Hello,
Up for auction is this totally unique 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. This vehicle was a complete frame-off restoration and was completed approximately 3 months ago. The vehicle only has been driven 500 miles since the completion. This is a California car that was in great condition that didn't need any rust repair. The body was straight and solid before the restoration. Below is a list of work/parts that were done:
- Paint is true white pearl metallic will pink pearl metallic racing stripes
- Rebuilt 454 engine, .30 bore, 30/30 crank (steel) - very healthy street motor. Vehicle NEVER overheats in-town, in traffic or on the highway.
- Rebuilt 400 turbo transmission, shift kit, kick-down delete, stall
- All dress-up parts are billet aluminum, not chrome
- MSD 6AL ignition box, pro billet MSD distributor
- Edelbrock 750 CFM carburetor
- Edelbrock Intake
- I DID IT steering column and shafts
- CCP 2 to 1 gearbox
- CCP tubular upper and lower control arms
- Wilwood slotted and drilled rotors and calipers
- Be Cool aluminum 4-core radiator and fan set-up
- 3 in flowmaster stainless steel exhaust
- Flowmaster stainless steel headers
- American Racing heels 20' X 8.5 front, 22' X 9.5 rear
- All new weather stripping, trim, grill, etc. Nothing is used on this vehicle.
- Original steel cowl hood
- Shaved firewall
- Complete air ride system. This is a top on the line system. All wheels can be aired up separately. Vehicle ride like a Cadillac!
- All custom interior including an all fiberglass dash
- Custom stereo system with Rockford fosgate speakers
- And a lot more! The list go's on and on!
I built this vehicle for my, now, ex-wife. Luckily, it wasn't completed before my divorce (haha). The photos do not do this vehicle any justice. You have to see this paint job in person. This vehicle has been to 3 car shows recently and has won 1st place twice and 3rd place once. Awards go with the vehicle. Again, you will not believe how nice this hot rod drives!
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me (Jerry) at 1-563-219-3014. Thank you.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
