FULLY RESTORED 1970 SUPER SPORT CHEVELLE! ALL NEW! 454/450 HP MOTOR, DISC BRAKES, 12 BOLT POSI, POWER STEERING, FAST & CLEAN!

1970 TRUE SUPER SPORT CHEVELLE! JUST COMPLETED A FULL RESTORATION LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AGO! ALL NEW, FRONT TO BACK, NOT A DIME SPARED! POWERED BY A FRESHLY BUILT 454/450HP MOTOR! LOADED WITH POWER STEERING, FRONT DISC BRAKES, AND IT'S ORIGINAL 12 BOLT POSI REAR END! OVER 50K INVESTED!

     It has taken just over a year to complete this full restoration. It has only been a week since the interior was completed and less than thirty days since the paint work was completed. Over all, the car has just about 100 miles on it since being completed. Originally, this was a 396 car. Today, it is powered by a professionally built 454 big block that is pushing over 450 horsepower. Just standing next to it, you can feel the Earth rumble below your feet. Now punch the gas and even the bravest human being will start clinching for dear life.

Body: The body on this Chevelle still retains the majority of its original sheet metal. Surprisingly it did not need all of the typical sheet metal replacement. It still retains its original floors, doors, roof, rear sill, cowl, rockers, and frame rails. The sheet metal that was replaced consisted of brand new full quarters, a one piece trunk pan, and trunk drops. All of this work was done professionally. This car is completely solid, rust free, and exceptionally straight. The body was taken off of the frame and new body bushings installed. The paint work was also done professionally. It has no blemishes, cracks, bubbling, nor any other issues. Not often can this be said but the paint looks just as nice in person as it does within the photos. All of the chrome through out the Chevelle is new. The front and rear bumpers are new. The head lights and bezels are new. The majority of the stainless is new or has been refurbished. The wheel house moldings are all new. All of the weather stripping, cowl covers, door inserts, everything is brand new. The front disc brake setup is all brand new. From the booster, all the way to the end of the lines. It is all brand new. The front suspension is also new as is the rear suspension. On the rear, we used a brand new set of NOS GM air shocks.

Engine & Mechanical: The 454 within this Chevelle has been completely rebuilt. It was built with a mild cam and performance heads. It has around one hundred miles on it since being completed. It does not smoke, leak, or burn an excess amount of fluid. It does run on pump gas but does require the higher octane (premium) fuel. When the body work was completed, the motor was dropped in the Chevelle so it was the second major item that was completed on this Chevelle. The 350 Turbo transmission does have a shift kit and it too was completely rebuilt. It shifts out smoothly with no problems and takes full advantage of the lower end torque. If you dump the gas, it will just sit and roast the tires. The power steering setup on this Chevelle was a remanufactured unit. The original front disc brake setup was completely disassembled and replaced with a brand new and more modern front disc brake setup. All of it is brand new. The original 12 bolt posi was also taken apart and regreased. It works flawlessly which you will see within the video located below. The exhaust is also all new.

Interior: With the exception of the original Super Sport dash, gauges, and back half of the center console, every inch of the interior is brand new. The headliner, front & rear door panels, package tray, visors, console insert, door & window handles, dash pad, steering wheel, carpet, door sills, front & rear seat covers, backs, overhead light, it is all brand new. This work was also done professionally and looks excellent. When you first enter in to the Chevelle it smells like new.

     There are definitely plenty of 70 Chevelles out there to choose from. Unfortunately though, there are not that many fully restored ones that haven't been ran through the ringer or patched together. With our Chevelle, you can take comfort in knowing that you are getting a new car that hasn't been on the road long enough to even be considered misused nor abused. In short, there is NO AGE to this car so if you're wanting your very own newborn, you've found it. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the Chevelle early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. I do have a clear title for this Chevelle. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

GM plans to sell the Chevy Tahoe and Cadillac Escalade in China

Fri, Nov 6 2020

General Motors Co plans to sell full-size sport-utility vehicle (SUV) models in China for the first time, and will import a range of models to beef up its product lineup into the world's biggest car market, its China chief told Reuters. The plan would mark a change of tack for GM, which currently produces all of the vehicles it sells in China within the country, which is set to be the only major economy to grow this year amid the COVID-19 pandemic. GM, China's second-biggest foreign automaker, is aiming to offer four models as it looks to improve its brand image and support a sales recovery: Chevrolet's Tahoe and Suburban, Cadillac's Escalade and the GMC Yukon Denali. The Detroit-based company is showcasing those models at the China International Import Expo, or CIIE, an annual import show in Shanghai which started on Wednesday and runs into next week. "Our intention is to get customer reaction and find a way to sell these cars in China," said GM's China chief Julian Blissett. The automaker sees opportunities for such vehicles, partly because Chinese families are expanding, he added. "We are looking into a variety of market sales plans for these vehicles, including online sales, leasing and others," he said, declining to give a detailed timeframe for the plan. GM's Buick and Cadillac mid-size SUVs helped the group's Chinese sales grow 12% in the third quarter this year, the first quarterly growth in the past two years. But it does not have full-size SUV models, which usually have a third row of seats and has room for six or seven people. BATTLEGROUND China, where over 25 million vehicles were sold last year, is a crucial battleground for global automakers including Volkswagen AG, the biggest foreign player by sales volumes, GM and Toyota, as well as local leaders Geely and Great Wall. The country has seen auto sales pick up in recent months following a COVID-19-induced slump, and authorities say they have largely brought the epidemic under control following its emergence in the central city of Wuhan at the end of last year. The expansion plan would also mark GM's first official sales in China of GMC vehicles, a premium brand in the group. Previously GMC vehicles were only sold in the country via unofficial grey importers. The imports will, however, not change GM's basic production strategy in China. It will still mostly sell vehicles made in China - for now, at least. "Depending on however we go we might make other decisions," Blissett said.

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

Michael Jordan's cars showcased in 'The Last Dance' documentary

Sun, May 10 2020

After the masses begged and pleaded for an early release, ESPN finally unlocked the doors to the biggest production in company history last month. Episodes 1 and 2 of The Last Dance, a 10-part documentary special about Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls, and the 1997-1998 season, was released at last on April 19, 2020. Each week since, two new episodes have aired on Sunday nights, and the next two, episodes 7 and 8 are scheduled to drop this weekend on May 10. With unprecedented video access to MJ, who became averse to the media during his playing days, a byproduct from The Last Dance is a look at some of Jordan's cars. The Goat's taste ranges across a number of brands, but they all had one thing in common: performance as a top priority. Below, we have listed the rides that have already appeared in the series, and each week, we will update with new car cameos. Chevrolet Corvette C4 The photo above somewhat epitomizes one of the themes of The Last Dance. Everybody, whether that was men, women, children, franchise owners, reporters, coaches, teammates, or opponents, wanted a piece of Jordan. If that meant stopping in the middle of the road to get an autograph, then so be it. Around town, MJ was fairly easy to spot due to his flashy cars that occasionally wore Bulls red. Jordan has driven numerous Corvettes throughout the years, but the C4 is unique in that it was Chevy's top ride when Jordan signed an endorsement deal with the American company during his rookie year in 1984. Two famous photos, one in front of the Chicago skyline, show him standing next to a C4 with the license plate "Jump 23." This exact car, however, came later, as indicated by the squared-off taillights. He went on to star in a number of Chevrolet commercials with vehicles such as the Blazer and S-10 pickup truck. Chevrolet Corvette C5 The most notable Corvette His Airness ever owned was likely the C4 40th Anniversary ZR-1, but he also drove a C5 coupe at one point. Roughly nine minutes into the first episode, Jordan is seen driving the chrome-wheeled targa top into the parking lot at the Berto Center, the Bulls old practice facility.   Ferrari 550 Maranello Roughly three minutes into episode four, viewers get a glimpse of Jordan's exotic taste in the form of a red Ferrari 550 Maranello.
