Up for auction (OR MUSCLE CAR TRADES) is an attention grabbing 1932 Chevrolet Coupe Rat Rod. Let me begin by saying this is not a car for a kid or amateur, it will take some getting familiar with to operate this machine. Also, this is not a RUST FREE show car, it's about as rat as you can get for a rat rod. Its one hell of a build that looks and performs great!

This car is built on a 135" wheelbase and has a 6 " chop on an all steel body on a custom built frame.  This car has no pedals, it is totally controlled through hand controls which frees up space for your feet and legs.  It takes a little getting used to but 10 miles of driving and it's almost second nature.  If you are uncomfortable with this set up it wouldn't take much to convert it back to foot pedals. Also if you think you may be uncomfortable with this set up please don't bid or buy it.    

The drivetrain is a 1970's Chevy C10 250 6 Cylinder engine with a healthy cam. It all has approx. 28,000 miles.  It runs on 6 , YES 6 Synchronized 34mm Mikuni Snowmobile Carbs with water injection ( the bottle of J.D.!!) The transmission is out of a 1980"s CHEVY K30 Turbo 400 transmission (w/passing gear - button built into throttle control) 

Also used on the build is a 53' Mercury front drum brakes,  Chevy S-10 posi spool rear end,  Honda CRX front springs and  4 BRAND NEW TIRES!!!! - 16's in the front on ford spokes, 15's in the rear vacuum brakes -  with front chrome holding tank ( fire extinguisher tank) stops like a semi!!! HEAT!! - heater core from a 740 BMW ALL NEW WIRING - with 6 panel fuse block NEW belts, plugs, cap , rotor, wires, radiator (large aluminum that runs at 160 degrees constantly), thermostat, water pump, flex fan, front and rear shocks, steering stabilizer, fuel tank sending unit, new gauge pack all new switches - headlights are an old lamp pull chain!! It has a functional AM/FM/AUX player in the "glove box"

The car has adjustable timing (black lever on dash) which allows you to advance or retard the timing.  Its currently running well but could use a little fine tuning to run perfectly.  I am very confident in the braking system which is worth nothing, it really stops well.  The red handle on the steering wheel loosens up to allow quick and easy removal of the cut away steering wheel.  The speedo or odometer do not work but all other gauges are functional and the lights do work.

For lighting it has KC daylighters as driving lights, AIRCRAFT L.E.D. indicator lights, turn signals postal jeep front axle with king pins postal jeep steering box postal jeep master cylinder 1940's boat throttle used as gear shifter stainless boat prop shaft from left to right for all linkages interior for all hand controls - brake and throttle with quick release steering wheel THE CAR COMES WITH A BILL OF SALE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE VIN VERIFICATION , which in NY (the toughest state around with DMV ) accepts with no problem to register.  There shouldn't be any issue getting this car titled in any state.

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?

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out

Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
