OVER 70K INVESTED!! Custom 2004 Chevrolet Colorado - Coloradical Blessed by GM, Built by a Fanatic Photography by Lance Martz Mini Truckin', April 01, 2005 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Cover Page Owner: Trent Van Arsdalen Ride: '04 Chevrolet Colorado Extended Cab Hometown: Baltimo Trent Van Arsdalen has been working with custom vehicles for the past 16 years. In that time, he's run the gamut of all aspects of building and showing custom trucks and cars. His expertise, however, lies in his talents as an interior-design guru. Over the years, Trent has been responsible for showing vehicles in 14 states and has taken home many awards for his hard work and thoughtful interiors. Last year, Trent was the lucky recipient of an '04 Chevy Colorado Extended Cab, complete with the new Vortec 3500 3.5L inline I-5 engine. His goal was to turn the truck around in record time to debut it at the 2004 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Once the truck was delivered to Trent's Garage Ma-Hall (his massive 2,450 square-foot two-story facility) at Trent's Trick Upholstery in Baltimore, Ohio, the fun began. Using the extensive customer base of McCullough Public Relations, Trent was able to bring all kinds of big players in the automotive aftermarket on board with his project, which made getting the items he needed to make the truck's design become a reality happen faster than he ever imagined. With plenty of the needed products already in hand, Trent started reworking the truck in anticipation of the SEMA Show that was drawing closer by the day. With all the tools he needed to finish the truck, Trent began the insane two-month building spree that turned an otherwise stock Colorado into the showpiece that wound up winning two very prestigious awards at SEMA. To start, the door-handle areas were reworked to allow use of '00 Corvette handles. Once that modification was complete, the truck was handed over to Lynch Concepts for a total of 10 days, where the truck was transformed using the Keller Designs rendering Trent had supplied. Amazingly, the crew at Lynch Concepts really threw down and had the whole truck turned around faster than anyone could have believed. While the truck was at the body shop, Trent was busier than he'd ever been, reworking the door panels and building the center console. The console would be installed between a pair of Interior Supply & Services custom bucket seats that Trent had painstakingly upholstered to work flawlessly with all the other interior modifications. 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Dashboard The truck's suspension was then reworked at Cyrus's Suspension Shack using Air Ride Technologies' components, along with tubular upper control arms from Progressive Automotive. The truck was lowered more than 6 inches from stock in total, without any cutting of the chassis. The new suspension system is truly a bolt-on affair. When the truck came out of Cyrus's, it possessed a new attitude, due to its new altitude, and Trent was eager to move onto the next phase of the truck's development. What was next? Trent cut a gaping hole into the roof as the perfect opening for an Inalfa moonroof to be installed. With that accomplished, he moved on to complete the installation of the truck's new interior, while the truck's stereo system was installed and wired by Dave Planton using Scosche parts and electronic components from Kicker, Dual, Rosen Entertainment, Rostra Controls, and Subtomix. At this point, Trent had a truck on his hands with a completed interior that would make a street-rod owner green with envy, as well as a truck that matched the original rendering in colors. The things that he didn't have, though, were sending him over the edge, with only days to go before the truck was to be loaded onto a trailer and taken to Las Vegas. Ultimately, Trent ended up installing the truck's custom engine cover he'd built and loaded the truck for the trip without custom wheels or front brakes. He made a leap of faith in trusting the companies that had faithfully supported his project build would be there for him at the end of his journey. Luckily, four 20-inch Bonspeed wheels were sitting in Las Vegas when he arrived. He installed the rest of the Stainless Steel Brake Corporation braking components and bolted up the specially built new Bonspeed wheels only hours before driving the truck into the Las Vegas Convention Center to showcase his newest creation. When we asked Trent Van Arsdalen why he built the Coloradical in the first place, he said: "It was the hottest new truck to hit the truck market, and I wanted to be one of the first to build one. I bleed Chevy orange and have been driving them all my life. I've got about eight Chevrolet vehicles right now, and building the Coloradical is a sweet accomplishment I had never experienced to this degree until now." 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Artist Rendering 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Interior 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Wheel 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Side Mirror 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Engine Bay 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Front View 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Sponsors 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Exhaust Tips 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Bed The Lowdown Wheels/Tires 20x8.5-inch Bonspeed Laguna 6 Colorforged aluminum wheels / 245/35ZR20 Bridgestone Potenza S-03 tires Suspension/Chassis Progressive Automotive tubular upper control arms / Air Ride Technologies Shockwave air spring and shock assemblies up front / Air Ride Technologies four-link setup and air springs in the rear / Stainless Steel Brake Corporation's 14-inch CNC-machined slotted front rotors, 13-inch CNC-machined slotted rear rotors, three-piston Force-10 Tri-Power calipers / suspension installation by Cyrus's Suspension Shack in Chillicothe, Ohio 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Paint Body Modifications/Additions Shaved door handles replaced with Corvette handles / all-steel cowl-induction ram-air hood by Reflexxion / Street Scene front-bumper cover / Street Scene roll pan / Street Scene ground effects / Street Scene electric