Up for auction is an absolutely
stunning 1984 Chevy Monte Carlo SS – PRO STREET. This BEAST is a complete frame
off custom build which has been 10+ years in the making. The owner has invested
over $100K in parts alone, not including the 100’s of labor hours that he spent
on the build himself. The meticulous detail that went into this build is what
really sets it apart from other “PRO STREET” cars out there today. All the
receipts and literature for the installed parts and accessories are available
and will be passed onto the winning bidder. The
interior was completely reupholstered floor to ceiling with beautiful blue
fabric. Even the rear seat was custom cut and re-installed which is typically
not seen on a tubbed car. It has a “Dakota” digital dash that looks like it
belongs there from the factory. It gives you a clear view of MPH, RPM’s, fuel
percentage, and water temperature. The Hurst shifter is surrounded by a hand-made
chromed aluminum console and has a custom made dual switch shift handle for
line lock and over drive. The steering wheel is made by “Banjo” and is removable
which is a good anti-theft feature. Call, Text or Email

moving to the outside of the vehicle. The frame is straight as an arrow and
there is NO rust anywhere. The exterior white paint is flawless and boasts
beautiful hand painted decals that really accent nicely the theme of the car. This
Monte rides on polished aluminum “Centerline” wheels wrapped in Micky Thompson
rubber. It has front 12” and rear 13” disc brakes (with Emergency Brake) for
superior stopping ability. This Monte truly rides like a Cadillac with its full
front and rear “Hotchkis” suspension and “Strange” axles. Finally,
to get into the good stuff. The car is powered by a 502 cubic inch big block crate
engine. The heads were ported to match the polished aluminum “Stealth” intake
manifold. It has a turbo 350 transmission built for 1000 HP. The transmission
has “Gear Venders” for over and under drive to make it a full manual 6-speed. It
has a bullet proof 9” rear with 4.11 gear ratio. Nascar radiator with twin
fans. Hooker headers with a custom made full stainless steel 3” exhaust. Handmade
stainless steel gas tank. Custom made carburetor intake which pulls extra air
off the cowl. There’s a A/C idle solenoid to kick up RPM’s when the air
conditioner is on. 120 AMP, 1 wire alternator. The battery shuts off with the
key. Call, Text or Email
Ryan Fallon - 267.228.8150 – Ryanfallon2@gmail.com There
are so many custom parts on this Monte that it is nearly impossible to remember
them all let alone list them all so I just mentioned a few. The engine dyno-ed out at 605 HP @ 6500 RPM.
This car was built for show, not for racing however you could make a few modifications
to make it track worthy (roll cage and parachute.) But that would really take
from the cars integrity. This Monte Carlo is truly a “Hot Rod Family Car.” It
has less than 150 miles on it since it was complete and it has never been
raced. It has been entered into many local car shows where it has won award
such as “best in show” and “best motor.” Polished aluminum and stainless steel.
Almost every bolt under the hood that could be has a Chevy insignia bolt head.
It runs on pump gas (93 octane) but will certainly take racing fuel. The car
has been garage kept since the build began and has never seen the rain. A
little about the owner/builder… This multiple award winning show stopper is
owned by and was built by master mechanic Joe “Slim” Ulanowski. He has been
building custom/race cars for well over 40 years and his garage Academy
Automotive which is located in Northeast Philadelphia has been open since 1976.
