1971 Monte Carlo Ss454 Z20. One Of 1919 Built. Same Owner For Last 26 Years. on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States

1971 Monte Carlo SS454 Z20 LS5 engine with M40 Turbo 400 transmission, F41 front suspension,12 bolt 3:31 posi rear end. Has load level control (compressor not on car but I do have it), factory a/c, power steering, power brakes, bucket seats with console and factory tach and guage package. I've owned this car since 1988 and it has been my summer cruise night car over the years and it has been a very nice driver but it's time to let it go. Since I have owned the I replaced the CE counter engine with a correct CPD code LS5 engine that has been rebuilt and has less than a 1000 miles on it. The engine in the car is correctly dated to this car and was from a 1971 Chevelle SS454 LS5 car which was built the same week as my car. I have the protecto-plate from that car (see pics. both Protecto plates side by side) and all the components from the CE engine match this engine except the short block. The block in this car is now the correct 3963512 block and the CE was a 3999289 block. I also have most of all the service records for this car along with the original window sticker,build sheet,protecto-plate,owners manual and the original brochure the original owner picked the options for the car when buying new. The car was bought here in Elmhust Illinois at Tom Edwards Chevrolet and was Ziebarted from new. The prvious owner was a snow bird so the car went between Illinois and Texas. The car is very solid however when the car was repainted in 1985 it was prepped poorly and the paint is checked and cracked. The car looks good from 10 feet until you get up close therefore the car will need to be stripped and repainted. The good is you can do this at your own pace. The car is totally ready to drive. The bright work on the car is very nice and you will not have to do any panel replacement. The vinyl top has been replaced and at that time the front and rear glass was pulled and resealed. The back glass on the car leaked so there is some minor rust issues behind the rear wheels but a patch will resolve it. No needed quarter replacement. Overall a very nice solid luxury sport muscle car that you can drive and enjoy and take it to the next level. This is a true Z20 SS454 Monte Carlo Super Sport. Not something someone tossed emblems on to claim it a SS. See NADA Guide below and you will see the opening bid is below average retail. I will accept a $500.00 deposit through Paypal but not the entire payment. All funds for balance will have to be cleared before car and title are released to new owner. NO EXCEPTIONS! If you have any questions please call me at 773 744 5998.Thank you. http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/1971/Chevrolet/Monte-Carlo-Super-Sport/2-Door-Hardtop/Values |

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two
Sun, Jun 19 2016We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
