1987 Monte Carlo SS Aero Coupe. I started out with a clean 1 owner 97,000 mile, no hit, no rust vehicle out of central Oregon. We installed Global West coil over front suspension along with "B" body spindles with 12" Wilwood slotted and drilled rotors with red powder coated 2 piston calipers. In the rear we hung a brand new Moser 12 bolt diff with Posi unit and 3:73 gearing to that we attached 12 " Willwood red powder coated calipers with slotted and drilled rotors. This all sits on 2" lowering Global West springs with Edelbrock shocks And Global West rear adjustable control arms upper and lower with Global West front and rear anti sway bars. The engine is from a 2006 GTO with 2500 miles that was a roll over along with the 4L60E transmission and wire harness; and computers. Prior to install the GM "Hot Cam" was installed along with the 2 bolt oil pump pick up retainer and the "GM swap" oil pan. The exhaust starts with full length 4 tube 2" headers to a all new 2.5 exhaust. We had the computer dyno tuned by CBM in Rancho cucamonga and we saw 411 rear wheel HP before the tires broke loose! In tank fuel pump.
The body was stripped to bare metal block primered, block sanded and finished with 3 coats of black base and 4 coats of clear. All window wiskers, door & trunk seals replaced, along with all new door handles and exterior locks.
Wheels 5 stoke "black chrome" 17 inchers 7 in. wide front, 8 in. in the rear with 235r60X17 front and 255R60X17 rears
Interior is a duplicate to the original factory pattern except it is done in "Pleather" New carpet and head liner.
Dash guages were redone with white face electric 160 MPH speed and 8k Tach.
Vehicle has 250 miles since completed. Won best 80"s in its first and only show! Boy it sure got alot of attention!

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.

Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
