Original 1966 Chevelle Super Sport. This is a true RUST FREE 138 VIN car and it has the 396 big block NOM motor (casting number 3999290) with a turbo 400 auto transmission. I suspect the motor is bored and stroked given how strong it runs but I don't know this for a fact, as I have not been inside the motor. The cylinder heads are casting number 3856208 with big rectangular ports (most likely from a 1965 396/425 HP or Z-16/L37 Chevelle) and from the VIN (138176Z) we know this is a true, California Super Sport car manufactured at the Freemont, California plant. The firewall Trim Tag paint code (AA) indicates an original Tuxedo Black exterior color while the trim code (763) indicates it was originally supplied with Black Vinyl Bucket Seats. This car is rust free. While the car currently has a Turbo 400 auto trans, it was originally a 4-speed car and even has the clutch pedal assembly still in place. This would be an easy conversion if you wanted to go back to a manual transmission set up.

This car was built for pro-street and does drive good on the street. It has the fiberglass hood, trunk, and bumpers. Has Center Line Wheels , It also has a 4-link rear suspension with a set of Mickey Thompson 29X12.50-15LT tires that have some tread remaining, while still leaving room for a set of much wider tires if you wanted to mount them. It has a 4-link rear suspension with a 12 bolt rear end. Front power disc brakes with drilled and slotted front rotors, 7in. Dual diaphragm booster and rear drum brakes, stops great. The rear was tubbed for bigger tires and wheels and the job was done in a very professionally manner. The original black back seat base cushion and seat back are included with the car.

This Big Block motor runs very strong with a ratchet / slapstick B&M shifter making it a blast to drive. While I don't know all the details of the motor build, this is one of the strongest (and best sounding) drivetrains I've heard. The former owner / builder says it is running 13:1 compression. It has a Holley Strip Dominator single plane intake, with a Holley (List 4780-2) 800 CFM carburetor and Crane roller-rockers with huge headers and mufflers. MSD Ignition box with pro billet distributor and msd coil. Electric fuel pump. The previous owner also told me that it has 4:10 gears to put the power down. Here is a link a video to give an idea of how strong this motor sounds (http://youtu.be/rVHGw8j-1_k), but it still doesn't capture it as well as it does in person. This car is an absolute head-turner when it idles by with the nasty sounding motor.

The interior is clean as well. It still has racing bucket seats and driver side racing seat belts, the carpet is clean, and the headliner is clean and still in place. It has the optional full factory dash gauge package with two supplemental, after market (temperature and oil pressure) gauges mounted under the dash with a functioning fuel pressure gauge mounted directly in front of the driver's line of sight. It has an aftermarket tachometer mounted on the steering column that needs to be better attached to the column. The radio is missing though the dash does not appear to have ever been cut in anyway. All the glass windows are operational and in place. The interior door panels (and rear panel behind the rear seat between the wheel wells) have been replaced with nice aluminum panels but could be replaced with factory door panels if wanted to put it back to a stock configuration. Stainless steel sill plates.

The body of the car is in great shape. Base coat clear coat paint. All lights work. All trim is in great shape. There is no rust that I can find on the car. The black paint has a nice gloss, but has some nicks and surface scratches.

2022 Chevy Silverado HD gains Multi-Flex tailgate as an option

Mon, May 17 2021

GM is spreading the Multi-Pro Tailgate love around its truck lineup, and the Silverado HD is the latest pickup to gain the option. Just like the 2021 Silverado 1500, Chevy uses the “Multi-Flex” name for it in the HD, eschewing GMCÂ’s “Multi-Pro” branding for the bowtie vehicles. YouÂ’ll be able to option the tailgate on 2022 model year Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD models. ItÂ’ll be available optionally in every trim, so thereÂ’s no need to grab a more expensive trim to gain access to the trick tailgate — youÂ’re also not required to take it in higher trims. Functionality is the same as the standard Silverado and Sierra.  The primary gate opens and closes like any other tailgate out there. ThereÂ’s a primary gate load stopper that allows you to put the gate down and still keep things from flying out the back (it can also be arranged such that the load stopper is at a higher height by using the inner gateÂ’s stopper). The inner gate folds down perpendicular to the ground to allow closer access to the bed. A full-width step is available if you fold both “gates” down and pop out the inner panel. And lastly, the inner gate can be lowered to use it as a small work space. You can watch the short video above to get a quick run through of all the positions, or scroll through the gallery at the top of this post. Besides the tailgate, Chevy says the 2022 Silverado HD is gaining a new Greenstone Metallic exterior paint color. Other changes for 2022 were not detailed at this time, but Chevy says the trucks with this tailgate should be available sometime this summer. Related video:

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant

Mon, Jun 23 2014

The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.

2016 Chevy Volt arrives with 50-mile EV range, 41 mpg [w/ video]

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Let's start with the numbers. The 2016 Chevy Volt will have an all-electric range of 50 miles from a new, 18.4-kWh lithium battery. It will get 41 miles per gallon (combined) once the battery runs dry and have 102 MPGe. Oh, and it has five seats, sort of. To compare, today's four-seat 2015 Volt has a 38-mile range from a 17.1-kWh battery in a powertrain that offers 37 mpg and 98 MPGe. So, across the board, there are notable improvements. Now that that's out of the way, let's talk story. General Motors will unveil the new Volt at the Detroit Auto Show later today, but it's been talking about how this new version – the first major plug-in hybrid vehicle to get a serious redo in the modern era – was crafted with reams and reams of data from first-gen Volt customers. At a preview event for journalists last week, GM executive chief engineer Pam Fletcher told Autoblog that these owners "gave us the recipe" to make the second-gen model. At the top of the request list was more range (check), more "fun-to-drive" behavior (check?) and a smoother and quieter experience (we'll assume a check here, given that the new 1.5-liter four-cylinder – the first North American application of this new engine family – should offer more power with less noise than the previous 1.4-liter, four-cylinder powerplant). Other customer-driven changes in the new Volt include a different place to store the charging cable (in the side of the trunk instead of under the load floor) and a new brake system with improved blended regenerative braking feel as well as driver-selectable regen levels. The requested 50-mile range comes from a new, lighter battery that has increased capacity from fewer cells (192 vs. 288) and a simplified control architecture. Along with the new battery, the electric drive unit is a two-motor deal that is up to 12 percent more efficient and 100 pounds lighter, while also being "tremendously smaller," notes Fletcher. It offers 294 pound-feet of torque and a maximum 149 horsepower of "motoring power" delivered to the wheels. GM says it has worked hard to reduced the amount of rare earth materials in these motors, and one of them doesn't use any at all. The new powertrain offers improved acceleration times, as well. The 2016 Volt can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.4 seconds, a seven-percent improvement, while the 0-30 mph time has been improved by 19 percent, down to 2.6 seconds. The new Volt is more conventional looking, but certainly not completely ordinary.
