1955 Chevrolet Gasser, 1958 Apache front axle with disc Brakes, original 10 bolt rear end with posi-trac spool. I boxed the front frame in and added the straight axle moving the front wheels forward 2 inches, cut firewall to make room for the big block chevy 454 with Mild R.V. cam, Edelbrock intake and Edelbrock 650 carb. Aluminum big block radiator to keep it cool from Speedway and they aren't cheap. Cheater slicks and drag front tires. It has an Impala bench seat in it with a roll cage. Roll cage is bolted to body NOT FRAME. I've owned this car for about 8 years and have loved every minute of it. It's a show winner every time, people love it and a few people around here have started building gassers because of this car. I've never had it on the strip but it runs great with a strong motor. I snapped the U joints in it a while back and had a heavy duty driveline built with beefier U joints, haven't had a problem since. I love the car and hate to see it go but I've owned it long enough and I'm ready to start working on something else. The Rust Pearl paint is from HOTROD FLATZ and it shows the pearl really well in the sun. The scoop came from a good friend of mine who had it hanging in his garage for years, hand painted naked lady on it originally done in the 70's and I love it so I made sure not to paint over it. The lettering on the fenders was painted by hand in Boise Idaho by a local sign painter who has been doing signs and windows for around 30 years, he goes by the name Papa Joe Dawson, formerly from the Bay Area of California. My wife and I had our wedding photos taken with this car and they turned out great. Bid high, it's worth it.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
