MSD Atomic EFI Review

Posted on April 30th, by VCC_Admin in Blog. No Comments

One of my goals this year is to replace the carburetor on my Big Block
Chevelle with a fuel injection unit. The MSD folks in El Paso, Texas have
developed a unit that has a lot of great features. As MSD is a proven
manufacture of aftermarket performance equipment I will probably go with the
MSD unit. I have included a YouTube video of a test done on the unit.

I am currently working on finding some local shops that will give us a good
price on the unit and the installation.

Thanks
John Kearns

Erv and Carol Gibbs at the 2009 VCC Dust off Cruise

Posted on April 14th, by VCC_Admin in Member Gallery. No Comments

Erv purchased his 1949 Jeepster from an Auto Junk Yard in Southern
California for $500.00

The car was partially dismantled and covered in a pile of rubble but Erv
took the car home and started to perform a ground up restoration to original
condition. After 2 1/2 years of hard work Erv got his Jeepster running and
was able to drive out of the garage.

In 1995 the car was 90% complete and entered in its first car show, since
then it has appeared in numerous shows and received numerous awards
including a top three award at the VCC 2010 Classic Rock Cruise In.

Brandon’s 1981 DeLorean DMC-12

Posted on April 4th, by VCC_Admin in Member Gallery. No Comments

Brandon found this DeLorean DMC-12 in 2005 out of Atlanta, Georgia.  Sitting for nearly 5 years, Brandon had the vehicle transported to Colorado and began the long 5 year journey to a continuing frame-off restoration.

The entire body was pulled off the frame and the frame including suspension parts were powder-coated and put back together using new bolts.  A 3.0L 1990 PRV (Peugot Renault Volvo) Engine was provided with the vehicle (due to the original engine being damaged), providing an EFI engine as the power plant instead of the old Bosch mechanical fuel injection system of the original 2.8L PRV engine.  Most of the interior had been replaced by the original owner but as with any vehicle you are restoring, it’s always a work in progress.

This DeLorean was originally painted a dark blue color (due to some minor body damage) but … Read More »



John & Carol’s 1971 Chevelle Convertible at the Atwood Early Rod Run

Posted on April 3rd, by VCC_Admin in Member Gallery. No Comments

Our Chevelle originally sold on 06/17/1971 by H & H Chevrolet in Omaha
Nebraska to George Rogers Sr of Omaha. No relation to the Rogers of Mr.
Rogers Neighborhood fame.

The car went through several owners in Nebraska, Iowa, and South Dakota
until it was donated from a living trust to a small private college in Sioux
City, Iowa. The car was raffled as a fund raiser and the new owner won the
car with a $1.00 raffle ticket. There was at least one more owner until the
car migrated to Colorado Springs and then to Denver.

I purchased the car in October 2001 and decided that the car was in need of
many modifications even though it only had 30,000 original miles.

What I found out is you are never really finished with a classic car and it
always needs some addition or modification. I guess that is why we … Read More »

Roger Maddaford’s 1969 Pontiac Firebird!

Posted on March 30th, by VCC_Admin in Member Gallery. No Comments

Roger is the third owner of this numbers-matching Firebird that was originally sold from Tate Motors in Pomona, California in October 1968.  When he brought it home from the Pomona Swap Meet in 1996 it was in rough, but original, condition, and it never broke down over its two-year assignment as his son’s high school ride.  When his son went away to college Roger decided to have the engine “freshened up” after 116,000 miles.  When the engine came back from the shop it was all shiny and new looking, and he just couldn’t put it back in that nasty engine compartment.  One thing led to another, and five years and a lot of money later he finished the off-frame restoration.  Roger did all of the work except the engine, paint and vinyl roof.  The color is Warwick Blue, which is … Read More »
