1991 Pro Street Astro This is one wicked little van, if you want to be noticed this is the ride for you! For starters the sound will have everyone looking to see where the rumble is coming from. Then when they realize its coming from a mini van the looks of disbelief are priceless :) Upon the 2nd, 3rd, & continued looks they will start to notice all the details that went in to this van: Shaved door handles with popers shaved rear license from the rear door molded in Trans Am fender vents Rear roll pan Full Sliding Rag Top Narrowed Rear End Big M/T Tires on Weld Wheels Phantom Grill Hood Scoop And More! There are some dings and scratches because the Van is a driver, however it still shows well and attracts alot of attention. This is a FUN Hot Rod that you can put the Family in! The small block Chevy has plenty of power, its been stroked to a 383 and has a Edelbrock RPM Air Gap intake, headers, and other goodies. The trans is a T-350 with a ratchet shifter, and the rear is a 4 link supported by air bags. I have only played with it on the street so I cant tell you what it does on the track, but I have been told its quick ;) I will consider trades but Cash is King! I have given you the info to the best of my ability and believe it to all be truthful, however I did not build this van and cant give you every detail, only what I can see or have been told by the former owner. I do not offer or imply any warente or guarantee. Please ask all questions before bidding. 3-o-9 two-4-four 7-1-seven-eight

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
