Up for auction is an Incredibly Nice 1970 Chevelle SS.

I’m selling this 1970 Chevelle SS (Clone) for a friend and it is one incredible Muscle Car, very clean, runs strong and is a reliable driver…..an all around desirable “Top Shelf” head turning ride.

I will list all the details as best I can and will offer up my phone number for you to call with any questions you may have.  Feel free to call me at 662-560-4609 (leave a message if I don’t pick up) or email me through Ebay and I’ll get back with you.

This car was purchased by the current owner in 2007, and was newly built & painted prior to him buying it, and since then he has added vintage A/C added, factory SS dash w/ gauges, steering column, carpet w/ sound barrier, stereo and other miscellaneous improvements.  It is a clone SS and from the cowl tag it was originally a V8 car.  Title is clear and in hand ready for a sale.  VIN #136370R261051 with the firewall info plate having the following info:

70-13637     ST  46029
TR  756     45  45  PNT
06D773

The outside of the car is very clean.  The paint is a hugger orange with the white racing stripes; it has a very good shine and is consistently smooth from front to back.  When I gave it a wash, I noticed it had a few very small chips (1/8” in size) at random, which could easily be touched up.  The body is one of the straightest ones I’ve seen with even seams all around.  The trim, window moldings, grill, light bezels, etc. are all in very good condition.  The back & front bumpers are clean, however the front bumper has a few little dents when you look up close (no chrome is chipping, just a few dents).  The glass is very clean with the passenger door having a few small chips in it.  Again, the body is very solid and straight with all the lines matching up well.  Solid steel throughout.  All the lights work (parking, hi/low beams, turn signals, breaks, reverse lights, etc.) and while the flasher button exists, the flashers don’t function (goes back to the reliability…..probably not needed).  The windshield wipers are in place and functioning.  After the washing the car, I noticed the truck seal needs replaced and the side mirror needs tightened.  The trunk pan is clean as are the floor pans. 

The rims are American Racing Special Edition with Kumho ECSTA All Season P275/40R17 on the rear and P235/45R17 on the front.  Tires & rims are all in very good condition.  Disc brakes on the front & drums on the rear.

Now for the interior.  Black interior, extremely clean carpet (new as mentioned above), front & back seats, vents, door panels, headliner, dash, glove box, and console w/ working courtesy lights.  The items in need of replacing are the dash pad and rear side sail panels (see pics).  The dash has all the working gauges and lights up, and the speedometer reading is working however it shows the speed faster than the car is actually going.  Really nice Vintage Air A/C system.  Pioneer stereo/CD with front speakers mounted by the driver/passenger feet and speaker box in the trunk.  Missing are the driver side speaker cover and dome light cover.  Seat belts are clean & functioning well.

The engine is a 454 Big Block, 4-Barrel Holley with a mild cam.  The transmission is a Turbo 400 automatic with the console shifter and it shifts very firm.  The rear end is a 12 bolt.  The car is a little cold natured, but once it warms up, it idles smoothly with a nice little thump and responds well to the touch.  Header exhaust, dual all the way back with a crossover….sounds really nice.  I drove it around town and since it’s not my car, I gave it enough fuel to know that it will get it if you want it.  Temperature is steady and runs cool.  It has power brakes & power steering and drives like it came from the factory.  Air shocks with a single stem below the license plate for airing them up.

I’m sure there are questions that I haven’t answered, so give me a call or drop me an email.  I’ll be happy to take additional pictures and possibly set up a video for you at some time for the serious buyers if you’re unable to come see the car in person.

This is one very clean and beautiful ’70 Chevelle SS.  I have the car at my house so I can look, take pics and talk about it during the evening hours to help answer any quick questions.  Again, the owner bought this about 7 years ago so the engine build, paint shop, etc. are unknown.  However, I can attest that this car was built very well based on a few local Muscle Car builders and the owner has taken really good care of it (driven mostly to shows and some cruise ins).  You will be very pleased with this Chevelle once you see, hear & drive it.  I can be reached at 662-560-4609 (leave a msg. if I’m unable to answer right away) or send me Ebay emails and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.  The owner does have this car for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction if the reserve hasn’t been met.  Once the sale is complete, I’ll work with you on picking it up but would like to have it picked up within a week.  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
