1957 Chevy Resto-Mod. The "Duke" as it is nick-named on the hood is something you might see from Counting Cars. It's mean and sinister looking and it is awesome to drive.
Completely restored with new inner and outer fenders, quarters, floors, trunk etc. all the metal is done right and looks great, especially with the "Lamborghini Matte Black" finish. The "Duke" is powered by a 350 chevy with some goodies, headers, chrome, and a Turbo Hydromatic 350 trans, runs and shifts really smooth and of course it runs on pump gas . It has a large aluminum radiator with an electric fan to keep it cool.
'"This car is set up for a big block if you wanted.. The frame is cross tied and axels are tied and secured as well. The car IS NOT Tubbed so it is a great cruiser, not a straight liner car.. The duke has a newer suspension including rack and pinion steering, four wheel disc brakes, custom suspension around the car. It is smooth. The "Duke" has the door handles shaved off the car and there are electric plunger type door openers below mounted in the rockers. The "Duke's interior is totally custom wrapped in custom Black Leather that is professionally done and looks great. The dash sports both old and new gauges chrome steering column and wheel, and a push button start! This car totally rules any car show as it is truly one of a kind yet tastefully done.
The "Duke" is one bad *ss resto 57.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
