US $8,000.00

Petersburg, Virginia, United States

Re-listed with Buy it now and best offer -  Up for sale is a 1965 Chevelle 300 Deluxe 2 door coupe . It has a clean VA Title.

This car was purchased in Feb of this year for a restoration-mod project - but I've decided to sell it to help buy a piece of land that I want. Too many wanted things in life - not enough paycheck.
Car has had extensive work done to it already - it has no rot through on the frame, the trunk pan has been done, and all floor pans are in excellent shape, this is not a 'basket case" rusted out hulk. With an estimated 5-6000.00 dollars in work this car will be drivable, add in a paint job and it'll be show ready.  The car was originally Thaitan Blue from the factory, and a VIN decode shows it as being built in Framingham MA. I'm not a big fan of "clones" but this car would also make a great candidate to do a Z16 clone.

Car is located in Petersburg VA and could possibly remain at the shop it is at for restoration  - I make no promises or guarantee that it can- that is between you and the shop owner!!

The original engine was an inline 6 - it is long gone, and does not come with the car. Car will come with a 1999 5.7 Vortec style GM 4 bolt main block with roller cam (880 casting number) that has been recently totally rebuilt for an output of an estimated 360-380 HP and is 90% ready to go into the car. The engine comes with a set of GM Cast Iron Vortec style heads installed. An Edelbrock Intake is included as well. If you are not interested in the Engine - then let me know I will adjust the price of the car.

Car has a 3.08:1 rear gear in it - based on research. It was an original 2 speed automatic (Powerglide) car.
Car does NOT come with a transmission - I have not gotten that far with it as of yet.

Included in this auction  will be the following items:

A brand new complete bumper to bumper American wiring harness is included with this auction that was purchased from Summit for the project

A Brand new custom Billet dash insert from Bose Engineering with Speed, Tach, Oil, Amps, & Water Temp gauges is included with this project.

A Freshly rebuilt Holly 650 Carb is included with this project.

Rims and tires in the pictures are in excellent shape and are included with this auction.

Body molding / Trim is there and all glass but the front windshield is there.

2 Heated / Power leather trimmed seats from a 2012 Malibu are included with this auction. Keep them for a restro-mod style project or sell them to help offset the costs of replacing the interior. The car still has the original back seat but the front seat is no longer with the car.

A complete set of (16) Scorpion Roller Rockers are included to help finish up the 5.7L Engine build.

New - still in the box Proform Chrome valve covers with the Chevrolet Bow Tie on them are included with this auction.

Many more pictures are available to anyone who wishes to see them, simply send a message via E-bay and I will be more than happy to send you as many pictures as I have.

At the buy it now price of 8K I will provide 250.00 for shipping if you need the car shipped.

This car is for sale locally - I reserve the right to end this auction if the car sells before auction ends.

Feel free to ask questions - I will answer them as fast as possible - and good luck  !!

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
