This is something you don't see every day... a 1961 International Harvester Metro A120 delivery van! Our friend is going to use it as a Bartolli's Pizza delivery vehicle in the city, so we are going to make it easier to drive and change the look to match his restaurant. It's a cool 220 cubic-inch 6 cylinder powered box now, but we'll see what develops. The plan calls for using a Chevrolet Tahoe for a donor chassis and driveline.

This 1962 Buick Electra convertible originally appeared on one of the very first episodes of V8TV working on the engine and a disc brake conversion. Back in 1998, David Freiburger and Rob Kinnan of Car Craft and Hot Rod Magazines purchased this car for a Car Craft Magazine cheap and fun weekend cruiser project. They gave the original carburetor a tune, did a quickie bright yellow paint job on the car and drove it around for a bit before putting it up for sale. At that point, our friend Paul purchased the car from Freiburger and towed it from sunny Southern California to his home in the Midwest. Paul drove the car for a couple summers until the original Buick 401 Nailhead engine failed, and not having a lot of resources back then, Paul decided to install a small block Chevy V8 that he had on hand. About that time, Paul's job changed, he started a family, and more important life events occurred. Today, nearly 20 years later, the car has arrived in the V8 Speed and Resto Shop where the V8 Team will complete his engine conversion and make the car a driver once again.

This is a very cool car, a 1963 Imperial Crown Convertible. It's one of approximately 513 built, and it's showing less than 28,000 miles. It's powered by a 413 Wedge V8 connected to a pushbutton automatic transmission. We love the space-age Virgil Exner "Forward Look" styling, with cool details like the headlight pods and the "sqaure" steering wheel. The current owner has known the car since he was a kid, and knows the original owning family. It's been sitting for a number of years, and it came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop to be brought back to safe driving condition.

The V8 Speed & Resto Shop crew recently completed the restoration of this very cool and subtly modernized 1965 Chevrolet Impala. Today, it drives better than any stock '65 ever drove, thanks to a Ridetech suspension system, and it is powered by a retro-themed 6.0 LS V8 engine and a 6-speed manual gearbox. The look is sharp thanks to a load of OER restoration parts from Classic Industries.

Mercury Comet Cyclones are not the most common Muscle Car, but they are cool to see. This one is not only visually stunning with its deep maroon paint and stark white interior, it also has the guts to make it go! Under the hood is a carburated & supercharged 302, backed by a C6 transmission and a GearVendors Overdrive unit and a 9" rear axle. The combination is good for mid 11-second quarter mile times, and good driving manners on the street. It came to our the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for some maintenance, as we fixed a few leaks, checked the tune, tightened up the exhaust, and rebuilt the rear end.

This 1966 Chevelle came to our shop to have some maintenance and a few cosmetic fixes. The distributor in the big block Chevy V8 had corroded, so we shipped it back to MSD Ignition for a freshen-up. There was some weirdness in the steering column, so we had it waranteed by Ididit to like-new operation again. We also made a new electric fuel pump mounting bracket and addressed some leaks and some new brakes.
Outside, the '66 rolled in with a 4" cowl induciton hood that made it a little hard to see the road, so our crew installed a steel 2" version for more style and less "race" appearance. The color is House Of Kolor TruBlue Kandy and it really looks sharp in the sun.

According to the numbers, there were only 38 of these first generation 1967 Excalibur roadsters built, and the V8 Speed & Resto Shop crew just finished a freshening on a very cool maroon version for a great customer. The car is powered by a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette 327 and is hooked to a Borg-Warner 3-speed automatic transmission, and features functional side exiting pipes and dual exhaust. The chassis is basically a stretched 1964 Studebaker Lark, with front disc brakes and a third headlight that turns with the steering wheel, like a Tucker Torpedo. Inside, you'll find an engine-turned dash with Stewart Warner gauges and an original Motorola radio. This car is showing just over 19,000 miles on the odometer, and had not run in years before being delivered to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for a tune-up and some new wide whitewalls from Diamond Back Classics. These are rare and unusual cars, and we're happy to keep them on the road!Click "Read More" for the complete photo gallery!

This 1967 Ford Mustang lived a full life, and eventually it was torn down for a restoration to repair rust and damage to the body. Unfortunaltely, the shop doing the work couldn't complete the task, so the car came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for completion. Our technicians inspected the car and after chatting with the owner, it was decided that much of the metalwork on the '67 could have been of a higher level of quality, so our team is working to bring the car to a higher level, as it's been in the owner's family since 1973!

This 1967 Ford Mustang is a fun car. It's powered by a supercharged 5.4 liter Ford V8 with a 5-speed manual transmission, Baer brakes, performance suspension, and it has a great look. In fact, the gray color is actually a wrap, which was done so the owner can beat on this car on the road course without worrying about chipping up an expensive paint job. It had developed some electrical gremlins, so it got stored for a few years, but our team is going to bring it back to life. Read More to see the photos and videos!

This very nice 1968 Oldsmobile 442 tribute car is wearing a crisp restoration and features some modified parts intended to give this car better handling and drivability. It’s not a numbers-matching W30 car, although it looks like one. It’s got 17” American Racing wheels, Wilwood brakes with a Hydratech hydraulic brake assist unit, Hotchkis control arms and sway bars, and a few other goodies. It’s powered by a big block Olds engine, but the owner wanted increased reliability, as he drives this car on cross country trips. His solution is a GM LSA supercharged 6.2 liter V8 “Connect & Cruise Kit” which also provides an overdrive transmission. It’s not an Oldsmobile engine, but the owner has several other numbers matching 442 W30 cars, and this one is not a “numbers car”, and he likes the technology and abilities of the LSA engine and the 4L85E transmission.

We are all very excited here at V8TV and the V8 Speed & Resto Shop, as we've received the high honor of being chosen to restore the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro belonging to COMP Cams! They've had the car for many years, and 2016 marks the 40th Anniversary of COMP Cams, so they wanted the car freshened up for the milestone year. We'll be documenting the restoration of the car along the way, both in photos and video.
Plans for the car include a FAST EFI equipped LS engine mated to a TCI 6X 6-speed automatic transmission, a Heidt's suspension system, updated wheels, tires, and brakes, and a fresh paint job... among many other details. Although the car will retain it’s black-and-white theme, it will have a red pinstripe on the SS stripes, updated wheels to go with the new suspension, and a few other subtle tricks here and there. It's going to be a stunner!
Our crew is ready to make it happen, and we're proud to work with one of the industry icons to bring this significant car up-to-date. Follow along in the photo gallery, videos, and a build thread on this slick '69!

This is not really a car build, but we had a customer approach us about building and installing some custom hood vents for his ‘69 Camaro. He liked the style of the vents in the carbon fiber hood on Mark Stielow’s Hellfire Camaro, but these would be steel. Stielow’s hood does not have the same underside structure as a stock steel Cowl Induction hood, so these would have to be a little different to fit into the opening in the structure without remaking the support structure.

A 1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS that is still in the original owner's family!
This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro arrived in the V8 Speed & Resto Shop, brought to us by the son of the original owner. It's a very cool car, and it has never been restored and is still wearing nearly all of the original paint. It was original powered by a 307 V8 backed by a 3-speed manual transmission, and it's wearing the RS trim option. The problem is that it needs a complete restoration due to many years of storage in a barn.
