1948 Chevy **bare Metal Patina - Ratrod - Rustomod - Hotrod** Truck on 2040-cars
Morrison, Tennessee, United States
|
Up for auction is a *MUST SEE* 1948 CHEVY TRUCK! This running/driving, unique bare metal truck is sure to turn heads! The exterior has been stripped and cleared, and the brand new all chrome grille helps give it that "IN YOUR FACE" attitude! Body does show its 66 years of being an American workhorse, but it only adds to the style and character of the truck, so I chose to leave it as is. I am wanting to be as honest and upfront as I can, so pictures of what some might consider exterior "flaws", are included in the listing. The body has been lowered and is setting on an S-10 frame, with disc brakes and power steering. The bed has been narrowed to fit the chassis, and the wooden plank floor has been raised and notched to clear the custom 1969 beer keg fuel tank. The front floor pans have been replaced, and the transmission tunnel was fabbed up. The side vents were welded up, and the door handles shaved with new Bear Claw latches installed. The engine is a stock 350 with aluminum intake and a new 600 CFM Edelbrock carb. It is cooled with an aluminum radiator and electric fan. The exhaust is handled by Hedman Husler fender well headers, dumping through 2.5" straight pipes. The transmission is a newly rebuilt 350 with Lokar shifter. Brand new (uninstalled) hood hinges are included as well (see pic). The interior of the truck is red with new Shark gauges, new wiring harness, new electric wipers, and new windshields and back glass with new rubber. All lights and gauges work great. Wheels are Weld Drag Star - 15x3.5 front - 15x8 rear, with 28x11.50/15 Mickey Thompson ET Street rear tires. The tires have about 50% tread left on the rear and 80% on front. The truck has that "old school" ratrod look and feel and runs and drives great! If you like getting attention and the "thumbs up" sign when driving down the road, then this is the truck for you!!!! IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU ARE UNSURE OF OR HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT, PLEASE ASK PRIOR TO BIDDING! MORE PICTURES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. TRUCK IS FOR SALE LOCALLY, SO SELLER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY. On Jul-12-14 at 20:05:58 PDT, seller added the following information: As requested, I have uploaded a few more pictures. |

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
