Original 1966 Chevelle Super Sport. This is a true RUST FREE 138 VIN car and it has the 396 big block NOM motor (casting number 3999290) with a turbo 400 auto transmission. I suspect the motor is bored and stroked given how strong it runs but I don't know this for a fact, as I have not been inside the motor. The cylinder heads are casting number 3856208 with big rectangular ports (most likely from a 1965 396/425 HP or Z-16/L37 Chevelle) and from the VIN (138176Z) we know this is a true, California Super Sport car manufactured at the Freemont, California plant. The firewall Trim Tag paint code (AA) indicates an original Tuxedo Black exterior color while the trim code (763) indicates it was originally supplied with Black Vinyl Bucket Seats. This car is rust free. While the car currently has a Turbo 400 auto trans, it was originally a 4-speed car and even has the clutch pedal assembly still in place. This would be an easy conversion if you wanted to go back to a manual transmission set up.

This car was built for pro-street and does drive good on the street. It has the fiberglass hood, trunk, and bumpers. Has Center Line Wheels , It also has a 4-link rear suspension with a set of Mickey Thompson 29X12.50-15LT tires that have some tread remaining, while still leaving room for a set of much wider tires if you wanted to mount them. It has a 4-link rear suspension with a 12 bolt rear end. Front power disc brakes with drilled and slotted front rotors, 7in. Dual diaphragm booster and rear drum brakes, stops great. The rear was tubbed for bigger tires and wheels and the job was done in a very professionally manner. The original black back seat base cushion and seat back are included with the car.

This Big Block motor runs very strong with a ratchet / slapstick B&M shifter making it a blast to drive. While I don't know all the details of the motor build, this is one of the strongest (and best sounding) drivetrains I've heard. The former owner / builder says it is running 13:1 compression. It has a Holley Strip Dominator single plane intake, with a Holley (List 4780-2) 800 CFM carburetor and Crane roller-rockers with huge headers and mufflers. MSD Ignition box with pro billet distributor and msd coil. Electric fuel pump. The previous owner also told me that it has 4:10 gears to put the power down. Here is a link a video to give an idea of how strong this motor sounds (http://youtu.be/rVHGw8j-1_k), but it still doesn't capture it as well as it does in person. This car is an absolute head-turner when it idles by with the nasty sounding motor.

The interior is clean as well. It still has racing bucket seats and driver side racing seat belts, the carpet is clean, and the headliner is clean and still in place. It has the optional full factory dash gauge package with two supplemental, after market (temperature and oil pressure) gauges mounted under the dash with a functioning fuel pressure gauge mounted directly in front of the driver's line of sight. It has an aftermarket tachometer mounted on the steering column that needs to be better attached to the column. The radio is missing though the dash does not appear to have ever been cut in anyway. All the glass windows are operational and in place. The interior door panels (and rear panel behind the rear seat between the wheel wells) have been replaced with nice aluminum panels but could be replaced with factory door panels if wanted to put it back to a stock configuration. Stainless steel sill plates.

The body of the car is in great shape. Base coat clear coat paint. All lights work. All trim is in great shape. There is no rust that I can find on the car. The black paint has a nice gloss, but has some nicks and surface scratches.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
