1954 Chevy 150 Sedan
Driveline: 70's 2 bolt 350, bored 0.040, flat top pistons, World cast iron S/R heads, Moroso performance distributor, QuickFuel HR 680 CFM carb, Summit dual plane intake, Howards hydraulic roller cam (225/231, 278/284, .500"/.510", 110+4 L/C), Holley 80gph fuel pump, TH350 trans rebuilt January 2010, steep rear end so it doesn't turn too high of RPMS going down the highway. Engine was rebuilt July of 2012. Very good oil pressure.
Chassis: TCI Mustang II IFS, powder coated A-arms and springs, non-power rack and pinion steering, 2" drop spindles up front, drop leafs in the rear, disc/drum power brakes, front sway bar, 15x7 wheels all around with American Classics wide whites (205/75/R15 radials), aluminum radiator keeps it running cool.
Interior: Custom black/grey, bucket seats from a 2006 Hyundai Tiburon, Custom Auto Sound AM/FM radio w/ 4 Kenwood 300w speakers and USB connection, VDO electronic gauge set (speedo, oil, temp, volt, fuel), IDIDIT stainless column, Lokar shifter, EZ wiring kit, Gemini remote door poppers, new window felts/gaskets and glass that is smoked (except for windshield), electric wipers, heat/defrost works. Interior was completed winter of 2012.
Body: shaved trim and door handles, one piece hood, blue pinstripe is hand painted, 4 extra grill teeth, power frenched antenna, smoothed firewall. The car was repainted Fall/Winter of 2010. Chrome is presentable but not perfect.
It's loud, it rides a little rough, and requires you to actually drive it -- I think that's the definition of a hot rod. It gets driven so don't expect perfection but this one is a good cruiser (been to Michigan and Minnesota in the last year). Items that are minor annoyances that I would fix over the winter if I were to keep the car: there is a oil seep from the oil pan gasket, the steering wheel isn't perfectly centered driving down the road (car is aligned - the steering column isn't however), and I don't like how the brake lines are ran under the car - I'd clean them up, I'm just fussy.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
