Up for sale is my S-10 Pro-Street Blazer. It has a 383 Stroker motor with a TH-400 trans with a switch pitch converter. A button on the shifter selects either 2000 or 4000 stall. It has a Ford 9in. rear with 4.10 gears, posi and disk brakes. It has 2in. drop spindles on the front. The body is in good condition. There is a small rust spot just behind the drivers side rear wheel and a couple small dings but the doors shut solid. The electric windows work well and the car sits very nice. The interior is very nice. The Cyber-Dyne instrument panel lights up but I have not tried the stereo. As you can see from the pictures the front clip is off the car. The previous owner was going to put a fiberglas front end on it. I was planning on a 2in. cowl . I do have all the original parts. Including a Griffin aluminum radiator with dual electric fans and separate trans cooler. Because of a lot of different reasons the car had to sit for several years. During that time mud dauber wasps set up home inside the engine. That is in two of the cylinder bores. Which is why the engine is apart. I was hoping I could use a hand hone to clean the bore but now I think it would be better to remove the block and machine hone the cylinders. The previous owner told me the engine has less than 500 miles on it. The engine is still very tight with no ridge in any of the cylinders. The car was originally built as a high 9 low 10 second street car using a Pro charger so the bottom end is very well built. It's a full roller motor with Speed Pro roller lifters and Lunati rockers. It comes with brand new cnc'd Pro Comp aluminum heads with guides and stud girdles. A new Holley Street Avenger 770 carb. All polished billet brackets, valve covers, breathers and pulleys. A new chrome alternator. A new water pump and chrome air cleaner. New gaskets and stainless socket head hardware. There is also a very well built set of tri-y headers. It has a Victor Jr intake. This set up should get 500 hp. Now for the reasons I'm not doing it myself. First is a 1988 Mustang GT and the other is a 1970 SS396 Nova race car. Both run but both are very needy. Anyway the Blazer is an excellent car that for a bit of time and effort should be an absolute beast on the street. E-mail any questions or if you want to talk I can give you my phone number. Also because of the amount of loose parts every thing can not be packed inside the car for shipping.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
