First, and most importantly to the Chevelle purist, is the question..........IS THIS A REAL CHEVELLE SS and can you prove this?

The answer is, YES! I did not have a build sheet for this car, and we all know how poorly General Motors kept track of SS records in 1972 in the US, BUT...............not in Canada!!!!! At GM Canada, they have a Division called GM Vintage Services Div. And they have all of the records on all GM Canada built Chevelles. So, if you are fortunate enough to have had your SS built in Canada and have no build sheet, they will give you all of the info on the birth history of your Chevelle. This even includes the dealer it shipped to, which in my case was Bud Colt's Chevrolet in Lansing Michigan, they will also give you build date, all options that were ordered on the car, and standard items. They will also tell you how many cars with your option and standard packages that they built in that model year. To authenticate and prevent tampering on these reports, they use raised GM certification seals <like a notary of the public seal> and they place this over the VIN #, and options that affect the car, and the employee creating the report. They use 3 seals per sheet. In this case, the Z15 option is for the SS and cars built to this spec that year was 1,542 vehicles. These sheets of authenticity go with this Chevelle. This means everything to many of us that want a true, pure Chevelle SS. It is a fact that most SS Chevelles out there from 72 are clones and most without the original engine. This car has it everything that true Chevelle folks want! Clones without original motors going for $25k to $35k just blows mind but I guess beauty and value are in the eyes of the beholder. This car has, and will continue to appreciate in value for many many years!!! 


This is a thoroughbred and NOT a clone! She is right now, as she came off the Assembly Plant Floor..........a true Chevelle Super Sport!



Now, almost every 40 year old car has a story to tell and this one is no exception. The car is in very good condition. It was purchased from a retired gentleman in Southern Michigan. After many phone calls to previous owners, the original engine was a barn find!!! The engine was real rough <picture in ad of as it was before re birth> and was sent to the best in the business, D&S Detroit Muscle for a complete re birth. She was stripped, baked, re machined, painted and completely rebuilt. She was brought up to 300 HP plus <look out big blocks> built up to 4 bbl and was put back where she belongs, in her first home as she came from the factory. She has less than 50 miles on her and runs like the day she came off the line, only better < there is a full warranty on the engine>. New MSD Ignition, Heddon coated headers, new pan etc. This car sounds AWESOME! Engine compartment was cleaned and painted as well. Over $8k was spent on this engine project and I have all receipts for all work performed.

New carpet, new dash face, all gauges professionally rebuilt, new pan, seals, gaskets, hoses, trans mount, rebuilt drums, new springs and shocks, new tie rod ends. 

Seats and dash are excellent. Tires very good. Everything under the hood is like brand new and is warranted. Interior is excellent! If I were going to keep her, I would have her wet sanded and buffed out. Paint is a 7 , but I am very critical. Cowl door should be re striped.

I encourage you to come have a look and take her for a drive.

The ONLY reason that I am selling this great car is because I just bought a 1970 SS with a 4 speed which was on my bucket list! I am 52 years old and survived open heart surgery earlier this year and the Mrs told me to go buy my 4 speed. 

If you want a car that you can drive for many years, worry free, this is the car for you! You won't be disappointed! I am sure I have missed something, and I am no mechanic so I included a pic of the specs on the car as well. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding! Shoot me an email with any questions or to schedule a day to see the car.

Will also consider trade for 1966,67,68, or 69 Chevelle SS of equal value or as part of a deal. No other trades accepted, sorry!

I can help with scheduling shipping as well. I like Reliable Transport.

Spring is here, and this is a car that you can drive cross country tomorrow with confidence!

If you would like a video of the car running, please let me know. I cannot figure out how to do it in the ad, and the kids are at college! ;)

2018 Hyundai Accent vs subcompact sedans: How it compares on paper

Fri, Sep 29 2017

Hyundai first revealed the new 2018 Hyundai Accent a few months ago, but that debut was in Canada for the Canadian-market car. We didn't get our look at the U.S. version until just recently, which is when we also finally got plenty of specifications on the little car. So as we did with the Genesis G70, we've brought you a breakdown of the Accent's specs and some of the segment's best and most popular: the Nissan Versa, Kia Rio, Chevrolet Sonic and Toyota Yaris iA. Before we get to the chart, let's give you a quick reintroduction to the 2018 Accent. The subcompact is completely new this year, and under the hood is again a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. It makes 7 fewer horsepower and 4 fewer pound-feet of torque than the outgoing model with totals of 130 horsepower and 119 pound-feet. This drop in power probably won't be noticeable, though. It's also available with either a manual or automatic transmission, both featuring six speeds. Fuel economy hasn't been announced, but the Rio's numbers below are probably a good indicator as they share powertrains. The one thing that isn't available with an Accent is a hatchback. According to Autoweek, the hatchback was canned with the assumption that hatch buyers would simply purchase an example of the upcoming Kona crossover. But if you want a traditional subcompact hatch from South Korea, Kia is happy to oblige, as the Rio is still available as a hatchback. Learning that the Kona may have killed the Accent hatch causes us to wonder if Kia brought the Rio hatch to the U.S. because it wasn't planning on offering the Stonic.
