                                  1969 CHEVELLE CONVERTIBLE PROJECT                          



This is a 1969 Chevelle Convertible that I purchased around 8 years from Arizonia. I completely restored the car into a Resto-Mod. Car was stripped down to complete metal and painted LeMans Blue, I had a custom made Stay Fast top with matching well-liner, Bumpers rechromed, all new weatherstripping, I installed a Covan intrustment dash with UltraLite Gauges, all new Saddlewood interior that was custom made by PUI, 18in Coys on the front and 20in Coys on the rear with new tires, new exhaust, Purchased a Vintage Air that was never installed, all new moldings, Car has Power Windows, Power Steering, Tilt, Power Top, Power Disc Brakes, New Be Cool Aluminum Radiator. New Carpet, New Windshield. I installed a new 468 with a 700R, Car ran great and my wife drove it for around 1000 miles and quit driving it beause she had hurt her back, so we sat the car up untill last year when I decided to pull the 468 and 700R out. I then purchased a LS3 with a 6L80 to do a new drivetrain swap. I took the car completely apart, then it went to the bodyshop where the transmission tunnel was cut out because of the large transmission, a donor G8 was located and the transmission tunnel was installed, turned out really nice that I decided to keep the G8 console so I could have rear air, A new GM wiring harness was bought and modified to control the 6L80 trans, a new FI Gas tank with the pump in it, new fuel line that hasnt been installed. after all the mock up was done the car was repainted again to the same LeMans Blue, Paint is super nice. Motor and transmission is sitting in car along with the wiring harness, Car doesnt need much to be back complete. I bought some 2006 GTO Power Seats that are red and need to be recovered in the Sandlewood to match the interior, the seats have had brackets made so they will sit in there correctly. The paint job and transmission tunnel cost close to 7500 to do and the drivetrain and harness was another 11000.
I am not interested in any trades. This is a very nice car that will be fun when completed. Car is just needs to be put back together.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction at anytime due to reasonable offers and car is for sale locally.

The Camaro is for sale as well

How a Texas Hyundai dealer became the Chevy SSR king

Tue, Apr 21 2015

The SSR isn't one of the most appreciated vehicles in Chevy's long history. With a style amalgamating the look of a vintage hotrod, convertible and a pickup, it's really serving a niche market right from the start. However, a Hyundai dealer in Texas has turned selling the cult models into a booming business and has become the de facto king of the quirky truck. According to Automotive News, Paul Peebles runs North Freeway Hyundai in Spring, TX, but he's better known in the Chevy SSR community the premiere seller of the weird model through his used car network. The odd venture started in 2010 when Peebles wanted to boost his pre-owned business and bought several sporty vehicles. Among them were five SSRs, and he threw a cookout for owners to get the word out. Things just ballooned from there. Since then, Peebles' used car dealer has had a hand in 447 SSR transactions, and some of those are the same truck coming back to sell again. With just over 24,000 of them out there, that works about to two percent of the model's production moving through just one business. The dealership also sponsors an SSR owners' forum online. Being a major broker for a niche model also means that Peebles often gets rare examples of the SSR, including some of the Indianapolis 500 pace car versions, according to Automotive News. We even saw a bizarre one last year when the business put this shark-inspired truck on eBay Motors. The whole thing also works out well for Peebles' Hyundai business. Specializing in SSRs brings other performance models in as trade-ins, and they can draw folks to the lot to check out the collection. Then, maybe visitors can take a look at a Sonata, too.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
