Here we go. The wife says I have too many toys, so I am listing my beloved Chevelle SS. This beautiful car was a 2 year, full, ground up restoration completed in 2010 and has under 3,000 miles on her. I have owned many nice, classic muscle cars over the years and this is truly the nicest and best driving classic I have seen in a good while. I am the second owner since the restoration. The car is a clone and was done perfectly as such. Now for the goodies. Most of the car was restored with brand new parts. That is to say that most of the car is new even though it's a 1970 muscle car. What parts are not new were reconditioned or rebuilt. The overall condition of the car is a 9.5 with the body being a 10 and the paint at a 9.0. The body is flawless and there isn't a speck of rust anywhere on this car. 100% rust free. It has new fenders, new quarter panels, new floor pan, new hood, new trunk deck lid, new bumpers, new front windshield, and new side view mirrors. All of the trim pieces look like new. It's just a spectacular car that would win almost any local car shows. Paint has been clear coated as well. This car needs absolutely nothing. Power steering and power assist brakes, and air conditioning.

The interior is a solid 9 out of 10 as well. Most of the interior is also new with the exception of some original pieces like the instrument panel, column shift and blinker control. Everything on the car works, including the horns. It even has the original AM/FM radio 8 track player. I don't know if the 8 track player works because I don't have any 8 track tapes. New seats, new headliner, new carpet, new door panels. The seat belts are originals. The steering wheel is not new, but it is an SS wheel. The dash pad is new.

The suspension is restored to stock. New springs, new shocks, new bushings, tie rods and ball joints. It drives like a real dream. Inside the car it's the most comfortable and quiet muscle car I have ever driven. A real pleasure to cruise in and drive. Inside the car you won't hear a single sound, like an annoying squeak or rattle sound. That's because this car was built right.

The drive train is also spectacular. A big block, 454 cubic inch engine drives this sexy car with a Turbo Hydomatic 350 transmission and 4:11 gears in the 10 bolt rear end. It has way more power than anyone would ever need on the street. The rear end was installed with an Eaton posi traction unit. It's not a one legger. It has new tires and wheels. The tires are BFG Radial TA, P275R60/15 in back and P245R60/15 in front. The wheels are American Racing brand wheels.

The 454 was balanced and blue printed and has .030 forged JE pistons, 9.5:1 compression ratio, big GM rods and a GM steel crankshaft. Indexed crankshaft .010, which is a very nice feature. Indexing is part of the blueprint process and is very important so that compression, because of deck height variation due to different stroke between rod journals, can change compression ratios between cylinders. Also swing (degrees apart between rod journals) will change the relationship between the camshaft and crankshaft. If you want more strength and longevity from your engine this is a must. The engine is kept cool with a 4 core radiator and a clutch fan with a proper shroud. It never overheats.

The intake manifold is a new Edelbrock, Performer Air-gap 2 and on top sits a new Edelbrock 750 CFM carburetor. Melling oil pump installed. Hydraulic roller, Crane cam and Isky hydraulic lifters in the top end. Gross lift of the cam is .530/.540. GM oval port heads 049 with stainless steel valves. Crane valve springs and retainers and bronze valve guides. The exhaust has Hooker long tube headers with a 3" exhaust all the way to the tips. The exhaust pipes are aluminized. It even has some open exhaust cut-outs welded into the pipe behind the headers. The ignition system starts the car easily even in cold weather and comes with an HEI distributor and MSD spark plug wires. The car will not need any tuning. It's not running fat or lean and never produces any smoke at all. Oh, and the gas tank is new as well. There is so much awesome stuff that it's kind of hard to remember it all.

Send me your email address and I will send you a link to watch two videos I have showing the car better than still photos can and allowing you the opportunity to hear the car's engine running. I also have many more pictures available than what I was able to post here. A tastefully done and lightly resto-modded car. Whoever wins this car will not be disappointed at all. She's a real beauty and a pleasure to drive. Bid hard and prosper.

The transmission is a TH400 (Turbo Hydromatic 400) and not the 350. I must of had a brain fart when I typed 350.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

GM recalls trucks and SUVs for brake pedal problem

Thu, Feb 11 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall over 473,000 North American examples of the 2015-2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD, and police pursuit versions of the Chevy Tahoe. These include 426,573 vehicles in the US and 46,837 in Canada, according to Reuters. The Problem: The brake pivot nut can loosen over time, which can render the pedal inoperative. This would be a danger to drivers trying to stop the vehicles. In some cases, the "Service Engine Soon" light might come on. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt, and if necessary they will apply adhesive to it and reinstall the part with increased torque. If You Own One: "We expect to start customer notifications shortly," GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog. Related Video: Transport Canada Recall # 2016053 Recall Date 2016/02/04 Notification Type Safety Mfr System Brakes Manufacturer Recall Number 20760 Units Affected The number of vehicles or components affected by the recall. 46,837 Category Light Truck & Van, SUV Recall Details On certain Heavy Duty and Police Pursuit vehicles, the brake pedal pivot nut may become loose, causing the brake pedal to be loose or inoperative. If the brake pedal becomes loose or inoperative, it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, and/or the driver may be unable to safely stop the vehicle through application of the brake pedal, potentially affecting stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt installation to determine whether the vehicle has already received the production remedy. If not, the dealer will add adhesive to the nut, and reinstall the nut at an increased torque. Note: This condition may result in the "Service Engine Soon" light illuminating, and brake lights may stay on longer than expected.
