1973 Chevrolet Chevelle on 2040-cars
Arcata, California, United States
I recently obtained this vehicle from the guy who brought life to it. He got the vehicle about 5 years ago - an SS roller with all original rust free and straight sheet metal, original interior, etc. A low mileage 454 engine(4 bolt main) and TH400 3 Speed Automatic transmission were taken from an 80s Chevy pickup. As you can see from the photos he spared little expense. He tried to keep as much of the original vehicle as possible - only redoing those items that needed attention. The exterior paint was re-done - a beautiful black - the paint is like glass - easily a $5K + paint job. The interior is extremely nice - the car retains its original SS door panels and rear seat. Restoration included a custom dash pad, new matching upholstery on the front seats(factory swivel buckets), new carpet and headliner. Upgrades to the 454 include the following: General Motors Dual Plane high rise manifold, Edlebrock 800 CFM carb, HEI distributor, Hooker Headers, 2.5 dual Flowmaster Exhaust, large aluminum radiator, Transgo Shift kit. The car has a 3.55 positraction rear end. New parts include water pump, belts, hoses, alternator, starter, tires, KYB rear shocks, U joints, rebuilt front disc brakes. It also has new rubber seals at both doors and trunk. Newer tires sitting on vintage Centerline staggered wheels. You wont find any rust on this Fremont CA built Chevelle. The car has mostly been sitting in a garage, driven rarely since completion - the owner found a new project and this one was taking up the garage space so had to go. With that being said it will probably need some tweaks here and there but the car is extremely solid, has plenty of power and can be driven and enjoyed as is. The car has Power brakes, power steering and power windows - all work as they should. Gauges work in a blend of factory gauges and after market(Example - factory tach does not work but the large lower tach does work). I

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
