I found this 70 Chevelle Malibu in an old garage. It has been dissasembled. All of the parts are there, there are bags full of small parts and fasteners that are marked. The cars original colors are red exterior and red interior. It is a Malibu 350, with 350 auto trans. I'm not sure that the motor is original to the car. As you can see someone was planning on cloning the car and making an SS out of it. There is an SS dash, and an SS cowl induction hood that seems to be complete. Also the front brakes have been converted to disc. They also installed new front and rear sway bars. The body has been removed from the frame and sandblasteld and painted. The wheels are original and there is a set of slots with decent tires that go with the car. The front fenders look good, as you can see one or both have been replaced at some point. You can see the GM tag on the inside of one of them. The doors look decent as do the rocker panels. Someone has put in a new one piece floor pan and trunk floor. they are not completley welded in. And there is a second one piece floor pan that goes with the car. The quarter panels have been replaced. The interior is all there, it was a bench seat. There are two steering columns that come with it, they are both colum shift. There are also new inner and outer rear wheel wells, they are not installed. Also there is another radiator support, I don't think I got a pic of it. Looks to me like all the parts are there, also a SS rear bumper pad, and the bumpers are there. Deck lid looks ok. It is an original AC car and all the air cond stuff seems to be there. I may have a set of bucket seats for this car, if interested I'm sure we can get them included. Like I said there are boxes and boxes of parts for this car, like many of us the owner got started on the car and life gets busy and has lost interest in it. Seems a shame not to bring this car back to it's glory days! I hope someone out there has the time and talent to do so!

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.

Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
