Chevelle 1970 Big Block 454 Restomod 3 Speed Auto W/ Cool Air on 2040-cars
Rockville, Maryland, United States
This 1970 Big Block 454 RestoMod has had a tremendous
overhaul done to it and has been garage kept in a temperature regulated
garage. The recent restoration was completed January, 2013. As soon
as the car was delivered, the entire interior was stripped. All new
floors were welded throughout the vehicle along with a complete new
undercoat. The car was then lined with custom cut Dynamat material
throughout all the floors, doors and trunk. Custom fabricated shoulder
seatbelts were installed in the front and rear of the car. Then, the
seats all received new cushion and a special paint was applied. The
wiring was redone where needed. A new steering crank shaft was installed
along with a 1970 SS steering wheel. The AC unit was checked and fully
functioning. A new Retro classic style head unit was installed along with
2, 4x6 JBL speakers as well as 2, 6x9 JBL speakers in the rear. 2 Amps with
a 10” subwoofer were custom fit in the trunk along with all wiring. New
door handles and window crank shafts were installed as was the rear deck
meshing. The 3 speed shifter was rewired along with all wiring to front
and rear lights as well as reverse lights. The interior was then
reassembled with updated headliner, door panels and carpet. It was then
onto adding 4 disc brakes, shocks and springs. An air-ride suspension was
installed along with an adaptor in the trunk to raise or lower the suspension.
An entire new fuel line from front to back was assembled as was a new rear
axle, front and rear suspension with a Posi differential. The chrome,
large off-set AmericanRacing rims were installed on the vehicle. Inside
the engine, the engine was tested, everything was properly aligned, and a new
battery and battery wiring was complete. All new cabeling with heat wraps
were installed for protection from this massive engine. Additionally, a
new, large, chrome alternator was installed to handle the power this car
outputs. The horn was customized with an Dixie trumpet air horn inside the
front grill. All bulbs outside the Chevelle were replaced as was the
front hood latch. The final step besides the MasterFlo duel exhaust, was
to add an Electronic Muffler Bypass, or cutout with an electronic switch.
This allow you to not only increase the air outflow but sound from this beast
of an engine. Windows and window trim was tested and resealed where
necessary. Many other little tweaks were also done along the way.
The engine and paint were complete prior to me purchasing the car however
I have kept it garage kept and fully washed and waxed at all times. If
you are looking for an amazing on the frame restauration where no expense was
spared on updating a 1970 Chevelle Big Block 454 with a 3 speed 400 Trany, then
this is the car for you.

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.
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

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.
