Finally a Chevy Sedan With Rear Wheel Drive!
As I was reading some motortrend articles I came across an article for the all new 2014 Chevrolet SS. Yes that's the cars name is the SS so I am assuming that means there is only on trim level and that would be the SuperSport trim package. The car has not been fully released yet, but as stated in the motor trend magazine one could speculate that the new 2014 SS will have the same general specs as a Pontiac G8 GXP. This is great that Chevrolet is finally introducing a true performance sedan back into the market. To me anything that is built front wheel drive is not fully built with performance in mind. The new car will also serve as Chevrolet's NASCAR body. The car is predicted to have the 6.2l GM Motor that should produce anywhere between 400 and 500 bhp. Personally performance sedans are my favorite kind of car. They are versatile while at the same time being able to smoke any old guy in a Mustang GT is always fun. Dont get me wrong the Mustang is my favorite car it just seems to be the most popular "fast" car on the road in America. Anyways applause to GM for coming out with the all new 2014 SS cant wait to see it!

Visit My Cafe Press Store! onlinemusclecarmuseum!
Hello readers in this blog I am going to show you a few of my cafepress products! Click HERE for more!
On these products, which range from a T-Shirt to a zip, are two pictures one of a windmill and clouds, the other two cute doggies. Yes I understand this does not pertain to muscle cars, but these are still pretty cool pictures. The picture of the windmill was taken in the Bloomington Normal area of a giant wind turbine on a cloudy day with a storm rolling in. The picture of the dogs are actually my dogs. Trixie is black white and fawn, while Babs is white, fawn and black. They are both Rat Terriers that are the most fun loving dogs in the house and fierce hunters outside of it. Some product examples below!

Wheeler Dealers Review
Another TV series review!
In this post I will review the TV show Wheeler Dealers on Velocity.
Wheeler Dealers is a British television show where Mike Brewer and Edd China
purchase old beat up cars and fix them up the right way to sell them for a
profit. Mike Brewer is the sales man who seeks out the vehicles they will work
on and tries to get the best deals he can find. While Edd China is the mechanic
of the operation and always does a seemingly beautiful job on the cars. The
show is great for learning as Edd comes off as a natural teacher. He is always
teaching the viewer easy cheap ways to fix up a car, but the best part is he
does it the right way. Yes, cheap usually isn’t quality, but he explains how he
saves money, for example something as easy as the prepping the car himself for
paint to save a few hundred dollars. In the mean time while Edd is repairing
the cars Mike is typically on a mission to find the best part deals he can. In
the end the Wheeler Dealers always churn out quality vehicles that are done the
right way. My only critique of the show would be the selection of cars they
choose to overhaul. They typically pick some boring British car that Americans don’t
even recognize or have ever heard of, other than that thought the show is
highly recommended for cars guys that are looking to learn something the easy
way, watching some TV!

Reading Recommendations!
In this post I am going to recommend
that all my readers also visit my website http://onlinemusclecarmuseum.webs.com/.
It has a few random articles that relate to cars and of course muscle cars. I
explain in one of the articles the basics of audio installation. In another
post I include ways of making a car that’s old and boring and spicing it up a
bit with basic modifications as opposed to buying a new car. The last article
pertains to oil changes and the importance of them, as well as basic
information on the role of oil in the internal combustion engine. The website
is just getting started but it is something you should go check out! Also I have
a second website that links to some of my blog post which is http://onlinemusclecarmuseum2.webs.com/
which I also recommend my readers to visit. All content deals with cars in some
way so please take a look! Lastly to conclude this post I wanted to open a line
for discussion and that is Formula One Racing vs NASCAR racing. I personally
like both forms of racing, but the real question is which car requires the most
skill to drive? The highly engineered F1 car that does virtually everything the
driver asks of it, but has to race road courses? On the other hand is the
NASCAR which is also highly engineered but in the end it is not as good at handling
or accelerating as the F1 car. This is a hot topic for debate among fans
usually so I was just looking for some reader input!
