1955 Chevy Chevrolet Big Block Gasser Bbc Two Lane Blacktop on 2040-cars
United States
|
The only way to describe this car is two lane black top. This was always a dream of mine to build a car like this. A friend of mine had one in high school and I always dreamed about having one of my own. We just finished the project this last year.Now,because of a tax problem I have to sell it. We worked hard to decide the stance amd look of the car. The car drives and performs extremely well. Everything from the steering box to the front end has all been completely rebuilt. The motor is a stroked 454 fresh out of the machine shop I think the displacement came to 505. A little while back, Hotrod Magazine did a feature on stroking the 454. It has real street able horse power and lots of low end torque. It's way snotty and a blast to drive. My goal was to build street worthy car that was dependable with lots of horsepower. A body shop friend of mine sanded to bare metal and brought the car all the way up the paint is a metallic gray and is very a nice is not a 10 but a solid 8. Is has a close ratio Muscie 4 speed completely rebuilt along with the entire clutch and all new parts. The rear end is a gm 12 bolt posi traction 370 gears new. Still burn out like crazy and won't keep the RPMs up. I have a bunch of kids and my wife insisted that I put air conditioning in the car. So I bought the whole kit new with an entire core support and new fancy radiator from vintage air. All the good stuff. It's still needs to be worked a little but all new system and controls are here. The best part of the car is it is a real 150 not a bel air or a 210. Has the block off radio. I put the stereo in the glove box with an iPod hook up hidden so it still has the look. The interior is really bitchin' it's made from a metallic big metal flake called Polaris so it has the old school look. Front seats are really cool chevelle seats I think with the 64 chrome sides. New rubber and wheels all around Really nice. Battery is in the trunk. Super dependable drive any where turn key. We'll there you have it my dream car that I hope finds a new home that will love and enjoy it like our family has. This is a great deal.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
