1977 Chevy Van

Custom 1977 Chevy Van Is Part Cruiser, Part Cocktail Lounge

Hop Cap was a well-known purveyor of customized conversion vans that operated out of Bremen, Indiana in the 1970s. These vans featured all the custom add-ons that other 1970s conversion vans did, such as detailed airbrushed murals, fender flares,  chrome trim, a rear bubble window and shag carpet, but some went a little bit further than others with interiors that looked more like a bar lounge than a van.

This 1977 Chevy van built by Hop Cap is a perfect example of how the company would go above and beyond for customers that requested it. The exterior of this funky 1970s van is straightforward enough with its metallic blue paint, chrome Cragar wheels, railroad mural and bubble window – but the interior is what truly sets it apart.

Inside this Chevy van is a hardwood mantle/bar with cabinets, a sink and a mini-fridge, which is joined by a u-shaped couch with blue vinyl upholstery, blue window curtains, shag carpet trim and hardwood flooring. As such, the interior of this van looks like some sort of 1970s cocktail lounge. The metal lion insignias on the backsplash of the bar area, along with the two small lamps on either side of the couch, help give this rolling lounge a bit more ambiance as well. The treatment continues in the driver’s cabin with a woodgrain steering wheel, crushed velvet seats, custom wooden cupholders and more shag carpet trim.

Mechanically speaking, this 1977 Chevy van features a 350 cubic-inch V8, along with a three-speed automatic transmission. It has 122,087 miles on the odometer, so it’s been well enjoyed over the past 43 years or so. This custom van may be cool, but it doesn’t come cheap. The dealership that owns it, Paul Sherry Conversion Vans, is asking $70,995 for the opportunity to take it home – a huge sum for a custom Chevrolet van with rather high mileage if you ask us. Check out the listing at this link and the walkaround video embedded below for some more information on this funky 1970s party van.

Cruisin’ the USA in your Chevrolet virtual celebration

Chevrolet Is Hosting A Week Long Online Car Enthusiast Celebration

Chevrolet plans to host an online car enthusiast event later this month on its various social media pages that will celebrate some of the most beloved Chevy vehicles from the automaker’s past.

If you are looking for a new or pre-owned Chevrolet, visit Ron Westphal Chevrolet online or in person today.

 

“Chevrolet is reimagining summer car cruising through a week-long virtual festival – Cruisin’ the USA in your Chevrolet – that celebrates more than a century of the brand’s automotive history,” the automaker said in a statement. “Hosted on Chevy’s social media channels from August 10-16, the event is designed to take viewers back in time to experience the brand’s rich heritage of innovation, design and passion.”

This celebration is intended as a sort of unofficial replacement for the Woodward Dream Cruise, which was previously set to be held this month but was later canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Just like Dream Cruise, the online event will offer something for Chevy fans of all types, with each day incorporating a different theme.

The event will kick off by looking at back at the Chevrolet brand’s inception in 1911, with the automaker preparing to release archival videos from the last 109 years “showcasing Chevy’s memorable feats,” it said in a statement. The automaker will then move through the different eras and explore new themes each day of the celebration.

Additionally, each day will feature commentary and analysis from various Chevrolet experts, who will provide “in-depth looks at some of the brand’s most iconic vehicles housed at the General Motors Heritage Center and even share their own custom Chevy builds.”

The schedule of events for the “Cruisin the USA in your Chevrolet” online event is as follows:

  • August 10: The Origins and Innovations of Chevrolet
  • August 11: Chevy’s Most Iconic Designs
  • August 12: The Proud Truck Tradition
  • August 13: The Peak of Performance
  • August 14: Team Chevy – A Culture of Winning
  • August 15: Chevy’s Heritage – A Fan Celebration
  • August 16: Race Day – Cheering on Team Chevy at NASCAR and the NHRA Nationals

Corvette C6.R in traditional Velocity Yellow paint scheme

Chevrolet fans who want to participate in the event should follow the brand’s Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest pages, along with the Team Chevy motorsports twitter account, before the virtual festivities kick off next week.

