Super Chevy, CARS Inc. and the Roadster Shop Unite to Launch Project American Heroes: Brands Will Work Together to Build and Auction a Custom 1957 Chevy
for U.S. Military Personnel in Need

BusinessWire

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) May 2, 2007

    ”Project American Heroes is a fantastic opportunity to give back to the military personnel who have sacrificed so much,” said Super Chevy (http://www.superchevy.com) magazine publisher, Ed Zinke. “Many of them share our passion for the automobile, so we could think of no better outlet than the creation of the ultimate ’57 Chevy.”

Kicking off this summer, multiple partners will unite and contribute to the ’57 Chevy dream car build. CARS Inc. will supply the steel body and complete interior as well as a full compliment of exterior trim pieces, body moldings, and miscellaneous components; everything necessary to outfit a complete car. The Roadster Shop will equip the body with one of its custom frames as well as building the complete turnkey vehicle. Most importantly, Armed Forces personnel can participate in the project online by selecting the color schemes, interior designs, and exterior trims via the Project American Heroes Web site (http://www.projectamericanheroes.org).

Additional contributors to Project American Heroes include several leading brands in the performance automotive aftermarket industry such as Heidts Hot Rod Shop, Air Ride, Holley, Moser, Stainless Steel Brakes, Competition Cams, K&N, Nitto Tires, and Flaming River among others.

Super Chevy readers will be involved every step of the way, following the complete build across multiple issues of the magazine. Starting in the August issue (on newsstands June 26th), the magazine will include articles focused on distinct portions of the project vehicle, including frame, body, suspension, engine, driveline, and paint. Coverage will continue throughout the summer leading up to the final Barrett-Jackson auction experience in Scottsdale Arizona next January. Super Chevy will also be chronicling the build process for a 100-page newsstand-only special issue in September.

More information on this exciting program can be found on Super Chevy’s web site, http://www.superchevy.com or at http://www.projectamericanheroes.org where additional donations will be accepted for this worthy cause.

Get the Charm of Modified Cars and High Performance Car Part With P/l:

When it comes to quality and reliable service then Prestige Motorsport P/L is unparalleled through out the industry. Even though it possesses the right to deal in the importation sector still it is earning reputation as a vehicle broker in the industry. Its main motto is customer service and this is the reason why it imports cars from Japan to various other parts of the world at a very reasonable cost. All the fees are limited to real importing costs only. There is no dealer commission or any other hidden charges. Each time more and more customers are adding to this company. Because people know that they will never get such services anywhere else in the market and they trust the proven name. For Prestige, the centre of importing vehicles is Japan because here the variety of vehicle choice is extremely vast. But now further to providing importation services it is also serving the customers with modified cars and high performance car part.

Now-a-days, more people prefer to modify their vehicles and cars are also not an exception to them. The sector of modified cars is quiet huge with the availability of several companies making it quite difficult for the people to make the right choice. Some of the companies claim to offer best services but to increase their margin of profit they use car parts that are not much durable in nature. They offer guarantee for a small period of time but after that customers suffer due to accessories of inferior quality. If you are importing motor cars from abroad then it is anticipated that it offers high performance every time. Hence, it is imperative to have each high performance car part in excellent working condition. With Prestige Motorsport P/L you will get the same at the original cost excluding any kind of marketing trick. 

 Prestige delivers the modified cars via shipping with all the requirements and alterations in a precise way. If you are going for a car with certain changes in its parts then it is very important to have a very keen look on the performance parts. It is significant that you know what type of power you are looking for in your modified vehicle. Some of the people try to install high performance car part with their own mechanical skills. But this is not possible with large sized or sophisticated accessories like larger fuel injectors. While dealing with Prestige you need not to counter such terrible circumstances. You will not get disappointed at any cost and receive the same that you have dreamed off in your modified vehicle.

In modified cars some of the parts play a very major role in enhancing the horsepower. With Prestige you need not to fret about some of the parts like high flowing cylinder heads, camshafts, and nitrous oxide. Some of the parts may not get suited with main devices of the car. With Prestige Motorsport P/L all the parts are individually tested and it can easily be estimated which part is not functioning in a proper way. Many companies used to add more than one high performance car part at a single time. In such cases, it is quite difficult to understand which part is responsible for the bad performance of vehicle.   

Prestige prefers to add superlative parts in the modified cars that not only improve the horsepower but also the efficiency of the car. For high performance car part, Prestige gives more priority to original performance parts instead of factory parts. Both do not offer any kind of extra burden of cost on the customer but when it comes to power and overall quality then performance parts undeniably wins the race.