side mirrors / Inalfa model 840 moonroof / Trenz billet grille insert and one-off billet bumper insert / ARE tonneau cover Bodywork/Paint/Graphics Bodywork, paint, and graphics by Lynch Concepts in Chillicothe, Ohio / House of Kolor's Red Persimmon and Sunset Pearl paint / ghosted Chevy bow-tie emblems in the black stripe running front to back, separating the Persimmon and Sunset Pearl hues Interior Phipps Rod & Custom Accessories custom billet pedals / fabricated door panels by Trent's Trick Upholstery / Rostra Precision & Controls seat heaters and backup warning system / Trent's Trick Upholstery custom-fabricated center console / chamois and black Optima leather used throughout / Woodview Automotive Trim accents / custom bucket seats, beige square-weave carpeting, and Optima leather from Interior Supply & Services / Air Ride Technologies E-Ride controller mounted in forward center console / Faze gauges mounted in forward center console / all interior work by Trent's Trick Upholstery in Baltimore, Ohio 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Custom Audio System Stereo Dual stereo head unit (model XDY8125) / Scosche wiring throughout / Rosen Entertainment 10-inch flip-down monitor (with preloaded arcade games on board) in ARE tonneau cover and 7-inch in-dash monitor / Kicker amplifiers / Subtomix subwoofer enclosures / four 12-inch Kicker subwoofers (two in the cab and two in the bed) / two sets of component speakers installed in the cab / one set component speakers installed in the bed Engine/Performance Corsa SS stainless-steel after-cat exhaust system / Airaid air intake system / Airaid throttle-body spacer / |

Just the right Camaro can change your life
Thu, Jan 22 2015Not many people can say that their car directly motivated them into a career, but that's exactly the case for Adam Martin and his 1968 Chevrolet Camaro that he calls Lucy. Martin bought the pony car in primer when he was just 16, and it helped foster his profession in restoring classic cars. Beyond just being a very cool ride for a teenager, every change to Lucy was an opportunity to hone a new automotive skill for Martin. Whether figuring out how to paint a car or building the 454-cubic-inch (7.4-liter) big block V8, the Camaro offered a platform for experimentation. This latest episode of Petrolicious gets personal about the bond between man and machine for this 18-year ongoing project. And even if the story doesn't immediately grab you, Lucy has a great voice and can do a mean burnout.

2015 Chevy Volt gets larger battery, though range remains the same
Sat, Jul 19 2014The Chevrolet Volt isn't changing much for the 2015 model year. According to specifications uncovered by Inside EVs, though, the new Volt's battery does have a slightly larger capacity. According to the spec sheet, this doesn't translate to increased range. Real world driving, though, might tell a different story. The 2015 Volt's battery storage is slightly higher than the outgoing model's, up from 16.5 kilowatt-hours to 17.1 kWh. According to GM's manager of electrification technology communications, Kevin Kelly, speaking to Green Car Reports, the increased capacity is "a late change done in the cell... just another continuous improvement to surprise and delight our customers." The stated electric range, however, stays at 38 miles. Inside EVs followed up on its original report, and found that drivers could see some advantage to the battery tweak. When they spoke to Kelly, he told them, "As a result of this change, we would expect that some customers may see a slight improvement in overall EV range." It's worth noting that when battery capacity increased from 16 kWh to 16.5 kWh for the 2013 Volt, electric range increased by three miles to the current 38, while MPGe went from 94 to 98. The price of the 2015 Chevrolet Volt remains steady, at $34,995. The actual cost to the customer is considerably less with the $7,500 federal tax credit, as well as any local incentives.
2015 Chevy Volt will be available with 4G LTE
Tue, Jan 14 2014General Motors teased consumers two years ago when it showed off a Chevrolet Volt decked out with 4G LTE connectivity. More details were finally unveiled this month at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas: the 2015 Chevy Volt will have a 4G LTE option and will offer consumers an as-yet-unpriced option with much faster wireless internet connection and more smartphone apps. GM's OnStar has teamed up with AT&T to come up with several mobile apps alongside the roadside assistance. The Volt joins the 2015 Corvette, Impala and Malibuz models that will debut with a 4G LTE option this year. The first four 4G ChevroLTE models will be released this summer and will be joined by the Spark (EV and gas versions), Equinox, Silverado and Silverado HD. GM has yet to announce whether any Cadillac or Buick models will get the 4G option. Chevrolet Accelerates to 4G LTE Speeds in 2014 Bowtie brand models in U.S. and Canada to get OnStar 4G LTE by summer LAS VEGAS – Starting this summer, Chevrolet will have some of the fastest vehicles on the roads, and that has nothing to do with horsepower. Chevrolet drivers will be enjoying high-speed data - made possible by a new OnStar 4G LTE connection in the vehicle, running on AT&T's network, the nation's fastest and most reliable 4G LTE network. Chevrolet today announced at the Consumer Electronics Show that the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette, Impala, Malibu, and Volt would be the first General Motors' vehicles to come optionally equipped with OnStar 4G LTE. They will be followed by the Equinox, Silverado, Silverado HD, Spark and Spark EV. In the Canadian market, OnStar with 4G LTE will be introduced on the Chevrolet Trax as well. The majority of the 2015 Chevrolet lineup in the U.S and Canada will have a 4G LTE connection built-in at vehicle launch. More models will be announced later this year. "Chevrolet is expected to implement the broadest deployment of 4G LTE in the automotive industry," said Alan Batey, senior vice president of Global Chevrolet. "The fact that OnStar with 4G LTE will be available in models that range from the Chevrolet Spark to the Silverado to the Corvette, is indicative of our broad commitment to deliver more value and convenience through smart technology applications.
