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.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).

Chevy up to old EVs-equal-range-anxiety tricks in new Volt Olympics ad

Fri, Feb 14 2014

General Motors is at it again with a new Chevrolet Volt TV commercial. Viewers of the Winter Olymics (at least in some markets) recently saw a TV ad in between the skating and the skiing that made no mention of the environmental benefits or freedom from the power of Big Oil that electric vehicles provide. No, this one was based on pure survival instinct. In the video, a father is driving down a highway, perhaps through the Mojave Desert. His young son is sitting in the Volt's backseat and asks what happens when the EV's battery runs out. "We'll have to cross that burning desert with snakes and cactus until we make it back to civilization," the dad tells his son as they pass the skeleton of a fallen bull. The fine print makes it clear that the actual maximum range is 342 miles. But there is hope. The father tells his son, with a beaming smile on his face, that the gas generator has kicked in and they're going to make it through the desert. As they wend their way to the horizon, a voice over says that Volt drivers who charge up regularly are making it 900 miles between fill ups. The fine print makes it clear that the actual official maximum range before you need to either plug in or fill up is 342 miles. This theme that emphasized range anxiety has been utilized by GM since the extended range Volt was launched in late 2010, despite the fact that Chevrolet now offers an all-electric vehicle in the Spark EV. Volt fans are praising the commercial, called The New Freedom, on the GM-Volt forum and you can see for yourself below. This content is hosted by a third party.
