The Chevrolet SSR--An American Revolution

Few cars embody the perfect blend of past and present so dramaticaly captured by General Motors from 2003 through 2006 in the form of the Chevrolet SSR--a super-sport roadster, high performing, convertible hard top pickup truck. Only 24,150 of these mean machines were built at the Lansing Craft Center in Lansing, Michigan with final production ending in 2006. I'm the proud owner of a Smokin' Asphalt Final Production model with the chrome package and like many other SSR Fanatics, I'm convinced that few other vehicles can offer the pride of ownership and the adrenaline rush that you feel whether you're behind the wheel crusing the boulevard, hitting the gas on an open strech of road or simple admiring the truck while parked at a curb. This lens will point to all things SSR and offer helpful resources for owners and admirers alike.

WARNING: ULTRACOOL CAR LENS

The lens you are about to view is a startling collection of all things Chevrolet SSR. As this is an ultra-cool vehicle that will excite and engage the senses, you are advised to continue at your own risk.

Jim G's e-book "The SSR Experience"
A $30 ebook by Jim Gnitecki. This description is from Jim's post to SSRFanatic.com: "For those who do not yet know it, last year I completed an e-book called "The SSR Experience". The book is a complete guide to choosing, buying, living with, and modifying an SSR. It runs 320 pages of strong, no fluff content. The book is beautifully illustrated with 113 very high quality digital photos, plus 21 graphs, charts, dyno curves, and G-Tech screen shots - most of them also in full color. All dyno curves and G-Tech screen shots are fully explained. This book is THE (and ONLY!) definitive guide to selecting, owning, and modifying an SSR."
