1972 Chevy Nova Street Legal Hotrod Ready For Drag Strip 427 Big Block on 2040-cars

Year:1972 Mileage:1500
Location:

Paso Robles, California, United States

Paso Robles, California, United States

I’m selling my 72 Chevy Nova.  I bought this car in May from a guy in Santa Barbara.  He spent 10 years restoring it.  It’s a street legal pro stock Nova, with a 427 big block, 396 crank.  3:73 gears.  Also has 4 wheel disk brakes and Weld wheels.  It has a little over 1500 miles on the rebuild.  I have a new Mustang and I just don’t drive the Nova.  Although it's street legal, with the high compression, the cam, and the torque converter it really belongs on the strip.  Please keep in mind this is a drag race car.

Here are some details:

It has 11:5 to 1 compression, custom ground billet solid roller cam with .600 lift and 238 duration at .50, oval port closed chambered heads that have been ported and polished with bigger valves, comp cams stainless steel rocker arms, and a single plane intake with an AED 850 carb. This is a nasty motor. It has a turbo 400 trans that was just built with a 3000 stall torque converter custom made by Mojave Green. It also has a ford 8.8 rear end with a Detroit TrueTrac diff with custom made moser 31 spline axels with a chevy bolt pattern. The interior is very nice. The only problem with this car is the paint. It has a lot of cracks. But everything else is ready to go.

PayPal deposit of $2000 is required 24 hours after auction end.  Balance due in 3 days.

Reg. is good until March 2014.  Clean title.  California car.  No rust.  If you have any questions please contact me.  Thanks for looking.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
