Finished in Forrest Green, this '48 Chevrolet has been lovingly restored to original specifications with a few updates. The wiring system and fuse box have been updated throughout. The paint, chrome, and driveline are in great shape. This is a truck that can be driven and enjoyed. It was restored about 5 years ago and shows well today. Tens of Thousands were invested in the restoration effort. Be sure to play our video of this antique Chevrolet in action. Feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions.

This heavy-duty 1-ton truck is a pleasure to drive. The suspension is ready for what you throw at it. Be sure to play our video of this great old truck in action.

The flat bed rests atop the heavy-duty dually axle.

The attractive 5-Window Cab is in great shape. The glass and seals have been replaced. The fresh air cowl vent is still in place. The Forrest Green paint shows well throughout with only a few flaws. The paint and body are in exceptional condition.

Chevrolet's Advanced Series Pickup Trucks debuted in late 1947 and were produced until 1955. They were touted as a bigger, stronger, and sleeker design.

The front end displays the prominent grille & hood. The bumpers and grille show very well. Turn signals are mounted on the fenders.

Under the hood is the thriftmaster 6 cylinder. This powerplant runs out good and is paired with a 4-speed manual shift transmission. The charging system has been converted to 12-volt. Further inspection will reveal original sheetmetal throughout the firewall, inner fenders and core support.

The interior keeps true to tradition, its spartan at best, but it does have a working heater & factory gauges. The 4-speed standard transmission shifts through the gears as it should. The steering wheel of choice is the great old stock one.

The vinyl bench seat is in great shape.

The dash is clean and detailed, refinished in green with the factory gauges intact and brightwork showing well throughout.

The chassis underbody is very solid and in great shape. This includes the flooring, cab corners, suspension and framework throughout.

All of the tires were replaced with these heavy-duty radials during the restoration work.

Enjoy our remaining photos and again feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions.

Note the paint cracking seen above, this is the worst paint flaw on the truck. It cracked right along the seam, the body is smooth and solid underneath.

The door weatherstrip was replaced and the door metal is in excellent condition left and right.

Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson

Tue, Sep 25 2018

Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy Â— will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.

Next-gen GMC Sierra spied with diesel power

Tue, Sep 5 2017

The next generation of GM trucks is arriving soon, and we're expecting a huge leap forward over the current lineup. The Chevy Silverado and the GMC SIerra sell extremely well, but haven't done much to move the segment forward in a long time. The Ford F-150 has an all-aluminum body and turbocharged V6 power. The Ram 1500 gained a diesel and coil spring suspension. These spy shots show that diesel may be in the cards for GM. Some quick shots and copious use of flash show what is most likely a tank for diesel exhaust fluid and a diesel particulate filter, both necessary equipment for any modern diesel. It's unclear what form factor that engine will come in, though GM has a number of engines to choose from, including the 2.8-liter inline four that's found in the Colorado and Canyon, though that may be a little light duty for the Silverado and Sierra. Other rumors surrounding the trucks suggest a move to an aluminum cab while retaining a steel bed. That seems like a reasonable move for GM, even if the company was attempting to shame Ford for its move to aluminum a few years ago. Look for more news as early as the Detroit Auto Show in January.
