THE CAR HAS BEEN 100% FULLY RESTORED,WITH NO CHEAP COMPONENTS WHAT SO EVER, NOTHING BUT THE BEST, I BUILT THE CAR MAINLY TO TAKE TO CAR SHOWS BUT IT ALSO HAS BEEN TO THE DRAG STRIP SEVERAL TIMES. THE CAR RAN INTO THE HIGH 10'S WITHOUT SLICKS,NOT BAD IF YOU ASK ME.

FOR SAFETY I ALSO INSTALLED LEVERS OUTSIDE OF THE CAR TO , TO OPEN IN CASE OF A EMERGENCY OR IF THE CAR LOSES BATTERY POWER, AND IT IS REQUIRED AT MOST RACE TRACKS TOO. I ALSO HAVE A BACK SEAT AND CARPET KIT AND HEADLINER KIT, BUT I NEVER INSTALLED THEM BECAUSE I LIKED THE WAY THE CAR LOOKED AND I GET ALOT OF COMPLEMENTS THE WAY IT IS. ALL AUTO METER GAUGES,FUEL,VOLTS,TEMP,OIL PRESSURE,160 MPH SPEEDO,8,000 RPM TACH WITH ADJUSTABLE SHIFT LIGHT.

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
