1972 Chevy Nova Street Legal Hotrod Ready For Drag Strip 427 Big Block on 2040-cars
Paso Robles, California, United States
I’m selling my 72 Chevy Nova. I bought this car in May from a guy in Santa Barbara. He spent 10 years restoring it. It’s a street legal pro stock Nova, with a 427 big block, 396 crank. 3:73 gears. Also has 4 wheel disk brakes and Weld wheels. It has a little over 1500 miles on the rebuild. I have a new Mustang and I just don’t drive the Nova. Although it's street legal, with the high compression, the cam, and the torque converter it really belongs on the strip. Please keep in mind this is a drag race car.
Here are some details: It has 11:5 to 1 compression, custom ground billet solid roller cam with .600 lift and 238 duration at .50, oval port closed chambered heads that have been ported and polished with bigger valves, comp cams stainless steel rocker arms, and a single plane intake with an AED 850 carb. This is a nasty motor. It has a turbo 400 trans that was just built with a 3000 stall torque converter custom made by Mojave Green. It also has a ford 8.8 rear end with a Detroit TrueTrac diff with custom made moser 31 spline axels with a chevy bolt pattern. The interior is very nice. The only problem with this car is the paint. It has a lot of cracks. But everything else is ready to go. PayPal deposit of $2000 is required 24 hours after auction end. Balance due in 3 days. Reg. is good until March 2014. Clean title. California car. No rust. If you have any questions please contact me. Thanks for looking. |

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
