I have owned this car for several years it is a ss clone but I believe it has every piece. The paint was just freshend up by rad rides by troy's ex body man about a year and a half ago. That included getting the door jams repainted,new 2 inch steel cowl hood, and all the rock chips fixed and a few blemishes that had come through over the years cost me $2900 including the hood. The interior is the way I got it there are no rips or tears just dated, I just bought an original console and shifter,new gauges and stereo. It has a aluminum 4 core radiator with an electric fan. The engine is the original 283 that has double hump heads,noisy gear drive, has new edelbrock carb,water pump,rear pickup oil pan with a new pump one piece gasket. It has a new hei distributor with msd 6al box.The headers are 1 3/4 hooker super comp headers with 3 inch exhaust that exits in front of the rear tires. The transmission is a newly rebuilt turbo 400 with a new 2800-3200 stall with a trans cooler that is also new. There is also a bolt on doug nash overdrive that works great is operated electronically with a switch on the shifter that looked like it had been rebuilt at some time before I had gotten it. In putting on the overdrive I had to change driveshafts so the other driveshaft will be included if the overdrive was ever taken off all you would need is a short shaft cover and it could be eliminated. The rearend is a 9 inch ford that was narrowed 2 inches and has 3.70 gears,eaton posi and 31 spline moser axles. It has a tubular front clip with aluminum inner fender and a new radiator support. The gas tank is new as is the 3/8ths sending unit. The car has alumatic coilovers all the way around with gm disc brakes in all four corners as well and a chrome rack and pinion steering rack. The fuel and the brake lines are all new. The front has 2 inch drop spindles and the rear is adjustable where the coilovers mount. The rear is a four link with a sway bar and the front and the rear are all heim ends. I had to cut the driveshaft safety loop on top because the driveshaft rubbed when it was put at this height. Also a new optima red top battery last year. The converter is only good for 500 horsepower but the rest of the car is good for 600. I'm sure that i forgot some thing's but there was a 406 i there for awhile that I had nothing but trouble with that's why the 283 got put back in that's why the rest of the drivetrain is so beefy. Sold as is and I'm not looking for trades I already have two other cars that need finishing. Thanks

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.
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.
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
