1971 Chevelle. Non ss. Car is registered and insured under my name. Can drive it on California 91 octane anywhere you want. I recently had the car painted in base clearcoat. Paint is nice and body is extremely straight as the pictures show. Car shows exceptionally well and gets a lot of attention. This car has never been in an accident and all body panels are original to the car except for the hood, which was replaced with an original Chevelle hood. There is absolutely no rust on this car.

Suspension Rearend is a Fab9 housing from Chris Alston that bolts into chevelles. Strange axles. Shocks are competition engineering adjustable drag shocks front and rear. Boxed rear control arms New calipers, Wilwood rotors, and braided brake lines New upper and lower balljoints, drag link, wheel bearings, and hardware. Fuel system Braided -8an front to back with a return system into aluminum fuel cell in trunk. Valving system to pump fuel to or from stock fuel tank also. Exhaust Mandrel bent 3 inch headers back. Fully muffled with X pipe. Turndowns just before rearend housing. Makes some noise and sounds absolutely amazing. Cooling system New stock replacement radiator Mark VIII electric fan Never runs hot even on the few extremely hot days it has been driven. Wheels Weld racing wheels front 165R15 tires Weld racing wheels rear 325/50/15 ET Street tires Tires are new. Rear wheels are new. Interior Front seats are new aftermarket buckets. Door panels are new Armrests are new Carpet is new Interior panels dyed black Paint and body I stripped the car down prior to bodywork. All bumpers, door handles, trim, and side glass removed. Removed engine to clean front frame, radiator support, control arms, and firewall. This was then primed and painted in base clear black paint. New Goodmark inner fenderwells were sprayed in gloss black single stage. Please keep in mind this was done in my two car garage so the body was not removed for this. The entire frame is not painted. Just the front section to the transmission tunnel area. Its not perfect but does look very nice. Next I reassembled the frontend and reinstalled engine. Then adjusted the fender and hood alignment. All panels line up great and hood opens and shuts correctly with no binding. Trunk lid was removed for prep. I ran out of time to fully prep the bottom of the hood prior to it going to paint shop. Looks good under hood still just not perfectly smooth as I would have liked. Car was sent to painter afterwards for final blocking and masking. The color I chose is called Havasu blue metallic. It is a factory color from a 2003 Honda Odyssey. It is a very similar color to the original light blue that was applied to these cars and is a very easy to obtain factory car color if future touchup work is ever needed. When i got the car back from paint I fully cut and buffed the paint. All of the trim, bumpers, door handles, etc. were in good enough shape for a driver so all of that was polished and put back on the car. Weatherstripping and all seal gaskets are new. Windows are very smooth and correctly adjusted. No shaking or rattling and seal up nicely. Engine was put together several years ago. Has been freshened up a few times as needed over the years but have found no reason to change a single thing on it. Has maybe 2000 miles since last rebuild. Transmission was recently done by the same person who built the engine. Roughly 1500 miles on that. This engine and transmission has proven dead reliable. I do not drive it often lately but it has been on several road trips that were a few hundred miles long without so much as a hiccup. Issues or things I believe should be fixed. The front windshield has a crack in it and drips water when I wash it. I would simply have it replaced as opposed to resealed. The car has had a switch panel installed in it for several years that it does not need. But it controls starter, electric water pump, fuel pump, and electric fan. Works fine. Just no reason to have it on a street car. Dashpad is cracked. Rear seat is not correct for the car. It dimensionally fits and looks right but it is not for that car. Lastly, I believe at some point the wiring harness should be replaced with a Painless harness. Everything works and I have seen no issues as of yet. But the car spent countless hours getting wetsanded. On top of being 40 years old, its just a nice way to modernize the wiring and save possible future headaches in my opinion. That is about all I can think of. The car is an absolute blast to drive and gets an overwhelming amount of attention. I guarantee you cannot take this car more than a few miles away from home without turning heads and getting compliments. You'll be lucky to get it out of your driveway before that. The car is not perfect but its certainly very nice. I have been accurate down to every detail that I can think of on this car but legitimate buyers are welcome and encouraged to see it in person during the auction or contact me for any questions NOT answered in the ad. Thanks for looking. Car is listed locally and if sold during the timeframe of this auction prior to meeting reserve, I will cancel bids and pull auction. Fred 916-390-5157 On Jun-29-14 at 12:06:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Reserve is very reasonable on the car. In order to be fair to all bidders, I will not release what that amount is though. Just bid what you are willing to realistically pay for the car. Thanks. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Impala bi-fuel sales; VW e-Up fire
Tue, Dec 15 2015Chevrolet has delivered about 200 units of its bi-fuel Impala so far. The automaker originally planned to begin sales in summer of 2014, but was delayed over a year due to quality concerns. Now, the bi-fuel Impala, which runs on both gasoline and CNG, has begun delivery, mostly to commercial and fleet customers. The car begins at $38,210 (including destination charges), and will be available at 3,200 US dealerships. Production of a 2016 model is underway. Read more at Green Car Reports. The US Department of Energy (DOE) has announced $35 million in funding for hydrogen and fuel cell technology projects. The money will support research and development, manufacturing, and early deployment of the technologies. The DOE also wants to bring together consortia to work together on fuel cell cost, performance, and durability, as well as hydrogen storage research. "As FCEVs become increasingly commercially available, the Energy Department is focused on advancements to enable hydrogen infrastructure including production, delivery, storage, and manufacturing, as well as continuing to reduce fuel cell cost and improve durability," the DOE said in a statement. Read more from the DOE. A Volkswagen e-Up! caught fire after a collision with a train in Norway. The driver, Christopher Traasdahl Saether, was able to jump from the electric Volkswagen before the train hit, and was physically unharmed. It also appears that there were no injuries among the passengers on the train. "It was quite a way to start the day," says Saether. A photographer at the scene reported that the car burst into flames when a salvage crew attempted to remove the wreckage from the railway crossing.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Here's the 2016 Chevy Camaro Convertible
Mon, Jun 22 2015Chevrolet is planning to reveal the 2016 Camaro Convertible on Wednesday, June 24. But here it is ahead of time, thanks to some leaked images found by the folks at Camaro6.com. These photos were apparently posted to Chevy's website and then immediately taken down. But they clearly show the new droptop Camaro from a number of angles, with the top both up and down. Not surprisingly, the Camaro's design hasn't changed for the convertible body style, and it looks pretty good. Have a look at the low-res images in the gallery above. We'll have the full details later this week.
