1963 Chevy Biscayne 2 door sedan 550hp Twin Turbo LS 5.3 .. Dare to be different...This is the ultimate sleeper still wearing its original 6 cyl badging, truly a Wolf in sheeps clothing .. Now is your chance to own This Biscayne, it has awesome patina that only mother nature, father time and the California sun and acid rain can create, looks like leopard print on roof hood and trunk.. It started life as a 6 cyl  powerglide car from the gangland of Compton California wearing a real bullet hole in the left front fender…This Biscayne has tens of thousands of dollars invested not counting hours and hours of labor invested to build this cool ride… This car is the ultimate cruiser or street bruiser... Biscayne features a 550 hp twin turbo Chevy 5.3 LS on 4 wheel air bags and 4 wheel disc brakes.. This car is a million times more fun than any shiny trailer queen, don’t spend your weekends washing and waxing or worrying about something happening to your paint, spend it driving and enjoying.. Load up the  kids and go get an ice cream,  go fishing, go surfing,  load up coolers, BBQ, chairs, and friends and family and go tailgating.. haul your tools and junk in it, you can eat and drink in it, lean on it, put a trailer hitch on it and tow your trailer queen, you can even have fun racing other unsuspecting hot rod owners. Don’t kid yourself this car was built for fun and will give you smiles from ear to ear when you stab the throttle and you hear the whine of the turbos spooling up throwing you back in the seats (this car runs hard).. This car  was built to be enjoyed and driven, it gets more looks and attention when driven than any $150,000  shiny trailer queen…No need for an expensive garage to store it in, just a a slab of concrete and car cover will do..   This car runs on cheap high octane E85 fuel that will make the liberal tree huggers happy and is easy on your wallet… The great thing with turbos is they are a tame kitty kat when putted around but an animal when you stab the throttle… What’s more fun owning this car or watching your 401K balance fluctuate with every rotten thing the government does or worry that Rats like  Bernie Madoff or the Enron scammers will take it? Eventually  the piss-poor broke government will figure out how to dip into your hard earned money to fund their next scam/bailout, Just like they did social security, so invest in cars and memories enjoy it now… click on link to see the article written about it this month in CHEVYHARDCORE magazine http://www.chevyhardcore.com/news/battle-scarred-63-biscayne/

I  addressed minor rust issues caused by window left down.. I replaced rear floor pans  and patches front driverside floor as needed with reproduction floor pans.. great body mounts rockers floors and trunk.. This Biscayne is structurally sound and solid, but this car isn’t about perfection, its about patina and  scars/bullet hole on the original paint creating the perfect distressed look as only time can do… If you understand this style of car then you will understand it is absolutely perfect in all its imperfections and is complete and finished. I encourage personal inspection prior to bidding, no joy rides…

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
