1955 Chevy Chevrolet Big Block Gasser Bbc Two Lane Blacktop on 2040-cars
United States
|
The only way to describe this car is two lane black top. This was always a dream of mine to build a car like this. A friend of mine had one in high school and I always dreamed about having one of my own. We just finished the project this last year.Now,because of a tax problem I have to sell it. We worked hard to decide the stance amd look of the car. The car drives and performs extremely well. Everything from the steering box to the front end has all been completely rebuilt. The motor is a stroked 454 fresh out of the machine shop I think the displacement came to 505. A little while back, Hotrod Magazine did a feature on stroking the 454. It has real street able horse power and lots of low end torque. It's way snotty and a blast to drive. My goal was to build street worthy car that was dependable with lots of horsepower. A body shop friend of mine sanded to bare metal and brought the car all the way up the paint is a metallic gray and is very a nice is not a 10 but a solid 8. Is has a close ratio Muscie 4 speed completely rebuilt along with the entire clutch and all new parts. The rear end is a gm 12 bolt posi traction 370 gears new. Still burn out like crazy and won't keep the RPMs up. I have a bunch of kids and my wife insisted that I put air conditioning in the car. So I bought the whole kit new with an entire core support and new fancy radiator from vintage air. All the good stuff. It's still needs to be worked a little but all new system and controls are here. The best part of the car is it is a real 150 not a bel air or a 210. Has the block off radio. I put the stereo in the glove box with an iPod hook up hidden so it still has the look. The interior is really bitchin' it's made from a metallic big metal flake called Polaris so it has the old school look. Front seats are really cool chevelle seats I think with the 64 chrome sides. New rubber and wheels all around Really nice. Battery is in the trunk. Super dependable drive any where turn key. We'll there you have it my dream car that I hope finds a new home that will love and enjoy it like our family has. This is a great deal.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.
Chevy confirms 2016 Camaro will have wheels, brakes
Thu, Apr 9 2015Good news, everyone! Chevrolet has issued yet another round of teaser images and information about the sixth-generation Camaro, set to debut in Detroit on May 16. This time around, Chevy's teaser images confirm that the new car will not only have wheels and tires (Goodyear Eagle F1s, no less), but brakes as well. On top of that, we now know that the new Camaro will be 28-percent stiffer than the outgoing model. "The more rigid body structure allowed the engineers to more precisely calibrate the steering and suspension systems because they didn't have to compensate for chassis flex. The lighter structure also enabled the size and mass of elements such as the wheels, tires and brakes to be scaled accordingly," GM said in a press release, which you can read below. We've already learned that the new coupe will be 200 pounds lighter than its predecessor, has a bunch of unique parts, and according to GM's Mark Reuss, will outperform the Ford Mustang in every way. Now, it's only a matter of time before we see the sixth-gen Camaro, but surely not before Chevy issues even more teasers and information.

The structural modeling led to the Gen 6 Camaro being 28 percent stiffer than the current model. "The modeling abilities of computer aided engineering are advancing at incredible rates," said Jim Karlavage, Camaro program engineering manager. "Today, we can accurately model opportunities to add torsional strength without adding unnecessary mass. The result is a lighter, stiffer structure that benefits every aspect of the driving experience." The more rigid body structure allowed the engineers to more precisely calibrate the steering and suspension systems because they didn't have to compensate for chassis flex. The lighter structure also enabled the size and mass of elements such as the wheels, tires and brakes to be scaled accordingly. "The structural weight savings are compounded by opportunities to reduce un-sprung weight," said Karlavage.
