71 Monte Carlo 454 Ss Clone Partially Restored Chevrolet A/c 400 Automatic on 2040-cars
Keedysville, Maryland, United States
This is my partially restored 71 Monte carlo, it has a frsh flat top 454 totally rebuilt last spring it has a 500-300 hydraulic cam and steel heads, aluminum valve covers new holly 750 dual feed carb. It has a brand new aftermarket heat and AC unit, I haven't had it charged yet but its ready to go. There's a new aluminum radiator and B&M transmission cooler with stainless lines. The transmission is a rebuilt turbo 400 with a 3200 stahl. It has a high torque starter and all new motor and transmission mounts. I replaced the u-joints in the drive shaft and I rebuilt the rear end new bearings with Yukon 390 gears and Posi unit. There are new Nito drag radials on the rear, with regular radials it wouldn't hook up but now it launches. I put a Holly fuel pump in it with a new line to the engine. It has electric cooling fans on a seperate control relay with temp sensor plus it has a light weight race fan on the water pump. I just had it in the garage and i replaced the front springs and after market tubular control arms with all ball joints and bushings. I painted the calipers and spindle's while it was apart and I replaced the shocks. When I got the car it hasd a bench seat and I replaced it with two cheap bucket seats that recline and I installed a dakota ($800) digital dash cluster which looks real good and i added supplemental gauges under the dash for 2nd reference's. It has a new stereo in with amp and subs but i was taking that out unless you wanted it. There is a blue led light kit under the car as well which looks real cool at night.There's more but it will take to long to list it all.
This car starts right up and runs and sounds great, I never took it to the track so I dont know what it runs but its fast. I have too much going on with life work and other projects so this one needs to go, I hate to sell it but I just don't have money or time to complete it. this cars is mechanically sound all that it needs is paint and some interior upgrades, the interior is good but I would put better seats in it and redo the rear dash the previous owner cut it out to put 4 6x9 speakers in it. The paint is ok now but it has some bubbles and chips here and there plus the soft top had a low spot in it but I was going to take it off and just roll with the hard top look.I didnt complete the flex duct work in the dash for the new ac system, the dash pad comes off easy and the stuff is easy to get to. The previous owner also put a few screws in the trim where the clips broke but they sell trim kits on ebay for $400.00. I have close to 20k in this car and I know that I wont get that for it and my reserve is well below it, please email with any questions comments and concerns and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. The car is in Keedysville MD and depending on how far away you are I can arrange shipping at your expense but I prefer to do the deal in person so you see what your getting. |

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
Weekly Recap: Tesla loses money, still dominates the news
Sat, Aug 8 2015Some people get an inordinate amount of attention. In politics, it's Donald Trump. In football, it's Jim Harbaugh. And in the auto world, it's Elon Musk and his always-fascinating electric car company, Tesla Motors. General Motors is spending $877 million to upgrade a factory. So what! US auto sales are up. Who cares? Tesla has a metal snake that will recharge your car! So was the week in Tesla – er, the industry. Snarkiness aside, Tesla did dominate the news cycle, led by the announcement the company lost $184 million in the second quarter. Tesla also said it expects to deliver between 50,000 and 55,000 vehicles this year, and is preparing for a full launch of the Model X crossover in September. Musk also made news during the earnings call by simply not answering a question about ride sharing, leading to speculation Tesla could be considering its own operation. While the financials were the arguably the most important company news, reports of a Model S cyber hacking were more compelling fodder for Tesla followers. Researchers were able to attack the sedan and bring it to a stop, though they required access to the car first. Tesla says it already has deployed a remedy for the situation. On a lighter note, Tesla published a video of its metal charger prototype that autonomously uncoils like a snake to power up the company's vehicles, provoking plenty of humorous comments and comparisons. Watch it and decide for yourself. While some of this might seem trivial, much of Tesla's recent attention has been warranted. It's the first startup US automaker in decades to launch from nothing and actually gain traction in the market. Sure, Musk is a lightning rod and Tesla always seems to be in the spotlight. But amid all of the publicity, it easy to lose sight of the new reality: Tesla is a force. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Volt lights up 106 MPGe The Chevy Volt's vitals are looking healthier for 2016.

The new Volt can travel 53 miles on electricity, a significant jump from the 2015 Volt's 38-mile range. The new car also has a 420-mile total range when factoring in the capability of the gasoline engine, which is 40 miles greater than the current car offers.
