Hello,
Up for auction is this totally unique 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. This vehicle was a complete frame-off restoration and was completed approximately 3 months ago. The vehicle only has been driven 500 miles since the completion. This is a California car that was in great condition that didn't need any rust repair. The body was straight and solid before the restoration. Below is a list of work/parts that were done:
- Paint is true white pearl metallic will pink pearl metallic racing stripes
- Rebuilt 454 engine, .30 bore, 30/30 crank (steel) - very healthy street motor. Vehicle NEVER overheats in-town, in traffic or on the highway.
- Rebuilt 400 turbo transmission, shift kit, kick-down delete, stall
- All dress-up parts are billet aluminum, not chrome
- MSD 6AL ignition box, pro billet MSD distributor
- Edelbrock 750 CFM carburetor
- Edelbrock Intake
- I DID IT steering column and shafts
- CCP 2 to 1 gearbox
- CCP tubular upper and lower control arms
- Wilwood slotted and drilled rotors and calipers
- Be Cool aluminum 4-core radiator and fan set-up
- 3 in flowmaster stainless steel exhaust
- Flowmaster stainless steel headers
- American Racing heels 20' X 8.5 front, 22' X 9.5 rear
- All new weather stripping, trim, grill, etc. Nothing is used on this vehicle.
- Original steel cowl hood
- Shaved firewall
- Complete air ride system. This is a top on the line system. All wheels can be aired up separately. Vehicle ride like a Cadillac!
- All custom interior including an all fiberglass dash
- Custom stereo system with Rockford fosgate speakers
- And a lot more! The list go's on and on!
I built this vehicle for my, now, ex-wife. Luckily, it wasn't completed before my divorce (haha). The photos do not do this vehicle any justice. You have to see this paint job in person. This vehicle has been to 3 car shows recently and has won 1st place twice and 3rd place once. Awards go with the vehicle. Again, you will not believe how nice this hot rod drives!
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me (Jerry) at 1-563-219-3014. Thank you.

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.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite 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.
