1962 Chevrolet II 400 Nova Convertible -Modified:

 

In 1962 all Nova’s were delivered with either a 4 or 6 cylinder engine.  Starting in 1964 the V8 option was available with a 283. There were 23,741 convertibles manufactured in 1962 and we believe they were all made at the Willow Run, Michigan plant.  This car was the second to the last convertible made with a VIN SN of 23740 according to Krause Publications-American Cars 1946 –1975.  The restoration objective was to achieve a performance vehicle to a later year SS class. 

 

During the period from about 1995 and 2010 the car had a frame off restoration and upgraded drive train including a rebuilt 305 V8 with appropriate transmission (Powerglide), 10 Bolt rear axle, Edelbrock carb & front wheel disc brakes.  Engine rebuild specifications are not available. Attractive red vinyl seats and interior trim were installed.   Original dashboard was retained without modification.  It was purchased by the current owner in 2010 who has now completed the restoration including:

-         Power steering

-         New rack & pinion front suspension system.  

-         Body part alignment issues were fixed and the car was repainted to the white restoration color.

-         Engine compartment cosmetics.

-         Aluminum radiator.

-         Custom chrome wheels and new tires.

-         New brakes

-         Air shocks. 

-         Convertible top was replaced and windows adjusted to achieve a much improved water-tight fit.

-         Factory radio replaced with AM/FM/CD and 4 speakers.

 

Power brakes, power steering and AC provides the comfort features that you want. Owner has the prior owner wheels with spoke wheel covers.

 

Recent appraiser rated the car a 10 in all rating categories including body, frame, drive train, interior and exterior quality/condition.  Appraiser quote “..stunning, straight as arrow…pristine overall condition..”

 

Recent appraisal available on request.

GM to idle Indiana truck plant for two weeks over chip shortage

Fri, Mar 25 2022

WASHINGTON —General Motors said Friday it will idle for two weeks in April an assembly plant in Indiana that builds pickup trucks, over ongoing semiconductor chip shortages. The Detroit automaker said it will halt production at its Fort Wayne assembly plant, which builds the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, for two weeks starting April 4. "There is still uncertainty and unpredictability in the semiconductor supply base, and we are actively working with our suppliers to mitigate potential issues moving forward," GM said Friday. The automaker said this is its first semiconductor-related full-size truck production downtime since August. GM noted that overall it has "seen better consistency in semiconductor supply through the first quarter compared to last year as a whole. This has translated into improvement in our production and deliveries during the first three months of the year." GM Chief Executive Officer Mary Barra met with some lawmakers on Capitol Hill this week, including Republican Senator Todd Young of Indiana. GM is backing a bill in Congress to provide $52 billion in government subsidies to boost U.S. semiconductor manufacturing. GM said that legislation could help "alleviate the ongoing shortage that continues to impact U.S. automotive manufacturing." (Reporting by David Shepardson; editing by Jonathan Oatis) Related video:

2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled for steering issues

Thu, Sep 13 2018

DETROIT — General Motors Co is recalling more than 1 million pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles in the United States due to issues with a temporary loss of power steering, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said. The recall is for 2015 models. They are: the Chevy Silverado 1500, Suburban and Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon and Yukon XL and Cadillac Escalade. The problem may cause difficulty steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash, the auto safety regulator said in a document dated Sept. 12. The document did not highlight any reports of accidents and injuries, because of the power steering issue. GM dealers will update the power steering module software, free of charge for owners of the affected vehicles. In 2014, the No.1 U.S. automaker had recalled nearly 800,000 pickup trucks worldwide because of the same problem. GM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Related Video:
