 I am selling my 1970 Nova SS 396 L-78.  I do not have any paperwork on the car but it has all the signs of a real L78 Nova.  (big block heater core, big block radiator core, single 3/8 gas line and sending unit.)  The motor is not the original one but it is a real CKO L-78 396 from another Nova. The motor has been completely rebuilt with all correct numbers and correct date coded parts. There is very little rust on the car.    This car has been off the street since 1981.   It runs great and  is very fast.

Block:    3969854    CKO                         Trans:                3925661,  P0S18A, 10W185998

Heads:    3964291                                     Water pump:     3969811

Intake:    3963569                                     Distributor:       1112000

Exhaust: 3909879, 3916178                     Alternator:        1100837 

Carb:      4557                                           Rear end:          CBT  3:55 Posi

The transmission is the original one to the car. It works great. P0S18A date code

The rear end is not the original one to the car but it is a correct 12 bolt CBT 3:55 posi rear end that has been rebuilt. The  date code is CBT 0501  2  E

The car has new rear leaf springs, gas tank, tires and restored wheels.

The interior is mostly original except for the front bucket seats someone installed.  This car was originally a bench seat 4-speed.  The shifter hole was cut out a few inches so that a Hurst shifter could be used. (easy fix).  The carpet, headliner and rear seats are original and are in good shape. It has a remote side mirror and a rear defrost.

The body has all original panels as far as I can tell.  The front fenders and rear wheel well lip have some rust but are not bad. (see pics).  There is a little rust on the deck lid an at the front of the dash by the windshield.  The frame is solid.   The floor pans and trunk are in good shape.  Original color was Champagne Gold which can be seen all over the car.  All the glass is good and original.  Has a black vinyl top.

This is a great car to finish up or drive around like it is.  Look at the pictures and ask questions. I can send more pictures if anyone wants.   If you would like to come look at the car that can be arranged.  I have a clear Texas title.  This car is sold as is, ask questions or come and look at the car before bidding.  Good luck.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.

Outrageous Thor24 semi truck to appear in the new season of 'Jay Leno's Garage'

Tue, Apr 28 2020

Wednesday is Jay Leno's birthday, and CNBC used the occasion to announce the upcoming season of Jay Leno's Garage. In a new teaser video, Leno is seen with a stacked list of guests, some new, some repeats, as well as a wild gamut of vehicles, including the absolutely insane 24-cylinder, 3,424-horsepower Thor24.  The outrageous semi build, which sold at auction in Saudi Arabia earlier this year for a whopping $12 million (or $1 million per supercharger) will join the likes of the Tesla Cybertruck and a recliner on wheels on the upcoming season of Jay's series.  Thor24 View 24 Photos The formula for Jay Leno's Garage is simple, successful, and not changing anytime soon. He brings out a bunch of famous people, some of which are real enthusiasts, others who have more casual driving backgrounds, and they experience a vehicle together. In the short clip released by CNBC, Leno is accompanied by Elon Musk (again), Danny Trejo, Bill Burr, Tim Allen, Jon Hamm, Brad Garrett, Jeff Dunham, Kelly Clarkson, Matt LeBlanc, Blake Shelton, Norm MacDonald, Edd China, and Jon Lovitz.           View this post on Instagram                   Thank you for sharing your dream with us. Happy Birthday, Jay! Love always, your @cnbcprime Family. A post shared by Jay Leno's Garage (@jaylenosgarage) on Apr 28, 2020 at 8:27am PDT The people, however, are merely social lubricants to spotlight the real stars of the show, the cars. This season will include the Tesla Cybertruck, the record-breaking Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, a 1965 Buick Riviera, a naked cat car, an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, a Porsche Taycan, a modern Ford GT, a Chevrolet Corvette C8 hard-top convertible, amphicars, a snail car, a beetle car, a couch car, and the 24-cylinder, 12-supercharger, 3,424-horsepower Thor24 semi. Just to name a few. As usual, there will be racing, stunts, spinouts, smoke from both tires and engines, and lots of silly dad jokes. Season 5 of Jay Leno's Garage debuts on CNBC on May 20 at 10 p.m. ET.

Car and Driver reveals spy shots of mid-engine 2017 Corvette

Thu, Jan 8 2015

Some news in the car world is perennial, and some is perennially wrong. Typically news about some upcoming mid-engined Chevy Corvette has fallen into the latter category, with rumors never yet generating a road car. This time could very well be different. Car and Driver has some exclusive photographs of what would appear to be a Corvette test mule with a mid-mounted engine. The car in question might look like a Holden SSV ute that's undergone some indelicate modification, but C/D editor Don Sherman assures that the bones of a C8 'Vette live within that crude bodywork. Sherman points to the closeness of the cabin to the front axle as clue number one of this car's mid-engine attitude, as well as the powertrain-sized space between the back of the seats and the rear axle. The roof and glasshouse are all clearly plucked from the current C7, and the gas tank filler positioned on the B-pillar is another huge clue. The buff book estimates that the mule points to a timeline for sale, even. Testing on this level could mean a mid-engined C8 ready for sale in as few as 20 months, or for the 2017 model year. Click over to Car and Driver to have a close look at this important set of spy photographs, as well as a rendering of what a finished C8 might ultimately look like
