Nova Ss 1967 118 Vin Ls Restomod on 2040-cars
Santa Cruz, California, United States
1967 Nova SS Restomod. Professionally built, rare vinyl top, Marina Blue with Black SS interior, all correct trim. 4 wheel disc brakes, professionally wired and flashed. starts and runs smooth and perfect. Heidts front end with power rack and pinion and coilovers. Ladder bars and new leafs in back with 12 bolt Posi and 4:33 gears, brand new exhaust with stainless x pipe and deep but classy exhaust sound. Vintage air blows Ice cold and modern Sony stereo with amp and 6x9s sounds great. This car cruises like a modern car with a beautiful and rare 67 SS attitude. Brand new Coys and Continental tires. Very nice build and an award winner at its first outing. Not a new paint job, but the paint and bodywork were top flight when they were done. Does have some fine scratches that can be seen in the right light. It has a spot on the trunk that the previous ebay seller sold it to me with a sticker over it. Needs a pro touch up, or maybe a vintage dealer ID ad plate? Has three point seatbelts in front, none in rear. The car was originally set up for drag racing so the battery is in the trunk and it has a cutoff switch. The diff also has extra long studs. The powertrain is from a 50,000 mile 2005 Silverado. It is not an LS1. The stock truck manifold fits well under the hood, and actually gives it great bottom end torque because of the taller manifold. I dressed it up with a SS engine cover from a trailblazer SS. It looks like GM engineered it to be in there. The ECM is hidden behind the LF wheelwell with a access door and all the wiring is clean and hidden. The OBD II and check engine light hookup look factory and work, and it is all professionally flashed for speedo accuracy, shift points etc.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If 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.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.
