Here we go. The wife says I have too many toys, so I am listing my beloved Chevelle SS. This beautiful car was a 2 year, full, ground up restoration completed in 2010 and has under 3,000 miles on her. I have owned many nice, classic muscle cars over the years and this is truly the nicest and best driving classic I have seen in a good while. I am the second owner since the restoration. The car is a clone and was done perfectly as such. Now for the goodies. Most of the car was restored with brand new parts. That is to say that most of the car is new even though it's a 1970 muscle car. What parts are not new were reconditioned or rebuilt. The overall condition of the car is a 9.5 with the body being a 10 and the paint at a 9.0. The body is flawless and there isn't a speck of rust anywhere on this car. 100% rust free. It has new fenders, new quarter panels, new floor pan, new hood, new trunk deck lid, new bumpers, new front windshield, and new side view mirrors. All of the trim pieces look like new. It's just a spectacular car that would win almost any local car shows. Paint has been clear coated as well. This car needs absolutely nothing. Power steering and power assist brakes, and air conditioning.
The interior is a solid 9 out of 10 as well. Most of the interior is also new with the exception of some original pieces like the instrument panel, column shift and blinker control. Everything on the car works, including the horns. It even has the original AM/FM radio 8 track player. I don't know if the 8 track player works because I don't have any 8 track tapes. New seats, new headliner, new carpet, new door panels. The seat belts are originals. The steering wheel is not new, but it is an SS wheel. The dash pad is new.
The suspension is restored to stock. New springs, new shocks, new bushings, tie rods and ball joints. It drives like a real dream. Inside the car it's the most comfortable and quiet muscle car I have ever driven. A real pleasure to cruise in and drive. Inside the car you won't hear a single sound, like an annoying squeak or rattle sound. That's because this car was built right.
The drive train is also spectacular. A big block, 454 cubic inch engine drives this sexy car with a Turbo Hydomatic 350 transmission and 4:11 gears in the 10 bolt rear end. It has way more power than anyone would ever need on the street. The rear end was installed with an Eaton posi traction unit. It's not a one legger. It has new tires and wheels. The tires are BFG Radial TA, P275R60/15 in back and P245R60/15 in front. The wheels are American Racing brand wheels.
The 454 was balanced and blue printed and has .030 forged JE pistons, 9.5:1 compression ratio, big GM rods and a GM steel crankshaft. Indexed crankshaft .010, which is a very nice feature. Indexing is part of the blueprint process and is very important so that compression, because of deck height variation due to different stroke between rod journals, can change compression ratios between cylinders. Also swing (degrees apart between rod journals) will change the relationship between the camshaft and crankshaft. If you want more strength and longevity from your engine this is a must. The engine is kept cool with a 4 core radiator and a clutch fan with a proper shroud. It never overheats.
The intake manifold is a new Edelbrock, Performer Air-gap 2 and on top sits a new Edelbrock 750 CFM carburetor. Melling oil pump installed. Hydraulic roller, Crane cam and Isky hydraulic lifters in the top end. Gross lift of the cam is .530/.540. GM oval port heads 049 with stainless steel valves. Crane valve springs and retainers and bronze valve guides. The exhaust has Hooker long tube headers with a 3" exhaust all the way to the tips. The exhaust pipes are aluminized. It even has some open exhaust cut-outs welded into the pipe behind the headers. The ignition system starts the car easily even in cold weather and comes with an HEI distributor and MSD spark plug wires. The car will not need any tuning. It's not running fat or lean and never produces any smoke at all. Oh, and the gas tank is new as well. There is so much awesome stuff that it's kind of hard to remember it all.
Send me your email address and I will send you a link to watch two videos I have showing the car better than still photos can and allowing you the opportunity to hear the car's engine running. I also have many more pictures available than what I was able to post here. A tastefully done and lightly resto-modded car. Whoever wins this car will not be disappointed at all. She's a real beauty and a pleasure to drive. Bid hard and prosper.

The transmission is a TH400 (Turbo Hydromatic 400) and not the 350. I must of had a brain fart when I typed 350.

Chevy Silverado Midnight Edition, Custom ready to stand out in pickup line
Thu, Feb 12 2015Chevrolet spent its Chicago Auto Show introducing a pair of fullsize pickups that promise image-conscious buyers a truck experience that goes beyond the standard range, with the murdered-out Midnight Edition and the um, not murdered-out, Custom. Let's start with the Custom, which adds 20-inch alloys, as well as chrome bumpers, mirror caps and door handles to the Silverado LS. Available in both V6 and V8 varieties, and with the customer's choice of two- or four-wheel drive, the Silverado Custom is the decidedly mellower example of Chevy's special edition styling. The Midnight Edition, meanwhile, throws subtlety out the window with a menacing set of visual upgrades. Based on the Z71, the Midnight adds 18-inch wheels, a spray-in bedliner and unique Z71 and Bowtie badges, all in black, of course. The front and rear bumpers, headlamp bezels, tow hooks, mirror caps and door handles, are also finished in the stealthy shade. Check out our live images of both special edition trucks, and let us know what you think down in Comments.

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter
Thu, May 14 2015Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.
