Ever since the release of the first pickup trucks, aftermarket companies and custom shops have been looking for ways to make them more rugged for off-road driving. Shortly after WWII, a company called NAPCO began offering 4x4 conversion kits for civilian trucks from Dodge, Ford, and GM. Soon, GM started offering these kits as factory-installed RPO options, and then developed its own 4x4 system to meet demand. A few decades later, trucks like this K5 Blazer were built with off-roading in mind, and buyers upped the ante even further by modifying them with lift kits and bigger tires.

Consider this, if you will. You have an impressionable 10-year-old boy, who worships his dad and has gone to car shows with him since he was four years old. Thanks in large measure to his pops, he appreciates and learns about cars from the early 1900's up to the present day, but has a soft spot in his heart and his gearhead brain for automobiles from the Art Deco Design 1930's up through the swingin' muscle car 1950's, 60's, 70's and the exotic super and hyper cars of today.

Power is nothing without control — this old saying certainly rings true when it comes to working on cars. Our friends at All Chevy Performance already handled the power aspect of their 1971 Camaro project by installing a modern GM 5.3L LC9 V8, but the control side of the equation still needed to be addressed. This led them to update the Camaro's steering, pedals, and shifter so it'll be able to turn, accelerate, stop, and change gears smoothly. We were happy to assist with some much-needed parts from the Classic Industries Camaro catalog.

You have a recipe for American muscle car success, when you mix up a jet-black exterior paint scheme. Add 18-inch custom three-piece dog dish wheels. Achieve the perfect stance with custom chassis underpinnings both front and rear. Install disc brakes fore and aft. Drop in a new stroker V8 engine, backed by a five-speed manual. With the car being a 1969 Camaro that's just dying to be driven - your time was well spent bringing another piece of American automotive history back.

The 1967 Corvette Sting Ray holds a special place in automotive history as the final model year of the celebrated second-generation C2 Corvette. Originally intended to debut an all-new design, the C3 generation was delayed due to aerodynamic inconsistencies uncovered during testing. This postponement gave Chevrolet the opportunity to refine the existing 1963-67 platform one last time—resulting in what many enthusiasts consider the most perfected C2 Corvette ever built. Read on as we take a look back at the history, specifications, and factory options of the legendary 1967 Corvette.

Fast is a relative term. For some people, 350 horsepower feels like a lot, especially in a small and lightweight classic car. For others, it's nowhere near enough to scratch the itch for speed. Stacy, the owner and builder of this '67 Nova, decided that an absolutely vicious 900 horsepower supercharged LS9 V8 from a Corvette C6 ZR1 was just right for his project. He met up with a film crew from AutotopiaLA, and after smoking the tires all the way through third gear, they gave it the title "scary fast." But Stacy just said with a smile, "she moves."

Nick Cannon is renowned for his multifaceted career as a comedian, actor, producer, and television host.

For many car enthusiasts, there’s always that one car—the one that stays in your mind, tied to memories of youth, grit, and a little bit of heartbreak. For Fernando Martinez, that car was a 1985 Chevrolet Corvette. His journey with this iconic piece of American engineering spans decades, marked by passion, perseverance, and a powerful sense of coming full circle.

Exira, Iowa resident Allan Yoshida is a man of few words, we suspect. He kindly emailed Classic Industries three photos of his black over blue 1971 Camaro. Mr. Yoshida went on to explain that the Camaro has a 350-cubic inch V8 engine and is backed by a four-speed manual transmission.
