     I'm relisting my Super Sport Nova. I realized this week-end that I had it priced way under market value. Thanks TLC for making me aware of that. Would like to thank USA race team for their offer. We're not far off. In addition, I appreciate the rest of you guys I've spoken with that have shown what I believe to be a real and sincere interest. 
     The car actually speaks for itself. Fully documented with authentic original dealership paperwork, Protect-O-Plate, and buildsheet. 100% number matching drive train, 327/275hp 4-speed option with 60k real miles. Runs and drives incredibly well. Everything works as it should. Runs, shifts and drives very smooth.
     The top was replaced due to age. Have photos to ensure there are no rust issues. This is an entirely "rust free" car. It sat in storage a number of years. To ensure no internal damage the engine was pulled before attempting to crank it, then hot tanked, replaced bearings and oil pump, polished crank and rebuilt heads. 100% factory spec. Have pictures of all internals. It looked brand new inside when it was opened. Never street raced. The car is 100% unrestored beyond that. Original paint, interior, stainless, head and tail lamps etc etc. It was family owned and driven. I don't want to mislead anyone as the car looks a little better in the pictures, but not by much. The patina is a work of art in its own right. Good luck finding a real deal 327 4-speed option SS that retains original equipment not to mention unrestored and in the condition this car is in if you don't understand that. They are just not around. Those that are restored wish they could be original again. Guys that have restored them wouldn't have if they started with one in this condition. All of the black under the hood is 100% original. Price original hardware and stainless on one of these and you'll get the idea. You Nova guys understand it well.
     The billet aluminum wheels and tires are new. Original wheels, tires and SS spinner hubcaps are included.
     I spent Labor Day week-end looking at six of these. One with 20k documented miles which was the only true unrestored one of the bunch that wasn't in near the condition as this one. Not even close. Only two of the cars I visited had documentation to prove legitimacy. One was a 6 cylinder so it doesn't count really except the guy was firm at 35k. None of the 327 cars were true factory red although two had color changes made red. Each of them had rust issues or underwent rust repairs. None retained all original hardware. Prices ranged from 35 to 67k. Thus, the guys at TLC were proven correct as noted above and I appreciate their input. 
     This is not a forced sale. Have title in hand. I'd like to sell but not a must. It basically pays to own it. Cars like this only increase in value. If it doesn't sell before Spring I'll take to a super Chevy show or vacation with it at Pigeon Forge Swap Meet. But I figure Ebay is a great and convenient forum. If your looking for a real deal SS to make the trailered car guys ill, this is one that will. The price is 55k or best offer. Please, serious inquiries only. Thanks for looking.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
