This 1970 Big Block 454 RestoMod has had a tremendous overhaul done to it and has been garage kept in a temperature regulated garage. The recent restoration was completed January, 2013. As soon as the car was delivered, the entire interior was stripped. All new floors were welded throughout the vehicle along with a complete new undercoat. The car was then lined with custom cut Dynamat material throughout all the floors, doors and trunk. Custom fabricated shoulder seatbelts were installed in the front and rear of the car. Then, the seats all received new cushion and a special paint was applied. The wiring was redone where needed. A new steering crank shaft was installed along with a 1970 SS steering wheel. The AC unit was checked and fully functioning. A new Retro classic style head unit was installed along with 2, 4x6 JBL speakers as well as 2, 6x9 JBL speakers in the rear. 2 Amps with a 10” subwoofer were custom fit in the trunk along with all wiring. New door handles and window crank shafts were installed as was the rear deck meshing. The 3 speed shifter was rewired along with all wiring to front and rear lights as well as reverse lights. The interior was then reassembled with updated headliner, door panels and carpet. It was then onto adding 4 disc brakes, shocks and springs. An air-ride suspension was installed along with an adaptor in the trunk to raise or lower the suspension. An entire new fuel line from front to back was assembled as was a new rear axle, front and rear suspension with a Posi differential. The chrome, large off-set AmericanRacing rims were installed on the vehicle. Inside the engine, the engine was tested, everything was properly aligned, and a new battery and battery wiring was complete. All new cabeling with heat wraps were installed for protection from this massive engine. Additionally, a new, large, chrome alternator was installed to handle the power this car outputs. The horn was customized with an Dixie trumpet air horn inside the front grill. All bulbs outside the Chevelle were replaced as was the front hood latch. The final step besides the MasterFlo duel exhaust, was to add an Electronic Muffler Bypass, or cutout with an electronic switch. This allow you to not only increase the air outflow but sound from this beast of an engine. Windows and window trim was tested and resealed where necessary. Many other little tweaks were also done along the way. The engine and paint were complete prior to me purchasing the car however I have kept it garage kept and fully washed and waxed at all times. If you are looking for an amazing on the frame restauration where no expense was spared on updating a 1970 Chevelle Big Block 454 with a 3 speed 400 Trany, then this is the car for you.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.

'Baby Driver' is a car chase movie set to music

Mon, Mar 13 2017

The Fate of the Furious is certainly the 6,000-pound SUV in the garage of automotive movies, but that doesn't mean gearheads are starved for options. The upcoming film Baby Driver looks to be a winner for car guys, featuring exciting chases with cars including a "hawk-eye" Impreza WRX, a Dodge Challenger, and a 1980s Chevy Caprice. The movie is written and directed by Edgar Wright, whom you may know as the man behind movies such as Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. And based on the two trailers released so far, seen above and below, it's about a young man by the name of Baby, who is a getaway driver for criminals. He's apparently the best in the business, and the secret to his success is the music he listens to while he's driving. He also wants out, but his boss, played by Kevin Spacey, has no intention of letting him go. Spacey is one of a number of major stars in the film, including Jamie Foxx and John Hamm. The driving action shown in the trailers definitely looks entertaining. The WRX is seen doing an array of drifts and J-turns. There is some driving precision on display here that wouldn't be out of place in a Gymkhana video. And it looks like Wright's attention to detail in his shots and transitions, as well as some solid comedy relief, are all going to be present. The film comes out this August.

GM cutting vehicle trim options to save money for electrification

Sun, Mar 1 2020

Information continues to filter out about GM's plans based on comments the automaker made during its Capital Markets Day event in February. GM President Mark Reuss said the company's push to save money by rationalizing the number of build combinations will continue in 2020, carrying on the work done in 2019. As GM Authority covers, last year, the carmaker cut 3,500 components across model lines, a 12% drop in the number of parts it needed to stock in its plants. Reuss used the next-generation Chevolet Equinox and GMC Terrain as examples for more cost efficiencies, saying build possibilities — which include international markets and their options Â— will be cut by more than 50%, and use more shared parts. "We will reduce total trim levels on Equinox and Terrain from eight to six," Reuss said, "reduce engine variants from 11 to 5, reduce build combinations from more than 200 to less than 100 per program, and see significant cost savings of an already paid-for architecture that took the mass out, helping us self-fund electrification programs." GM will plow a large amount of the money it saves into its ambitious EV program. In 2017, the automaker said it intends to have 20 electric vehicles on the market by the end of 2023, some of which could be shared between brands. An automotive analyst at Seeking AlphaÂ and a piece in AutomobileÂ attempted to put specifics to what we should expect. As Automobile points out, the first two EVs in the 20-car program are already on sale, being the Ariv Meld and Ariv Merge eBikes available in Belgium and The Netherlands. We've seen the Cruise Origin autonomous rideshare taxi, although we don't know when it will hit the road. The next three, which we should see in the metal shortly, are two Cadillac EVs and the GMC Hummer EV pickup. The Cadillac pair are expected to be sized like the XT4 and XT5, and along with the Hummer, should hit the market starting in late 2021.
