DFW Speed Shop is selling their 1969 GMC C15. The GMC shorty was completely restored by DFW Speed Shop in late
March 2016. The truck was found in a garage in downtown Dallas where it sat since the late 1980's. It was pulled
out of its hibernation and completely tore down to the bare frame. The frame was blasted and then powder-coated.
Every bushing from the control arms to the body were replaced. The original 12 bolt was rebuilt and a auburn posi
unit and a set of Moser axels were installed. For the suspension, we installed new front drop springs, front drop
spindles, and flipped the rear end to get it low to the ground. The rear leafs were checked and rebuilt. We also
installed disc brakes all around, new master cylinder, and adjustable proportioning valve. The tired original
inline 6 was replaced for a fresh 402 big block and is backed by a M20 Muncie 4speed which was completely gone
through.The exhaust is true duels with a x-pipe which exits right under the steps of the bed (all custom and built
in house). The body was sent to our friends at Sevens Garage for paint. The body was completely taken apart and
any rust that was present was cut out and replaced with new panels. The body and inside the cab was undercoated
for protection. The body was set up in primer before painting and matte clear. The interior is an original hounds
tooth bench and was completely rebuilt. Also a new steering column from CPP was installed. The inside of the cab
was completely restored to its former glory. The door panels were cleaned up and clear coated to preserve the
original patina. The gas tank was relocted to the rear under the bed then plumbed with 6AN braided fuel line all
the to the 790cfm Holley Double Pumper. The wood bed was also completely rebuilt. There is way to much to list
about this truck. A lot of labor and love went into the build of this shorty. This was a nut and bolt restoration
and this truck is very tight. This truck was built to get beat on and have fun with. No corners were cut with
this GMC and it hides no secrets. All the recipts to the build are available to the buyer. This is a hardcore
shorty c15 with no power steering or power brakes. Just a big motor and a muncie 4 speed. E-Mail me with any
questions.

IIHS gives good ratings to 4 of 8 midsize pickups in crash test
Wed, Sep 6 2017Versions of the Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon Crew Cab earned top ratings in a new crash test of midsize pickup trucks from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, while two versions of the Nissan Frontier earned marginal ratings. But the organization gave poor marks to all eight pickups tested for their dim headlights. Overall, four of the eight pickups evaluated earned good ratings for protecting occupants in all five crash test categories — the Tacoma double cab along with crew cab versions of the Colorado, Canyon and Tacoma. But the poor headlights and lack of an automatic emergency braking system blocked any of the pickups from qualifying for the IIHS's Top Safety Pick awards. The study looked at two pickup body styles using 2017 models: crew cabs, which have four full doors and two full rows of seating, and extended cabs, which have two full front doors, two smaller rear doors and compact second-row seats. It subjected each to five tests, and it evaluated the performance of front crash prevention systems and headlights. The Toyota Tacoma crew cab was the only pickup in that class that earned a good rating for structure in the small overlap test, which replicates what happens when a vehicle clips a tree, pole or another vehicle that has crossed the center line. The model's Access Cab extended-cab version was rated similarly, though its structure was rated acceptable. "This group of small pickups performed better in the small overlap front test than many of their larger pickup cousins," says David Zuby, the Institute's executive vice president and chief research officer. "The exception was the Nissan Frontier, which hasn't had a structural redesign since the 2005 model year." The extended-cab versions of the Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon earned acceptable ratings, while both the Nissan Frontier king-cab and crew-cab models were rated marginal. Toyota says its 2018 Tacoma will feature upgraded headlights and a standard autobraking system that can detect pedestrians. "Headlights are basic but vital safety equipment. Drivers shouldn't have to give up the ability to see the road at night when they choose a small pickup," Zuby said.

GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

Nissan Leaf keeps plug-in vehicle sales crown for 6th straight month
Thu, May 1 2014And Nissan makes it 14 in a row. For the 14th straight month, the all-electric Leaf has had "record sales," according to Nissan's marketing team. What that means is that for that particular month (in this case, April) no matter what year you look at, the car sold more than it ever did before. For April 2014, the 2,088 Leafs sold represents a 7.8-percent increase from 2013. Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said in a statement that the "new market" of Cincinnati made the top 25 list for Leaf sales areas in April, so the car's popularity continues to ebb and flow across the US. Over at Chevy, the Volt sold 1,548 units in April, reaching a year-to-date total of 5,154. The Leaf is outpacing that with 7,272 YTD sales. In 2013, the Volt outsold the Leaf by about 500 vehicles, but Leaf sales are up 33 percent year-over-year while Volt is down 7.1 percent. The Leaf has also outsold the Volt for six straight months. But we're excited for every eco-car sale, and that's why we'll have our monthly detailed write-up of the rest of the plug-ins, hybrids and diesel vehicles available soon. Until then, discuss.
