1971 Cheyenne Super on 2040-cars

Cape Neddick, Maine, United States

 Here is a factory 1971 Cheyenne Super not a made up conglomeration of parts. This truck was brought from Arkansas and has never seen snow that I know of. This truck has been outfitted with a brand new factory style Hounds Tooth seat cover and ACC Loop carpet. Carpet underlayment consists of the supplied Jute and the whole floor was covered in a Reflix-it style material. New stainless steel sill plates to finish it off. The door panels have been changed over to the 1972 style. This is an original A/C truck but the A/C is not working. New weather stripping around the Doors and Felts around the Door Windows. I replaced the Windshield Gasket too with the correct style. Everything but the Radio and the A/C work. The radio may I just never tried it. It is the OEM Am radio

The suspension on this truck has been upgraded to KYB Shocks on all four corners. The Body Mounts have all been changed to Poly-Urethane along with the Front and Rear Sway Bar mounts. The Front sway Bar has been changed to a 1.5 and the Rear Bar is a 23 mm from an IROC Z. The front and rear have been dropped using CPP springs 4.0 in the Rear and 3.0 in the Front. The Rear also has a CPP adjustable dropped Panhard Rod. I also installed a Power Trax locker in the rear of this truck, it still has the original 3.08 Rear Gears.

Wheels are a Coys 5 spoke design 15x8 in the front dressed with 255 50 15 and the rear 15x10 dressed with 275 60 15. The tires are the same widths 10.5 but run a different diameter 28 in the rear and 26 in the front. Brakes all re built in the rear from the backing plate out to the drum. This truck is extremely tight with no rattles and goes down the road nice and solid. The suspension is set-up very nice. It rides smooth like you would expect it too not choppy and corners with ease. The cornering is very predictable and easily managed.

Exhaust starts off with Hooker Super Comp long tube headers, dumps into a Pypes Stainless Steel dual exhaust system that exits in the factory locations behind the rear tires.

Most of these updates have been in the last year or driving season for us in Maine.

The engine is a rebuilt 454 its been bored .04 and has an aftermarket Crank kit. Its a  very streetable engine. Rods resized and rings are filed to fit.CL 77 bearings with a Melling M77HV oil pump to complete the bottom end. Keith black..04 over 9.0:1 pistons. Aluminum heads Roller Rockers, Comp Cams adjustable guide plates, Comp Cam's cam custom ground for this truck, Performer RPM intake, and Edelbrock 850 cfm Thunder Series carburetor. Transmission is a rebuilt th350 shift kit with a converter 2100rpm

Paint was done about 15 years ago and still looks good. This is a very dependable truck that I drive to and from work occasionally. about an hour or so each way. It does have a big 4 core radiator and has no overheating issue or bad manners sitting in traffic. I built this truck to drive.

Yes this is a HOT ROD and you will not be disappointed with it. it does behave very nice and I let my 24 year old daughter drive it is that nice to drive and is manageable.

GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
