This is the one and only custom built Disabled American Veterans Bandit Car as seen on the block at Barrett
Jackson in 2012. Here is a little wording taken from Automotive.com about this car. The 580-hp TAM Bandit
begins life as a Chevrolet Camaro and goes through
numerous engine, exterior, and interior enhancements, including a Magnaflow exhaust system, 22-inch wheels, a
"shaker" hood, an SLP suspension, LED headlights with "Angel Eyes," and an optional whipple supercharger, six speed
manual trans, among other parts. Most striking, though, is the Bandit's resemblance to Burt Reynolds' 1977 Pontiac
Trans Am from the iconic film, Smokey and the Bandit. In total, the build is a $30,000 conversion. The Freedom
Edition, though, received DAV embroidered logos in the interior, and a custom paint job. The Car ultimately
raised $150,000.00 at Barrett Jackson for the cause. This car has been highly modified, and is a true sight to
see. Car has 7000 kms. on it at present - approx. 4400 miles. The car is in as new condition, with the only small
issue being a small crack in the bottom front lower spoiler. A one-of-one custom built car for the Disabled
American Veterans. The exterior Veterans decals were taken off before the current owner purchased the car. The
original interior embroidery is still there for all to see. Please see all pictures. There are shots of the car
when it was at Barrett Jackson, and also shots of the car as it sits today, and when you pick it up. The car has
been sitting in a collectors collection but is time to pass it onto someone else who may be looking for an
investment. Very Special Providence in this car, and the history of the vehicle can be found throughout the
internet. Custom modified by TAM ( Trans American Muscle ). There were no Pontiac Trans Ams built this year, as
Pontiac was no longer in business. This is a true tribute to what the Trans Am may have looked like is it was
factory built in 2012.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