One 1 Hugger Orange COPO Camaro made and it goes to auction

The 2020 COPO Camaro was offered with an optional 1969 Heritage Package from the factory, which unlocked the ability to order the car in a number of different exterior colors from the 1969 model year Camaro’s color palette. These yesteryear colors included Garnett Red, Butternut Yellow, Fathom Green, Azure Turquoise, Olympic Gold, Frosty Green and our personal favorite, Hugger Orange.

With General Motors only building 69 examples of the 2020 COPO Camaro, and with six other exterior color options available, it was inevitable that some of these Heritage colors would be ordered in very low numbers this year. It turns out that only one person ordered their 2020 COPO Camaro in Hugger Orange, and now the exceedingly rare, factory-built dragster is heading to the auction block.

Not only is this the world’s only 2020 COPO Camaro finished in Hugger Orange, it was also ordered with the optional supercharged 350 cu. in. V8 engine. The COPO Camaro comes standard with a naturally aspirated 427 cubic inch V8 producing an NHRA-rated 470 horsepower, but for$12,500 extra, buyers can get a 350 V8 with a 2.65L Magnuson supercharger. Supercharged models also come standard with a parachute.

In addition to the heritage exterior colors, the 1969 Heritage Package also includes vinyl stripes on the hood and decklid, black Chevrolet bowties, COPO embroidered seatbacks, darkened taillights, clear front and rear side marker lamps and Weld Racing wheels with a satin black finish.

The 2020 COPO Camaro was already a bit special, with GM using it to honor both the legacy of John Force and the legacy of the 1969 model year Camaro, but this ups the ante with both the 1969 Heritage Package and the optional supercharged 350 cu. in. V8. This is pretty much the epitome of collectible modern-day Camaros, but what will it sell for when it heads to auction at Mecum’s Kissimmee sale later this month? We can’t wait to find out.

The 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer Is The Fastest Selling New Vehicle In The United States

The new Trailblazer starts at just $19,995.

The 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer is the fastest-selling new vehicle in the United States, according to data from automotive research firm iSeeCars.com.

Ron Westphal Chevrolet has the 2021 Trailblazer in stock-but inventory is low as of 8/5/20.  We do have MANY new 2021 Trailblazer models currently on order that are due in soon.  If you can’t find an in stock unit that suits you,  feel free to select an inbound unit and we’ll give you a call when it arrives.  Or, we can order one to your exact specifications for no additional cost.  Call our Customer Care Team for details at 630-898-9630 or visit our showroom today.

iSeeCars recently identified the top 12 fastest-selling new cars by calculating how long on average the vehicles are spending on dealership lots. Out of all 2020 and 2021 model year vehicles, the new Chevrolet Trailblazer subcompact crossover spends the least amount of time on the lot before selling at an average of just 19 days. iSeeCars.com says the Trailblazer has doubled the sales goal that GM set for it this year, which has made it “hard to find at dealerships as a result of its short supply and high demand.”

It’s not surprising to see the Trailblazer selling well. With a starting price of just $19,995 including destination, the Trailblazer is a competitive and affordable offering in one of the most popular vehicle segments today. The crossover comes standard with a turbocharged 1.2L LIH three-cylinder engine good for 137 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque, along with a CVT transmission and front-wheel-drive. Buyers can also opt for a turbo 1.3L L3T three-cylinder, which makes 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. This 1.3L engine is the only engine available with all-wheel-drive and a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Another reason the Chevrolet Trailblazer has been flying off lots is that it has been arriving from South Korea in very limited quantities so far. With the Trailblazer still being very new, and with COVID-19 still affecting GM’s global supply chain and production output, inventory has been scarce. It’s likely the average time the vehicle takes to sell will go up when dealers have more inventory, as it will take more than one or two sales to sell out of their Trailblazer stock.

iSeeCars CEO Phong Ly says many of the fastest-selling vehicles on its list have experienced a similar effect in the first seven months of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Many of these fastest-selling vehicles are popular cars that are hard to find for reasons such as the effect of the pandemic on supply chains, they were produced in limited quantities, or that they are new models that aren’t yet abundant in the used car marketplace,” he explained.

