1957 Chevrolet Black Widow Tribute
57 150 salesman coupe, same cars used for the famous Black Widows [factory built race cars]
this car came from the factory without a rear seat, radio delete, clock delete, and fixed rear windows, same as the widows.
car has a nice running 283 motor, turbo 350 transmission, 605 power steering box, tilt wheel, edelbrock intake and carb, flowmaster mufflers, new windsheild all new window rubbers, new custom made door panels, see spider web design in lower corners, very nice black power / heated leather bucket seats, headliner is in but old, carpets or ok for a driver,

The cars body is very straight and solid some pin holes and a small patch on the passenger front floor, all the floor braces are very good, some rust on the lower inside trunk lid by the seal, solid trunk floor and section between the bumper is nice.

The stainless is very good shape, chrome is old and has some pitting.

The wheel are smoothie style rallys with bow tie center caps painted white like the original black widows, with vintage mickey thompson white letter tires that are like new.

the black on the outside of the car is dp 90 primer, the white is fresh single stage ppg paint wheels where painted with same paint. 

I was going to put a GM crate ram jet motor, aluminum radiator core support and four wheel disc brakes, comes with the new aluminum core support and filler panels. I have too many other projects to finish so i will let her go, the car runs and drives good, someone added a set of coil springs to the rearend still has the original leaf springs this was a old school trick to make the cars corner better they can be removed. 
you can drive it the way it is or restore it too a Black Widow Clone, straight axle Gasser ?
feel free to call with any questions 
Thanks Ron 503-750-2111

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.

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.
