You are looking at a one of a kind 1957 Chevy.  It underwent a complete frame off rotisserie restoration. This car is amazing from front to back, top to bottom.

The base is a seamless California frame coated with POR15. Anything that even looked like it had a problem was replaced.  Floors were replaced from trunk to the firewall. Single piece trunk and floor. Rockers replaced, tail pan replaced. Urethane body mounts and suspension bushings with coil over springs.

Mechanically the car has been completely redone with modern upgrades.  The power train starts with a wonderfully running LT1 fuel injected motor partnered with a 460LE Computerized Transmission.  Power disc brakes, rack and pinion steering, posi-trac(325 gears), Painless wiring harness for the motor as well as the car. Aluminum radiator, BeCool fan

The outside was given the same attention.  All chrome and stainless was either replaced (from Dan Chuk) or rechromed, New glass, new Cragar S/S wheels, new Cooper Cobra tires.  Car was painted the reborn Camaro Rally Green with Matrix Basecoat and top of the line clearcoat (MS-42); 3 coats of each over an epoxy primer.   Even the bottom was painted to match as you can see in some of the restoration photos.

Interior is absolutely beautiful.  Custom interior was designed to match the car, photos really tell the story here.  Power seats, tilt steering, Vintage Air, custom dash and gauges. 

I would encourage anyone to come see the car in person.  The photos do not capture the metallic paint or the perfect sound of this car when it's running.  So please come kick the tires if you can.

The car will come with the photos showing the restoration from start to finish.  I put a few in the listing to hopefully capture beyond any doubt that this car was done correctly.

 

Thanks for looking, please ask if you would like additional photos or information.

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
