V8 S10 Conversion Body Off 1982 on 2040-cars
Lawrenceville, Georgia, United States
Here is an extremely straight not a door ding absolutely show straight body with a professional paint job done frame off inside and out all door jambs under hood bed etc however it was frame offed about 10 years past then fell into some barn after engine threw rod. I bought it for way too much $ because of the condition of body and underneath, which is almost as impressive. zero rust none. The underside is clean as well. Anyway I had my mechanic who specializes in s10 rods and races an s10 Blazer do the install of basically a very nice running 350 which had been rebuilt out of a show cutlass who upgraded to 450 hp. Engine seems to be stock truck motor out of pre 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe or suburban with a 4 bbl and dual exhaust. the trans is a 700r4 which shifts very smooth and the rear end I'm guessing is 3:25 somewhere around there. Now with the 16" Camaro z28 rims it will spin the tires at will even at speed so the motor has too much power to do anything with without going posi and some type of traction aid. It is basically a driver and she is very dependable my son has driven it the past month daily since his car was broken. It is very well mannered if driven like Grandma or she will fly if desired. The gas mileage is decent with the 700r. I bought the car also because it had both heat which works well and a/c system complete. Most s10 conversions remove everything but this one is a step above. I was going to finish it and do everything but I have recently been given custody of a 2 yr old to go along with the 6 yr old so now I cannot use this truck and need ext cab. so before I paint it and it gets more expensive I'm putting her up for cheap. This truck could be extremely nice with very little elbow grease, plus you can drive it anywhere any distance right now. new alternator, new starter, new battery, brakes are excellent, exhaust is perfect, gas is clean and electric fuel pump works dependably. Best of all it does not get hot with the 2 electric fans and the special aluminum radiator stuff needing attention :1. seats need removed and new springs installed they are shot 2. there is water coming in on drivers side floor there is an easy fix on internet haven't got to it yet 3. speedocable either broke or disconnected it was working but not now 4. headliner is new but glue failed and needs reglued 5. never bothered to hook up radio |

Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo could only work in a video game [w/video]
Thu, Nov 20 2014There's something wondrous about the Vision Gran Turismo series of concepts that has let companies go wild with completely imaginary concepts for Gran Turismo. For Chevrolet's crack at the idea, it has taken a page out of its performance past with the Chaparral Can-Am racers of the '60s and '70s, with its designers having reinterpreted that period look for the future of motorsports as the Chaparral 2X. In real life, the 2X looks even better than in earlier photos. The design takes inspiration from someone in a flying suit with head down and arms outstretched, an influence you can really see that in the vehicle's shape. The driver lies facedown inside with the instruments projected onto a visor. Unfortunately, the powertrain here is a complete flight of fancy and works purely in the video game world. It imagines a laser propelled by lithium-ion batteries and an air-powered generation to make 900 horsepower. The 2X has a theoretical top speed of 240 miles per hour and hits 60 mph in a lightning-quick 1.5 seconds. Scroll down to see the concept on video with Chevrolet designers describing their inspiration and read the company's full announcement. It's also downloadable in Gran Turismo 6. Chevrolet to Show Chaparral Vision Gran Turismo Concept Boundary-pushing, Chevy-powered race cars changed motorsports design DETROIT – When racers Jim Hall and Hap Sharp founded Chaparral Cars in 1962, few could have guessed how they would shake up the conformities of the racing world – and fundamentally change it. Through pioneering applications of aerodynamics and aerospace technology, and a partnership with Chevrolet Research and Development, Chaparral Cars advanced the science of racing cars. It also triumphed on the track over well-established sports car companies from around the world, using Chevrolet horsepower. It was that spirit of innovation that inspired the Chevrolet Chaparral 2X VGT concept race car developed for the Vision Gran Turismo project, which celebrates the 15th anniversary of PlayStation® racing game Gran Turismo by inviting manufacturers to give fans a glimpse into the future of automotive design. It will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show, Nov. 19, and gamers will be able race the Chaparral 2X VGT following the release of an online update for Gran Turismo 6 during the holiday season.
Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best
Tue, May 3 2016Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.
