1955 Chevrolet Resto Mod Now here is an opportunity to take advantage of someone else spending the money and you benefiting from it. This unique resto mod has had over $65,000.00 spent in building it. The vehicle is powered by a V-8 Chevrolet 454 cu. in. big block coupled to a 350 turbo transmission. The interior has no expense spared as it is done nicely in Magnolia leather with brown appointments. The vehicle has power windows, power hood and trunk, power seats, air-conditioning, and touch screen navigation and stereo, just to mention some of the equipment. The exterior is finished in a gorgeous red with carbon fiber appointments. 29" of rubber in the rear propel this great looking automobile down the street. The car is solid including the pans and all body panels. This nicely done vehicle is being sold as to cull the herd a little. Too many toys!!!! I would entertain a partial trade on this fine collectable, but please no junk. I am partial to Harleys, diamonds, gold, silver, or possibly another classic automobile. This vehicle is advertised in our area and I reserve to end the auction early should it sell. I have priced this car waaaay below the invested amount as I realize I over spent. My loss is your gain. No worries as to the driveability of this vehicle. For additional info or pictures to a serious buyer you may contact Jimmy at 727-421-1000.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
