Roger Burman's Lakeside Rods & Rides in Iowa was enlisted to execute their vision of the 63 Bel Air. Roger and his crew started by stripping and painting the frame, then setting it up with Air Ride Technologies ShockWaves and tubular control arms, plus Fatman dropped spindles, disc brakes, and 3.55:1 gears in the original rearend. Budnik Muroc III wheels offered a classic-looking design in modern 18x7- and 20x10-inch sizes, and were wrapped in Hankook 235/40R18 and 275/35R20 radials. Continuing the new-spin-on-an-old-idea theme, Roger selected an Arizona Speed & Marine Dropped Top Superjet EFI to crown the 350ci GM crate small block. "[It] resembles an early view larger imageCorvette Rochester unit," Roger says. The engine also received a March pulley system, Billet Specialties valve covers, and block-hugger headers leading to Flowmaster mufflers. Monster Motorsports assembled a 700-R4 to back up the mill There was more to cleaning up the Bel Air body than just shaving the emblems, handles, and cowl vent. "By eliminating the wing windows the car appears sleeker, And the black paint makes the car look longer and narrower. The roof style is what I love about these cars. Jason talked me into painting the roof green [a custom-mixed hue by Dean Fowler] instead of two-toning it the way you often see, thus highlighting the roofline and setting it apart from your run-of-the-mill hardtop. The taillights are from an '06 HHR, cut down to fit in the original bezels Beyond that, Burman added functional '66 Chevelle hood vents and narrowed the bumpers, adding a custom vent in front and exhaust cutouts flanking the license in back. Reinstalling the original trim spears was the final exterior detail. "There were a few pieces of side trim missing, "but I figured we could just replace it. Well, it was more difficult to find than I thought; I now have more money in the side trim than I paid for the whole car!" Kirk Bowman in Omaha refurbished it all, while Puget Sound Choppers carved the Rushforth-designed billet badges Inside, Burman's crew built a custom console and gauge pod, filling the latter with TPI dials. Dan Weber then wrapped green leather around Dodge Intrepid buckets, a modified rear seat, and all other soft parts, while Steve Strobel at Site & Sound packed in a Sony stereo with a host of Kicker speakers and amps. Air-Tique climate controls cooled the air, while a 15-inch repop '57 Chevy wheel topped the ididit column The 63 Cruises and drive Awesome. Ice cold A/C power Windows are very fast. This is still a new car with only 5000 miles on it. Cruises on Highway at 80 MPH. The under side is a gloss black and all exhaust is tucked up inside the frame for when you drop the 63 to the ground. You really need to see this car in person. All offers and Trades are Welcome. Cell# 508-789-9501. Scott214@Hotmail.com

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
