Feel free to email: brunabyyepes@scotshome.com . 1969 Camaro Pro-Street Recently Completed
I am sure there is nothing out there this like this car. It took 5 years to build and was done right in every way.
I bought the car originally in Wisconsin and sent it directly to Muscle Up Performance in Janesville, Wisconsin.
Check their website and you will some of the info on the car. Rich Bickle the owner and former NASCAR driver re-did
the body and built the chassis.
The full chassis frame was built the similar to the way NASCAR teams build theirs but without the full roll cage.
Full tubular design with mounting points to the original Camaro mounts. The mounts are solid and there is no flex
in the chassis or movement where it isn’t wanted. This keeps the suspension geometry exact continuously. The
shocks and coils are fully adjustable with ride height and car load. QA-1 products were used.
The front end has a Sweet power steering rack, tubular A arms, Heim joints at all pivot points, tie rod end and
ball joint locations. Brakes are Wildwoods best 4 piston calipers and large rotors.
Muscle up Performance took the car to bare metal and then gave it a perfect pain job in GM Corvette red. The hood
is fiberglass with a stinger scoop accented in silver. Really makes the car come alive.
The engine is a new crate LS6 with a 6 speed T56, The McLeaod hydraulic throw bearing was purchased to ensure
trouble free operation and simplicity for bleeding and operation. A 3 ½ inch drive shaft was sourced and connected
to Winters Ford 9" rear end with a 3.70 gear and posi. The 4 link suspension controls the movement of the rear end
again with QA1 coils and adjustable shocks, 450 lb/in used on the rear. Brakes again are Wildwood.
The black leather interior seats were taken from a newer GM vehicle with six way adjustment. The rears were
sectioned to fit and the complete installation looks factory. The door panels and console were done in a matching
black leatherette which was also wrapped around the original dash. New gauges were added and the overall effect
with the black low pile carpet giving it sporty but elegant look.
An aluminum rad with two electric fans was added to cool the engine.
All engine management and sensors were provide by Turnkey engines with a Painless wiring installation. They
certainly do a great job with their packages.
The car was complete last year and I drove it 60 miles to a local car shown. Having driven all types of performance
cars in the past 40 years this was one of the best handling and driving cars I have driven with a ride to rival
only the newest performance car designs. This is not the type of car I drove some 45 years ago when I got my
license. The first thing that I noticed after the build was there was way more chassis then engine. I then added a
Procharger Supercharger and ATI pinned balancer. A water to air intercooler, pump and cooler were added to help
cool the charge. The final inclusions were a water/methanol injection system, MSD coil packs and wires were added
to ensure a reliable spark.
The wheels are Foose 18 inch rim 8” in the front and 9.5” in the rear. The tires are 235/45x18 on the front and
rears are 275/35x 18.
The car has 0 miles with this set-up. I don’t have the time to enjoy all the vehicles I built and have now. The
car would cost more than $100K to reproduce as that is what I spent to date

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
