We have a beautiful 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo SS 454 for sale.  Factory 454 V8, auto, power steering, power disk brakes, AM-FM stereo, and dealer installed air conditioning.  This car has the same owner for over the last  27 years and was always kept in a heated garage!  The owner will regret selling the car but can no longer legally drive due to health issues.  "Why keep it" he says.  Here is an opportunity for someone to own a very unique an original 454 SS Monte Carlo.  Why unique you ask?  Well, I tell you why.  In 2013 the original drive train was redone that had 81,800 miles on it.  The original 454 was taken to Jensen's engine technologies of Nescopeck, PA. and was treated to a full race performance rebuild and made a whopping 511 Horse power  and 546 ponds of torque on the dyno (have the dyno sheets)!  If that is not enough power for you there is another 100 HP on tap with a small NOS plate system with the tank mounted within the driver reach!  The nitrous was used once to test it when the owner and was present in the passenger seat.   The engine still runs on premium pump gas and runs cool in heavy traffic.  All the rest of the drive-train modifications, installation and tuning was done at Yanoski Motorsports of  Sugarloaf, PA.  I will list all the modifications the best I can.   There has been over $ 15,000 invested just in the last 2 years alone!!  There is less than 500 miles on the drive train rebuild.  The Monte was never raced and always cared for.  It was never driven in bad weather. The frame and floors are very clean and there has never been any rust.   The factory spare and jack are in the carpeted trunk. 

Let's start with the paint.  The Monte is the correct color (Classic White) it came with from the factory.  The car has one repaint.  The paint is very nice for being close to 20 years old.  It still has a very deep shine. It is not perfect, with a few small blemishes and minor chips.  The owner believes it is DuPont Imron.  This paint still shows very well!  

The Interior is very nice with the original headliner, door panels and rear seat.  The car has brand new carpet, front seats just re upholstered and new package tray.  A custom auto sound factory style radio puts out 300 watts of power to the Pioneer speakers.  The radio can control an I pod, MP3 player, or a CD player.   The car has a what is to be believed a dealer installed air conditioning unit under the factory dash that currently is not hooked up, but all of the parts are boxed that would complete the system.  

The engine is the correct 454 that has been magged, decked, and bored .030 over with JE -SRP forged pistons.  
The factory crank was magged , cut .010-.010 and balanced.
The original heads were decked, new guides with a set of Manley Stainless 2.18-1.88 were installed and given a race five angle valve job.
Other performance parts include --
Weiand Stealth intake with Everbright finish
Holley 4779 750cfm carb with electric choke
Pertronics ignitor 2 ignition & coil
Taylor custom spark plug wire set
Holley chrome manual fuel pump
Performance headers with dual exhaust and Flowmaster 40 series mufflers
New chrome water pump
New chrome Power steering pump
New chrome pulleys, brackets, etc......you get the idea, everything was replaced at the time the engine was done.

Transmission is the original  numbers matching turbo 400 that shifts perfect with a custom 2400 rpm stall speed done by Atlantic Coast Converters

The rear end is the correct 12 bolt posi that has been completely redone wit all new bearings, Yukon posi unit, and 355 gears. 
The speedometer/trans has been re-calibrated and is spot on! 

This car runs and drives excellent!  It needs nothing!  Take it and show it, drive it, be proud of it anywhere! 

I'm sure that I have forgot to list some things.  If you you want to stop by and check it out, have any questions, or need any other info about this awesome vehicle, please feel free to call Jim at 570-956-6342   Thanks and have a great day!

2015 Chevy Colorado takes Motor Trend Truck of the Year calipers [w/videos]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

The final winner of Motor Trend's prestigious Golden Calipers has been named, with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado taking the title of 2015 Truck of the Year, likely shocking those who thought Ford's all-aluminum, next-generation F-150 would take the crown. But win the Colorado did, beating not only the new Ford, but two other brutish Blue Ovals in the F-450 and Transit. The midsize pickup also bested its brethren from General Motors, beating the heavy-duty Chevy Silverado 3500, GMC Sierra Denali 2500 and the GMC Canyon, the Colorado's fraternal twin. After an unprecedented two-year stint with the Golden Calipers, Ram sat this year's awards out. Most impressive about the Colorado's victory isn't that it simply beat the US market's other trucks, it did so with a unanimous vote. Praise from MT's editors focused on the trucklet's price, spacious interior, fit and finish and performance. Former Autoblog staffer Jonny Lieberman called the Colorado's steering the best he'd "ever experienced on any truck, full stop," in MT's awards article. "After days of testing, hundreds of miles on the road, and our most rigorous truck testing program to date, our editors unanimously selected the Chevy Colorado as our 2015 Truck of the Year," said MT boss Edward Loh. "Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users." The Colorado joins the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and 2015 Honda CR-V among Motor Trend 2015 award winners.

