1969 Chevrolet El Camino PRO-MOD XTREME STREET, Just completed a 2 year makeover on this one of a kind El Camino... I am the third owner of this documented 69k original mile car that I have owned for 15 years. I was Friends with the Second Owner (my Neighbor's Brother) who purchased the car in 1972.. I have the Protecto Plate, Original Hand Written Window Sticker, Owners Manual with Original Jacket, Pre-Delivery Service and Check Sheet, Insurance Documents and other papers that prove the mileage and Ownership.... There is so much to say about the car I guess I will start with the Motor, it is a 454 cid 4 Bolt Main that is 60 over making it 468cid, it has a Rare set of worked 69' Corvette 427/435 L-72 Closed Chamber 107cc Rectangular Port Heads casting no. 3919840 with Crane Roller Rockers, Polished Steel Crank, Eagle Rods, 11.1 Half Domed Pistons, 700 Lift Crane NOS Roller Cam with a 106 lobe center and Roller Lifters, MSD 6AL Multi-Retard Ignition Box, Holley 850 CFM Dual Feed Double Pumper Polished Carb and a K@N Real Carbon Fibre Air Cleaner, Custom Real Carbon Fibre Valve Covers, Motor has not been on the dyno but I would guess approx. 650hp on Motor + 300 NOS...... Keith Wilson Owner of Wilson Manifolds is one of my Close Friends and built me a Trick Two Stage NOS System with a Fogger and Plate on one of his Custom Aluminum Intake Manifolds that has been Ported (Port Plenum, Divider Walls @ Roof Lines for flow and distribution) and installed his Nitrous Pro Flow Direct Port V-Force Nozzles. The Fogger and Plate are set to a Conservative 150HP each but can set up with new nozzles to be a lot more HP which I didn't need, Dual LED RED Purge System that exits from back of the hood, Hooker Comp Titanium Coated Headers that are connected to my Trick High Dollar Exhaust System that took many hours to build by AC Carcraft, these guys are one of the best fabricators in the Business and took my brainstorm and made it happen.. 5 Inch Double Wall Polished S/S Tips with S/S Bezels to protect the Fenders from the heat, I had wanted to make the car able to have Open Headers at the push of a button and have the looks of a Pro Mod Exhaust and be able to Idle in Traffic next to a Cop without getting more attention from noise and it works KILLER!! Everywhere I go people can't believe how nice it came out and how Awesome it sounds Open or Closed.... When it is closed it exits though quiet Turbo Mufflers and pipes that are just in front of the rear tires.. The transmission is a modified Turbo 400 with a 2800 TCI Converter. The car has been Tubbed and has a Narrowed Rear End which is a 12 Bolt Posi with 4:88 Richmond Gears, T/A 356-T6 Bilet Rear End Cover and Strange 32 Spline Axles. The 4 link Rear Suspension has AFCO Double Adjustable Billet Coil Overs, the Front End has been lowered with Drop Spindles and has Adjustable Race Shocks, the car has Power Steering, the Front Brakes are Wilwood Lightweight Drag Racing Discs with Drilled Rotors, the car runs super cool and has NO Overheating Problems even in my 90 degree South Florida Weather with Dual Electric 13.5 Fans and the Factory Big Block Radiator, The Fuel System is two seperate Systems with S/S Lines with separate Fuel Pumps and Filters for the Motor and NOS System. Triple Fuel Pressure Gauges for Motor and each system. It has a Switch on the Dash which arms the Second Fuel System and Fuel Pump when you want to use the NOS..The Alcatara Racing Steering Wheel with Bilet Disconect has two buttons, one for the Purge and one for the Second Stage, the First Stage has a Micro Switch on the Carb that only works when the NOS is Armed and operates the Fogger at wide open throttle. I have only used the NOS a few times to Dial it in and have Never Raced the Car at the Track.. I built it to be the Baddest Street Car that can still be driven to Shows, not like a lot of Radical Street Legal Race Cars that are too Radical too really drive... The car runs good on Pump gas but I recommend C-12 if your going to spray it.. I run C-12 because the amount of miles I drive it really doesn't matter.. The fuel cell is 16 Gallons.. The tires are Mickey Thompson Sportsman Radials 26x8x15 front and 33x22.5x15 rear. Wheels are Billet Specialities SFI 15.1 Approved Street Lite Race Wheels 15x7 front and 15x15 rear.

Burt Reynolds' movie re-creations fetch $379,500 in Vegas

Wed, Oct 3 2018

The recent death of Hollywood legend and automotive enthusiast Burt Reynolds helped drive up the value of four of his former cars from the 1970s and '80s, which sold last weekend at Barrett-Jackson's Las Vegas auction for a combined $379,500. Reynolds, who died Sept. 6 at age 82, had offered three Pontiac Trans Ams — two of them re-creations of the cars he drove in "Smokey and the Bandit" and "Hooper" and the third from 1984 used to promote his United States Football League team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth was a 1978 Chevrolet R30 pickup truck, styled like the one featured in "Cannonball Run." The "Bandit" re-creation, a 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am that Reynolds ordered to be as "movie-correct" as possible but featuring a custom-built 200-4R automatic transmission, sold for $192,500. The car features a freshly built Pontiac 400 cubic-inch V8 mated to a four-speed automatic and featuring all-new Butler Performance parts and air-conditioning components. Reynolds reportedly said this was his favorite car from his films, and it even came with an authentic movie-correct CB radio and CB antenna. The red retro-rocket "Hooper" '78 Firebird, with a 403 cubic-inch V8 and a three-speed automatic, hammered for $88,000. By comparison, a gold 1978 Trans Am also offered at the Las Vegas auction but not connected to Reynolds fetched $27,500. The 1987 Chevy R30 pickup was a re-creation of the Indy Hauler pace truck seen jumping over a moving freight train in "Cannonball Run." It hammered for $49,500. The fourth car never appeared in any of Reynolds' films but is instead the only surviving example of two Trans Ams used to promote the Tampa Bay Bandits of the now-defunct USFL, having been driven out onto the field by Reynolds and his late friend and co-star, Jerry Reed, during opening day one season. It also sold for $49,500. At the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in 2016, Reynolds accompanied a 1977 Trans Am used to promote "Bandit" onto the auction block. That car sold for $550,000.

Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV

Mon, Jul 20 2015

A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
