Check out this huge Bell intercooler we stuffed in the nose of the S71 Olds. Tonight we did the first trial fitting, we've got a long way to go, but we're looking pretty good so far!
An all-new Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle (PPV) will join the
ranks of law enforcement departments across North America in 2011. It's
a modern, full-size, rear-drive sedan that will offer both V-8 and V-6
engines, as well as a host of specialized equipment and features.
Chevrolet made the announcement at the annual International Association
of Chiefs of Police convention, in Denver, Colorado. The Caprice PPV
will be available for ordering next year and will hit the streets in
early 2011.
We're getting ready to take our 1962 Ford Galaxie 500XL convertible on a road trip across the USA, and you can come with us! Well, sorta. We'll be posting videos from the road several times per day, and if the technology works right, we may be able to have a live map drop pins online. Here's a quick video, and you can post comments in the Forum Thread on the trip!
Bodyman Nathan Newberry is in the process of jazzing-up an old Ford steering wheel we had in the parts pile using some 3M 4240 Plastic Repair to fill the cracks, and then it will be sanded and painted in the next video.
This has been a good summer - we've actually had time to drive our 1962 Ford Galaxie 500 XL convertible around quite a bit. Now, we're possibly taking a multi-state road trip with the car, and it's time do to some maintenance on a Friday night. Little things like Royal Purple fluid changes, installing a better Spal fan control switch, fixing the e-brake... you get the idea. Kelle and Kevin are working on it.
