1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible 396  4 Speed  12 bolt posi    Not matching numbers. Figure the car to be a clone. We don’t have anything for paperwork to prove otherwise.

 Please be sure ALL your questions have been answered BEFORE bidding !  thanks  This is a real SHARP looking and  nice driving ragtop we recently acquired.  We are a  small  dealer and  occassionally we stumble on something interesting that we feel is worth throwing on the internet.  The last owner  had this vehicle for about 17 years. We were told the car had a complete paint back maybe 20 years or so.  This is an unrestored car that still shows nice. Not a 75,000.00 dollar museum piece but just a real pretty driver.  The  top was recently replaced with a brand New convertible top along with new pads. It has a glass rear window. also new bumpers. It has nice looking paint but again not perfect. It does show some normal chips , scratches + wear etc. from age but not all that many.  I see the rear left 1/4 glass has scratches.  The underside  looks clean. The tin cross brace under the front seat has been changed. The trunk is  solid. The spare and jack are also there.    Please do any inspections BEFORE BIDDING  not AFTER BIDDING.   As far as the mechanics goes  it has a Beautiful Sounding  Big Block were told is a 396 “High Perf” 325 HP with a “Muncie”  4 speed transmission  with a 12 bolt posi rear. The clutch has alittle chatter leaving first gear but shifts easily with no slipping. Numbers I found on the front of the engine block are T0110JQ for those who are numbers guys.  It has “GM” exhaust manifolds with 2 1/2 inch aluminized dual exhaust. It also has a 650 CFM spread bore carb with mechanical secondaries.  A “Hurst” 4 speed shifter along with an HEI ignition and a Edelbrock  performer  2.0 intake.  It has Power steering, Power front disc brakes and a Power convertible top.  Most everything looks to work like the heater, wipers, outside lights, emergency brake, power top, stereo + horn.  I see the dash gauges and tachometer work with the exception of the amp gauge.  The factory clock even works.  The car must be in "reverse" gear to remove the key from the ignition as it has the reverse lock out. What I see is,  the engine compartment  could use some cleaning up or detailing.  All the windows seem to go up + down fine, could use alittle adjusting like most do but  operate fine.  We also have a folder full of receipts to go with the car. Please  Feel free to come check and verify any information within.  This listing is mearly my opinion + subjective. Satisfy yourself before bidding. We strive for happy educated customers. I also believe ebay offers an affordable inspection service .

All in all a great investment to have fun with or restore to perfection.

 As with any vintage vehicle it is being sold as is cond.  Any out of state buyer will pay No sales tax to Connecticut.  A Connecticut resident will pay a 6.35% sales tax.   A 250. paypal deposit is due  at the conclusion of the auction.  The balance is due within 3 days in either cash in person, a bank to bank wire or a certified check.  Please be aware ANY check will take a minimum of 5 business days to clear. Vehicle and title to be held until any check clears, that includes bank checks. Thanks

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford steals Best Green Brand spot from Toyota, EV buyer survey goes online

Wed, Jun 25 2014

Chevrolet is one of the Top Global Green Brands of 2014, according to brand consultancy firm Interbrand. Chevy ranks number 32 on the list, which cover brands across a wide variety of segments. The report measures brand perception and brand performance, and the gap between the two is small for Chevrolet. "The company is not only actively demonstrating its environmental commitment," says Interbrand CEO Jez Frampton. "It's communicating those efforts in an authentic way that resonates with customers." Chevrolet cites its Spark EV, Volt and Cruze models as reason for its green cred. This is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Being 32nd is good and all, but other automotive brands ranked much higher than the Bowtie. Ford, Toyota, Honda and Nissan took the top four spots in the report, respectively, with BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz all besting Chevrolet. The big takeaway here is that Ford topped the list. In the Top Global Green Brand list's four-year history, this is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Ford was second on the list last year, and 15th in 2012. "Ford embodies everything the business of the future must be: efficient, visionary, flexible, adept at problem-solving, cooperative, and focused on creating shared value," Interbrand says on its website. "From unveiling a first-of-its-kind solar-powered vehicle, the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept, to partnering with peers across sectors to do the seemingly impossible - like creating bio-plastic out of tomato fiber with Heinz-Ford is showing us what's possible." It bears mentioning that Ford's most recent MPG adjustments came after the study was conducted. Ford is also making the news for its 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine earning International Engine of the Year for the third straight year. Awarded Best Engine Under 1.0 Liter, the turbocharged three-cylinder motor earned high praise from judges. "This year's competition was the fiercest yet, but the 1.0-liter EcoBoost continues to stand out for all the right reasons – great refinement, surprising flexibility and excellent efficiency," said International Engine of the Year co-chairman Dean Slavnich. "The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is one of the finest examples of powertrain engineering." The 123-horsepower engine powers the Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost, and will be available in a version of the Ford Focus in the US later this year. See more about the award in the press release, below.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Nissan Leaf sales get January jump as Chevy Volt trends downward

Mon, Feb 3 2014

The cold January sales dip hit both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt last month, but when compared 2014 to 2013's first-month-of-the-year sales totals, one of the two early plug-in vehicles obviously came out on top. The top Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months. Last year, the Leaf sold just 650 units in January, but it managed to move 1,252 last month, a 92.6-percent increase over 2013 but a big drop from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. Paige Presley over at Nissan told AutoblogGreen that the Leaf has now broken sales records for 11 months straight and that, "we see unique seasonality with some December pull-ahead demand based on federal and state tax incentives." The number one Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months, moving back to San Francisco. That change could be short-lived. "We had some inventory constraint issues early in the month in Atlanta with end-of-year demand depleting stock," Presley said. "By the time we resolved that, the weather hampered sales." There was not as much good news on the Chevrolet front. Last month, the Volt sold 918 units, down from 1,140 in January 2013 and 2,392 in December 2013. It also marks the first time the Volt has sold in the three-digit range since January 2012, when it sold 603 copies. That string of solid months means that the plug-in hybrid has a roughly 12,000-unit lead over the EV since the two cars brought plug-in vehicles back to the mass market all the way back in December 2010. We will have our full report of January's green car sales up soon.
