1973 Cheverolet Nova Ss Street Or Strip on 2040-cars

Year:1973 Mileage:68000

Randolph, Kansas, United States

Randolph, Kansas, United States

This nova was purchased 1996 and driven as a street car for a couple years then was taken off the street to become a race car. It was raced from late 97-2004 and then another car was purchased and this one put in storage until 2012 when I decided to rebuild the car back to a race car, well I lost interest once it was pretty much done. It has a 327 CI SBC that is bored .030 with TRW 11.1 pistons with new rings, NEW scat I beam rods, GM steel crank, Crane roller cam with NEW Crane roller lifters, Dart aluminum heads, NEW Roller rockers, Team G intake with Rons flying toilet injection, belt drive fuel pump. The motor is fresh with only break in time on it in fact it stills needs some tuning on the injection. Also MSD 6T ignition box with MSD billet dist., MSD blaster coil, and MSD wires. I installed new headers, new electric water pump drive, pan e-vac system, and a NEW super starter. Then I rebuilt the powerglide with all new seals, clutches, and band I also installed a deep aluminum pan, TH350 hardened input, and a Coan High gear Low gear valve body with transbrake, then installed a NEW ACC 3500+ stall convertor and to shift it all I put a new Hurst quarter stick in. Car also has the factory GM 10 bolt 8.5 with 4.56 gears and a mini spool. New Goodyear slick, aluminum wheels. Jegs switch panel installed were the radio was, new oil pressure and temp gauges. Has a older 8 point roll cage with sub frame connectors. Poly racing seat, with older 5 way seat belts. 8 Gallon racing fuel cell and new fuel lines though out the whole car, mount for 2 batteries, has on in it now, master kill switch. All new Compition Engineering adjustable shocks on all four corners. This car ran 11.80s before I parked it and it will run better now with some new updates I did. Now this car has a clear title and fully street legal but will probably need some work with the lights I am not sure they all work. The only wiring I changed around was moving the ignition switch to a push button. I completely went through the body work in 1998 with new rear quarters, new harwood fiber glass 4inch cowl hood and fresh purple paint, the paint is in ok shape now days has some scrathes and chips from years of racing. The floor pans are not too bad in the front they do have some small rust holes, but the trunk is rusted pretty bad so I put a sheet of metal in and raised the floor up and made it flat. All in all this car can be a nice street car or a great race car. The interior has cheap carpet on the floor and stock door panels, the door panels and dash some wear and cracks. All that I had left to do was fresh paint, work on the interior and have it alingned. The car was an original SS. Feel free to ask any questions. I am willing to deliver the car up to 300 miles for free if it reaches the reserve.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
