I have tons of pics of this car, there is way too much to see with only being allowed 24 pics on ebay - please contact me via ebay and I will send pics. The yellow has a fine gold metallic and highlights very well. BEST of everything with clear title in hand and can easily be put on the street. Car has never been raced so I don't have ET's or 60' times. Reserve is set below half of investment. Top of the line parts with over 72K invested in this very nice 55 Chevy with amazing fabrication and aluminum work. SB2.2 377 cubic inch all aluminum small block Chevy - 12 degree valves, this is the motor designed by GM for Winston cup racing. Built by Rhyne racing in Gary Indiana. Just Freshened, have not dyno tested since freshening motor, but, have dyno sheet from original build date in '09. Dyno was 754.8 HP at 7600 rpm and 561 ft-lbs at 6500 rpm with 830 carb. now running new Holley 750 pro series carb. Lots of paperwork that comes with car. Complete Peterson dry sump oil system.

All fiberglass is very straight with NO ripples, waves or mismatched body lines. You will think they are steel. NOT some old race car - it shows very well - voted top 10 drag car at Super Chevy Magazine's Nationals at Indy (kind of ironic since it has never actually made a pass) guess they went off of set up. No dings or scratches - Very nice, deep, crisp reflection paint. All Chrome and trim very nice except the tail light rings which have light pitting. The Chassis is a professional build with chrome moly tig welded cage and all tin work fits perfectly even around cage - no gaps or caulking of any kind. Cage was certified to 8.50 in '09 - '10 but never renewed. Will certify no problem if that is the route you want to go. The carpet is actually black tweed see picture - looks very good. Any flaws on the car are as follows and are pictured in pics 1) Fiberglass rear bumper -spider web checks in the paint in a couple spots. 2) Drivers side interior door panel has small ding. 3) Chrome tail light rings very mild pitting. I have included pics of all these. I am getting out of cars and building the house I will retire in. Contact me for all details and I will give you a very accurate and detailed description, I do not have time to waste and I will not waste yours. Car Mileage on odometer is exempt - It shows roughly 19,000 on odometer but we all know that is not accurate. I will give you the vin when you contact me. Shipping is buyers responsibility but I will make sure car is loaded properly. Very nice car with way more invested than the low reserve price. Chris.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain
Sat, Aug 9 2014Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?
Sun, Jan 10 2016Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
