Crate 350 w/Automatic Trans - just a few years old with very low miles (estimating 5500) - engine runs/drives GREAT! Starts immediately.  Tracks and drives very well on the highway. Real head-turner and lots of 'thumbs-up'! New tail pipes and lots of chrome everywhere!  Currently running on the 'Street-legal' Firestone stock-look tires with 16" 8 lug Wheels and Stainless Rings.  SALE INCLUDES A COMPLETE SET OF  $5000.00 worth of 49"  IROK's ON CHROME RIMS - (see pics)  Technically, these tires make the truck frame too 'high' to actually be 'street legal'.  With that said, I have driven short distances with the big tires on without an issue.  Came with the Lift system when I bought it several years ago, but appears to be done right with air suspension and on-board compressor (designed specifically to accomodate the huge tires - just press a button to raise and lower the body on the frame).  The smaller tires essentially make it into a 'driver', much easier to get in-out, and wash etc.

Includes a pair of Mint YOM - (Year of Make) Black CA License Plates with an awesome (custom) sticker display frame on the rear - see pics.  The power assisted sterring radius is 'incredible' turning right (also good turning left, but not as exceptional) - I was told this could be 'matched' if desired, but I have left that alone because it drives and tracks so well, including on the highway.  It has a nice stereo, and very nice interior overall including custom CHROME door panels, ashtray, and glove box.  Solid truck overall and runs very well. Lot's of fun. CHP approved the VIN/title transfer (with street tires on) when I bought it several years ago.HERE IS WHAT IT NEEDS:

1. It's not really critical or even visible, but it needs a "bed floor" - much of the old one is removed already.  Maybe something more innovative than wood? (see pics)

2. It needs a "front-drive shaft" to complete the front drive-train (I bought it like this, but it is very drivable without the front wheel drive line).  I intend to get this done this year if not sold.

3. The passenger side of the windshied has a few "wiper-marks".  I have a complete set of windshield 'stainless' trim to apply upon a future windshield replacement - no rush.

4. It could eventually use a fresh "paint-job" to become the ultimate 'SHOW TRUCK'.  There are some minor areas of corrosion to address - but not bad for its age (see images).

5. It has mostly original guages and interior controls (ie: gas guage, odomoter, speed, heater, etc.) -  which could stand to be updated or improved.  It does have new temp and volts guages.

REASON FOR SELLING:

I am selling it "as-is" and of course without any warranty, but for it's age it is really special and obviously a head turner.  I am selling/trading it to get a stock Jeep Wrangler for my wife.

Please contact me if you want to come see it here in Santa Paula, CA or think you have a trade offer - Thanks, James 805-479-5000.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt

Fri, Oct 31 2014

The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."

Mustang retakes monthly pony car sales crown from Camaro

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Going back to their origins in the Swinging '60s, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro have been fierce rivals for fans' hearts and dollars. Historically, the Ford often led in volume, but Chevy took the muscle car top spot in 2009 upon the Camaro's rebirth. However, with the launch of the latest Blue Oval pony car, the tide is turning back in Ford's favor. November was the first full month of sales for the new 2015 Mustang, and according to TheDetroitBureau.com, the model did spectacularly well. The Blue Oval shifted 8,728 of them, up 62 percent from same month last year, with the automaker proclaiming it the model's best November sales since 2006. Conversely, 4,385 units of the Camaro were delivered, down 13.5 percent year-over-year, meaning its sales were roughly half that of the new-generation Mustang. Ford is understandably happy with the results, and product development director Raj Nair even hinted to TDB that another version of the Mustang might be unveiled at January's North American International Auto Show. Rumor has it that the model will be the even more potent Shelby Mustang GT350R. Despite the Mustang's November success, the Camaro outsells it year to day. So far in 2014, Ford has sold 73,124 Mustangs versus 79,669 examples of the Camaro. With December offering the last chance for an overtake, the Bowtie may yet remain king for this year's sales crown. A new Camaro is peeking over the horizon, as well. It's reportedly moving to the Alpha platform used by the Cadillac ATS, and production could start in late 2015. Prototypes are already testing at the Nurburgring, and camouflaged examples have been spotted weirdly being compared to its '80s forefather.
