Chevelle 1970 Big Block 454 Restomod 3 Speed Auto W/ Cool Air on 2040-cars
Rockville, Maryland, United States
|
This 1970 Big Block 454 RestoMod has had a tremendous
overhaul done to it and has been garage kept in a temperature regulated
garage. The recent restoration was completed January, 2013. As soon
as the car was delivered, the entire interior was stripped. All new
floors were welded throughout the vehicle along with a complete new
undercoat. The car was then lined with custom cut Dynamat material
throughout all the floors, doors and trunk. Custom fabricated shoulder
seatbelts were installed in the front and rear of the car. Then, the
seats all received new cushion and a special paint was applied. The
wiring was redone where needed. A new steering crank shaft was installed
along with a 1970 SS steering wheel. The AC unit was checked and fully
functioning. A new Retro classic style head unit was installed along with
2, 4x6 JBL speakers as well as 2, 6x9 JBL speakers in the rear. 2 Amps with
a 10” subwoofer were custom fit in the trunk along with all wiring. New
door handles and window crank shafts were installed as was the rear deck
meshing. The 3 speed shifter was rewired along with all wiring to front
and rear lights as well as reverse lights. The interior was then
reassembled with updated headliner, door panels and carpet. It was then
onto adding 4 disc brakes, shocks and springs. An air-ride suspension was
installed along with an adaptor in the trunk to raise or lower the suspension.
An entire new fuel line from front to back was assembled as was a new rear
axle, front and rear suspension with a Posi differential. The chrome,
large off-set AmericanRacing rims were installed on the vehicle. Inside
the engine, the engine was tested, everything was properly aligned, and a new
battery and battery wiring was complete. All new cabeling with heat wraps
were installed for protection from this massive engine. Additionally, a
new, large, chrome alternator was installed to handle the power this car
outputs. The horn was customized with an Dixie trumpet air horn inside the
front grill. All bulbs outside the Chevelle were replaced as was the
front hood latch. The final step besides the MasterFlo duel exhaust, was
to add an Electronic Muffler Bypass, or cutout with an electronic switch.
This allow you to not only increase the air outflow but sound from this beast
of an engine. Windows and window trim was tested and resealed where
necessary. Many other little tweaks were also done along the way.
The engine and paint were complete prior to me purchasing the car however
I have kept it garage kept and fully washed and waxed at all times. If
you are looking for an amazing on the frame restauration where no expense was
spared on updating a 1970 Chevelle Big Block 454 with a 3 speed 400 Trany, then
this is the car for you.

GM recalling 316k vehicles due to headlamp faults
Mon, Dec 1 2014General Motors has announced a recall covering 316,357 vehicles globally, due to the possibility of sporadic or permanent failure of the low-beam headlamps. 273,182 of these vehicles are in the United States, while the remaining affected units are in Canada, Mexico, and elsewhere.

In an email sent to Autoblog, General Motors explains that if the headlamp driver modules are not functioning correctly, "the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate." GM states that this problem does not affect things like high-beams, turn signals, marker lamps, or foglamps. As of this writing, GM states it "has not been able to confirm whether the HDMs in these vehicles caused any vehicle accidents."

Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe
Fri, Aug 14 2015A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
