What we have here is the almost completion of an awesome autocross contender or an awesome pro touring car if that is what you prefer. It has the best of everything and will make someone a show type car that will run with the best of them. I have over $56,500 in parts alone so far in this car and I have the receipts to prove it. That does not include the labor we have invested in it which is probably another $20,000 to $30,000 to say the least. Here is a description of what parts we have purchased, mocked up or installed on the car. On the front, it has a Detroit Speed front clip with the LS engine motor mount options and has been powder coated black. We installed a set of Baer 6 piston Pro plus brake kit with all new proportioning valve, lines and master cylinder. On the rear, it has a Heidts independent rear suspension with a Ford 9" pumpkin and 390 gears. I bought it with the chrome brakes, parking brake kit and it is also powder coated. The engine has a high performance LS6 out of an SS 2001 Camaro with new 3.905" bore Mahle forged pistons, new rods and new crank that was internally balanced. It is built to 10.21 to 1 compression ratio. The block was line bored, line honed and square decked. It has ARP head studs, Clevite main and rod bearings, durabond cam bearings, Comp Cams push rods, custom Comp Cams camshaft degreed per specs, new knock sensors and wiring harness, GM Performance head gaskets, double roller timing chain set, B&M flexplate, Fel Pro gaskets throughout, Proform high torque starter, F.A.S.T. precision flow injectors, GM Performance oil pump, NGK spark plugs, ATI SFI Harmonic Balancer, set of custom LS coil brackets, MSD coils, new bypass tubing and seals, new MAF sensor, ARP flex plates bolts, ARP stainless header studs and ARP balancer bolt. We have all the blueprint clearances available for whomever purchases the car. I had custom Forgeline Wheels made for the offsets we needed on the car. The fronts are 9" wide and the rears are 12" wide. The front tires are BF Goodrich G-force T/A KDW 255/35R 18 and the rears are 335/30 18's. I have new carpet, vintage air ac/heat system which has been mock fit, Corbeau racing seats and sliding brackets that are already installed, new Be Cool Aluminum Radiator, new aluminum fuel cell with an Autometer in the tank A-1000 Stealth fuel pump, new autometer fuel filters, new Lemon headers that still need to be ceramic coated, a custom drive shaft, custom transmission support, painless 18 circuit wiring harness, painless engine fuel injection wiring harness, Lokar billet gas pedal and matching brake pedal, Flaming River tilt steering column, new bumper brackets that have been powder coated, dynamat sound deadener, SCE copper header gaskets, Locar billet door handles, electric window kits installed on door windows, new electric window switch kit, new Optima battery, new powder coated radiator core support, custom steel factory hood with SS chevelle hood scoops and new chrome inserts, a Phoenix Transmissions 4L80E and the engine has a Vintage Air Front Runner serpentine system in polished aluminum. The body has been put on a rotisserie and blasted. All the bad metal has been replaced including both full quarters, both rocker panels, both pillar posts, and the floors had been replaced before I got this project. The deck lid will need to be replaced because someone warped it and it had a lot of bondo. The front windshield has been flush mounted to get rid of the wind noise and drag associated with older car designs. The firewall has already been painted GM pearl white which is one of the colors we had anticipated on using when we finish painted the car. Almost everything on the car is new including the custom guages in the dash. I am sure I left some stuff out, but if you know anything about building cars you can see that we didn't cut corners! |

Chevrolet only automaker to win EPA's 2015 Climate Leadership Awards
Fri, Feb 27 2015Chevrolet was the only automaker to be on the list of entities for the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Climate Leadership Awards. Of course, the accolades had nothing to do with any vehicle's tailpipe emissions, General Motors can still be proud. The automaker is engaging in what it calls the Chevrolet Clean Energy Campus Campaign. Chevy is working with the US Green Building Council, among other groups, to find ways for buildings in primary and secondary schools as well as college campuses to reduce their collective carbon footprint via better design. The EPA pointed out the "carbon performance methodologies" used by Chevrolet to run the program and spur lower emissions from its campus partners. The effort is part of Chevrolet's broader goal to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by as many as 8 million metric tons of CO2. And it's going to take more than bunch of plug-in Volt and Spark EVs to do that. Other entities feted by the EPA include UPS, Bank of America, the cities of San Francisco and Oakland, Clorox and Tiffany & Co. Yes, Tiffany. Take a look at the EPA's press release below, and find out more information on Chevy's program here. UPS, Bank of America, SC Johnson Among 16 Organizations across the U.S. Recognized for Climate Action / EPA also recognizes Chevrolet Clean Energy Campus Campaign, San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative in new Innovative Partnerships Category WASHINGTON – From an innovative partnership enabling colleges to sell carbon credits to fund clean energy projects on campuses to some of the country's leading corporations setting and exceeding aggressive emission reduction goals, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Climate Leadership Award winners announced today are demonstrating that innovative actions to combat climate change are smart business decisions. Sixteen organizations and one individual representing a wide array of industries from finance and manufacturing to retail and technology show exemplary corporate, organizational, and individual leadership in response to climate change. "I am proud to recognize our Climate Leadership Award winners for their actions to reduce the harmful carbon pollution that's fueling climate change," said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. "Our winners are demonstrating that a healthy environment and a strong economy go hand in hand.
Chevy Malibu Hybrid wins 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year
Thu, Jan 21 2016From the Washington Auto Show today, Green Car Journal's Ron Cogan announced three different fuel-efficient vehicle awards. They were: 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year: Chevy Malibu Hybrid 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year: Volvo XC90 T8 2016 Green SUV of the Year: Honda HR-V The Volvo was nominated in two categories, but it did not win the Connected Green Car of the Year. Speaking of non-winners, the other green SUV finalists were the BMW X1 XDrive28i, Hyundai Tucson, Mazda CX-3, and Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. The other Luxury Green Car finalists included the BMW x5 xDrive40e, Lexus RX 450h, Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid, and the Mercedes-Benz C350e. Finally, the Audi A3 e-tron, BMW 330e, Toyota Prius, and Volvo XC90 T8 were the runners up for Connected Green Car. 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year, Luxury Green Car of the Year Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has announced the winners of its prestigious 2016 Green Car Awards at a press conference held today during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day in Washington DC. Distinguished as 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year™ is Volvo's new XC90 T8. The Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid tops the field as 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year™ and Honda's HR-V earns Green Car Journal's 2016 Green SUV of the Year™. "These are stand-out vehicles in an increasingly sophisticated and appealing field of 'green' cars," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "To make the cut as a finalist is a real achievement in itself considering the considerable competition in the market today. Rising to the top as award winners means these three exceptional vehicles set a benchmark in the auto industry's effort to create vehicles that are desirable and efficient, while also achieving environmental milestones so important for our driving future." The Green Car Awards are a key feature of The Washington Auto Show, the "public policy show" on the auto show circuit and one that puts a priority on safety and sustainability. "We are extremely proud of our partnership with Ron Cogan, whose eagerly anticipated suite of awards help shape the national conversation on the innovations that will drive our industry and country forward," said Geoff Pohanka, chairman of The Washington Auto Show.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
