Chevrolet Other Master Deluxe on 2040-cars
Fort Valley, Georgia, United States
The car received an off the frame restoration in 2003. Various improvements have been made since, but not all at once. I have driven the car 19,678 miles since the restoration. The transmission is a regular 700R4, not a racing transmission. This is a show car, not a drag car. Pulling the floor shift lever from locked-up overdrive to 3rd gear and stomping the gas pedal to the floor will scare the daylights out of you, your passengers, and whoever is in the car that you are passing. This car weighs less than 2800 pounds and has over 500 horsepower. It is wicked fast. The transmission has 17,242 miles since it was rebuilt, all with a blower. The engine has 7,689 miles since rebuild. It was professionally built by Savannah Racing in Savannah, GA using forged pistons and rods. Compression ratio is 8.5:1. The blower provides 6 pounds of boost. Overall compression is 12.2:1. Use 97 octane gasoline. A Comp cam and roller rockers were installed. The tires have less than 1,000 miles wear. Tires were bought in 2013. The blower has 12,856 miles. Power assist drum brakes front and rear. Vega box manual steering. Frenched-in rear licence plate holder with 3rd brake light. Two extra brake lights under car for added visibility. This car has working wipers, but I've never used them. I put Rain-X on the windows and the car has only been wet 3 times since 2003. I use Windex and cloth baby diapers to clean the paint.The car was dismantled and painted in 2003. 3 coats of PPG Viper Red and 7 coats or PPG clear. The car was wet sanded down to 3000 grit before polishing. It has always been stored indoors with a cover. It has been driven to several hundred cars shows and cruise-ins. It has the usual rock chips, scratches, blisters, and cracks in the paint. People don't notice them at 6 feet, but you can see them all when close enough to wax the car. The floor pans are solid. No dents. There is NO hood. This car has never had a heater. There is plenty of head room despite the 4 inch chopped top. Your friends will hear the blower whine 2 city blocks away. Be prepared to be mobbed when you arrive at the cruise-in. Gas mileage is 12 city and 15 highway at 55 mph. 2100 rpm at 70 mph. Inside exhaust noise is a nice powerful rumble. The engine does not overpower the radio for a night time cruise. This car is not perfect, but it still has plenty of appeal. Georgia is a Bill of Sale state

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
