You are looking at one of my many cars that I will be selling on ebay. I am selling my collection of cars due to personal reasons. Within the next few weeks I will list my other 70 Nova, 73 Scamp, 49 Olds, and many more. This Nova is a 1966 Clone SS. It has a 283 engine with a 3 speed automatic. Engine was completely rebuilt with many performance parts including a B&M power charger/super charger. Engine, trans, rear work great. Rebuild job has less than 3000 miles on it. It has dual exhaust with flow master mufflers, but there are no tail pipes installed and never were. It has Cragar wheels, like new tires, 205-70-14 in the front, 245-60-14 in the rear. It does not have power steering or power disc brakes. Overall the paint looks great, however there are small chips on the paint of the right side roof behind side window, (I just noticed and did not even touch them up), on the left side same place the paint has some some light bubbles, there are small bubbles on the left rear bottom rocker panel, and slight paint wear on the deck lid. Rear shield has a few sand paper marks in it, but it is not too bad and hard to notice. Both front fender are new however every once in a while when you make a sharp turn hitting a bump, the right fender with scrape the tire. The left used to do the same but I had it adjusted. I never got around to do the left because it does not rub all the time and it does not damage the fender or tire. There are also some slight imperfections on the right side of the hood, that could probably be sanded out and buffed. The hood is fiberglass. I have attached pictures to show the areas that I am describing but these areas really don't look that bad and you must realize that this car is not a perfect show car, so these issues did not bother me, however I as always try to over-disclose everything. From a slight distance the car looks great. The inside overall is decent, however the headliner is original and is white, it also has two holes in it where I think at one time a mouse ran in and out of it. Either way it should be changed to red. Seats looks good as well as the carpet. The door panel are Ok, however they got warped from dampness where the car used to be stored. Eventually you should replace them. The left door hinge pin is starting to get loose and eventually it should be replaced. The underneath of the car over all is decent. It has a good fuel tank, trunk, shocks, frame rails, however it does have some rust areas that I just noticed on the lift, but none of the areas are in a serious place. I've attached some photos of the underneath to show the spots. At one time the floor was refinished from the inside and they did not finish the underneath surface to match. The spots that are bad (again the spots are not in a safety area) are easy fixes. I just got a price to fix the spots correctly and professionally from a auto fabrication shop and he quoted me a dollar amount not to exceed $500.00 to make it perfect. Again I am not really worried about these areas that much to fix them, but if somebody was making a show car they could easily repair the areas at a low cost. The floor panels are solid and this car is not a complete rust bucket, it just needs to be finished properly to be a show car. The area you see on the underneath of the drivers side floor was replaced on the inside of the car , however whoever replaced it did not cut out the underneath to cover it correctly. As you can see, I am attempting to list every and all details about my car so that there is no surprises. The miles on the odometer read 29840, the title reads 126,350, the car will be sold with miles exempt. This car at one time was a automatic on the column, then had a clutch and now is a automatic. As seen in the pictures the clutch pedal was never taken out, so you can take it out or leave it in, in the event you install a stick shift. This car turn heads every where it goes. It sounds great, the 283 engine screams of power and it is fast and it looks as good as any other clone ss that is out there driving by. It is certainly not perfect, but if you want a clone nova ss for a decent price, this is the one. The car could be driven home, but I would recommend towing it, especially if you are going a distance, because of the low gearing. The speedometer works, but it is not accurate. The car is being sold AS-IS. It is located in Coal Township, Pa 17866. Buyer will be responsible for shipping costs and transfer fees. A $200 deposit is required at the end of the sale. I prefer cash or paypal, but I will not release the car until the paypal money is cleared into my account. If you are the purchaser, please be prepared to pay for the car. Please do not come to pick the car up and ask me to reduce the price. I have over-described this car so that I am not hiding anything so there should not be any surprises. When you physically see the car the surprise you should see is that it looks pretty good. Most of the problem areas that I have described would have been missed by the buyer. My son has just put this car on you tube, while we were taking it for a ride. When I get the links I will list them or you can request me to email to you. Thank you and happy bidding!

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
