Pro Touring Chevelle 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Cypress, Texas, United States
|
EXTERIOR You are bidding on a true one of a kind 1970 Chevelle Big Block 454 Pro-Touring. We started by taking the entire car down to bare metal and replaced all questionable sheet metal prior to body work. Over 400 hours was invested to achieve this finished product. The Chevelle was finished in PPG 2012 Mercedes Benz Pallidum Silver, Mercedes Charcoal Grey ,and BMW Velencia Orange Pearl for the pin striping. The car was finished using 2500 wet sand paper prior to final buff to assure a brilliant shine. You will notice this color scheme carries on to the rear bumper where a custom bumper pad was hand painted to match. Custom pin striping on the rims and badging completes the overall theme. Overall I would give this car an 8 out of 10 rating on the paint and body. Its not a full blown show car but it’s definitely a high quality driver that can win at your regional car shows. All the Trim, door handles, locks, Front and Rear Glass, Rubbers, Lights etc. have been replaced with new OEM parts.
MECHANICS This car has a brand new ATK Crate Engine rated at 410hp before upgrades.(A Dyno and Full Build Sheet is Included). A full warranty came with the Engine and I believe it may be transferable (I will check with ATK and update listing). Since completion this car only has 600 miles on it and it sounds very aggressive. It features a quick fuel 800 CFM carb, Edelbrock Performance intake, MSD Wires, Custom Long Tube Headers, Vintage Air A/C and Heat, Chrome A/C Compressor, Chrome 1 Wire Alternator, Edelbrock High Flow Water Pump, Chrome Performance Fuel Pump, Chrome 7" Brake Booster with matching Master Cylinder, Chrome Pulleys, 3 Core Champion Aluminum Radiator with Dual Electric Fans/Stroud, New American Wire Wiring Harness for Engine, Custom 2 1/2 Exhaust with Stainless Magnaflow Mufflers, Fresh Rebuild Muncie M21 with Hurst Shifter, Custom Drive Shaft, 12 Bolt Posi Eaton Rear End with 411 gears, New 4 Wheel Disc Brakes all the way around with all new hardware, New Gas Tank, All new Hoses, Belts, Custom Radiator Cover Polished, Billet Spark Plug Holders and lots more. I have driven this car in the heat here in Las Vegas with the Air blowing ice cold in 115 degrees without any issues. This car is mechanically sound. SUSPENSION Everything has been replaced on this suspension from front to back. In the front we installed New Tubular Control Arms Upper and Lower which improve handling and geometry, BMR Performance Progressive 2" Drop Springs, Ney KYB Performance Shocks, Upgrade 1 3/8 Sway Bar with Poly Urethane Bushings, New Front end Kit, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes, New Custom Drive Shaft designed specifically for car, Rear Boxed Pure Muscle Upper and Lower Control Arms, Rear BMR 2" Drop Springs, Front KYB Performance Shocks with rear Air Ride. This cars handling is superior in comparison to stock suspension. This is a great Pro-Touring/Restomod setup that eliminates body roll but still allows you to cruise on the highway without feeling every bump in the road. INTERIOR This Interior is truly "One Of A Kind". It features a combination of Simulated Leather, Perforated Simulated Leather and Suede. The Custom bucket seats have been designed with Grey Suede on the bosters highlighted in a single orange stitch, Perforated inserts double stitched with beautiful French stitching on the seams. Custom Suede Headliner, Rear Deck panel, Custom Double Stitch Trunk Panels, Sound System including: Alpine Amp, Rockford Fosgate 12" Sub, Alpine Bluetooth compatible USB CD Player, Custom kick panels with 6 1/2" Alpine Type R Speakers and Chrome Compaitor. The Dash features a custom brushed Silver Dash Panel with Pro Comp gauges, Chrome Ididit Tilt Steering Column, Billet SS Steering wheel, Custom Dash Pad with French Stitching, Custom color matched Center console, New Window Cranks and Door Handles, Carpet Etc.
CLOSING I have seen a lot of cars sell at a similar price point with stock interiors, stock suspension components, and no upgrades. Over 70,000 and a ton of time and effort went into building this one off car so please bid with confidence.I can assure you this is a "one of a kind" 1970 Chevelle that you wont find anywhere else. It performs better than an original LS5 Big Block, It handles much better, the overall look still stays true to the heritage and spirit of the Chevelle but with a modern streamlined look and overall, the timeless design and execution speaks for itself. I reserve the right to sell this car locally at anytime. This car is sold "As Is" so please make sure you do your homework. Feel free to come in person or have an inspection company view the car for you prior to purchase. Bid with confidence as I have been a member 10 years on ebay with a perfect 100% score. I have sold several cars through ebay and never had one complaint. Feel free to call 314 374 5909 if you have any questions. My name is Moe. I have explained this car to the best of my abilities. Also for serious buyers any additional pictures or info is available upon request. 1000.00 non- refundable deposit is required at the end of auction within 48 hours.
Thanks

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]
Sun, Jan 25 2015UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.
