1988 Fiero Coupe With 350 Chevy Motor on 2040-cars

Year:1988 Mileage:128975

Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States

Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States

 This is the perfect little sports car that is as quick as most Super Cars but much less expensive. The motor is a professionally built 357 cubic inch Chevy with Aluminum Vortec heads and Holley carburetor on a Edelbrock Performer manifold. Valve action is by hydraulic roller cam from CompCams (dimensions on request) and roller rockers. This motor has less than 300 miles since built.  Exhaust is custom built and high temperature barrier coated.  2 individual banks are routed to mufflers with SuperTrapp tunable ends. Transmission is a modified 4T60E electric 4 speed overdrive controlled by a PSC programmable module. Transmission also has less than 300 miles since built.  Just about all facets of transmission control are changeable- including addition of paddle/button shifting. The car rides on aftermarket Corvette look alike 17" wheels with high performance tires.  The tires have been sitting for a while and probably need to be changed. Lowering springs in the front and Coil Overs in the rear add to the stance.  The air conditioner runs very cold and is charged with Hot Shot which replaces R12. Battery has been moved to the front and is a new Optima Red Top.  Dash gauges are custom flame jobs and fascias are refinished in crinkle. A larger brake booster has been installed. New dew wipes are being installed at this time. Vents have been installed in hood to vent trapped air at speed.  A carbon fiber cover has been added to the rear lid to allow for carb clearance. The car has the minor blemishes you find on cars that are driven but there are no major items.
  This car drives extremely well in normal mode but is instantly transformed to 'animal' status with the addition more throttle.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

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.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
