1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Ss 454 Clone Pro Touring - Professionally Built on 2040-cars
Cape Coral, Florida, United States

1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS clone.
This is a very high end professionally built car. The car was completely torn down to the very last nut and bolt in 2009 and restored on a rotisserie. At this point, there is just over $73,000 in REAL cash money in this build. That doesn't included the cost of the car to start with. 454 that is basically a crate motor with under 10,000 miles on it. We estimate about 400 horsepower, give or take of course. MSD ignition system. Aluminum radiator. Brand new professionally built 700r4 transmission, with the additional electric lock out switch that acts as somewhat of an extra highway gear. 2300 Corvette stall converter that will allow the car to chirp the tires in three gears without even trying. The car really gets up and gets out of it's own way in a hurry...but is really well mannered on the highway. 12 bolt posi rear. Four wheel disc brakes Airpod Air Ride system all the way around, with three set positions and it is fully adjustable. The car will just about lay frame (it lays on the sway bar). See the pictures. There is well over $6,000 in just this system alone, maybe $7,000. All tubular A-arms and suspension parts. All the chrome and brightwork is new. All the lights, turn signals, etc. work. Brand new Summitomo tires with under 50 miles on them on beautiful 18" chrome 5 spoke rims. The tires were just under $1,000. The interior was all brand new at the build. If you are a taller driver, I will included a like new pair of Mercedes black electric bucket seats that the owner had in the car before. He was 6'3" tall and found that he needed the seat to be lower and go farther back. Those seats alone were $1,000 for the pair. The frame is completely boxed, and it was done by a professional chassis builder. The quality is unmatched. It was built to handle up to 1,000 horsepower. The entire bottom side of the car is painted with the same paint used on the top of the car. See the pictures: it's stunning. Headers with 3" exhaust with newer Magnaflow mufflers, and it runs all the way to the back. Dual electric fans. All billet pump and pulley system on the front of the motor. There IS an AC pump, but the car does NOT have AC. However, the shop that built the car will install it for you for $2,000, and my husband will facilitate that work for the buyer if he so chooses before the car is picked up. Dual electric fans. Even in the hot 90+ degree Florida summer days, the car never ever gets hot. Power steering. Power brakes. New CD stereo with remote. Unit is mounted and hidden in the glove box. Engine compartment is painted just like the top of the car as well. Stunning. See the pictures. Electric fuel pump. Car starts right up every time. Trunk mounted Red Top battery AND an manual power shut off in trunk as well. See the pictures. Runs on pump gas. Lots of new glass at build. At night, it's hard to tell there is glass. It's THAT clear. Paintwork was done by probably the best painter in all of South Florida. It is a late model Mercedes silver with a late model Mazda (I think) electric blue. The pinstripes between the two colors are tape, thus easily changed if the owner wants to. Doors open and close like a new car. So does the trunk. Car is rust free and excellent. Includes a custom made $200 California cover. Car is stored indoors right next to grandpas mini-van. ...and the list goes on and on and on. Known issues with car: 1) Speedometer does not work since the 700r4 trans install and we have not looked into why 2) Dash clock does not work. 3) The aftermarket horn could be louder. There may be and adjustment for that. 4) There is a tiny tiny bit of paint bubbling at the very rear corner of the passenger door. I saw it for the first time yesterday when it was up on a lift and I could see under the lip eye-to-eye. If I didn't mention, you would probably never see it. 5) Headers are a little banged up on the bottom due to forgetting to raise the air ride system up from the lowest setting before moving the car. This is a high-end, no excuses, pro touring car that you could easily fly in and drive home without worry. We are 20 minutes from RSW International Airport, and someone will pick you up if you would like to do that. If you are an out of state or out of the country buyer, I encourage you to come see it OR hire an inspector to look the car over if need be. There is nothing to hide, and we have no problem with a qualified professional inspection. If you need a recommendation, let me know and we will get you one. My husband has experience with transport and international exporting, and he would be happy to help with those details if the buyer needs (at buyers expense, of course). I do not own this car. I am just listing it for the owners. If you have any other questions, just email me your question and/or phone number and I will have them call you back with the answers. Paypal will NOT be accepted for this transaction. CASH or wire transfer is preferred. Here is a short video of the car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOXEy84kWGw |

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
