1964 Chevelle - 2-door No Post - 4-speed - 3.73 Posi on 2040-cars
Lakeside, California, United States
1964 Chevelle Malibu 2 door no-post
First year of the Chevelle! 1963 December build date - This car is old school: manual locks, roll up windows, manual transmission Paint is a good 20-footer, but it needs to be redone. Interior has new door panels, new headliner, new carpet, new (stock looking) front seats, new wiring harness, full aftermarket gauge set (oil/temp/volts) and column mounted tach. The rear seat is kind of custom. I bought the car in New Mexico, and it looks like somebody was planning on really doing up the interior - it's tuck and roll velour. Looks cool - very vintage, and is in very good shape Rims are after-market classic aluminum wheels with NEW Goodyear tires, but I also have the stock steelies with two (2) 1964 dog dish (poverty) caps. (the steelies have new tires too). Buyer gets both sets of rims/tires and the poverty caps. I included pics of both so you can see how the wheel/tire combo affects the look of the car Factory 4-speed transmission with Hurst shifter. 3.73 Posi rear end with new seals and bearings New drive shaft. New 10 1/2 clutch and pressure plate. (receipts for everything!) Engine is a BRAND NEW 350 crate engine from Jegs (have all receipts) Specifications: • 4-bolt main with 2-piece rear main seal • Cast iron crankshaft • LT1/LT4 powdered metal connecting rods • Hydraulic flat tappet cam (.383''/.401'' Lift, 194 / 202 Duration @ .050'', and 112° lobe separation) • Cast iron cylinder heads with 76cc chambers • Block has right side oil dipstick • 4-quart oil pan Engine is topped with an Edelbrock Performer intake (painted Chevy orange), and 600 cfm Edelbrock carb (1405). NEW HEI distributor with mild advance, and brass terminals on cap NEW Jegs performance plug wires NEW spark plugs New exhaust: Headers, Dual 2.5" pipe, Dynomax Welded Ultraflo Mufflers, sounds AWESOME! As you can see from the specs, this is a VERY mild motor (260-290hp). It is the PERFECT base if you decide to build this car into a beast (remember - the engine is NEW from GM - not rebuilt, it's a 4-bolt main, has LT1 rods etc.). Slap on some heads and a cam, and this sucker will scream. In fact, I'll throw in a set of 1975 Corvette heads with chrome valve covers with the car. Engine has been broken in per GM's specs, and has less than 20 miles on it right now. Still needs to be broken in (about 200 miles) before really beating it up. I travel every other week for work, (and did a number on my back making it tough to drive a stick), so I haven't had the time to run it too much yet. Chassis: mostly stock with NEW springs front and rear, NEW tie rod ends -- inner and outer and drag link, NEW upper and lower Ball Joints, NEW front shocks, air shocks in the rear. The only non-stock modifications to the chassis are: * Front Sway Bar - used a 1.25" bar from a 1981 Trans Am with polyurethane mounts. The stock one was wimpy, but is included with the car *Steering Box from a '97 Grand Cherokee. Same turning radius as stock, 2.5 turns lock to lock, MUCH better road feel. *Power Steering Pump from a 1980 Chevy pickup. Needed more pressure and O-ring hard lines for the new Jeep steering box! ** All suspension modifications look stock - you'd never know until you drive it** 4-wheel power drum brakes (front and rear are finned!). I will also include a Scarebird front disc brake conversion kit with the car. I have receipts for everything I've done, and for the work the previous owner did (rebuilt tranny, etc). Also have a trunk-load of extra/spare parts, and assorted books/manuals. Just renewed registration last week (good until July 2015!). Car is real nice and straight - it just needs some finishing touches to really stand out. Because of the age, car is sold "As-Is". Looking to get $18k or best reasonable offer - Car is located in Santee CA. * NOTE: more photos can be seen on my ad over at racingjunk. com |

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
