Up for bid today is a very easy project. This is a 1965 chevy stepside 2wd pickup truck. This truck runs and drives well, with a little more bodywork and paint, it could make a very nice piece. All of the rust was cut out of the cab and replaced with new metal. The floor pans have been molded and painted both underneath and inside. The original frame has been boxed and molded as well, and shot with a metallic silver base/clear. The truck rests on a set of 20” KMC wheels with good rubber. The wheels were powder coated silver at one time, and look good for a driver. Powered by a carbureted 307 small block chevy engine, coupled to a 3 speed manual transmission, the truck will run and drive good. It sounds nice with dual exhaust and glasspacks. The cab of the truck has already had all major repair done and was shot in a rootbeerish brown metallic color. The body has since gotten a few small dings and scratches. The bed is in red oxide primer, still needing some bodywork. The fiberglass bed cover was modified to fit the truck and looks awesome on it, although it could still use some bodywork as well. Hard wood and polished stainless look nice being used as the bed floor, along with harley Davidson brake lights out back. The inside of the cab is two-toned the rootbeerish color and silver metallic. A pair of bucket seats fit nicely, but could use covers to match. The truck does have a cd player in it with one speaker wired up for a little sound. Loads of new rubber keep the truck tight and dry. It does need an alignment and the tires balanced. A lot of time, hard work, and money has already been spent on this very nice driver. Loss of interest, bills, and other projects have lead to the point of selling this wonderful truck. It has a clear title ready to transfer. This truck is being sold as-is with no warranties or guarantees due to being used and the age. Please feel free to ask any questions prior to bidding. Any potential buyers are encouraged to come see the truck in person as well as test drive. A $500 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours of the ending of the auction, with the balance to be paid in full in cash upon pickup. I cannot/will not ship, that is the buyer’s responsibility. Thanks for looking!
THIS TRUCK IS FOR SALE LOCALLY ALSO, SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION AT ANY TIME!
the title says exceeds mechanical limits, so I assume the mileage isn't correct

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
Camaro-based Trans Am SE Bandit Edition borrows Burt Reynolds
Tue, Mar 29 2016For some reason, modifying modern Chevrolet Camaros into the lurching, reincarnated shells of the Pontiac brand is still a thing. If you're the perverse sort that likes this kind of thing, you should check out the latest product from the Trans Am Depot, which comes complete with an endorsement from the star of Smokey and the Bandit, Burt Reynolds. Yes, the new Trans Am SE Bandit Edition has been signed and endorsed by the man himself, but what's important here is not the signature on the dash, it's the bits of Camaro that have been modified. Aesthetically, that means a Bandit-and-Frog-approved set of T-tops, a front-opening hood with a very large, prominent shaker scoop, an equally large and prominent screaming chicken, and Trans Am-inspired front and rear fascias. And naturally, Burt Reynolds' signature adorns the dash. There are plenty of reminders in the cabin about this car's Hollywood inspiration, too. Bandit decals can be found on the front headrests and center console lid, there are chicken wings on the Camaro-spec plastic door inserts, and the black-and-tan color scheme matches nicely with the exterior look. And power? Well, Sheriff Buford T. Justice would have a lot more trouble keeping up with this Trans Am than he did with the original. The 7.4-liter LSX V8 has been paired with a 2.9-liter supercharger which is good for 840 horsepower. It's fast and loud, and even if you can't get behind the look (we can't), at least this Camaro-in-Trans Am's clothing can impress with its performance. The Bandit Edition is limited to just 77 units with prices starting around $115,000. You can check out the official video from Trans Am Depot, which comes with a decent helping of Burt Reynolds, up top. Related Video:
2015 Chevy Volt gets larger battery, though range remains the same
Sat, Jul 19 2014The Chevrolet Volt isn't changing much for the 2015 model year. According to specifications uncovered by Inside EVs, though, the new Volt's battery does have a slightly larger capacity. According to the spec sheet, this doesn't translate to increased range. Real world driving, though, might tell a different story. The 2015 Volt's battery storage is slightly higher than the outgoing model's, up from 16.5 kilowatt-hours to 17.1 kWh. According to GM's manager of electrification technology communications, Kevin Kelly, speaking to Green Car Reports, the increased capacity is "a late change done in the cell... just another continuous improvement to surprise and delight our customers." The stated electric range, however, stays at 38 miles. Inside EVs followed up on its original report, and found that drivers could see some advantage to the battery tweak. When they spoke to Kelly, he told them, "As a result of this change, we would expect that some customers may see a slight improvement in overall EV range." It's worth noting that when battery capacity increased from 16 kWh to 16.5 kWh for the 2013 Volt, electric range increased by three miles to the current 38, while MPGe went from 94 to 98. The price of the 2015 Chevrolet Volt remains steady, at $34,995. The actual cost to the customer is considerably less with the $7,500 federal tax credit, as well as any local incentives.
