1969 SS 396 Chevelle convertible! I bought this car late 2000 and this is what I know, was told it was restored in 1998 and the speedo was put at 0 it now has 8400 miles on it, I have put over 3000 of those on it. It has numbers matching rear end (original to car but posi added) numbers matching Turbo 400 trans (original to car) the engine is a real 1969 396 engine (feb. build date, car is late 1968 build) it has been decked in rebuild, was told it was a CE replacement for the car, but have no paperwork. I do have the POP and everything I have stated checks out. This car is really done right, I was told only NOS GM parts were used in the restoration and some crazy story about a $700 dollar NOS A/C hose. The engine compartment must be done perfect as every time I take it to a show guys take pic for their restoration. Everything works on the car but the A/C which did work when I got it but now it does not blow cold. I do have the front bumper guards and the 14" rallies with trim rings & white letter tiger paws on them (I like the 15" vette rallies better both go with car) I'm 6'4" and have add brackets so the front seat can go further back and recline as seen in the pics, they will be removed and it will be put back to stock. Color combo speaks for itself and is original colors for the car. I have added air bags to give it a bit of a higher stance (not much). The rosewood wheel is cracked at the top seam, car has the gauge pkg. white manual convertible top with glass window and everything else you see in pics. My collection has changed from old muscle to new muscle, this car was the best of the best of my old muscle collection as has been the hardest for me to let go, but a new Shelby is going to replace it after I sell it. You are more than welcome to come over and inspect the car or have an agent for you come I have a lift for your use. There is a little bubble in the paint on the upper passenger side rear quarter panel right next to the trunk lid, I have had body guys tell me they should be able to buff it out, but I didn't want to take the chance. Call with any questions, Brian 847-392-3330

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
