You are viewing my 1970 Impala Custom Coupe project. When I purchased the car is was running and driving. After removing the drivetrain and full disassembly, I detached the body from the frame, there was no rust to repair so the frame got the most attention. It was sandblasted then powder coated. The front subframe was notched because the oil pan from the LS1 that was going in it hit the brace. I then replaced all the suspension bushings with new poly urethane and fabricated a rack & pinion steering for it as well. The entire suspension was upgraded to Air RIde Technologies with auto ride height, front control arms, etc and the rear end was overhauled to a 3.73 posi traction. A new old stock fuel tank was purchased as well. The brakes were upgraded to disc all around, with bigger rotors on the front and the rear was just upgraded to rotors. The body mount busing were replaced with new ones as well. For the interior, new body GTO seats was fitted in the front and rear (the rear seats was sectioned so they would sit at the proper height. Bonspeed billet Big Block wheels were fitted in 20 x 9 up front and 22 x 10 in the rear with Verdestein tires. The wheels was sanded, etch primed and painted (they can easily be stripped and polished if you wish).

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
