     Thanks for looking at our listing for a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Super Sport. This SS has an interesting story, it was in storage most of the last 23 years being driven only 1,500 miles during that time. Currently the odometer shows only 37,158 miles (milage may increase slightly due to test drives), and the milage is stated as actual on the title. The SS has a few options you don't see every day, it features a functioning Cowl Induction Hood, has the LS package (front and rear sway bars), In Dash Tach and Clock, and Tilt Steering Wheel. This Super Sport still has the correct original 14" Steel Rallye Wheels with White Lettered tires. This is a RARE color combination Chevelle Super Sport with white exterior and Saddle interior.

     The engine in the SS is a "non-numbers" matching engine. The numbers on the block are CE167289, which make it a Chevrolet "over the counter" replacement block. The transmission is a automatic Turbo 400, and the rear end is a 12 bolt. The mechanics of the car are good and other than needing new tires (they are weather checked from storage) could be driven anywhere. Here is what was done to the SS since being taken out of storage. The heater core was replaces along with the hoses, new exhaust gaskets, new points, plugs, and wires, and the 4 Barrel Carburetor was completely rebuilt.

     The Chevelle SS 396 has had one repaint (in laquer) and is in presentable condition, but it going to need an exterior restoration. Both rear quarters have some rust (see pics) above the wheel wells (normal to all Chevelle's) and will need patch panels. Also, there is a small spot of rust on the right front fender (see pics) where it meets the door. Underneath the doors are very good (see pic). The laquer paint is weather checking which is also normal to laquer paint. Other than that the body is in good condition for a 44 year old car. The underneath of the SS is in suprisingly good condition showing no rust in the floor pans or trunk area and still has the original GM undercoating from the fractory.

     This Super Sport has the Bucket Seat option with center console and horse shoe automatic shifter, and again the in dash tach and clock (not working). The headliner has been replaced and the rest of the interior is very presentable and depending on your standards could be used in present form.

     Here is a opportunity to purchase a RARE color and optioned Chevelle Super Sport with low milage that is in it's original unmolsted condition. Again, this SS will need at least a exterior restoration. Mechanically the car is good and the interior is good. This is NOT a Show Car, but could certainly be driven in present form and the price reflects the work the car needs.

     At CARSTORE we do our best to describe all vehicles to the best of our knowledge and have over 30 years experience and have sold over 100 classic and special interest cars, however we are not responsible for any errors or omissions. We invite you or a third party to do an inspection at our store located at 1423 South Webb Rd in Grand Island, Nebraska or call 308-380-1040.

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds

Sun, Dec 28 2014

We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.

Chevy Bolt EV, Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Ridgeline take 2017 NACTOY prizes

Mon, Jan 9 2017

Every year the 2017 North American International Auto Show kicks off with the North American Car of the Year Awards. We say "awards" after all those mentions of our home continent because it's not just cars. This year, in fact, the awards spread out to three separate honors: Car, Truck, and Utility. And without further ado, here are the winners. The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is the Car of the Year, the Honda Ridgeline is the Truck of the Year, and the Chrysler Pacifica is the Utility of the Year. Honda's win is perhaps the biggest surprise, upsetting favorite the Ford F Super Duty for the win. The second-generation Ridgeline rides on a unibody platform and is offered in front- or all-wheel-drive, which is unconventional for a pickup. But the layout also offers a cargo bed with an in-floor trunk and solid fuel economy figures of 19 city, 26 highway in its most-efficient form. The Chevy Bolt EV, however, was probably the easiest winner to predict. Its 238-mile range and sub-$30,000 starting price after tax credits make it a breakthrough in the landscape of electric vehicles. With the Chrysler Pacifica available in a plug-in hybrid form, this year's award illustrates the industry's shift towards efficiency and electrification. And with Ford's recent announcement on future EVs, it might not be long will it be until we see a hybrid truck on the award stage as well.Related Video:

GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues

Fri, Feb 27 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module.

In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.
