A parking lot is a parking lot is a parking lot—unless it’s the Summit Racing parking lot. On any given day or time, the lot outside a Summit Racing store can turn into an impromptu mini car show, depending on who’s stopped by the store. Each Wednesday, we’ll share our parking lot find of the week—another benefit of being Powered by Summit Racing Equipment.
By 1972, the muscle car era was on the decline in America. High performance vehicles would soon be replaced with gas-sipping, emissions-friendly cars and smaller displacement engines, but not before Mopar E-bodies and GM A-bodies would have a little more time in the sun.
The GM X-body platform also gave us the third-generation Chevrolet Nova.
The 1972 Chevrolet Nova, which shared its body style with the less popular Pontiac Ventura, Oldsmobile Omega, and Buick Apollo X-bodies, was one of the highest-selling versions of the Nova ever. Judging by the amount of ’72 Novas we see at car shows, it remains one of the more popular GM classics of all time, too. Well—perhaps next to the 1985 Nova.
What do you think of this ’72 Nova we recently spotted at Summit Racing’s world headquarters?
Love it but the top, I had a brand new, white with red, white and blue racing stripes right out of the show case.
Vintage cars are very expensive…maybe you will sell it? how to sell? The first thing you have to do is select a site. Sites such as CarsDirect.com,
AutoTrader.com, and Cars.com (among others) are like online classified ads. Or choose an online auto auction site, like eBay or Repokar.com.
These sites make listing your car quick and painless. You’ll
need to know your vehicle’s basic information: the make, model year, mileage, and condition. Then write a pithy description of the car. Some sites also let you add extra, eye-catching features to your ad, for an extra fee.
A picture is worth a thousand words, which equals dollars in this game. Ads with photos get way more attention than those without.
How long do you need to run the ad? Until the car sells, of course. Some sites allow you to run it until the car sells. Other sites will refund your money if your car hasn’t sold within a specified time.
After you finish your ad, it can be online in as little as 10 minutes.
