71 Monte Carlo 454 Ss Clone Partially Restored Chevrolet A/c 400 Automatic on 2040-cars
Keedysville, Maryland, United States
|
This is my partially restored 71 Monte carlo, it has a frsh flat top 454 totally rebuilt last spring it has a 500-300 hydraulic cam and steel heads, aluminum valve covers new holly 750 dual feed carb. It has a brand new aftermarket heat and AC unit, I haven't had it charged yet but its ready to go. There's a new aluminum radiator and B&M transmission cooler with stainless lines. The transmission is a rebuilt turbo 400 with a 3200 stahl. It has a high torque starter and all new motor and transmission mounts. I replaced the u-joints in the drive shaft and I rebuilt the rear end new bearings with Yukon 390 gears and Posi unit. There are new Nito drag radials on the rear, with regular radials it wouldn't hook up but now it launches. I put a Holly fuel pump in it with a new line to the engine. It has electric cooling fans on a seperate control relay with temp sensor plus it has a light weight race fan on the water pump. I just had it in the garage and i replaced the front springs and after market tubular control arms with all ball joints and bushings. I painted the calipers and spindle's while it was apart and I replaced the shocks. When I got the car it hasd a bench seat and I replaced it with two cheap bucket seats that recline and I installed a dakota ($800) digital dash cluster which looks real good and i added supplemental gauges under the dash for 2nd reference's. It has a new stereo in with amp and subs but i was taking that out unless you wanted it. There is a blue led light kit under the car as well which looks real cool at night.There's more but it will take to long to list it all.
This car starts right up and runs and sounds great, I never took it to the track so I dont know what it runs but its fast. I have too much going on with life work and other projects so this one needs to go, I hate to sell it but I just don't have money or time to complete it. this cars is mechanically sound all that it needs is paint and some interior upgrades, the interior is good but I would put better seats in it and redo the rear dash the previous owner cut it out to put 4 6x9 speakers in it. The paint is ok now but it has some bubbles and chips here and there plus the soft top had a low spot in it but I was going to take it off and just roll with the hard top look.I didnt complete the flex duct work in the dash for the new ac system, the dash pad comes off easy and the stuff is easy to get to. The previous owner also put a few screws in the trim where the clips broke but they sell trim kits on ebay for $400.00. I have close to 20k in this car and I know that I wont get that for it and my reserve is well below it, please email with any questions comments and concerns and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. The car is in Keedysville MD and depending on how far away you are I can arrange shipping at your expense but I prefer to do the deal in person so you see what your getting. |

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