Notably, the other top ten fastest-selling vehicles in the United States were all crossovers or SUVs, with the Chevrolet Bolt EV hatchback being the only exception.

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe represents a complete overhaul (re-engineering and redesign) of the flagship SUV, and marks the first model year for the Tahoe nameplate

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe represents a complete overhaul (re-engineering and redesign) of the flagship SUV, and marks the first model year for the Tahoe nameplate’s fifth generation.

Looking for a Tahoe?  The restyled 2021 Chevy Tahoe is in stock and available for immediate delivery at Ron Westphal Chevrolet.  Call our Customer Care Team at 630-898-9630 or visit us online.

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe has been redesigned to be the ultimate SUV – offering the most interior space of any SUV, exclusive technologies and features, and the best driving dynamics in the full-size segment. This was achieved through a complete transformation of Chevrolet’s full-size SUVs, combining the strongest aspects of its new full-size truck architecture with entirely new systems tailored to the needs of today’s SUV drivers and passengers.

“There are no vehicles like Tahoe and Suburban – which have starred in Hollywood movies, carried military heroes and world leaders, and helped create countless family memories,” said Barry Engle, executive vice president and president, General Motors North America. “We’ve taken what people love about these pioneering SUVs and made them even better – adding more room for people and cargo, more advanced technology and an unrivaled driving experience.”

 

Body Styles

The all-new 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe will still be offered as a full-size five-door SUV. An extended-length variant is available as the 2021 Chevrolet Suburban.

The unique front fascia includes a black ice finish on the grille, while the interior includes RST-specific seats with stitching in a contrasting color. RST models include all LT content, plus black and black-chrome exterior trim, 22-inch wheels and more.

Z71: Chevy’s legendary off-road focused Z71 was a driving force in the design of the new SUVs, in terms of appearance and capability. Z71 now includes more unique visual and performance attributes than ever before. The Z71 front fascia not only signals ruggedness, it also has a higher approach angle to aid off-road capability. 4WD is standard and includes a two-speed transfer case and Hill Descent Control, along with 20-inch wheels, all-terrain tires, front skid plate and red tow hooks. Z71 features black and black-chrome exterior accents.

The interior includes High Country sill plates, seat embroidery, and expanded color and trim choices. High Country features the 6.2L V-8 engine with Magnetic Ride Control, 22-inch wheels with chrome inserts, and adds Rear Pedestrian Alert1, Head-Up Display, HD Surround Vision and the Rear Camera Mirror.1 Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Adaptive Cruise Control1 are available.

Interior Design Highlights

The Chevrolet infotainment system is the centerpiece and it leads major competitors with a large, 10-inch-diagonal color touchscreen. It’s one of five connected and configurable screens offered in the redesigned SUVs:

  • Chevrolet infotainment system with a 10-inch-diagonal color touchscreen is standard
  • An 8-inch-diagonal, configurable color instrument and information cluster is standard on Premier and High Country; a 4.2-inch-diagonal color driver information center is standard on LS, LT, RST and Z71
  • A 15-inch diagonal Head-Up Display, not offered by competitors, with a 3 x 7-inch color display is standard on High Country and available on Premier
  • An available rear-seat media package includes dual 12.6-inch-diagonal LCD touchscreens

Technology

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe has 30 safety and driver convenience technologies, just some of which include:

Available technologies include:

Powertrain

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe offers three engine choices:

  • 5.3-Liter Ecotec3 L84 V8 (Gasoline) – Features variable valve-timing and direct injection, and produces an SAE-certified 355 horsepower / 265 kilowatts @ 5600 RPM with 383 pound-feet / 519 newton meters of torque @ 4100 RPM.
  • 6.2-Liter Ecotec3 L87 V8 (Gasoline) – Features variable valve-timing and direct injection, and produces an SAE-certified 420 horsepower / 313 kilowatts @ 5600 RPM with 460 pound-feet / 623 newton meters of torque @ 4100 RPM.
  • 3.0-Liter Duramax LM2 I6 (Diesel) – Features dual-overhead cams and direct injection, and produces a GM-estimated 277 horsepower / 207 kilowatts @ 3750 RPM with 460 pound-feet / 623 newton meters of torque @ 1500 RPM.

