After reading my additional comments about the quarters there are NO signs of patching or replacement at all, sorry for the con fusing comment


On Nov-28-13 at 14:28:13 PST, seller added the following information:

Was asked a few questions so here is a honest answer as this vehicle has not been subject to modifications other than the radio and nothing was cut or disturbed as it came with dual rear speakers and the chain of ownership is well documented THIS IS A TRUE GARAGE FIND The engine that bears the VIN of the vehicle is a January build so my strong belief is that it is 1971 specifications producing 270 H.P. rather than the 200 H.P. produced in 1972 drive it and believe it as I believe this was RPO vehicle for the showroom as it is highly optioned you can choose to believe this or not bot I have been restoring classic Chevrolets for over 45 years Another question was where is the smog pump and because this was an RPO vehicle ordered for sale in Tennessee Idle jet adjustment were plugged, compression lowered, timing retarded and this met a low registered vehicle state. Because of the nature of my business I was smog certified so have personal knowledge of all state requirements I presently have two offers from local buyers so this auction may close early if cash is in hand A TRUE GARAGE FIND AND HONEST CAR


On Nov-28-13 at 20:20:54 PST, seller added the following information:

I have been asked several questions from NOVA EXPERTS ? and question the validity of this vehicle, the statements that I have made are true to the best of knowledge, I build first generations Camaro's so they are not so complicated as they are what they are This is a TRUE GARAGE FIND and is one of the most unmolested original vehicles that I have ever owned and is well documented, even the original bill of sale This vehicle honestly drives as new and even the A/C blows cold so you be the judge,so if you want a real rare Nova that you can drive and enjoy, show at your local gathering then bid like you want to own it otherwise join the ranks of doubters If you would like to call please do so 562-8847621 ( I'm hearing impaired)so please speak clearly Thanks Denny from Denny's Bowtie Restorations

2016 Technology of the Year Finalist: 2016 Chevy Volt

Tue, Jan 5 2016

The 2016 Chevy Volt is in all ways an improvement over the Volts that came before. It's got a new powertrain, a new look, and new (and better) fuel economy figures. What's not to like? For the second generation, GM used the last few years of automotive battery improvements and customer data to deliver a car that took what people liked about the first Volt and offered up more of that. This means a longer all-electric range (from 38 miles to 53) and better gas-burning fuel economy (37 miles per gallon up to 42 mpg – oh, and you're not required to use premium any more, either). All of this for less money than the outgoing 2015 Volts. Chevy's new plug-in hybrid will start at $33,995, which is not only lower than the 2015's MSRP of $34,170 but it's also just a few hundred dollars higher than the average new car price in the US. In other words, the new Volt (and many other plug-in vehicles) is not out of the price range for most car shoppers. The interior has been updated as well, losing some of the oh-so-futuristic touch-sensitive center stack in favor of more realistic tactile buttons. This along makes the new Volt better than the first generation, but when it's wrapped up in the new exterior design, it just feels more appropriate for a car that's not trying to be from the future. Instead, the new 2016 Chevy Volt wants to be the best plug-in car for right now.

The future's electric — but the present is peak gasoline. Burn some rubber! Do donuts!

Wed, Jun 23 2021

I vividly remember the year 1993 as a teenager looking forward to getting my driver’s license, longingly staring into Pontiac dealerships at every opportunity for a chance to see the brand-new fourth-generation Firebird and Trans Am. Back then, 275 horsepower, courtesy of GMÂ’s LT1 5.7-liter V8 engine, was breathtaking. A few years later, when Ram Air induction systems freed up enough fresh air to boost power over 300 ponies, I figured we were right back where my fatherÂ’s generation left off when the seminal muscle car era ended around the year 1974. It couldn't get any better than that. I was wrong. Horsepower continued climbing, prices remained within reach of the average new-car buyer looking for cheap performance, and a whole new level of muscular magnitude continued widening eyes of automotive enthusiasts all across the United States. It was all ushered in by cheap gasoline prices. And as much as petrolheads bemoan the coming wave of electric vehicles, perhaps instead now would be a good time for critics to sit back and enjoy the current and likely final wave of internal combustion. Today, itÂ’s easier than ever to park an overpowered rear-wheel-drive super coupe or sedan in your driveway. Your nearest Chevy dealership will happily sell you a Camaro with as much as 650 horsepower. Not enough? Take a gander at the Ford showroom and youÂ’ll find a herd of Mustangs up to 760 ponies. Or if nothing but the most powerful will do, waltz on over to the truly combustion-obsessed sales team of a Dodge dealer and relish in the glory of a 797-hp Charger or 807-hp Challenger. Want some more luxury to go with your overgrown stable of horses? Try Cadillac, where you'll find a 668-horsepower CT5-V Blackwing. You could instead choose to wrap that huffin' and chuggin' V8 in an SUV. Or go really off the rails and buy a Ram TRX or Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 and hit the dunes after a quick stop at the drag strip. Go pump some gas. Burn a little rubber. Do donuts! There is nothing but your pocketbook keeping you from buying the V8-powered car of your dreams. Yes, just about every major automaker in the world has halted development of future internal combustion engines in favor of gaining expertise in batteries and electric motors. No, that doesnÂ’t mean that gasoline is going extinct. There are going to be gas stations dotting American cities and highways for the rest of our lifetimes.
