1982 Monte Carlo purchased on eBay in 2010 from North Carolina owner.  Previous owner drag raced the car; installed rebuilt (bored over) Chevy 350 motor and TH350 trans, air bags on rear suspension, removed vinyl from top, painted car Burple (blue/purple candy).  Car has less than 2,000 miles on rebuilt engine.  Original car mileage unknown (suspected 110,000 or so).

Since purchasing the car I have made numerous improvements including Corbeau Wide Sport seat (driver) and Summit Racing seat (passenger), AutoMeter gauges, new carpet, CD player, speakers, amplifier. Spectre Cold Air Intake system, Hurst lock-out Hammer shifter, new exhaust, radiator and hoses, front shocks, 20 inch chrome wheels, Harwood fiberglass hood (still black).

Car runs and drives fantastic.  Needs new carburater installed (new Holley 4-barrel carb included with car), transmission has slow leak but functions completely; needs interior work to complete transition from maroon to black.  Car has no catalytic converter so will NOT pass emissions (check your state for whether 1982 cars require emissions tests; IL does not).  Burple paint is not in good shape; needs cut and buff or refinishing.  Looks good from a distance but not close up.

This car is my dream project, but a recent job change requires me to get something more practical for city driving.

Complete list of improvements available by request.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite 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.

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest

Tue, Jun 16 2015

There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.
