1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible 396  4 Speed  12 bolt posi    Not matching numbers. Figure the car to be a clone. We don’t have anything for paperwork to prove otherwise.

 Please be sure ALL your questions have been answered BEFORE bidding !  thanks  This is a real SHARP looking and  nice driving ragtop we recently acquired.  We are a  small  dealer and  occassionally we stumble on something interesting that we feel is worth throwing on the internet.  The last owner  had this vehicle for about 17 years. We were told the car had a complete paint back maybe 20 years or so.  This is an unrestored car that still shows nice. Not a 75,000.00 dollar museum piece but just a real pretty driver.  The  top was recently replaced with a brand New convertible top along with new pads. It has a glass rear window. also new bumpers. It has nice looking paint but again not perfect. It does show some normal chips , scratches + wear etc. from age but not all that many.  I see the rear left 1/4 glass has scratches.  The underside  looks clean. The tin cross brace under the front seat has been changed. The trunk is  solid. The spare and jack are also there.    Please do any inspections BEFORE BIDDING  not AFTER BIDDING.   As far as the mechanics goes  it has a Beautiful Sounding  Big Block were told is a 396 “High Perf” 325 HP with a “Muncie”  4 speed transmission  with a 12 bolt posi rear. The clutch has alittle chatter leaving first gear but shifts easily with no slipping. Numbers I found on the front of the engine block are T0110JQ for those who are numbers guys.  It has “GM” exhaust manifolds with 2 1/2 inch aluminized dual exhaust. It also has a 650 CFM spread bore carb with mechanical secondaries.  A “Hurst” 4 speed shifter along with an HEI ignition and a Edelbrock  performer  2.0 intake.  It has Power steering, Power front disc brakes and a Power convertible top.  Most everything looks to work like the heater, wipers, outside lights, emergency brake, power top, stereo + horn.  I see the dash gauges and tachometer work with the exception of the amp gauge.  The factory clock even works.  The car must be in "reverse" gear to remove the key from the ignition as it has the reverse lock out. What I see is,  the engine compartment  could use some cleaning up or detailing.  All the windows seem to go up + down fine, could use alittle adjusting like most do but  operate fine.  We also have a folder full of receipts to go with the car. Please  Feel free to come check and verify any information within.  This listing is mearly my opinion + subjective. Satisfy yourself before bidding. We strive for happy educated customers. I also believe ebay offers an affordable inspection service .

All in all a great investment to have fun with or restore to perfection.

 As with any vintage vehicle it is being sold as is cond.  Any out of state buyer will pay No sales tax to Connecticut.  A Connecticut resident will pay a 6.35% sales tax.   A 250. paypal deposit is due  at the conclusion of the auction.  The balance is due within 3 days in either cash in person, a bank to bank wire or a certified check.  Please be aware ANY check will take a minimum of 5 business days to clear. Vehicle and title to be held until any check clears, that includes bank checks. Thanks

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
