Im selling my 1975 caprice classic convertable because I am buying a new house and am getting married and all toys must go asap Ihave over $50,000 total invested in this car and it looks better than when it came off the show room floor. Ive added every option and all the toys n gadgets to this one and if was not for us moving n needing the cash to get in our new house trust me this car would not leave my side. Here are some of the things ive done to it, all tubular a-arms in front and all new moog suspention parts,new custom upper and lower grills in front,new hid lights with new lenses and also the orange halo headlights on all 4 lights ( plasma newest n brightest out),full custom lift but not to high because wanted to keep the 28" wheels tucked,new custom dual exaust,completely redone engine and painted it all back original and replaced all gaskets and components on engine (water pump,alternator,fuel pump,belts,hoses,radiator,cam and lifter set and plugs and wires all this year).also put 2000 stall converter in transmision and new front and rear main seals in motor and all trans seals were replaced as well as the trans pan gasket and filter.underneath of car looks as new as it did in 1975 and no rust anywhere on this car at ALL! Now for the good stuff. I put brand new 28" tires and rims on the car which were completely sandblasted all the way down to the bare metal and professionally painted black and orange to match the paint color of the car. I also replaced all body bushings,shocks,coil springs, and all brake shoes,brake pads,brake harwear, drums, rotors,wheel cylinders,all brake lines,and also all new gears (stock) in rear end as well as bump stops.REPLACED THE CHEAPER VINYL TOP WITH A BLACK CLOTH TOP because thought the vinyl one made car look cheap and i didnt build it to save money. I had entire car stripped down and proffetionally painted at josh and dads body shop in trotwood and paint color is called i believe candy orange glow ,it has beuitiful ghost stripes (graphics) going from front to back and everywhere there was a chrome emblem i took off and had the emblems painted on it in ghost graphics.I ALSO TOOK ALL THE INTERIOR OUT N HAD IT ALL REDONE ALL BLACK LEATHER WITH A SMALL ORANGE PINSTRIPE IN CENTER OF EACH SEAT TO ACCENT CAR AND ADD JUST A TOUCH OF COLOR TO THE INTERIOR AND IT ALSO HAS AN UPGRADED CUSTOM "ORANGE LED DIGITAL DASH". Interior also has all new side panels and new black carpet and a custom console built and wrapped in the same black leather as the seats ALSO HAS A CUSTOM ALL ALUMINUM BUILIT STEERING WHEEL and has a 2013 pioneer touchscreen double din tv in console with 2 cup holders built in it and also (2) 5 1/4 memphis mojo mids and highs located on the side of the custom console.There is also 2 custom made and wrapped kick panels under dash that were covered in same black material and also have (2) memphis mojo 5 1/4 speakers in them as well. then in rear seat i have 4 more memphis mojo speakers mounted in side panels close to arm rests 2 on each side and all 8 0f them are on memphis crossovers and were all profetionally installed by stereo indash in dayton,ohio and all 8 memphis mids and hight are ran on a massive 3 foot long memphis mojo 125x4 amplifier which will blow your ear drums. Now last but not least we have the trunk which has all new trunk seals as does the doors and the trunk was completely done by Xtreme auto sports ( Mike Frudenburg ) WHICH IS THE COLDEST FABRICATOR AND DESIGHNER AT MAKING ONE OF A KIND VEHICLES. The trunk is completely customized with the memphis 3000x1 sub amp and the memphis 125x4 highs amp mounted under custom made glass with orange led lights which light up the windows and theres a custom 4 foot piece of custom glass built into the top of the box and was sent out and had it profestioally etched and says "CAPRICE CLASIC" with the caprice emblem etched in between the two words and also has bright orange led lights which glow through the etching and looks amazing. The box is the size of the entire trunk and all wrapped in same black leather as the interior and is flawless, there was no short cuts or money being saved on this build its one of a kind and all led orange lights are on mercury switch so they are off while trunk is closed but as soon as you open trunk n the mercury ball moves it kicks on all the lighs.There is also a $800 dollar audio battery in the rear which a custom made steel box was made for it to sit in and is mounted inside box by quarter panel so you see nothing but the quality work and quality parts used to build this one of a kind car. THE CAR ALSO CAME WITH POWER WINDOWS AND IS AN A/C CAR AND IT WORKS AS IT SHOULD AND HEAT IS AMAZING.I am the second owner of the vehicle and it has always been garage kept . It does have a nice alarm on it as well ofcouse ( we do live in dayton ) lol...

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
