1984 Chevy Monte Carlo SS – PRO STREET. This BEAST is a complete frame off custom build which has been 10+ years in the making. The owner has invested over 100K in parts alone, not including the 100’s of labor hours that he spent on the build himself. The meticulous detail that went into this build is what really sets it apart from other “PRO STREET” cars out there today. All the receipts and literature for the installed parts and accessories are available and will be passed onto the buyer. The interior was completely reupholstered floor to ceiling with beautiful blue fabric. Even the rear seat was custom cut and re-installed which is typically not seen on a tubbed car. It has a “Dakota” digital dash that looks like it belongs there from the factory. It gives you a clear view of MPH, RPM’s, fuel percentage, and water temperature. The Hurst shifter is surrounded by a hand-made chromed aluminum console and has a custom made dual switch shift handle for line lock and over drive. The steering wheel is made by “Banjo” and is removable which is a good anti-theft feature.

The exterior white paint is flawless and boasts beautiful hand painted decals that really accent nicely the theme of the car. This Monte rides on polished aluminum “Centerline” wheels wrapped in Micky Thompson rubber. It has front 12” and rear 13” disc brakes (with Emergency Brake) for superior stopping ability. This Monte truly rides like a Cadillac with its full front and rear “Hotchkis” suspension and “Strange” axles. Finally, to get into the good stuff. The car is powered by a 502 cubic inch big block crate engine. The heads were ported to match the polished aluminum “Stealth” intake manifold. It has a turbo 350 transmission built for 1000 HP. The transmission has “Gear Venders” for over and under drive to make it a full manual 6-speed. It has a bullet proof 9” rear with 4.11 gear ratio. Nascar radiator with twin fans. Hooker headers with a custom made full stainless steel 3” exhaust. Handmade stainless steel gas tank. Custom made carburetor intake which pulls extra air off the cowl. There’s a A/C idle solenoid to kick up RPM’s when the air conditioner is on. 120 AMP, 1 wire alternator. The battery shuts off with the key. Call, Text or Email Ryan Fallon - 267.228.8150 – Ryanfallon2@gmail.com There are so many custom parts on this Monte that it is nearly impossible to remember them all let alone list them all so I just mentioned a few. The engine dyno-ed out at 605 HP @ 6500 RPM. This car was built for show, not for racing however you could make a few modifications to make it track worthy (roll cage and parachute.) But that would really take from the cars integrity. This Monte Carlo is truly a “Hot Rod Family Car.” It has less than 150 miles on it since it was complete and it has never been raced. It has been entered into many local car shows where it has won award such as “best in show” and “best motor.” Polished aluminum and stainless steel. Almost every bolt under the hood that could be has a Chevy insignia bolt head. It runs on pump gas (93 octane) but will certainly take racing fuel. The car has been garage kept since the build began and has never seen the rain. A little about the owner/builder… This multiple award winning show stopper is owned by and was built by master mechanic Joe “Slim” Ulanowski. He has been building custom/race cars for well over 40 years and his garage Academy Automotive which is located in Northeast Philadelphia has been open since 1976. He has built and restored numerous award winning vehicles in his career. Slim and Academy Automotive are proud sponsors of the wounded warrior project in which “Slim” had his hand in the building of the Wounded Warrior Projects 1969 Chevy Camaro SS.

Recharge Wrap-up: Phoenix Cars delivers ZEUS to Navy, Volt saves gas compared to i-MiEV

Thu, Apr 23 2015

Phoenix Cars has delivered its first Zero Emissions Utility Shuttle (ZEUS) flatbed truck to the US Navy. The electric flatbed will be used to transport maintenance materials around Naval Base Ventura County Port Hueneme. The Phoenix ZEUS features a 100-mile range, and can charge in just three hours. It also features vehicle-to-grid technology and direct power capability, allowing it to function as a mobile power station. ZEUS customers enjoy an eight-year/300,000-mile battery warranty and round-the-clock technical support from Phoenix. Phoenix launched an electric passenger shuttle last year, and years ago worked on an electric sport utility truck before shifting over to larger vehicles. Read more in the press release from Phoenix Cars. A man found that he used less gas by trading in his Mitsubishi i-MiEV for a Chevrolet Volt. Ben Rich saved fuel in part by using his Volt for road trips rather than needing to rent cars. Rich also found other benefits to driving a Volt, including more comfort, more freedom of movement and less range anxiety. Rich often had to turn off the heat in the winter to eke out precious miles in the Mitsubishi, which he needn't do in the Chevy, though he did have a gripe about the Volt using the gas motor to warm the car.

