THE AWARD WINNING 1955 "SILVERBACK"! JUST COMPLETED A TWO YEAR PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION! LESS THAN 50 MILES!
105+ PHOTOS & VIDEO LOCATED BELOW! ENJOY!
If you're a Chevy guy (or gal) then you're going to enjoy our 55. If you're a Tri-Five guy (or gal), well
you're about to mess up all of your priorities by putting this thing at the top of your "want list". For that,
I apologize. If you're neither of the two, well chances are you're a Prius guy and if that's the case, I think
they've got reruns of Friends running on the Oprah network for all of April.
One of my good buddies just finished building this 55. He took it all the way down and brought it all
the way up. It just took 2nd place at World of Wheels (couple months ago). The paint and body work on the car is
great. It was done in a two stage base coat clear coat and was done by a very talented & experienced auto artist
by the name of Larry Liles. He owns Fine Line Customs out of Tightward, Missouri. The black and silver with the
combination of the staggered black rims, really give the 55 it's own mean appearance. Like a true Silverback, it
is hunched and ready to tear the street apart. All of the chrome & stainless has either been redone or replaced
with new pieces. The majority of it being refurbished. All of the glass through out the 55 has been replaced with
new smoked glass. It's got new body bushings as well as a new idler arm. He put all new emblems through out and
went ahead with the "Belair" upgrade.
The 350 motor within this 55 has been rebuilt and is in excellent mechanical order. The 600 Edelbrock
provides the perfect balance between having a nice cruiser but with enough power that if you want to get around
someone then there is more then plenty to work with. Want to just roast the tires to burn off some steam? She'll
do that and then some. It is fed by a new Holley Blue electric fuel pump. To keep her cool he installed a new
aluminum radiator. The 350 Turbo transmission was also rebuilt and functions flawlessly. She shifts through gears
with ease. He also bought and installed a brand new Ron Francis wiring harness. She does have four wheel disc
brakes all the way around. All of which work exceptionally well. The Ford 9' rear end also works flawlessly. He
also bought a new power steering setup for it which also works flawlessly.
The interior was completely tore down with the rest of the car at the beginning of the build. So all of it
was reupholstered. From the carpet to the headliner, it is all new. The tilt steering column along with the
brand new wood grain steering wheel, all new. When you first climb in, you immediately smell just how new it is.
It is quite comforting.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
