1969 Chevy short bed truck for sale. It was restored 18 months ago using house of kolor paint. Its a combination of galaxy grey metallic base, six kandy apple red mid coats, HOK clear coats and topped off with HOK flow clear. The exterior is show quality and you can definitely tell by the shine and depth of the paint. You don't see many true kandy paint jobs and so when I do take it out you get a lot of attention and compliments. The pictures don't show the real effect of the HOK paint but you can tell that it "flops and pops" in the sun...its kinda like going from a burgundy to a bright red color in the sun. It was hard to even find someone that would be willing to paint a Tri HOK job (didn't help it was a dark color and body had to be perfect). You have to trim everything in (like firewall, door jambs) and then fully assemble the vehicle before painting it all at the same time in order to not get stripes or shading. Everything but the rolling chassis was taken apart during the restoration. The body lines are better than factory...I actually went through 5 doors before finding the correct fit. The motor was also replaced and has less than 1000 miles. It is a brand new custom built 454 full roller and balanced motor that was rated around 650 hp by the builder. It has a solid roller cam and has a very lopey sound. It has several new external motor parts like Holly 750 carburetor, MSD ignition, 4 core aluminum radiator, new wiring harness, ceramic coated headers, chrome alternator and chrome power steering pump. I just installed new 40 series flow master exhaust and it sounds awesome. With the exhaust out the back you don't get the drone sound in the cab but you can sure hear the motor when you are turning 7000 rpm. I live on a gravel road and since I had it restored (about 18 months ago) its only been out a few times. I spent so much time and money restoring it and don't want to ruin it by flying gravel so it just sits in the garage. This is 1 of 3 trucks (66 and 71) I have and I need to make room for one of my kids project cars...this truck is way too nice and powerful for a new driver. Only serious bidders please...this is a very nice custom truck that has a lot of power and needs someone that can appreciate and take care of a show car quality vehicle.

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
