within 7 days of auction end but sooner would be appreciated.  This is in cash or wire transfer.  In this listing I have been very upfront and honest and expect nothing but the same in return.  I appreciate your time reading my listing.     My reserve based on the selling price of some clone SS396’s, is low so there should be a new owner at the end of the auction.  My ultimate goal is to sell the car.  The car is available for sale at my dealership, so I do reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells prior to auction end.  My name is Kurt.  Enjoy the auction.  If you have questions, please feel free to give me a call directly at 231 578-2887.  If you would like to see the car, it is located at my dealership in Whitehall Michigan.  And, yes, that is my short version.  Have a good oneJ

2019 Chicago Auto Show photo gallery: All of the grilles

Fri, Feb 8 2019

Do you like trucks? How about grilles? Like really big, shiny, chromey, in-your-face, could-be-made-by-Broil-King grilles? Well, the Chicago Auto Show is the place to be. Traditionally known as the truck show of the annual auto show circuit (at least those covered by national media), Chicago has what seems like a small national park's worth of acreage devoted to both consumer and commercial trucks. From humble extended cab Ford Rangers to a mammoth F-650 with cherry picker sprouting from its aft quarters, there's bound to be a truck for everything. And they all have grilles. So above is our gallery devoted to them, because hell, why not? Should you want to know about the trucks attached to those grilles, check out our coverage below.

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

Thu, Jan 21 2016

From the Washington Auto Show today, Green Car Journal's Ron Cogan announced three different fuel-efficient vehicle awards. They were: 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year: Chevy Malibu Hybrid 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year: Volvo XC90 T8 2016 Green SUV of the Year: Honda HR-V The Volvo was nominated in two categories, but it did not win the Connected Green Car of the Year. Speaking of non-winners, the other green SUV finalists were the BMW X1 XDrive28i, Hyundai Tucson, Mazda CX-3, and Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. The other Luxury Green Car finalists included the BMW x5 xDrive40e, Lexus RX 450h, Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid, and the Mercedes-Benz C350e. Finally, the Audi A3 e-tron, BMW 330e, Toyota Prius, and Volvo XC90 T8 were the runners up for Connected Green Car. 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year, Luxury Green Car of the Year Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has announced the winners of its prestigious 2016 Green Car Awards at a press conference held today during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day in Washington DC. Distinguished as 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year™ is Volvo's new XC90 T8. The Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid tops the field as 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year™ and Honda's HR-V earns Green Car Journal's 2016 Green SUV of the Year™. "These are stand-out vehicles in an increasingly sophisticated and appealing field of 'green' cars," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "To make the cut as a finalist is a real achievement in itself considering the considerable competition in the market today. Rising to the top as award winners means these three exceptional vehicles set a benchmark in the auto industry's effort to create vehicles that are desirable and efficient, while also achieving environmental milestones so important for our driving future." The Green Car Awards are a key feature of The Washington Auto Show, the "public policy show" on the auto show circuit and one that puts a priority on safety and sustainability. "We are extremely proud of our partnership with Ron Cogan, whose eagerly anticipated suite of awards help shape the national conversation on the innovations that will drive our industry and country forward," said Geoff Pohanka, chairman of The Washington Auto Show.
