1965 Chevrolet Corvair 500
Up for sale is my 1965 Chevy Corvair 500 that I personally restored for a friend. Things dont turn out like they should sometimes so we have to sell it. This car was bought from a wrecking yard in Las Vegas and it had been sitting their since 1975 and still has the original Nevada plates. I have pictures of the restoration process just send me your email and I can send them if you are interested. It was taken apart completely and sandblasted inside and out and underneath. Mike Lucas from Pharump Nv did all the body work and paint. He smoothed both front and rear bumpers smothed out the front end by taking out the hump for the front license plate and turn signals. Then he smoothed out the dash and shaved off the wiper blades. Next the door handles were shaved as wheel as the gas door and rerouted it to the trunk. The emblems were all shaved except for the rear deck lid 140 emblem. The rear also had exhaust holes cut out for the dual headers. Then painted a Brilliant Bright Silver. The front suspension has been completely rebuilt with new ball joints,bushings,tie rod ends,wheel bearings,speedo cable,shocks and new brake shoes, wheel cylinders and hardware. Next it received a new fuel tank and sending unit with all new rubber hoses and clamps. The I rebuilt the rear suspension with some new hardware, new bushings, rebuilt rear bearings, new springs, new shocks and new brake shoes wheel cylinders and hardware. Axles were rebuilt with new universal U joints. Next was installing the freshley rebuilt 140hp engine. All the shrouds have been powder coated and everything else either blasted or repainted. The carbs are freshley rebuilt by Marty Katz and the engine was built by the Corvair Doctor. It has a rebuilt posi diff with a offenhouser polished cover/breather and a rebuilt 2 speed powerglide from Clarks Corvairs. The engine also received Offy valve covers and oil pan with a pair of Clarks Ultimate Headers. Also has rebuilt correct 140hp distributor with electronic ignition and new motor and trans mounts. Next it recived a brand new set of Boss Motorsports 18x8 and 18x10 with brand new Falken tires. Then all the trim has been professionally repolished, new tail light lenses, new winsheild and original T3 headlamps. Also has all new weather strips rubber bumbers and fuzzies. The interior has been completely redone first we replaced the front bench with two bucket seat from another 65 Corvair and recoverd with the non 500 interior all covers bought from clarks. All the trim has either been polished or replated including the wood steering wheel. Rebuilt speedo and dash colored keyed. New headliner dome light and carpet. The entire floor boards from back to front are coverd with Dynamate insulation. It has Auto-Loc door poppers installed as wheel for the keyless entry. All the wiring harnesses were also replaced engine, under dash, engine ect. It does have a few scratches and nicks from moving it around from one garage to another as I had brought this car with me when I moved back to Cali from Vegas. The floors have also been replaced but not done to the best of my liking. They are secure just were done sloppy. The vent windows I think need new rubber seals and handles. The engine was just tuned by Dave Statland and runs great the car only has 26 miles on it. Im sure I have left things out so if you are intrested send me a email with whatever questions you might have.
Thank you for looking and bid to win!

GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
