Car started as a 1968 Chevelle Convertible, auto 350 car, in great shape, owned by former professional athlete. When he blew the motor a couple years ago, he searched for something more, and found a damaged 2008 corvette with some more power. He sent the Chevelle to a local frame shop, and had a custom chassis constructed of steel as you see, so that the wheelbase would match that of the Chevelle, as the corvette was shorter. The corvette torque tube was custom made, and the front and rear suspensions were professionally attached to the custom made frame. This is a tedious and expensive process to get a car to this stage, this much you should be able to see. The Chevelle then went to a body shop for floors and new paint, as well as the fiberglass dash, this is also where the trunk lid, convertible top, and grill went missing. After much headache, he went and bought a new luxury sports car and left in one of his garages, where i picked it up. The guy i was going to have work on it is off filming a tv show somewhere, and i don't want to wait for his return, so i am putting it up for sale.

Clean Florida title as a 1968 Chevelle, i will add the vin tomorrow when i check the title at my office. Last 8 of vin are stamped on firewall, and fender tag is intact. Currently in project stage as you see, drivetrain (Auto and LS2) and body are mounted, the staggered 18/19 corvette wheels and tires are in amazing shape, frame work is truly a work of art. Power windows install was started as well. Car currently has piston powered vertical lift doors on, forgot to grab a picture with the doors up. It rolls and comes with some air ride and misc parts as you see in pictures, which include wiring harness, bumpers, ECU, battery ground and some AC lines. The body has no rust, and no previous body work, has a couple touch ups as you see to prep for new paint.

I am only able to find record of one of these cars ever offered for sale completed, and it was last listed for sale at over $100k at Mecum and was on ebay at some point for $109k if memory serves me right. It is worth twice what i am asking just in parts, and should be an amazing car once someone takes the time to finish it. Please ask any questions, and serious buyers can call me at 845.633.3113 to discuss. Car can be stored through end of the month if needed once payment is made. Car is for sale locally and i reserve the right to end auction if sold locally. I would like to sell it straight out, and am not sure if i am selling too cheap here, so I will consider market ready late model car or boat in the 20k value range as comparable trade, no more projects for me, kid on the way. Thank you for looking.

Camaro-based Trans Am SE Bandit Edition borrows Burt Reynolds

Tue, Mar 29 2016

For some reason, modifying modern Chevrolet Camaros into the lurching, reincarnated shells of the Pontiac brand is still a thing. If you're the perverse sort that likes this kind of thing, you should check out the latest product from the Trans Am Depot, which comes complete with an endorsement from the star of Smokey and the Bandit, Burt Reynolds. Yes, the new Trans Am SE Bandit Edition has been signed and endorsed by the man himself, but what's important here is not the signature on the dash, it's the bits of Camaro that have been modified. Aesthetically, that means a Bandit-and-Frog-approved set of T-tops, a front-opening hood with a very large, prominent shaker scoop, an equally large and prominent screaming chicken, and Trans Am-inspired front and rear fascias. And naturally, Burt Reynolds' signature adorns the dash. There are plenty of reminders in the cabin about this car's Hollywood inspiration, too. Bandit decals can be found on the front headrests and center console lid, there are chicken wings on the Camaro-spec plastic door inserts, and the black-and-tan color scheme matches nicely with the exterior look. And power? Well, Sheriff Buford T. Justice would have a lot more trouble keeping up with this Trans Am than he did with the original. The 7.4-liter LSX V8 has been paired with a 2.9-liter supercharger which is good for 840 horsepower. It's fast and loud, and even if you can't get behind the look (we can't), at least this Camaro-in-Trans Am's clothing can impress with its performance. The Bandit Edition is limited to just 77 units with prices starting around $115,000. You can check out the official video from Trans Am Depot, which comes with a decent helping of Burt Reynolds, up top. Related Video:

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.

Chevy: The Big Game

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
