This is a 1970 Malibu that originally had a small block engine from the factory. I have 2 factory build sheets that go with the car. I planned to make a fun driver out of it so I could having something to enjoy while doing my frame off restorations but I ended up getting a 1970 Firebird driver and I don't have a need to keep them both. This is a project that was started by the previous owner in 2003 when he bought it out of Tennessee and did the motor build. He did the break in on the motor but he never finished the build and got it on the road.

If I keep the car I am going to replace the painless wiring with American Autowire, Replace the quarters with full quarters (has skins on it now) and do a 1 piece trunk pan.The car has a partial trunk pan in it now but they didn't completely remove the old one so for a show car I would do the trunk(it's solid and rust free just not factory looking).

It has a factory flat hood with a fiberglass cowl hood on it in the pictures, It comes with a brand new Dyncacorn steel cowl hood as well. If you have any questions about the car or need more pictures send me a message and I will be more than happy to give you the information you request. Car has clear Ohio title in my name.

PC Automotive(Oberlin, OH) built 454 with forged crank and KB pistons redone from the heads down to the Milidon high capacity pan. Comp Hi-Engergy Cam lifters and springs, New starter, alternator, billet brackets and pulleys, billet air cleaner and valve covers, HEI, Taylor performance wires, March pulleys. New Edelbrock 750 with electric choke Pretty much everything on the motor is brand new aside from the gm block and heads. Edelbrock rebuildable fuel pump. Engine shop build sheet/Full build specs available

New TCI TH400 transmission with brand new converter and flywheel. Stainless trans cooler lines. Hurst ratchet shifter.

I pulled the radiator and sent it to a shop to get cleaned and pressure checked. It's perfect. I also flushed the cooling system due to the car sitting, I don't take chances. I also installed a brand new gas tank, flushed the lines and installed a new Edelbrock Carb and new fuel filter. With a brand new engine I don't want to risk putting bad gas through it.

Professionally Rebuilt 12 bolt posi with new eaton posi, new 3.55:1 gears and new superior forged axles. Rear drums have been serviced with new spring kit and wheel cylinders Front Disk brake kit with power booster/master. Looks like a high quality kit (maybe SS brakes or Powermaster brakes) Frame is rock solid with all energy suspension poly bushings. paint is faded and isn't show quality but it's not all rusty either. New Hotchkiss rear trailing links and brace. Over sized sway bars front and rear. New tie rods, ball joints, idler arm. Power steering.

Painless wiring harness is installed but needs cleaned up and wires shortened.

New Flowmaster mandrel bent exhaust with H pipe

Fenders, inner fenders, radiator support, doors, rockers, roof, window channels all look excellent Stainless Trim needs polished and some of the pieces have dents.

Interior needs dash pad top and dash wiring cleaned up. Has a very nice original rear seat, new Scat Procar seats up front. New door panels and interior quarter panels. headliner is new but needs stretched and re-glued. Carpet is new. All the fluids have been replaced with new fluids - Brake, antifreeze, power steering

The car has been sitting for about a month so the battery needs charged and it needs gas but the car does start, run and drive but will need to be trailered because the brakes are soft, it needs a front end alignment due to all the steering components being new and the engine will need some minor tuning(idles great!) since it is a new motor with less than a mile of driving around the industrial parkway. It also is leaking oil from the back of the engine, so that will need to be fixed. It is a a great winter project that you can either put a little bit of time into this winter and have a fun reliable car to cruise next spring or go all out and do a trunk panel, quarters and full paint job. The car is a solid car and I took pictures from every angle I can think of. If you have any questions or need additional pictures I am more than willing to do what I can.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
