Underneath the dust, rust and broken glass is one of the best examples of Chevrolet history that would love to be restored or rodded out.  This Art Deco 1941 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup has been around the block a time or two, but I'm guessing you have never seen one quite like this.  This truck was a rat rod before rat rods were cool.  Just look at the custom front fenders, chicken wire grille and wooden running boards.  This one just speaks for itself.  Please look at the pictures to see this in full detail and don't speculate anything.  If you need more details please ask and I'll do my best to get you the answers you need.  As you can probably guess this truck has been sitting outside for several years.  It is a fairly complete and solid vehicle, but will require a total restoration or used as parts or a rat rod.  Parts are rusted, glass is broken and the multi-colored paint is peeling, but you just can't make patina like that.  The doors have missing parts but do open, as does the windshield.  The hood is not the best, but does operate.  The box came from another truck and is just sitting on the frame.  The engine is stuck, the steering box is locked up and the steering column is broken.  The "mileage" odometer reading is unknown, but is exempt on the title because of the age.  This will roll onto your trailer and I can help with a tractor and loader.  The wheels are from a mid 70's chevy 4WD truck with pretty nice 31x10.5x15 tires.  This has a clear, clean and current Nebraska title as a 1941 Chevrolet Pickup with the model # matching the vin tag.  As you can see in the picture the vin tag is all faded, but the stamped vin  # is intact.  If you are the winning bidder on this auction and you only want the title and vin tag, I will gladly send those to you free of charge and reimburse you $100 from the final bid for the truck.  If you only want parts off this truck, you can gladly come and remove what you want and I will dispose of the rest.  I will continue to store this truck outside in the elements up to 1 year free of charge until you come pick it up.  If I still have it after that year is up and no other arrangements have been made I will consider the truck abandoned and I will resell again.  This truck is selling as is where is with no guarantee.  I will require a $200 deposit via pay pal within 72 hours of auction end, and the remaining amount within 30 days or cash at the time of pickup.  Please plan on picking this up yourself.  I have worked with shippers before and some have been difficult to deal with.  The shipper I would use with no questions asked, is Marc Springer from Snortn Boar Transport.  You may have seen his work on the A&E TV show Shipping Wars.  He shipped my 1940 1 1/2 ton on the first season episode "Bullship"  I have already contacted Marc, and he would be glad to ship for me again.  Who knows, maybe it would make it on TV again.  I would consider delivering this myself within a 200 mile radius of me for $2.00 a loaded mile.  So if it would help for me to get it a little closer to you, it may be a possibility.  My reserve is low on this truck as I feel the title is worth it alone.  But if you were to part and scrap this out there is plenty of $$$ to make.  I do have other parts that may be available to buy depending on when this truck is picked up.  Thanks for looking, and please email me for any questions and or concerns.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

Motor Trend reveals 2016 Chevy Camaro as Car of the Year

Tue, Nov 17 2015

The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro beat some very steep competition to earn the Golden Calipers as Motor Trend's Car of the Year. The magazine praised the sixth generation's fantastic engines, great handling, and lighter platform. "Our 2016 Car of the Year, the Chevrolet Camaro, is one of the finest driving vehicles in the world at any price," editor-in-chief Edward Loh said, "though its price is well within reach of the average consumer." The Camaro conquered some high-performance challengers to take the victory, including the Audi TT, Mazda MX-5 Miata, and Mercedes AMG GT S. It also bested technologically cutting-edge vehicles like the BMW 7 Series and Toyota Mirai. The latest Honda Civic rounded out the competition. To earn the prestigious award, nine judges evaluated the finalists in six categories: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. The Volkswagen Golf won last year. In an engaging story on Motor Trend's website, it explains what a revelation the new coupe is and that they consider the model the best production pony car ever. The piece is well worth a read. Motor Trend also handed out the Person of the Year honor to Subaru of America President and Chief Operating Officer Thomas Doll. It praised him for the Japanese brand's massive success in the US like tripling deliveries since 2007. "By any measure, the business Tom Doll leads is an outstanding success," editor-at-large Angus MacKenzie said. "And he is the person whose unique vision and quiet leadership made it happen."

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