ChargePoint has tallied over 9 million charging sessions for a total of 65 gigawatt hours of energy. Based on national efficiency averages of three miles per kWh and 23.9 miles per gallon, this has saved 8.2 million gallons of gasoline and 60 million pounds of CO2. This accounts for what ChargePoint calls a "huge environmental impact." Read more in the release from ChargePoint below. The Environmental Impact of ChargePoint Drivers Campbell, Calif. We all know electric vehicles (EV) have enormous environmental advantages over gas vehicles. Plug-in EVs reduce carbon-based greenhouse gases, improve air quality and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. EV drivers on the ChargePoint network have had a huge environmental impact. With over 9 million charging sessions delivering 65 gigawatt hours of energy, EV drivers have avoided over 60 million pounds of CO2 and 8.2 million gallons of gasoline, and driven over 196 million gas-free miles. *Based on national averages: EV efficiency of 3 miles per kWh, gas efficiency of 23.9 mpg and a net savings of 0.924 pounds of CO2 per kWh.

Recharge Wrap-up: Renault Zoe recall, Proterra buses log 2M miles

Fri, Mar 25 2016

Renault is recalling 10,649 examples of its Zoe electric car for potential brake hose failure. Cars built at the company's Flins factory between the Zoe's 2012 introduction and October 6, 2014 - a quarter of all Zoes ever built - are subject to the recall, though no accidents have been reported from rupturing brake lines. Recalled vehicles will have the brake hose positions inspected and, if need be, fixed. Read more from Reuters. Proposed legislation in Massachusetts would make the state even more EV friendly. While the state already encourages EV adoption with a $2,500 rebate incentive, the new bill would give battery electric vehicle drivers HOV lane access. Additionally it would set up a standard building code for EV chargers, and allow EV-only parking spaces. "With decreased gas prices, a 10 percent increase in vehicle miles traveled over the last 20 years, and a carpool rate below the national average, we must address personal vehicle use directly as part of our transportation emissions reduction strategy," says Rep. Frank Smizik. Read more from Teslarati. The New York Daily News has named the 2016 Chevrolet Volt as its "Green Machine of the Year." Seamless operation, peppiness, and a nice suite of equipment make it a top choice for the publication. "The 2016 Chevrolet Volt is all new, inside and out, and takes the plug-in hybrid segment to another level, thanks to its increased EV range, updated cabin, and more efficient gas-powered engine," writes Daily News Autos writer (and all-around good guy) Nick Kurczewski. Honorable mentions go to the Tesla Model S, BMW i3, Toyota Prius, and the hydrogen-powered Toyota Mirai. Read more from the Daily News, or at Clean Technica. Proterra electric buses have accumulated 2 million miles of revenue service. That equals 3,800 tons of carbon emissions that have been prevented and 420,000 gallons of fuel unburned. Proterra says it has 63 buses in service in 15 cities, and that it is ramping up production to meet growing demand. "This latest milestone exemplifies the economic, environmental and civic value of electric mass transit," says Proterra CEO Ryan Popple, "and demonstrates to the transit agencies that diesel - often viewed as a necessary evil - is no longer necessary."

Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and EV Buyer's Guide: Which one do you want?

Fri, Nov 10 2017

If you're shopping for a new vehicle these days, there's a litany of acronyms, buzzwords, and technobabble to further complicate an already difficult decision. But if you're looking at a green powertrain, you have three basic choices to compare: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and "EV" or, electric vehicle. So what are they and which one if any — is right for you? Research your next new vehicle using Autoblog's Car Finder. Gasoline-Electric Hybrids By now, most people are familiar with the concept of a hybrid car. Thank Toyota's Prius for that. At its most basic, a hybrid vehicle has two powertrains, one gasoline and one electric, which work together for maximum efficiency. At low speeds, the engine can shut off entirely, relying solely on the battery for propulsion. The battery is either charged as you drive by converting kinetic energy into potential energy via a complex regenerative braking system, or directly off of the gas motor. This is a very hands-off, behind-the-scenes system as all the driver has to is put in gas and drive as normal. Hybrids come in all shapes and sizes and, according to the EPA, range in fuel economy from 58 mpg for the Hyundai Ioniq Blue all the way down to 13 mpg for the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta. Best For: Anyone who want to see their fuel consumption go down without many sacrifices. You can easily find a hybrid sedan, hatchback, crossover, SUV or even a pickup truck (i f you can find one). Best of all, a hybrid requires no special equipment to be installed at home, or added work for the driver. Hybrids do cost more than traditionally-powered competitors, so make sure to compare projected fuel savings with how much extra a hybrid will cost – it may take a surprisingly long time to break even. The EPA provides a handy calculator for this very purpose. Our Favorite Hybrids: 2017 Toyota Prius 2018 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Plug-In Hybrids Sometimes referred to as a PHEV, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, this is a baby-step towards full electrification. Armed with a much larger battery pack than a hybrid, PHEVs can go between 12 ( Mercedes-Benz GLE550e) and 97 ( BMW i3 w/Range Extender) miles on electricity alone depending on the model and your driving style. Like a normal hybrid, the driver is largely unaware of which power source is currently in use, even as they switch over — either because the battery is drained, or the driving circumstances require more power.
