You are viewing my 1970 Impala Custom Coupe project. When I purchased the car is was running and driving. After removing the drivetrain and full disassembly, I detached the body from the frame, there was no rust to repair so the frame got the most attention. It was sandblasted then powder coated. The front subframe was notched because the oil pan from the LS1 that was going in it hit the brace. I then replaced all the suspension bushings with new poly urethane and fabricated a rack & pinion steering for it as well. The entire suspension was upgraded to Air RIde Technologies with auto ride height, front control arms, etc and the rear end was overhauled to a 3.73 posi traction. A new old stock fuel tank was purchased as well. The brakes were upgraded to disc all around, with bigger rotors on the front and the rear was just upgraded to rotors. The body mount busing were replaced with new ones as well. For the interior, new body GTO seats was fitted in the front and rear (the rear seats was sectioned so they would sit at the proper height. Bonspeed billet Big Block wheels were fitted in 20 x 9 up front and 22 x 10 in the rear with Verdestein tires. The wheels was sanded, etch primed and painted (they can easily be stripped and polished if you wish).

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
