you are bidding on a 1970 chevelle california car that was made into a ss 454 clone. as u can tell by the trim tag this car was built in Van Nuys California plant as a 1970 chevelle malibu 2 door sports coupe 8 cylinder . it was painted green mist with a dark green interior.
The car spent its whole life in california untill 1994 when the owners family moved out to New Jersey. The car has never been "on the road" since then. It belonged to a kid i went to highschool with. his father had previously owned a bodyshop and it was a father and son project. they did a frame off restoration on the car between 1994 and 1999 but they never completed it. they had sent the car out for paint in 1999 and it sat in the body shop till 2004 when i traded him a 1967 camaro for the chevelle.
The way u see the car in the pictures is exactly the way i got it. it has been sitting in my moms garage since 2004 collecting dust. every time i thought id start working on it something would come up and sidetrack me. now in 2013 i have excepted that after buying a house im just not ever going to have the time to finish this car.
about the car....it has to be one of the cleanest origional sheet metal cars i have ever seen. the body is 100% gm sheet metal. you can pretty much eat off the car. the floors and trunk are perfict. along with most all the typical problem areas for chevelles. the car was stripped down to bare metal and i was told the only rot spot was on the pass quarter bottom right behind the rear wheel maby the size of a baseball??? i can see where there is filler there on the quarter and the inner wheel well. i can also tell you that at some point the weel well lip on the quarters was trimmed down to clear bigger tires. its not flush with the quarter pannel but its maby 1/3 the width now.(pictured) I am not a body guy by any means, but it appears that the only filler used on the car was for minor dent repair. obviously there is some where the quarter meets the roof and where the windshield pillars meet the roof as these spots were filled with lead from the factory. all the gaps in the body are nice(by gm standards). (pictured) . currently the car is in black primer with about an inch of dust.
the car has all the ss 454 options like power disc breaks, 454 engine, turbo 400 automatic transmission, 12 bolt posi rear end, boxed lower control arms and frame braces, ss rear bumper, and gm cowl induction hood.
the motor is in running condition, doesn t smoke or knock, and i can demo it for you. as far as any specs on it i have no info. just that it is a 454. and i did run the numbers at one point to verify it wasn t a 402. when i got it there was no distribuitor wires or carb so i just threw some on there to get it running. the wires will need to be replaced and the carb needs to be rebuilt.
the transmission is a turbo 400, and again i have no specs on it, the shifter cable/ linkage is not hooked up so i just leave it in neutural. aslo the trans lines are just looped with rubber trans hose. the hard lines will need to be run to the cooler.
the rear end is a chevelle 12 bolt posi. i dont know the gears, but i have verified its a posi because when u jack it up bolth wheels spin in the same direction and also the car i verry hard to push while the steering wheel is turned. It is not a buick, olds, pontiac, rear.
as u can see in the pictures it also has a floor shift steering column, buckett seats,power steering, and a ss dash.
the car will need to have all the break lines and fuel lines ran, also all the wireing hooked up(included with the car). all of the glass is there except for the windshield. i have the stainless windshield and back window trim. I t will aslo need an exhaust system from the headers back. the engine needs a powersteering pump and belt.
the car has a clean and clear nj title in my name.
On Feb-27-13 at 07:39:57 PST, seller added the following information:
The interior is mostly complete, it will need carpet, a floor shifter,a headliner, the sail panels,rear seat shelf cover and seat belts.
because the shifter is not hooked up, and the lack of break lines, you can t drive this car . it will have to be trailered home. if your trailer doesn t have a winch be prepared to use a come along.
On Feb-27-13 at 10:42:35 PST, seller added the following information:
the back seat and bucket seats are currently in the car. i took them out to take pictures of the floor pans which are usually problem areas on chevelles. The floors and trunk are 100% origional, no horrible patch jobs with those ugly weld seams front to back.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For 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.
Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]
Wed, Jan 14 2015Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show