All three engines are paired with the GM Hydra-Matic 10L80 10-speed automatic and a 3.23 final drive ratio.

Ride And Handling Upgrades

Chevy calls the 2021 Tahoe’s suspension the “most advanced available suspension in the segment.”
Both the 2021 Tahoe and Suburban feature a newly developed chassis that integrates a longer wheelbase and independent multilink rear suspension. In addition, the all-new models offer the Air Ride Adaptive Suspension system and Magnetic Ride Control – not offered by any competitor – both of which deliver even greater body control.

“I think the most impressive aspect of the all-new Tahoe and Suburban is how well they handle,” said Herrick. “Despite being big, they offer responsive, confidence-inspiring handling that will change expectations for the full-size SUV driving experience.”

The independent multilink rear suspension fundamentally transforms the driving dynamics of the Tahoe and Suburban, allowing each rear wheel to handle road conditions separately to dramatically enhance ride quality, steering responsiveness and overall driver control, compared to the previous live axle design.

 

Platform

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe rides on the all-new T1 platform, otherwise known as GMT-T1 or T1XX. The T1 is a General Motors vehicle architecture designed for pickup trucks and body-on-frame SUVs. It is the same chassis the underpins the fourth-generation 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and fifth-gen 2021 Cadillac Escalade

The 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe will be assembled by GM USA at the GM Arlington plant in Arlington, Texas, USA.

Price

Pricing on the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe will be announced closer to the official launch later this year.

Availability

Chevrolet has confirmed that the 2021 Tahoe will go on sale midway through the 2020 calendar year.

Debut

The 2021 Tahoe made its debut on December 10th, 2019 alongside the larger 2021 Chevrolet Suburban during a special event in downtown Detroit.

Beyond 2021

We expect that the all-new, fifth-generation Chevrolet Tahoe will enter and remain in production for at least the 2021, 2022, and 2023 model years. The product will likely undergo a refresh after the 2023 model year.

2021 Chevrolet Colorado: Here’s What’s New And Different

A comprehensive guide to all the changes and updates.

The current, second-generation Chevrolet Colorado was initially introduced for the 2015 model year, officially marking GM’s return to the midsize pickup truck segment.

Since its introduction, the Colorado has clawed its way to the second best-selling spot in its segment, until the new Ford Ranger pushed it into third place. Though many were hoping that GM would give the Colorado a refresh, that never materialized. Instead, the truck got minor changes and updates throughout its lifecycle. Now, the 2021 model year delivers a few more noteworthy changes – such as a slightly-reworked front end, revised trim levels, packages and more. We’ve compiled a comprehensive guide on everything that’s new and different about the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado.

Model-Line Changes

On the model line side, the 2021 Colorado does away with the base model. The deletion of the base Colorado trim level means that the Work Truck trim is now the base model. All other trim levels remain, including LT, Z71 and ZR2. Those hoping for a high-end LTZ or High Country trim are – unfortunately – out of luck.

2020 Chevrolet Colorado Trim Level Structure
Trim level: Base Work Truck LT Z71 ZR2
Equipment group: 2SA 2WT, 4WT 2LT, 4LT 2Z7, 4Z7 4ZR
2021 Chevrolet Colorado Trim Level Structure
Trim level: Work Truck LT Z71 ZR2
Equipment group: 2WT, 4WT 2LT, 4LT 2Z7, 4Z7 4ZR

Exterior

On the outside, the most notable change for the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado is a slightly-revised front fascia:

  • WT, LT and Z71 models feature updated center bars, lower fascias, and skid plates
  • ZR2 gets a new front fascia that looks more aggressive than before, while also giving drivers improved visibility, according to Chevrolet

As of this writing, photos of the Colorado WT, LT and Z71 are not available.

