1962 Chevy Ii Drag Car on 2040-cars
Star, Idaho, United States
You are bidding on a 1962 Chevy II drag car which could easily be made street legal although it would be quite scary. The all original steel body is laser straight. The quarter panels have been sectioned to accommodate the slicks while keeping the axle centered in the wheel opening. The power is supplied by a 436 small block (dyno says crowding 700 hp) outfitted with Brodix heads, Jesel shaft rockers, Comp cam, Edlebrock super victor and a 1050 Dominator. A JW glide w/ultra case and straight cut gears sends the power down to a narrowed Ford 9". Current ring and pinion is 4.88 to keep the times at 10 flat. A 4.56 or 4.30 rear gear drops the times into the low to mid 9's. The 4 link rear suspension, full MSD ignition, coated Lemons headers, B&M shifter, Pro-Comp gauges and custom 8" Continental converter (5800 stall) complete the package. The front end has double a-arms, coil overs, rack and pinion and big disc brakes. On the rear, once again disc brakes, two sets of rear tires included 12" Goodyear slicks and 14.50 M/T streets both mounted. For weight reduction the hood and trunk are fiberglass however the original metal parts are on sight and are included. There is a clear clean title. The car has a full cage NHRA certified to 8.50 with swing out driver's and passenger side bars. There is a delay box (never used) included for those who prefer to run the super pro classes. Much, much more included Also available is a 24' Pace American dual axle enclosed trailer. This can be incorporated as a package and or delivery deal. However this auction is for the car only and further discussion about the trailer can be discussed with the winning bidder.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit
Mon, 04 Mar 2013We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
