1973 Chevrolet Chevelle on 2040-cars
Downey, California, United States
Please contact me only at : huguesbarnett122259@yahoo.com I recently obtained this vehicle from the guy who brought life to it. He got the vehicle about 5 years ago - an SS roller with all original rust free and straight sheet metal, original interior, etc. A low mileage 454 engine(4 bolt main) and TH400 3 Speed Automatic transmission were taken from an 80s Chevy pickup. As you can see from the photos he spared little expense. He tried to keep as much of the original vehicle as possible - only redoing those items that needed attention. The exterior paint was re-done - a beautiful black - the paint is like glass - easily a $5K + paint job. The interior is extremely nice - the car retains its original SS door panels and rear seat. Restoration included a custom dash pad, new matching upholstery on the front seats(factory swivel buckets), new carpet and headliner. Upgrades to the 454 include the following: General Motors Dual Plane high rise manifold, Edlebrock 800 CFM carb, HEI distributor, Hooker Headers, 2.5 dual Flowmaster Exhaust, large aluminum radiator, Transgo Shift kit. The car has a 3.55 positraction rear end. New parts include water pump, belts, hoses, alternator, starter, tires, KYB rear shocks, U joints, rebuilt front disc brakes. It also has new rubber seals at both doors and trunk. Newer tires sitting on vintage Centerline staggered wheels. You wont find any rust on this Fremont CA built Chevelle. The car has mostly been sitting in a garage, driven rarely since completion - the owner found a new project and this one was taking up the garage space so had to go. With that being said it will probably need some tweaks here and there but the car is extremely solid, has plenty of power and can be driven and enjoyed as is. The car has Power brakes, power steering and power windows - all work as they should. Gauges work in a blend of factory gauges and after market(Example - factory tach does not work but the large lower tach does work). I

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.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
