1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu 350 on 2040-cars
Bristol, Pennsylvania, United States
Here is what I know about this Chevelle:
Seems to be a solid car. A quick glance does not reveal any prior damage or rust, however I can not guarantee
that statement, since this was the condition when my parents bought the Chevelle many years ago. You are advised
to inspect yourself. No significant rust on trunk floor (see pictures) and nothing evident in quarter panels or
rockers. Once again, please inspect yourself or have your mechanic inspect. It's a 48 year old car!
Paint is very, very nice, but not an original color to the best of my knowledge. It seems to be a Royal Plum
color which would have been correct on Chevelles from the late 60's, but not 1971. All inside panels, door jams,
etc., were repainted correctly, so it's tough to tell it has been repainted. It's a sharp color and as the pictures
indicate, has quite a glossy shine!
Non-original parts are: Carburetor (I think, not sure on carb), air cleaner, Cragar S/S rims, valve covers,
stereo (additional speakers have also been installed in rear), stainless steel dual exhausts with glass packs. All
of these non-original additions were on the car when my parents bought it, so we have none of the original parts.
'Not certain if this is a matching number engine. If you are curious, we will try to get a picture of the engine
serial number. Passenger seat has a tear in bottom cushion with black tape covering the tear. Can be seen in
picture.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
