1946 Chevy Pickup Streetrod v8 Auto This frame off restored 1946 Chevy Pickup sits on a custom square tube frame, front to back, designed to make it light and fast as well as sit low. Powered by a completely rebuilt/bored out, FUEL EFFICIENT, computer controlled 5.0 TBI GM V8 305 SBC (with horses more like a 350 now after the rebuild, with proper balancer even) it sends 200+ horsepower to the rear wheels with a silky smooth shifting 700r4 4 speed automatic + overdrive transmission. At 50MPH, the RPMs run at 1500, so that should give you an idea of the high speed gearing this truck offers. It is a great cruiser,very very quick also, as can be seen in Video #1, below (Also note that the videos will play in 360p clarity by default, small frame, but you can select at bottom right of video window if you want to see it in full screen, and up to 1080p HD clarity!) It will smoke most compact cars on the road, and has no problems jumping on the freeway nice and fast, and stops on a dime with feather light foot pedal action due to having four wheel power disk brakes. Once key is turned to on, and brake is depressed, it roars to life at the push of an illuminated low voltage modern push start button, mounted just below the stereo, in the vertical section of the center console. The headlight switch, in parklight mode, not only activates running lights and licence plate illumination in back, but also turns on a set of small LED lights on the front/top of grill guard, which can be spun around even to shine forward, but set by default backward to illuminate the chrome grill. These little lights go off once headlights are turned on. The truck has left and right blinkers for safety, in front, and in back, so there is no problem telling other drivers of your intentions. The column offers tilt, so once inside you can adjust to a comfortable ride height to see all gauges clearly. This truck has an amazing stereo, consisting of 450w amp, pushing a 10" Sony sub, all installed under the seat, and dual 6x9s mounted on either side of center console. There is a separate kill switch for the sub and amp, so if you prefer no loud pounding noise when the radio is playing, you can simply shut it all off separate of the stereo itself. When you open the door on this truck, the foot well areas illuminate, so getting inside if it's dark isn't a guess on where your feet should go, and it is fitted with some very bright map lights inside the rear view mirror, which shine down, so they don't blind you whatsoever when driving in the dark. The windshield fits perfectly with no air gaps around the edges which is nice because I've seen in alot of these trucks with original windows, they just don't fit right. Window crank also works great, so if you want to crank out the front window, one can. Not only does this truck offer GPS navigation through the stereo head unit, it also has hands free phone, iPod hookup, mp3 audio, memory card, internal hard drive so you can upload your favorite playlist via usb cable, and a backup camera system which enables you to see what's going on behind the truck as you back up. One feature it also has, which I've not seen on many hot rods, is a switch on dash which if engaged, turns on a nice bright LED light inside the engine bay on upper firewall. Great for inspecting engine, or just showing it at night! LED lights pull very minimal power off the battery. The speedometer and tach are electric, however the speedometer sending unit is satellite actuated, so it lags about one second behind reality, but works accurately otherwise, and represents every movement you make, just about one second behind real time. There is a new 12v cigarette lighter outlet also on dash, so you can have your iPod/iPhone or any other phone charging as you go. And let's not mention that it is fitted with a nice cup holder, so you can take a drink along with you without fear of spilling it everywhere. The seats are fully adjustable, the bases move foreword and back, and the backs also can be adjusted to get the lean you want, and the truck has new two point seat belts for safety, L and R. Here is a more complete list of details on what this truck includes: 1. Rebuilt SBC 305 TBI engine, dressed out in new billet finned oil pan, billed finned valve covers, billet finned air intake and billet breathers 2. Reprogramed computer ECU installed, to eliminate VATS Column lockout program and new All in One wiring harness for engine swap installed. 3. 700r4 4 speed trans w overdrive and balanced drive line installed with new front/back u joints and clasp kits.

I didn't have a parking brake lever installed, due to the truck having park function which holds it down even on a decent slope, but it would be easy to add parking lever, since all parking cables to it, are included with the truck. 22.

Also, the fan is wired to keep running, even when you shut off the vehicle and exit, until the temps lower a bit. 26. A pair of new #42441 Super 40 Series Flowmasters with new mid length pipes, make this truck sound mean, not too loud inside, but plenty scary sounding from the outside. 27. Mustang II front suspension, with new adjustable QA-1 Aluma Matic coil over shocks with new Carerra 300lb springs on each side 28. New set of QA-1 Aluma Matic adjustable coil over shocks in back 29.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger
Mon, Apr 13 2015The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

Nissan Leaf has 2nd-best sales month ever, Chevy Volt does a 2013 repeat [UPDATE]
Tue, Apr 1 2014UPDATE: The official press release says that "Volt [sales were] up 7 percent," but Randy Fox let AutoblogGreen know that this is simply due to a change in the fleet/retail mix between March 2013 and 2014. The actual number sold was exactly the same in the two months. A month ago, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said he expected to see the Leaf's sales momentum continue into March. It wasn't a big leap, since January and February were slow sales months in 2013 (around 640 each) before a big climb to 2,200 in March. In 2014, the first two months of the year were better (around 1,300 each) but Nissan can still be happy that the Leaf just had the best March ever and its second-highest sales month ever, with 2,507 sold. That's a 12.1 percent increase from 2013 and Perry said in a statement to AutoblogGreen that one reason is all of the buyers who are becoming evangelists for the vehicle. "We've also seen an increase in showroom traffic as we enhanced our marketing presence in March," he said. Nissan pointed to cities like Washington, DC, Raleigh-Durham, NC and urban areas in Texas as strong Leaf markets last month. On the Chevy Volt front, January and February were also slow months in 2014, down roughly half from the 2,000-ish the plug-in hybrid was selling at the end of 2013. For 2014, sales were up slightly from the first two months of the year and Chevy spokesman Randy Fox told AutoblogGreen that the March number was "pretty flat, year-over-year." Even with that warning, we were surprised to see the total come in at 1,478. Why's that? Because the total for March 2013 was ... 1,478. So, yeah, that's pretty steady even if there were 26 selling days in March period this year compared to 27 last year. As always, our more complete report of last month's green car sales will be coming soon. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet GM Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales
2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists
Sat, Oct 24 2015Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
