General Description
This is a 1949 chevy 3100 3 window cab with a 1974 Camaro, we bought a fully running Camaro to build this truck we used everything possible out of the doner car to get this truck upgraded to power steering, power brakes, disk brakes in front. The truck came from a small town called Cuba in northern New Mexico from an old man on a small property in town he had lost the title and so when I researched it, it was totally out of the system he said it had been parked since the 70s. So the local MVD has no record of it. This is a poor mans truck or poor boy style with the original swamp cooler and jerry can we even have an old aftermarket heater that came with the truck which will also be included. 

RUST 
The trucks main rust issue was in the front cab corners. We decided to leave this truck as it was when we pulled it out of the field but we also wanted to make it fully functional so the outer cab corner skins were left as is but the floor was repaired and is now very solid the truck has its natural surface rust throughout the body also the bed has rust in the rear bed pillar corners behind the taillights.

ENGINE
This was the original engine out of the 74 Camaro numbers matching original two barrel carburetor has very good compression car ran rough when was purchased it, needed new wires and plugs and it ran very strong after some tuning was done then we were able to drive the car with no problem.
Has a HEI distributor new intake, valve cover, and oil pan gaskets as far as the millage on the engine its is unknown.

TRANSMISSION
Equipped with a turbo 350 short tail shaft ran great but was not shifting into 3rd gear so we had it rebuilt  

SUSPENSION
1974 Camaro subframe with disk brakes, power steering, power brakes, and air bags. Rear suspension is also out of the Camaro 10 bolt and leaf springs C-notched with air bags over rear axle. The complete truck came off the frame in order to make the modification more easier and accurate this truck is squared and modified correctly (SEE OUR PREVIOUS BUILDS TOWARDS BOTTOM)  This is not our first build.

AIR RIDE SYSTEM
This is a very simple system consisting of 1 Viair compressor, one 5 gallon tank, 4 AirSlammit dumps that are controlled by two switches in the dash. 1 front up and down and 1 rear up and down. pressure switch is a 140 psi on and 180 off. System operates only when key switch is on

WIRE HARNESS & ELECTRICAL
Everything is powered by the Camaro wire harness the following circuits are operational. Fuel gauge, dash lights, running lights, high beams, taillights, stop lights, turn signals, four way flashers, dome light oil pressure coolant temperature and cigarette lighters. Non working components are windshield wipers speedometer and grille parking lamps

INTERIOR
We also decided to keep the original patina in the interior and just added the door panels and kick panels no head liner. The seat is the rear seat from the Camaro and was modified to fit the original seat frame but sits lower and more comfortable than the original. New carpet with padding underneath 

GLASS 
We have installed a new windshield glass along with new rubber the driver side is not cracked but is old the passanger and rear glass is cracked

HOW DOES IT RIDE?
Breaks have excellent response engine is strong transmission is smooth and can cruise 80 down the highway no problem. The ride can be bumpy or very bouncy if air is not adjusted right. especially since there are no shocks on the truck. She is fast for a two barrel and not as fuel hungry and can still burn rubber.

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. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

Weekly Recap: Lamborghini to build SUV

Sat, May 30 2015

Finally, Lamborghini will build a sport utility vehicle. The Italian supercar maker confirmed this week that it will launch a luxury SUV in 2018. It will be built at Lamborghini's soon-to-expand factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese in Italy, and will double the company's current sales volume. Lamborghini did not announce a name for the vehicle or other details, but noted a concept version, the Urus, was displayed at the Beijing motor show in 2012. It will be sold around the world, but it's expected to be a critical offering in the United States, China, and the Middle East. The automaker projects the SUV will sell about 3,000 units per year, and it will be the third product in Lamborghini's portfolio. It currently sells the Huracan and Aventador supercars. "The introduction of a third model line endorses the stable and sustainable growth of the company and signifies for us the beginning of a new era," Lamborghini chief executive Stephan Winkelmann said in a statement. The project is also a boon for Italy, which will get 500 new jobs in the Emilia Romagna region as Lamborghini's factory will nearly double in size. Ian Fletcher, principal analyst for IHS Automotive, said the SUV will position Lamborghini for future growth. "It could well also bring new customers to the brand [who] may find the dramatic styling of Lamborghini products appealing, but find its typical sports cars restrictive," he said. "If it is a success, the SUV could be a catalyst to Lamborghini broadening its portfolio further." OTHER NEWS & NOTES GM invests in Chevy Camaro factory General Motors is investing $175 million to upgrade its factory in Lansing, MI, to build the 2016 Chevy Camaro. The investment will pay for new tooling and equipment. The improvements include three new paint systems and two new robotic framers. GM will add a second shift at the factory to build the Camaro, resulting in 500 jobs. The automaker had dropped the plant to one shift last year amid slow sales for its products, the Cadillac ATS and CTS. GM is spending $5.4 billion over the next three years to upgrade its US facilities. Last week, GM announced plans to spend $439 million to build a new paint shop for the Chevy Corvette. While the Camaro and Corvette plant improvements are intriguing to enthusiasts, GM also confirmed this week that it is investing $1.2 billion in its Fort Wayne (IN) factory that builds trucks.
