Up for auction is a one-of-a-kind Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe. The changes I made were done for reliability, and drive-ability. The frame is the only thing that has 117,000 miles on it, since all else has been changed or upgraded. I am the second owner of this car. I HAVE ALL THE RECEIPTS, AND LOG BOOK, SHOWING EACH AND EVERY CHANGE THAT I MADE.

The engine was installed in the Spring of 2006. It is a 383 stroker Small Block Chevrolet, only has about 12K miles on it. It was built to my specifications by an engine shop in Portland, Oregon. I personally verified every clearance and dimension prior to building it. It has a 9.33 compression ratio, so I could run 87 octane while cruising on the highway. The quench area has been optimized so it wouldn't be octane sensitive. The heads are Air Flow Research, with 195CC chambers. The intake is an Edelbrock Super Ram, which flows significantly more air than the tubular runners, which is why I went with it, along with an Edelbrock 52MM throttle body. It also has Edelbrock tubular headers, which have Jet Hot coated. It has a GM serpentine setup from a 1992 Camaro. There are two 16" Ramcharger electric fans mounted, behid the just-new radiator with a lifetime warranty. The engine does not smoke, nor burn any oil.

As far as the drive-train goes, the transmission was built up locally by Govednik Transmissions. It was built to Bruce WE4s specifications for the Buick Gran National cars. This includes extra overdrive bands, clutches, and ball-bearing pieces to replace the plastic ones. It has an 11" converter, stall speed listed as 2400-2600, purchased from there also. This only has about 14K miles on it. The car has a Denny's 3" steel driveshaft. The original differential gears, which were 3.73, were replaced with 3.23 for better mileage while driving to car events. I still have the original ones and carrier also.

The interior is in great conditions, with NO rips, tears, burns, or damage. I added a custom Autometer dashboard, since the original gauges are notorious for being inaccurate. I replaced the headliner just a few years ago also. All the power seats, windows, trunk, and locks work.

The car was cleaned and repainted within the last 10 years, also in the original color white enamel. There are no dents, rust, or major damage anywhere. It does have the usual minor nicks and scratches from use though. The windshield is only two years old, and the windows have been tinted, to the legal limits in Wisconsin; which means they aren't too dark for normal use! The stereo is a Pyle, 45 watt, 4-channel AM-FM, CD unit. I also mounted a 10" sub-woofer in the trunk, with a 200-watt amplifier for it. All the speakers have been upgraded from the stock ones.

The tank is a custom made one, that I designed, along with an aluminum welder. It holds 20.6 measured gallons, the stock being 17.5. It is smaller than the stock one, and bolts in the same location. It is angled slightly so all the gas will drain to the sump since the tank is baffled too. It has a custom-built in-tank sump and pump, which has a return line and vent. I mounted a spare pump, to the outside, to ease repair if the internal one goes out. You switch two lines, the power plug, and you're off again! If you wish to hide the tank, just paint it black and no one will be the wiser.

Lines have been run to a 10# Nitrous Oxide tank mounted in the trunk, and it has passed tech at my drag strip. A manual switch triggers it now, but an electronic controller is mounted, but I never got it connected. I also have a remote bottle opener which has not been mounted yet, but included.

As you can see, I built this car for reliability versus all-out power. It wouldn't take much to add more since the foundation is there. This car has only been driven in the summers, hence the low mileage on the drive-train. All the ball joints, brakes, bushings, etc, were replaced in the last 3 years, and an alignment done. The tires are only a few years old with low mileage, and were rated very highly by Tire Racks surveys a few years ago.

Nissan Leaf sales get January jump as Chevy Volt trends downward

Mon, Feb 3 2014

The cold January sales dip hit both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt last month, but when compared 2014 to 2013's first-month-of-the-year sales totals, one of the two early plug-in vehicles obviously came out on top. The top Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months. Last year, the Leaf sold just 650 units in January, but it managed to move 1,252 last month, a 92.6-percent increase over 2013 but a big drop from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. Paige Presley over at Nissan told AutoblogGreen that the Leaf has now broken sales records for 11 months straight and that, "we see unique seasonality with some December pull-ahead demand based on federal and state tax incentives." The number one Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months, moving back to San Francisco. That change could be short-lived. "We had some inventory constraint issues early in the month in Atlanta with end-of-year demand depleting stock," Presley said. "By the time we resolved that, the weather hampered sales." There was not as much good news on the Chevrolet front. Last month, the Volt sold 918 units, down from 1,140 in January 2013 and 2,392 in December 2013. It also marks the first time the Volt has sold in the three-digit range since January 2012, when it sold 603 copies. That string of solid months means that the plug-in hybrid has a roughly 12,000-unit lead over the EV since the two cars brought plug-in vehicles back to the mass market all the way back in December 2010. We will have our full report of January's green car sales up soon.

Motor Trend wheels the 2015 Corvette Z06

Tue, Nov 25 2014

The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is capable of some absolutely wild metrics. Want proof? Carlos Lago from Motor Trend is here to break it all down. 60 miles per hour? 3.2 seconds. 60 to 0? 91 feet. Lateral acceleration? A staggering 1.16g, a figure that is the highest MT has ever recorded for a vehicle that isn't a race car. It's an utterly astonishing piece of work, this Z06, and just when you think it can't possibly get any more impressive, Randy Pobst hustles an auto-equipped Z06 around Road Atlanta in just 1:30. Aside from the eight-speed auto, Pobst's Z06 had the most aggressive aerodynamic package, the so-called Stage III. Take a look at the 650-horsepower Z06 in Motor Trend's latest video.
