You are viewing my 1970 Impala Custom Coupe project. When I purchased the car is was running and driving. After removing the drivetrain and full disassembly, I detached the body from the frame, there was no rust to repair so the frame got the most attention. It was sandblasted then powder coated. The front subframe was notched because the oil pan from the LS1 that was going in it hit the brace. I then replaced all the suspension bushings with new poly urethane and fabricated a rack & pinion steering for it as well. The entire suspension was upgraded to Air RIde Technologies with auto ride height, front control arms, etc and the rear end was overhauled to a 3.73 posi traction. A new old stock fuel tank was purchased as well. The brakes were upgraded to disc all around, with bigger rotors on the front and the rear was just upgraded to rotors. The body mount busing were replaced with new ones as well. For the interior, new body GTO seats was fitted in the front and rear (the rear seats was sectioned so they would sit at the proper height. Bonspeed billet Big Block wheels were fitted in 20 x 9 up front and 22 x 10 in the rear with Verdestein tires. The wheels was sanded, etch primed and painted (they can easily be stripped and polished if you wish).

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
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.
