Fluffy’s 1969 Chevelle SS Featured: Comedian Gabriel Iglesias Went To Barrett Jackson To Sell Cars, And Ended Up With A New One

If you aren’t familiar with comedian Gabriel Iglesias then you must live under a rock. What everyone might not know is that Gabriel, aka Fluffy, is a car enthusiast who has some pretty good taste as is evident by this clean 1969 Chevelle that he picked up at Barrett Jackson. What’s funny is that he wasn’t there to buy a car, but rather to sell a couple. As car guys and girls we all understand that you can’t help but want to bring something new home when you visit a place like Barrett Jackson.

I of course can’t afford to buy something at Barrett Jackson, so I’m just going to live vicariously through Fluffy.

This video here is from Jay Leno’s garage, and those guys clearly know how to do a car feature so we hope you enjoy it.

Video Description:

Gabriel Iglesias went to Barrett-Jackson to sell cars but ended up buying this cherry Chevelle. Come along for his first drive!

This Hill Climb Racing Video From Scotland Will Blow Your Mind – Incredible Speed and Skill At The Donue Hill Climb

Image
We’ve always loved looking at hill climb footage over the years but this right here makes the majority of the guys we have showed in the past look like they were cruising barcaloungers through the English countryside. Here, you will see a camera mounted on the top of an open wheeled race car attacking an event called the Doune Hill Climb in Scotland. The driver, who may or may not be superhuman is a dude named Jos Goodyear (and if we were the tire company we’d be on the phone with this cat NOW) and to say that he is both fearless and exceptionally talented is selling him way short. Hill climb racing has been a staple of automotive competition in Europe for a long, long time. There’s limited hill climb action here in the USA with events that range from the huge like Pikes Peak and the Mount Washington hill climb to vintage events that are far less intense than what you will see here. Unless we are really missing something, we’re not sure that there’s anything on the level of what you a...

MSD Introduces Affordable Relay Modules for High-Powered Automotive Electronics Control.

Image
The electronics in cars are getting smarter, more powerful, and in some cases more power hungry. Yes there are advancements in things like LED lighting that drastically reduce the power needed, but at the same time there are more and more electrical items in today’s cars. And that technology is spilling over into hot rods, customs, and race cars because we are using more and more technology even in rides that never came with it from the factory. New cars have much larger alternators than our 1960’s muscle cars ever came with, and with new engine swaps and such all that comes with it. But controlling all these electrical loads now falls to the installer, because there isn’t a factory electrical system in place to do it for them. That’s where Relays come into play. At their core, a relay is really quite simple. Here’s how they work. Think of a relay as a high-power capable switch. One that can handle 20, 40, or even 60 amps of power running through it. But this switch is remote-control...

Happy 4/10! No We’re Not Talking Sprint Car Engines, Rather A Pair Of Forgotten Oldies From The MEL and FE Families

Image
We’re here with a pair of blue oval products that were both short-lived and while of the same displacement they were not related at all. Interestingly Ford produced a 410ci of the MEL engine and then nearly a decade later they produced a 410ci of the FE big block series. The first 410 we’ll look at is the MEL engine which was produced to power the Edsel Corsair and Citation models. It was only used in those two cars and as best we can tell, it was only used for that model year. Most people know the much larger versions of the engine which went up to 430ci and then the biggest which was 462ci at its peak. The MEL 410 was a runner with 345hp and over 400 lb/ft of torque at its disposal. That horsepower and torque came in handy to move the large and heavy cars down the road. Hot rodders flirted with the MEL engines of the time and if you can believe it there were some dragsters that ran them and C-T strokers actually produced a kit to take one out to 500ci in the 1960s. That was a mounta...
