FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS THIS 1969 CHEVY PICKUP SEMI-PRO STREET PROJECT THAT INCLUDES JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING TO COMPLETE WHAT WAS TO BE ONE REALLY NICE STREET-ABLE AND VERY FAST CLASSIC PICKUP.

THIS IS PROBABLY THE WORST TIME & WAY FOR ME TO SELL THIS TRUCK BUT HEALTH REASONS LEAVE NO CHOICE.

BEFORE I GO INTO WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION LET ME EXPLAIN WHAT HAS HAPPENED UP TO DATE.

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK ON EBAY IN 2001 IN COMPLETE RUNNING CONDITION WITH A 350 CU.IN. SUMMIT RACING LONG BLOCK AND A TH400 AUTOMATIC TRANS. IT HAS 4:56 GEARS AND WHILE IT RAN NICE I WANTED IT CLOSER TO AN 11 SECOND 1/4 MILE EVERYDAY DRIVER PICKUP. AT THE TIME I HAD A FULLY OUTFITTED PRIVATE SPEED SHOP AND WAS RESTORING SEVERAL MUSCLE CARS AND TWO 23' ELIMINATOR DAYTONA'S SO THROWING IN ONE MORE PROJECT WAS NO BIG DEAL.

THE EXISTING ENGINE IN THE TRUCK SOUNDED MEAN BUT DIDN'T BACK IT UP ON THE ROAD SO I PULLED THE ENGINE AND TRANS AND REMOVED MOST OF THE INTERIOR WITH THE INTENT OF REPLACING IT ALL WITH NEW CLASSIC INDUSTRIES PARTS.

THE NEW ENGINE CAME IN. A NEW 700R4 RAPTOR TRANS WITH A 4200 STALL CONVERTER CAME IN. THIS PACKAGE WAS INSTALLED AND I PUT THE BREAK-IN TIME ON THE ENGINE BEFORE WE TRYED A FEW HOLE SHOTS IN FRONT OF THE SHOP. THE TRUCK LAUNCHES STRAIGHT ARROW AND TRACTION WAS EXCELLENT. IT PULLED THE FRONT TIRES 3-4" OFF THE GROUND FOR 40' WHILE STILL PROVIDING A NICE SMOKE SHOW 3 TIMES OUT OF 3 TRY'S.

THATS AS FAR AS I GOT WHEN MY WIFE BECAME SERIOUSLY ILL. AFTER ONE YEAR SHE NEEDED FULL-TIME CARE SO WITH THE SHOP BEING LOCKED UP FOR A YEAR MOST ALL THE PROJECT VEHICLES & BOATS WERE SOLD OFF TO PAY MEDICAL BILLS BUT I KEPT THIS PICKUP. I HAD TO TAKE AN EARLY RETIREMENT AND WE MOVED FROM CA TO AR IN 2003 TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE ON MUCH LESS MONEY. FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS IT LIVED UNDER A TARP UNTIL I BUILT A BARN/SHOP TO STORE IT. SEVERAL YEARS LATER MY WIFE DIED AND I HAD A WORN OUT HIP AND ONE BAD KNEE SO THOSE SURGERIES KEPT ME INDOORS FOR ANOTHER YEAR. I LOST INTEREST IN FINISHING THIS TRUCK AS MY AGE KREPT UP AND NOW BAD HEALTH KEEPS ME FROM GETTING IT RUNNING AGAIN AND FINISHING WHAT I STARTED. WHILE SITTING FOR SO MANY YEARS AND NOT RUNNING, THE ENGINE HAS LOCKED UP AND THE BRAKES LOST ALL FLUID. PROBABLY CRACKED RUBBER BRAKES HOSES THAT LEAKED. WHY THE ENGINE IS LOCKED I HAVE NO IDEA. IT WAS PARKED RUNNING JUST FINE SO IT MUST BE MOISTURE IN THE CYLINDERS BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW OR WHEN IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. THERE IS DEFINITELY NOTHING BROKEN IN THIS ENGINE.

SO HERE IS WHAT COMES WITH THIS PICKUP:

THE TRUCK ITSELF LOOKS GOOD WITH VERY LITTLE BODYWORK NEEDED TO HAVE IT READY FOR ANOTHER COLOR COAT. EXISTING PAINT HAS NEVER BUBBLED AND IS STILL A GOOD BASE IF YOU KEEP THE SAME COLOR. THE FLOOR PANS ARE SOLID AND THE FRAME LOOKS GOOD. I HAVE NOT PRESSURE WASHED IT OR EVEN CLEANED IT AT ALL SINCE MOVING IT HERE SO YOU'LL SEE A FEW REMNANTS OF WEEDS ON THE UNDERSIDE. IT HAS A DROPPED FRONT END WHICH OFFERS 4" OF GROUND CLEARANCE LETTING THE TRUCK SIT LOW AS THE BACK END IS ONLY A COUPLE INCHES HIGHER. DISK BRAKES IN FRONT, DRUMS IN THE REAR. POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING, AIR CONDITIONING (IS NOT CHARGED), POWER WINDOW KIT IS HALF INSTALLED BUT EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED TO FINISH IT, NEW ONE-PIECE DOOR GLASS WINDOWS SINCE THE WING WINDOWS WERE DELETED. ENOUGH DYNAMAT TO SOUNDPROOF THE INTERIOR FLOOR AND PART WAY UP THE BODY, STEREO CD/ RADIO PLUS A BASE BOX AND DOOR SPEAKERS, NEW HEADLINER AND DOOR PANELS, NEW GUAGES WITH PODS ON NEW DASH PAD WITH EXTRA GAUGES AND ORIGINAL INSTRUMENT PANEL. NEW BLACK FABRIC BUCKET SEATS WITH A SEPARATE FOLD-DOWN CENTER CONSOLE/ARMREST THAT WHEN FOLDED UP ALLOWS A THIRD PASSENGER. NEW BLACK CARPET.

