1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu 350 on 2040-cars
Bristol, Pennsylvania, United States
Here is what I know about this Chevelle:
Seems to be a solid car. A quick glance does not reveal any prior damage or rust, however I can not guarantee
that statement, since this was the condition when my parents bought the Chevelle many years ago. You are advised
to inspect yourself. No significant rust on trunk floor (see pictures) and nothing evident in quarter panels or
rockers. Once again, please inspect yourself or have your mechanic inspect. It's a 48 year old car!
Paint is very, very nice, but not an original color to the best of my knowledge. It seems to be a Royal Plum
color which would have been correct on Chevelles from the late 60's, but not 1971. All inside panels, door jams,
etc., were repainted correctly, so it's tough to tell it has been repainted. It's a sharp color and as the pictures
indicate, has quite a glossy shine!
Non-original parts are: Carburetor (I think, not sure on carb), air cleaner, Cragar S/S rims, valve covers,
stereo (additional speakers have also been installed in rear), stainless steel dual exhausts with glass packs. All
of these non-original additions were on the car when my parents bought it, so we have none of the original parts.
'Not certain if this is a matching number engine. If you are curious, we will try to get a picture of the engine
serial number. Passenger seat has a tear in bottom cushion with black tape covering the tear. Can be seen in
picture.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
