This car was sold to the original owner by Jordan Chevrolet in 1972, located, at that time, in Timmonsville, SC. The dealership is no longer in business. The original owner had bought the car while living in Darlington, SC. She passed away without heirs or a will and her entire estate went up for auction in February 2005. I went to the auction in hopes that this car would worthy of bidding on, and I was right. I bought the car at the auction as the highest bidder. I drove the car home without any problems. It showed 10K miles on the odometer, and I'm sure it had turned over one time. But, I bought the car because it was in fantastic condition, had no signs of rust or having ever been wrecked, and it was whole and all there. As soon as I got the car home, I began a 2 year restoration. Since I've owned it, I've driven it 30K miles. So, it currently shows 40K miles, which is more than likely 140K miles. I started a restoration on the car begining with the drive train and running gear. The engine was professionally rebuilt by one of the top engine building machine shops in South Carolina. The dished 8.5 compression pistons were replaced with forged flat top 9.5 pistons, the cylinders were cleaned up, and all new bearings were replaced on the bottom end. The heads were freshened up with all new stainless steel valves, new springs, and, I've installed a Competition 270 Magnum Camshaft. It idles with a nice lope and it is crisp and responsive without hesitation or stumbling. The TurboHydramatic Three speed was professionally rebuilt and a new torque converter was installed. The entire front and rear suspension was rebuilt. A new 2 1/4 inch aluminized true dual exhaust system was installed with factory style low restriction high flow mufflers and factory chrome tips. The car rides on 15X8 inch Corvette Rallys and P235/60R15 BF Goodrich Radial Tires. The engine breathes through a GM Performance Parts cast iron Z/28 high rise intake and a 1970 Corvette 350 C.I. 350 HP Quardajet 4 barrel carburetor. It has a Pertronix electronic ignition unit in the factory distributor and the engine puts out a true 300 horsepower at the flywheel. The interior was redone in factory style and the carpeting was replaced. The factory installed AM radio is still in the dash and still works. All front sheet metal was replaced including new inner and outer fenders, a new domed hood, and a new trunk lid was installed. Both front and rear bumpers are new and most trim and molding has been replaced. All that is left to be done to the car should I keep it is to replace the sweep dash with an SS style dash, install a new sound system, and repair the factory air conditioning system. It is a numbers matching car and was repainted the factory color - Mojave Gold. I am selling the car because I feel I have reached the point with the money invested that I will not be able to get it back should in spend any more, and would like to take on a new investment. It rides very nicely and has won numerous awards at car shows. It gets a lot of attention and has been a joy to own. It runs on pump gas and sound very powerful. I have a true $25,000 in the car with what I paid for it and will negotiate a price close to that amount. Contact me @ 706-231-6380 to arrange viewing and bidding on the car.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Chevy: The Big Game
Mon, Feb 2 2015Chevrolet 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
Honda, Chevy reveal low-drag speedway aero for Indy 500
Sun, May 3 2015As the two automakers currently participating in the IndyCar Series, both Chevy and Honda were invited this year not only to provide engines to the teams on the starting grid, but to develop their own aerodynamics packages as well. Both revealed their designs for the road-course races a few months ago, but with the Indy 500 approaching at break-neck speed, they've now unleashed their aero approaches for speedways. Both are based on the Dallara DW12 chassis introduced to the series a couple of years ago, but sacrifice some of their downforce at the altar of speed. And you can tell as much from looking at them: both Honda (above) and Chevy (below) have streamlined their designs, with single-plane front wings, lower-profile rear wings and fewer winglets on the body and around the wheels in between. The idea is to allow the cars to reach higher top speeds with less drag, while offering the necessary amount of downforce for the banked turns. With the four opening road-course rounds complete, teams using either automaker's equipment will keep the existing aero kits on their cars for the Grand Prix of Indianapolis on the infield course next week, then switch to the speedway package for the Indianapolis 500 later this month. Then it'll be back and forth for the rest of the season as the circus switches between road courses and speedways. Honda Unveils 2015 IndyCar Super Speedway Aero Kit Apr 30, 2015 - SPEEDWAY, Indiana - To be used at the Indianapolis 500 - Manufacturer seeking 11th Indianapolis 500 victory since 2004 - First public running to take place Sunday at Indianapolis Honda today debuted the "Super Speedway" aero kit of aerodynamic upgrades and components its teams will use at this year's 99th running of the Indianapolis 500. The Honda Super Speedway Aero Kit, produced by Honda Performance Development, Honda's racing arm in North America, includes a variety of individual aerodynamic components fitted to the existing Honda-powered Dallara Indy car chassis. All are intended to give Honda's six Indy car teams – encompassing a potential 17 '500' entrants - the ability to maximize performance at the 2.5-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval and other large ovals ( over one mile in length) on the 2015 Verizon IndyCar Series schedule. "We're excited to unveil our Super Speedway aero kit, the newest element in this era of enhanced manufacturer competition in the Verizon IndyCar Series," said Art St. Cyr, president of HPD.