THE REAR FENDER WELLS HAVE BEEN ADDED ON WITH A MINI TUB KIT NOW ALLOWING A LARGER OFFSET RIM FOR WIDE SLICKS. DIFFERENTIAL IS POSI AND HAS 4:56 GEARS. ALUMINUM FUEL CELL ( I BELIEVE 15 GAL) AND THE SENDING UNIT IS INCLUDED. HIGH FLOW ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP AND SEPARATE CANISTER FUEL FILTER WITH ALL BRAIDED HOSES AND EARLS FITTINGS. 2 IN-LINE TRANSMISSIONS COOLER FINNED PIPING UNITS RUNNING DOWN RIGHT SIDE OF THE FRAME WITH BRAIDED LINES AND EARLS FITTINGS.

THE TRANSMISSION IS A CUSTOM ORDERED 700 RAPTOR STAGE 3 WITH A 4200 - 4500 STALL CONVERTER, 4 SPEED AUTOMATIC CONTROLLED BY A HURST RATCHET SHIFTER.

THE ENGINE IS A BORED AND STROKED 350 BUILT TO 383 CU.IN, 500 PLUS HP AND I DO NOT REMEMBER THE TORQUE #'S. I ORDERED IT WITH FULLY FORGED INTERNALS, 11.5 COMPRESSION, ALUMINUM DART LARGE VALVE HEADS, ROLLER ROCKERS, MSD IGNITION AND DISTRIBUTOR, HOLLEY CARB, CERAMIC COATED HEADERS, REQUIRES 102 TO 104 OCTANE. OCTANE BOOSTER SUCH AS TORCO ADDED TO PREMIUM UNLEADED WORKED FINE OR RACING FUEL BUT THAT'S AN EXPENSIVE WAY TO GO.

ALL IN ALL I HAVE EVERYTHING THAT CAME OFF THE TRUCK OTHER THAN THE OLD ENGINE AND TRANS WHICH IS INCLUDED ALONG WITH ALL THE NEW PARTS ALL BOUGHT IN 2001. THE BENCH SEAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES IS UNBOLTED AND LOOSE JUST FOR USING IT WHILE MOVING THE TRUCK. IT GOES WITH THE TRUCK AS WELL IF YOU WANT IT OTHERWISE I CAN DISPOSE OF IT IF YOU LEAVE IT BEHIND.

THE ENGINE RAN ME $6,500.00, THE TRANS WAS $1,800.00, INTERIOR PARTS INCLUDING GAUGES WERE $1,600.00 AND ANOTHER $2,000.00 IN BRAIDED LINES, ALUMINUM RADIATOR, COOLING FAN, WIRING HARNESSES, FUEL PUMP AND FILTER. $560.00 FOR NEW FRONT TIRES AND NEW M/T STREET SLICKS & ANOTHER $400.00 FOR THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH MUFFLERS. BECAUSE THE TIRES WERE DRIED OUT I JUST INSTALLED NEW FRONTS AND M/T REARS LAST SUMMER.

THE TRUCK ITSELF COST ME $6,500.00 IN OK CONDITION BUT IN NEED OF RESTORATION TO REALLY ENJOY IT. THAT WAS A VERY GOOD BUY CONSIDERING IT IS REALLY HARD TO FIND AN ORIGINAL SHORT BED FLEET SIDE FROM THE 60'S.

THE RESERVE IS SET AT LESS THAN HALF OF WHAT I HAVE SPENT FOR EVERYTHING.

THERE WOULD BE NO DISAPPOINTMENTS BUYING THIS PROJECT IF YOU HAVE SOME SPARE TIME AND WANT A HEAD TURNING CLASSIC PICKUP THAT CAN RUN AS MEAN AS IT SOUNDS.

ONCE AGAIN, THIS TRUCK IS NOT RUNNING AND NEEDS TO BE WINCHED ON A TRAILER.

IT IS OFFERED FOR SALE AS-IS AND WHERE-IS WITH NO WARRANTY.

Leak reveals GM's 2017 heavy duty diesel trucks to get 910 lb-ft of torque [UPDATE]

Tue, Sep 27 2016

UPDATE: Chevrolet officially announced specs for the 2017 Silverado HD and the rumors were true. The truck's new Duramax 6.6-liter turbo-diesel V8 puts out 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. Chevrolet says the new motor produces 19 percent more torque and 12 percent more horsepower, while producing 35 percent fewer emissions. Overall, the new engine is a big improvement over the current motor, which generates 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque. According to Truck Trend, GM's newest heavy duty pickup trucks will pick up quite a bit more power and torque. The publication spotted a recent GM Powertrain ordering catalog that had the engine specs for the 2017 model year and managed to get some screenshots before the catalog was taken down, and they can be viewed here. The screenshots revealed that the 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 powering the Silverado and Sierra heavy duty models will boast 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. This is a substantial gain over the current models' 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, and as Truck Trend points out, it exceeds the Ford Super Duty line's horsepower output of 440, but comes short of the 925 lb-ft rating. Truck Trend credits part of this output gain to the new intake system GM will introduce on the 2017 heavy duties. The intake gets 60 percent of its air from a scoop on the hood, with the other 40 percent coming from behind one of the front fenders. GM doesn't reveal horsepower figures in the press release about the scoop, but it does say the cooler air helps with maintaining the engine's output, and that the scoop does produce a ram-air affect, providing more air at speed. As we know, more air plus more fuel equals more power, but there's likely more to the power increase in this engine than only the intake.

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
