The truck started as Z56 Police Pursuit Package Tahoe. If you google Z56 Tahoe you will see this was the best stock chassis to start with, HD brakes, HD suspension, lower ride height, and 2WD are some of the factory Z56 features.
On the mechanical side, I tossed the factory iron block 5.3L and replaced it with a Corvette LS1 5.7 Aluminum short block with factory flat top pistons, New Clevite Bearings, ARP Rod Bolts, 241 Heads with Partriot Gold Double Springs, GM MLS Head Gasket, Comp Cams custom grind 230/232 .601 lift cam, Melling LS6 High Flow Oil Pump, Cloyes LS2 Timing Set, All new GM factory replacement gaskets from the dealer. The engine is at about 10:1 compression, tuned for 93 pump gas, and runs great and makes about 450-500HP crank, soon to be higher with a little more tuning.
Exhaust starts with polished Stainless OBX Long Tube Headers to V-Band clamps connecting it to a full Stainless 3in true dual over the axel out the rear to polished Stainless SLP 4in tips running through Stainless Magnaflow straight through mufflers and a DynoMax Stainless Cross-Flow Muffler (X-Pipe). This exhaust was all done right, mandrel bends, all stainless hardware and stainless wire was used for welding. This will last forever and sounds amazing, nice rumble down low that wakes up when you get on it.
The rear end was replaced with 4:10 gears and an Eaton posi unit, Installed by a professional and is what Eaton calls their "Bullet-Proof" rear end.
The Transmission was rebuilt. It shifts awesome, nice and firm and does not slip at all. Should last for many years and the transmission computer was tuned along with everything else to handle the added power.
The brakes were all just replaced with ceramic pads all the way around and new calipers in the front. This truck does have the Heavy Duty braking package and stops with lots of power.
Starting front to back with the SS front bumper, then the SS grills, next the body color header panel, then the clear corner lenses, and hide-away fog lights. I added the HID 8000K headlights, they are in proper projector housings with proper cut-offs that will light up the road and not blind oncoming traffic. Next was to shave any body molding, clear the roof, and color match the door handles. I also ceramic painted the calipers and added Chevrolet high temp caliper decals. The look of this truck is 2nd to none and a real eye catcher. 1 of a kind and receive complements all the time.

Now for the "Good News/Bad News" section...
The Good:...
You have a truck with a newer engine, lots of power that is going to last a really long time because it has all now quality parts. Transmission has been rebuilt and tuned for the power, so it will last for many years to come. The rear end internals are all brand new too and with performance parts. The entire drivetrain is rebuilt or new and is ready for years and years of long term reliable service. The truck is still a 2006 and is pretty new. I have used "Rust Proofing" on the underside of the truck, and it is mostly rust free although it is a Buffalo vehicle and rust proofing last 2yrs at best here, I recommend doing it again next winter if it is something you care to do. The truck has never had a trailer hitch and never been used for towing or heavy loads. I have the title clean and clear in hand with no leins. I have almost $6K in receipts for most of the work and parts that have been put on this truck. The brakes are all new within the past month, and the carpet is brand new.
The Bad:....
Minor crack in the windsheild up above the rear view mirror. The front bumper is "a good 10 footer" it has at this point more touch-up paint on it than actual paint (not really that much, but a lot). The paint all around has some scratches. The heated seats are not yet wired, I have not had the time since I put the new seats in. The rear wiper does not work, and I never cared to figure out why because I don't use it anyway. The truck has 165K miles on it, I know it's high for the year, but you would never guess it looking at it, and the drivetrain has low miles on it now. Will need at least the idler arm and pitman arm replaced before it will pass inspection.
Car is being sold as-is but please do not hesitate to ask me any questions. I Can take additional pictures for interested parties if needed but the pictures of it already posted make a pretty good representation of the condition. I respond the fastest that I am able to

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.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