He has built and restored numerous award winning vehicles in his career. Slim
and Academy Automotive are proud sponsors of the wounded warrior project in
which “Slim” had his hand in the building of the Wounded Warrior Projects 1969
Chevy Camaro SS. Please
contact Ryan Fallon with any questions you may have or if you would like to
schedule an appointment to see the car. I have taken well over 100 pictures
which I will gladly send you if you provide your email address. Third party
inspections are welcome! A $500 deposit via paypal will be required within 48 hours of auction closing. Payment for vehicle will be made either by cash in person, cashiers or personal check (vehicle will not leave until check clears sellers account) or bank transfer (preferred.) Buyer is responsible for pickup/transportation of the vehicle after funds have cleared sellers account. Call, Text or Email

The biggest gas-guzzlers of 2024: 'The Meanest List' is the opposite of greenest cars
Thu, Mar 14 2024In some circles — especially some automotive circles — bigger is better. This explains the Hummer, for example. In its so-called “Meanest List” of a dozen models, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) makes no apologies for berating “the worst-performing mass market automobiles” sold in 2024 in the U.S. The most diminutive car on the list is a Chevy Corvette Z06. At the top of this particular heap is the Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, a gas-powered SUV that the environmental agency says was “the worst-performing vehicle of the more than 1,200 models assessed by Greener Cars and has an annual fuel cost over $4,000.” Not to mention its MSRP of around $184,000. Rank Make & Model Powertrain Green Score MSRP Estimated Annual Fuel Cost* 1 Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 Gas 20 $184,000 $4,242 2 Ram 1500 TRX 4x4 Gas 22 $98,335 $3,819 3 Ford F150 Raptor R Gas 24 $79,975 $3,777 4 Cadillac Escalade V Gas 26 $152,295 $3,388 5 Dodge Durango SRT Gas 26 $74,995 $3,332 6 Jeep Wrangler 4dr 4X4 Gas 27 $35,895 $3,260 7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4x4 Gas 28 $91,945 $3,058 8 Mercedes-Benz G550 Gas 28 $143,000 $3,186 9 GMC Hummer EV SUV EV 29 $98,845 $1,746 10 GMC Sierra Gas 29 $37,700 $3,069 11 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Gas 30 $114,395 $3,169 12 Mercedes-Benz Maybach S680 Gas 30 $234,300 $3,031 *ACEEE analysis using EIA data of the annual cost of driving 15,000 miles In terms of numbers, the dirty dozen of the meanest includes seven SUVs and three trucks. Lonely at the middle of the list is the sole electric, the GMC Hummer EV, which weighs in at 9,000 pounds. The council notes that “though EVs have lower emissions than similarly sized gasoline models, the Hummer demonstrates that size and efficiency, not just fuel source, are important factors in a carÂ’s environmental impact.” ItÂ’s also worth reminding prospective buyers that the average fuel cost of a vehicle on the “Greenest List” eats up only a fifth of the fuel cost of a vehicle on the Meanest List, “showing that greener options can also be more affordable.” The ACEEE also put out a "Greener List" of efficient gasoline and hybrid cars that don't require plugging in. By the Numbers Green Cadillac Chevrolet Dodge Ford GMC Hummer Jeep Maybach Mercedes-Benz RAM Emissions Fuel Efficiency Green Automakers Truck SUV Electric Hybrid
Smaller Cars Endure Big Problems On Crash Test
Wed, Jan 22 2014In a crash test of 11 of the smallest cars on the market, only one vehicle received an acceptable rating. The rest received marginal or poor ratings in the study, providing evidence that supports a widely held notion that smaller cars are among the least safe on the road. No other vehicle group has performed as poorly on a new crash test than these mini cars, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the nonprofit group that conducted the testing. The latest results of which were released Wednesday. The Chevrolet Spark was the only car earning an overall "acceptable" rating on the small-front overlap test, and even that vehicle had its shortcomings, IIHS said. "Small lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage," said Joe Nolan, the senior vice president for vehicle research at IIHS. "That's why it's even more important to choose one with the best occupant protection. Unfortunately, as a group, minicars aren't performing as well as other vehicle categories." The Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris and certain Ford Fiesta models all received "marginal" overall grades on the test, while the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit all earned "poor" ratings. Results from these sub-compact cars fare much worse than vehicles sized just a little bit bigger, IIHS said. Among 17 cars evaluated in the small category, five earned "good" ratings and five more earned "acceptable." Only introduced a year ago, the small-front overlap test has quickly become a key indicator of differences in automotive safety. IIHS introduced it as a way to replicate what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with a tree or utility pole at 40 miles per hour. In the real world, these sorts of accidents are more dangerous than others, in part because they bypass the front-end crush zones on most cars. TOP 5Most Researched Sedans 2013 Honda Accord MSRP : $21,680 2013 Hyundai Sonata MSRP : $20,895 2013 Nissan Altima MSRP : $21,760 2014 Honda Accord MSRP : $21,955 2013 Toyota Corolla MSRP : $16,230 Automakers have been rushing to make design changes to the front ends of their cars. Without a grade of acceptable or better, they cannot qualify for the IIHS' overall Top Safety Pick+ honor, given annually to the safest models on the market.
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
