1969 Chevelle "SS496" Blog 56: SEMA Bound!

Our goal was to complete the SS496 for the 2007 SEMA show in Las Vegas, NV beginning in the last week of October.   Well, we're happy to say that the SS496 is locked and loaded in the trailer ready to make the trip.   Today we finished tons of little details, and we finally have a running, driving, stopping, honest-to-goodness car.    It's looking fantastic, and we're excited to bring it out!   We'd like to extend a huge THANKS to everyone who helped in this project in any way.   We couldn't have done it without you.    We're not finished with the car yet, though... Stay tuned to V8TVshow.com for more coverage on the SS496 at the track and on the street!    Also, we're bringing you all the coolest cars from the SEMA show all week!   


 
1969 Chevelle "SS496" Blog 55: It Runs!

  It's getting late, but the SS496 Chevelle has come alive!   After adding all the Royal Purple fluids and double checking the whole works, the big 496 stroker motor rumbled to life!   It sounds wicked through the Hooker headers and Magnaflow pipes, and we can't wait to take this thing for a rip down the strip!   We've got 1 day left to bleed the brakes, finish some wiring, and install the rest of the interior.   The thrash continues!


 
1969 Chevelle "SS496" Blog 54: 36 Hours Left

  We've been working on this car for almost a year, and now we're down to the last 36 hours before we load it on the trailer and haul it to Las Vegas for the 2007 SEMA show.   It's almost ready, but we're still tackling details.   We fixed the spring situation with the help of OPGI, and we hope to fire the engine later tonight!


 
1969 Chevelle "SS496" Blog 53: Exhaust 1

  The sound of a muscle car is half the attraction, and tonight, Scott Guehne began installing the 2 1/2 inch stainless exhaust kit from Magnaflow.    Magnaflow systems are nice because they are pre-bent for the car, all mandrel bent, stainless steel, and they utilize cool clamps and hardware to make the install easy.

Later, Kelle gives you tips on how to occupy children with sharp objects... DISCLAIMER - don't try this at home!
