71 Monte Carlo 454 Ss Clone Partially Restored Chevrolet A/c 400 Automatic on 2040-cars
Keedysville, Maryland, United States
This is my partially restored 71 Monte carlo, it has a frsh flat top 454 totally rebuilt last spring it has a 500-300 hydraulic cam and steel heads, aluminum valve covers new holly 750 dual feed carb. It has a brand new aftermarket heat and AC unit, I haven't had it charged yet but its ready to go. There's a new aluminum radiator and B&M transmission cooler with stainless lines. The transmission is a rebuilt turbo 400 with a 3200 stahl. It has a high torque starter and all new motor and transmission mounts. I replaced the u-joints in the drive shaft and I rebuilt the rear end new bearings with Yukon 390 gears and Posi unit. There are new Nito drag radials on the rear, with regular radials it wouldn't hook up but now it launches. I put a Holly fuel pump in it with a new line to the engine. It has electric cooling fans on a seperate control relay with temp sensor plus it has a light weight race fan on the water pump. I just had it in the garage and i replaced the front springs and after market tubular control arms with all ball joints and bushings. I painted the calipers and spindle's while it was apart and I replaced the shocks. When I got the car it hasd a bench seat and I replaced it with two cheap bucket seats that recline and I installed a dakota ($800) digital dash cluster which looks real good and i added supplemental gauges under the dash for 2nd reference's. It has a new stereo in with amp and subs but i was taking that out unless you wanted it. There is a blue led light kit under the car as well which looks real cool at night.There's more but it will take to long to list it all.
This car starts right up and runs and sounds great, I never took it to the track so I dont know what it runs but its fast. I have too much going on with life work and other projects so this one needs to go, I hate to sell it but I just don't have money or time to complete it. this cars is mechanically sound all that it needs is paint and some interior upgrades, the interior is good but I would put better seats in it and redo the rear dash the previous owner cut it out to put 4 6x9 speakers in it. The paint is ok now but it has some bubbles and chips here and there plus the soft top had a low spot in it but I was going to take it off and just roll with the hard top look.I didnt complete the flex duct work in the dash for the new ac system, the dash pad comes off easy and the stuff is easy to get to. The previous owner also put a few screws in the trim where the clips broke but they sell trim kits on ebay for $400.00. I have close to 20k in this car and I know that I wont get that for it and my reserve is well below it, please email with any questions comments and concerns and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. The car is in Keedysville MD and depending on how far away you are I can arrange shipping at your expense but I prefer to do the deal in person so you see what your getting. |

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?
Mon, Feb 27 2017We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
