I've owned it since 2000, since then I have:
Converted front spindles to roller bearings,,new brakes all around, including hoses,wheel cylinders and brake hardware, rebuilt parking brake.installed roller bearing idler arm a/k/a Poor Man's Power Steering
New seals and gaskets on rear axle, 3.36 open differential..a set of 4.11 gears and a posi unit come with car. New leaf springs
Engine is a 76 Impala 350, since that was the height of the smog years,, the compression ratio was only 8.5:1, so I reworked a set of 305 heads with better valves and valve springs, raisng the compression to about 10:1..it runs fine on regular, but I use premium. Has an Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold, Carter AFB, Accel distributor and MSD 6AL box..stock exhaust manifolds with glass packs and dual exhaust
Cam is a Crane 452 lift, 272 duration with roller tip rockers
Installed a new 3/8" fuel pickup and new 3/8 line from tank to fuel pump, -6 braided line from there to carb
Trans is a 58 or newer 3 speed synchro with overdrive...OD works great! Shifter is on the column
Raingear wipers
Old Air air conditioning/heater/defrost
AM/FM/Cassette w/new front speaker, I ran the wires for rear speakers, but haven't installed them, yet.
Coated the floor with Por15 before installing heat/soundproofing and new carpet
Replaced the cloth on the seats and door panels, vinyl was OK, so I re-used it
Door and Weather stripping is new, rebuilt vent windows
New wiring from dash to taillights
5 new tires
I'm to the point of doing the body work and painting it, but I know that will take it off the market for six months, so I'm offering it before I start that work.

Needs inner/outer rocker panels and some of the floor braces replaced

GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models

Fri, Mar 28 2014

General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It 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.
