This 1949 Chevrolet 3100 is looking for a job. Willing to put in long hours and look good doing it, it can still be used as a truck. On the other hand, these are also some great-driving vehicles, with a comfortable ride and reasonable power in addition to those timeless good looks. Capture the best of both worlds with a hobby vehicle that you can use as Chevrolet intended and still drive it to the local cruise night where it'll draw a crowd. The new "Viper Red" paint job is awe-inspiring, which is perfect. Up front there's a new chrome grille ,and new Bumpers. The body is in Great shape with some dimples on the Left rear panel. The wood bed is stained Red Oak which matches the body perfectly and is preped for weather. Its blue-collar roots are present with pride. The interior is completely redone with "leather look" vinyl and the bench seat will accommodate three. A New AM/FM radio in vintage location and appearance adds to the trucks charm. The steel dashboard is a handsome design and like many trucks of this era, the Heater was optional but this one has one that works. There is a leather wrapped steering wheel and column shift. This model didn't come with turn signels or seat belts, so they aren't there. Its not exactly luxurious, but it's a great place to experience the 40s and 50s. Drive to the drive-in and have a "malt" or just "cruise" the strip. The attention to detail is downright amazing. The original 218 engine runs perfect after a rebuild. The Chevy "Stovebolt Six" under the hood is still doing its job, and if you've ever driven a vehicle with one of these engines, you know they're smooth and torquey. It fires up easily and idles well. Maintenance is simple, and keeping these running is never a chore. The hoses, belts, plugs, wires, starter, Alternator, and fuel pump are new, and it is upgraded to a 12-Volt electrical system. This one rides on a set of new 820-16 blackwalls mounted to the rear and whitewalls in the front with "Baby Moons" hubcaps. This classic truck is brought back to complete working condition with a few perks.

2023 Detroit Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the new reveals and first looks

Wed, Sep 13 2023

The 2023 Detroit Auto Show didn’t play host to a lot of reveals, but on top of the new cars that were revealed there, automakers brought a whole bunch of cars we havenÂ’t seen in person yet. In a show of home strength, all the big reveals came from the hometown Big Three, with Ford, GM and Stellantis playing host to the most important unveilings. We took Huntington Place by storm to capture all of the new cars and sights to see in Detroit, and you can see everything we did in the series of galleries below. Interesting special editions like the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning Platinum Black Edition and the 2024 Chevrolet Camaro CollectorÂ’s Edition found some floor space alongside bigger debuts like the refreshed gasoline-powered F-150 and 2024 Jeep Gladiator with its new interior.

AEV-upgraded GMC Canyon AT4X, Chevy Colorado ZR2 appear in spy photos

Mon, Dec 12 2022

As with the previous generation, it appears the 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 will be getting a special AEV version. Not only that, but its twin, the GMC Canyon AT4X will get one, too. And as these spy photos show, they'll have some additional off-road accessories included, as well as bigger tires. We'll start with the GMC Canyon. The first example of the truck without any camouflage is not quite fully upgraded like the camouflage vehicles. But it has one part not seen on the others: the AEV snorkel. 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 AEV Bison prototype View 13 Photos The two appear to be riding on larger Goodyear Wrangler Terrain MT tires. These look like 35-inch examples -- 2 inches larger than the biggest tires available on the ZR2 and AT4X. They're also mounted on beadlock capable wheels. Besides the bigger tires, both trucks also feature a new bed-mounted spare tire. It's a full-size spare, and unlike past bed-mounts, this one places the tire flush against the cab. The benefit of moving the spare to the bed is departure angle. And while this position looks a little less like how trophy trucks carry their spares, it should provide better cargo space. Rear visibility probably isn't great, though. Generalizing based on what we know about the current ZR2 Bison, the new AEV trucks will probably get unique grilles, steel bumpers, fender flares, a suspension lift and possibly even axle ratio changes. Additional options such as a winch could be offered, too. We expect the trucks will be revealed within the next year, since the base trucks have already been shown, and these are just upgraded versions of those trucks.

Seventies super-salesman challenges new car-sales record

Wed, Feb 21 2018

Some of the fondest memories from my youth were the Sunday afternoons spent walking between rows of new and used cars. This preceded the advent of widely available internet, so the cars didn't sell themselves online: A tentative buyer had to come see the cars in the metal, with old-school salesmen taking well-earned smoke breaks after putting someone behind the wheel of a new Saab 900. All-inclusive subscription services were unheard of. If you open a Guinness records book and look up car salesmen, you'll find Joe Girard. The definitely old-school Detroit salesman regularly sold over 1,000 new cars per year, with a particular high point of 1,425 cars in 1973 guaranteeing him a mention in the Guinness book. To reach that kind of sales figure, you had to be a pretty special salesman, and Girard was. He didn't take breaks unless absolutely necessary, and even his lunch hours were dedicated to selling more cars instead of shooting the breeze with other sales persons. By 1977 he was worn through, having sold over 13,000 cars in his career, and his physique couldn't take it anymore. He's been a motivational speaker since. Now, 44 years later, a Dearborn, Mich., Cadillac and Chevrolet salesman named Ali Reda has reportedly broken Girard's record. The books at Les Stanford Chevrolet Cadillac say Reda sold 1,530 new cars and 52 used cars in 2017, averaging 130 vehicles per month. But after Girard, 89, heard of the sales record, he called his attorney, not letting his record be broken without a fight — or at least an audit. The Dearborn dealer isn't too concerned about Girard's doubts, at least according to Gary Stanford, whose father founded the dealership. "It's very official, trust me," said Stanford to the Detroit Free Press. "Ali is the hardest worker I've ever seen. And if someone doesn't believe the data, well, they're more than welcome to consult with GM. It's all there in black and white." What Girard doesn't get is that Reda was honoring him with the accomplishment. "I read his book, 'How to Sell Anything to Anybody,' and it said it would teach you how to become the best," said Reda, who at age 44 was a newborn when Girard hit his peak. "He's an absolute legend in the industry. Your whole career, you're chasing his name.
