1971 Chevy C10 454 Custom Street Rod The C series was Chevrolet’s full size pick ups from 1960 – 1999. The 1960 model year introduced a new body style of light pick-up trucks that featured a drop-center ladder frame which allowed the cab to sit lower and independent front suspension which gave an almost car-like ride in a truck. The cab was changed for 1964 by eliminating the wraparound windshield, the front grille was redesigned and there were various interior changes. In 1969 it received a redesigned grille again along with a more upright hood. Originally from Texas this sweet rod was restored about 8 years ago at which time the odometer had just flipped 100,000 so the current odometer reading reflects the mileage on the restoration. The heart of this gorgeous truck is a 454 that was performance built by Keith Black and is now a 476 estimated to put out 450hp. The 700R4 was just installed about 2,000 miles ago and when combined with the Eaton 3:08 posi rear end is capable of close to 20 mpg on the highway. When you get in to it you know she means business as it sounds just plain nasty ripping through its 3” exhaust with X pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. She is an absolute pleasure to drive with power steering, power disc brakes, power windows, CD and ice cold A/C. The paint looks as if it was just sprayed yesterday and has a mirror shine. It has been lowered 3” up front and 4” in the rear which really gives this beauty an aggressive stance. When the car was lowered it received a larger front sway bar as well as a rear sway bar making her a pleasure to drive. Also worth noting are the beautiful polished Centerline rims, bright chrome work, sliding rear window, tonneau cover, bed rug and the fact that she has received her NSRA Safety 23 Certification. If you have been looking for Custom Chevy pick up you will be hard pressed to find one as powerful and reliable as this one for what we are asking.

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
