This is a chance to own a solid, and almost complete, "Art Deco" '46 Chevy pickup. I just purchased this truck and as luck would have it three days later I stumbled across one that was already finished, as much as I'd like to have both I don't have the space or extra funds for both so I'm going to let this go to finance the other.
The truck has great patina for someone wanting a rat rod, which was my intentions, or it would be a good candidate for restoration. The pictures pretty much tell the condition, there is a small amount of rust in the bottom of the doors as usual on these trucks and a couple other small places but overall it's very solid. The fenders are all usable with just a little work, the cab is solid over the windshield, the cab corners and rocker panels are nice, the bedsides are surprisingly straight. The front bed panel and the rear cross piece are both rough. The tailgate is a little rough but I think it's useable, there is no bed floor so the bed is not solid on the frame. The previous owner removed the front clip and disassembled a several pieces of the sheet metal around the radiator area, etc. Therefore the hood is not attached and the front clip isn't bolted solid, all of the pieces that were removed are in the floor of the truck. The only thing I see that is missing is the actual floorboard piece that bolts in which is available aftermarket and the drivers door panel as well as both door glasses. He also removed the components from inside the drivers door but they appear to be all there. The front bumper is in the bed but it has a bend in the center, the braces are there and in good condition. It has the original 216 engine and 4 speed transmission, I haven't tried to turn the engine over but I'd guess that it's stuck.

There is NO TITLE for the truck, it should not be a problem obtaining one from a title service but that will be the buyers responsibility.

These are the trucks that everyone is wanting, they are becoming very hard to find, especially in this condition.

Please ask any questions BEFORE bidding. The truck is located in Mansfield Missouri and can be inspected at any time if you wish. Shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer and the truck will have to be picked up at my location.

Upon completion of the auction a $500 down payment is due within 24 hours by PayPal and the balance is due within seven calendar days by cash or certified check only.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

Cadillac Celestiq, Lyriq, Hummer, other future GM electric cars: Here's everything we saw at ‘EV Day’

Wed, Mar 4 2020

WARREN, Mich. — Today, General Motors held an “EV Day” event at its Warren, Michigan, campus to present its new “Ultium” battery technology, modular electric vehicle architecture and soon-to-come electric vehicles. Unfortunately, we were forbidden from bringing cameras into the event, so while we canÂ’t show you what we saw, we can tell you more about it. While we saw the previously teased Cadillac EV (which we now know to be called the Lyriq) and the GMC Hummer pickup teased during the Super Bowl, there were a number of other future cars at the event, which GM President Mark Reuss assured us are all real vehicles in the works. The biggest surprise came at the end of the event, though, in the Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan, which Reuss described as a future flagship that would be hand-built “very locally.” It had been hiding under a dark sheet all morning, with the front and rear illuminated Cadillac emblems shining from underneath. When the wraps came off, we saw a long, white, four-seat fastback sedan. The 23-inch wheels were pushed out to the very corners of the car, giving it what appeared to be a very long wheelbase. The model on the stage had no side mirrors or visible door handles. The grille mirrored that of the Lyriq crossover next to it, with integrated lighting in lieu of the usual mesh or slats youÂ’d see in an internal combustion car. The entire roof, all the way until it tapered to the tail of the vehicle, was tinted glass. In back, vertical tail lighting ran down the C-pillar before turning rearward across the top of the trunk. Inside, everything below the beltline of the windows — essentially all but the headrests and top portion of the steering wheel, was hidden from view. Behind the Celestiq, a large digital display showed a rendering of its interior. The dash consists of a pillar-to-pillar curved LED display serving as both instrument panel and infotainment system. Protruding forward between the front seats was another touchscreen that appeared to house some more controls, with open area, probably for storage, below it. The rear seats had the same sort of touchscreen between them. Built into the back of the front seats were a pair of rear-seat entertainment screens, much like we saw in the Lyriq. The door panels blended wood, metal and animated lighting to give character and a sense of opulence. GM interior design manager Tristan Murphy was on hand to tell us a bit more about the Celestiq.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