New Takata problem results in recall of 414 GM vehicles

Mon, Oct 19 2015

An airbag-inflator rupture discovered by Takata during testing has resulted in a new recall affecting 414 vehicles from General Motors, including 395 of them in the US. This latest campaign covers 2015 model-year examples of the Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Camaro, Equinox, Malibu, and GMC Terrain. There are no reported breaks in any of these vehicles on the road, and the company estimates only one percent of them actually have the faulty parts. According to documents submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), one side-airbag inflator failed a cold test at -40 Fahrenheit "releasing high pressure gas and propelling the separated components apart." The supplier told GM about the failure the next day. In these vehicles, the safety device might not only burst but the bag could inflate incorrectly, as well. GM and Takata say that a cause is not yet known, but they are "conducting an investigation." GM will begin notifying affected owners via overnight mail on Oct. 19. Dealers will replace the side airbag modules on all of the affected vehicles with new components outside of the suspect lot. All of the removed parts will also be collected for further study. Takata's faulty front airbag inflators have resulted in a serious scandal for the supplier. Initial figures indicated 34 million US vehicles are need of repair, though more recent figures have knocked that down to 23.4 million bad parts in 19.2 million automobiles. GM was already among the dozen automakers with models to fix, and some of its pickups were affected, along with the Saab 9-2X and Pontiac Vibe. GM Statement: General Motors is recalling 395 cars and crossovers in the U.S. because one of the front seat side air bags inflators may be defective. In the event of a deployment, the air bag's inflator may rupture and the air bag may not properly inflate. The rupture could cause metal fragments to strike the vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. GM is unaware of any incidents involving vehicles with these components, which were part of a lot in which one inflator failed acceptance testing at the supplier. Dealers will replace the side air bag module or modules in affected vehicles. Including Canada, Mexico and exports, the total population of the recall is 414, GM estimates 1 percent of the recalled vehicles may have the defect.

Weekly Recap: Revisting the BBC report that ended Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear run

Sat, Mar 28 2015

Jeremy Clarkson's long run as a Top Gear host has come to an end, and the reason is clear: His physical assault on one of the show's producers crossed a line, and the government-owned BBC couldn't tolerate it. The incident between Clarkson and Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon was initially described as a "fracas," and Clarkson was suspended. But his popularity and widespread support – even British Prime Minister David Cameron weighed in – suggested that the controversial Clarkson might be given yet another chance. The BBC put this to rest Wednesday when it sacked Clarkson and revealed the findings of its investigation. The report spelled out how Clarkson struck Tymon on the patio of a North Yorkshire (UK) hotel, leaving him with a bloodied, swollen lip. It was severe enough that the producer sought medical treatment. During and after the attack, Clarkson shouted expletives at Tymon and threatened to fire him. The noise carried into the hotel's dining room and even to a bedroom. Local police investigated the incident, but Tymon isn't pressing charges. The huge audience numbers, Clarkson's popularity and the high-octane excitement of Top Gear all melted away in the eyes of BBC director-general Tony Hall, who saw an attacker and a victim. "For me a line has been crossed," he said in a statement. "There cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations." In that moment, Clarkson was the bad guy, though he was actually the one who reported it to the network and made repeated attempts to apologize to Tymon. He's also urged the media to leave the producer alone. Hall voiced regret in the statement that announced Clarkson's contract would not be renewed, but the BBC decided to move on. Rumors are swirling about possible replacements for Clarkson. The network says it wants to continue Top Gear in 2016 and is looking to air the rest of this season's episodes. Despite the controversy, the show has a global audience of 350 million viewers and is one of the BBC's most valuable properties. It's unclear what Clarkson's co-hosts, James May and Richard Hammond, will do, as their contracts were also reportedly up to be renewed.