The revised front ends also feature new Chevrolet emblems:

Additionally, the Colorado ZR2 now features red tow hooks as standard equipment.

The rear of all 2021 Colorado models now features embossed “Chevrolet” tailgates, replacing the traditional Chevy bowtie.

Three new colors join the color palette, while five others are deleted:

New colors:

  • Bright Blue Metallic
  • Cherry Red Tintcoat
  • Sand Dune Metallic

Deleted colors:

  • Pacific Blue Metallic
  • Silver Ice Metallic
  • Kinetic Blue Metallic
  • Shadow Gray Metallic
  • Cajun Red Tintcoat

There are also some changes to the wheels and tires that are offered, as follows:

New wheels:

  • 17-in x 8-in Ultra Silver Metallic steel wheels (RAP)
  • 17-in x 8-in (43.2 cm x 20.3 cm) Bright Machined aluminum wheels (RIM)

Deleted wheels:

  • 16-in x 7-in (40.6-cm x 17.8-cm) Ultra Silver Metallic steel wheel (RS2)
  • 16-in x 7-in (40.6-cm x 17.8-cm) Ultra Silver Metallic cast aluminum wheels (RS1)
  • 17-in x 8-in (43.2-cm x 20.3-cm) Dark Argent Metallic cast aluminum wheels (R28)
  • 20-in Low Gloss Black aluminum wheels (RTH)

The 16-x7-inch steel spare wheel and tire is being replaced by a 17-x-8-inch steel wheel and tire.

Since the Work Truck trim has been discontinued, so has the optional Work Truck Appearance package, which included:

  • 16-inch by 7-inch (40.6 cm x 17.8 cm) Ultra Silver Metallic cast aluminum wheels
  • Outside power-adjustable, body-color, remote, manual-folding mirrors
  • Spotter mirror
  • Body-color rear bumper
  • Chrome beltline moldings
  • Body-color door handles

The 2021 Chevrolet Colorado exterior features the following LPO-level changes:

New LPO items:

  • Black tailgate lettering
  • Accessory Suspension Leveling Kit

Deleted LPO items:

  • Bedliner (VZX)
  • Chevrolet Lettered Grille (RZB)
  • Grille (VAT)
  • RST badge (RIN)

Rounding out the changes is the deletion of the windshield shade band on all models.

Deletion of Colorado RST Special Edition, which was available on LT models and included:

  • Black beltline molding
  • Spray-on bedliner
  • 255/55R20 all-season blackwall tires (QQD)
  • (RTH) 20-inch Low Gloss Black aluminum wheels
  • CHEVROLET lettered grille
  • Rear Black bowtie
  • RST Badge (LPO-level item)
  • Black bodyside molding (LPO-level item)
  • Black Colorado nameplate (LPO-level item)

Deletion of Colorado Trail Runner Special Edition, which was available on Z71 models and included:

  • CHEVROLET lettered grille
  • Rear Black bowtie
  • 31-inch Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires (QJ2)
  • Accent Lighting (LPO-level item)
  • Off-Road rocker protection (LPO-level item)
  • Front skid plate (LPO-level item)
  • Mid skid plate (LPO-level item)

Looking Ahead

The 2021 Colorado is as close as we’ll get to a midcycle refresh for the current, second-generation model. We expect the Chevrolet Colorado in its current form at least through the 2023 model year. At that point, the vehicle will be overhauled (redesigned and engineered) on an updated version of the same GMT-31XX platform, dubbed 31XX-2.

Though the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak has delayed various GM refreshes, pushing back the 2021 Traverse and 2021 Equinox to the 2022 model year, GM Authority has confirmed with GM spokespeople that the 2021 Colorado is still on track for its launch in spring 2020. Given that the GM Wentzville plant in Missouri is currently idled as a result of the virus, it’s unclear when the revised truck will actually come to market.

We’ll keep our ears to the ground and report back when we know more, so be sure to subscribe to GM Authority for the latest Chevrolet Colorado news, Chevrolet news, and ongoing GM news coverage.
