1946 Chevy Pickup Streetrod v8 Auto This frame off restored 1946 Chevy Pickup sits on a custom square tube frame, front to back, designed to make it light and fast as well as sit low. Powered by a completely rebuilt/bored out, FUEL EFFICIENT, computer controlled 5.0 TBI GM V8 305 SBC (with horses more like a 350 now after the rebuild, with proper balancer even) it sends 200+ horsepower to the rear wheels with a silky smooth shifting 700r4 4 speed automatic + overdrive transmission. At 50MPH, the RPMs run at 1500, so that should give you an idea of the high speed gearing this truck offers. It is a great cruiser,very very quick also, as can be seen in Video #1, below (Also note that the videos will play in 360p clarity by default, small frame, but you can select at bottom right of video window if you want to see it in full screen, and up to 1080p HD clarity!) It will smoke most compact cars on the road, and has no problems jumping on the freeway nice and fast, and stops on a dime with feather light foot pedal action due to having four wheel power disk brakes. Once key is turned to on, and brake is depressed, it roars to life at the push of an illuminated low voltage modern push start button, mounted just below the stereo, in the vertical section of the center console. The headlight switch, in parklight mode, not only activates running lights and licence plate illumination in back, but also turns on a set of small LED lights on the front/top of grill guard, which can be spun around even to shine forward, but set by default backward to illuminate the chrome grill. These little lights go off once headlights are turned on. The truck has left and right blinkers for safety, in front, and in back, so there is no problem telling other drivers of your intentions. The column offers tilt, so once inside you can adjust to a comfortable ride height to see all gauges clearly. This truck has an amazing stereo, consisting of 450w amp, pushing a 10" Sony sub, all installed under the seat, and dual 6x9s mounted on either side of center console. There is a separate kill switch for the sub and amp, so if you prefer no loud pounding noise when the radio is playing, you can simply shut it all off separate of the stereo itself. When you open the door on this truck, the foot well areas illuminate, so getting inside if it's dark isn't a guess on where your feet should go, and it is fitted with some very bright map lights inside the rear view mirror, which shine down, so they don't blind you whatsoever when driving in the dark. The windshield fits perfectly with no air gaps around the edges which is nice because I've seen in alot of these trucks with original windows, they just don't fit right. Window crank also works great, so if you want to crank out the front window, one can. Not only does this truck offer GPS navigation through the stereo head unit, it also has hands free phone, iPod hookup, mp3 audio, memory card, internal hard drive so you can upload your favorite playlist via usb cable, and a backup camera system which enables you to see what's going on behind the truck as you back up. One feature it also has, which I've not seen on many hot rods, is a switch on dash which if engaged, turns on a nice bright LED light inside the engine bay on upper firewall. Great for inspecting engine, or just showing it at night! LED lights pull very minimal power off the battery. The speedometer and tach are electric, however the speedometer sending unit is satellite actuated, so it lags about one second behind reality, but works accurately otherwise, and represents every movement you make, just about one second behind real time. There is a new 12v cigarette lighter outlet also on dash, so you can have your iPod/iPhone or any other phone charging as you go. And let's not mention that it is fitted with a nice cup holder, so you can take a drink along with you without fear of spilling it everywhere. The seats are fully adjustable, the bases move foreword and back, and the backs also can be adjusted to get the lean you want, and the truck has new two point seat belts for safety, L and R. Here is a more complete list of details on what this truck includes: 1. Rebuilt SBC 305 TBI engine, dressed out in new billet finned oil pan, billed finned valve covers, billet finned air intake and billet breathers 2. Reprogramed computer ECU installed, to eliminate VATS Column lockout program and new All in One wiring harness for engine swap installed. 3. 700r4 4 speed trans w overdrive and balanced drive line installed with new front/back u joints and clasp kits.

You can then dial out using the stereo, answer calls, talk through the radio and hear the phone convo through the trucks sound system 15. iPod hookup 16.

I didn't have a parking brake lever installed, due to the truck having park function which holds it down even on a decent slope, but it would be easy to add parking lever, since all parking cables to it, are included with the truck. 22. Re-manufactured GM power brake booster with new disk/disk proportioning valve. 23. New Mustang II power steering rack, new high and low power steering pressure pump lines and fittings. 24. New Champion radiator, with trans cooling at bottom, attached to transmission. 25.

Also, the fan is wired to keep running, even when you shut off the vehicle and exit, until the temps lower a bit. 26. A pair of new #42441 Super 40 Series Flowmasters with new mid length pipes, make this truck sound mean, not too loud inside, but plenty scary sounding from the outside. 27. Mustang II front suspension, with new adjustable QA-1 Aluma Matic coil over shocks with new Carerra 300lb springs on each side 28. New set of QA-1 Aluma Matic adjustable coil over shocks in back 29.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt CarPlay video, Tesla Supercharger importance
Fri, Feb 5 2016A video demonstrates Apple CarPlay on the touch display in the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. The Volt's eight-inch (bigger than an iPad Mini) capacitive display is capable of putting Siri and your iPhone apps and right at your fingertips. It's "the best CarPlay display I've seen," says the user in the video. In case you're not in the market for a new Volt, 9to5Mac offers some of its favorite aftermarket CarPlay screens. See the video above, and read more at 9to5Mac. A single Supercharger can make a big difference in the life of a Tesla owner. Teslarati's Electric Jen talks about purchasing a Model S, being assured by both Tesla employees and the map of planned Supercharger sites that one would be built along an important route for her. With the construction being pushed back, it made visiting family tricky. "As if owning such a grand car isn't embarrassing enough, asking for a ride to drop off and pick up said car because you can't make it home without charging really made me feel awkward," she says. "You see, one single charging location can mean the world to some people," Jen adds. Read the whole article at Teslarati. Tesla once had considered creating mobile range extender trailers for the Model S. Elon Musk touched upon the abandoned idea during his visit to Paris. While Tesla ultimately dismissed the concept, Nomadic Power has taken the opportunity to hitch their product onto the Tesla brand. "We are delighted, that Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk is thinking about a concept like ours for even more extending the range of the Tesla models," says Nomadic Power's CEO Manfred Baumgaertner. He adds, "This confirms our approach to build a long distance mobility provider for all electric vehicles on the market." If you say so, Baumgaertner.

When the batteries have degraded to the point that they're no longer suitable for use on the road, they still have a significant capacity that can be used for other purposes. Still useful for stationary storage, they can be used to support charging sites in order to allow for faster charging. The stationary batteries can charge slowly at the site, but then offer up the juice in a hurry when it's needed for a vehicle. Read more from Renault.
Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept
Sat, Nov 22 2014"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
