1950 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup. Truck is a one-owner Texas truck with original title in-hand. Fresh motor and automatic
transmission. Motor and transmission are out of a 1987 C-10 Pickup. 305 motor was professionally rebuilt, bored 30
over, mild cam, and rebuilt heads. Also a freshly rebuilt Turbo 350 transmission with shift kit. On top of the
motor is a 650cfm Holley Carb and nicely polished Chevrolet Bowtie Valve Covers. Top has been chopped 5 inches.
Tilt steering. Brand new glass (which also had to be custom cut) the whole way around. 12v electric harness
conversion, new radiator and electric fan. The front clip of the truck is from a 1978 Mustang II and rear-end from
a 1986 Iroc-Z which gives the truck the lowered stance and advantages of front disc brakes and power steering. New
front grill, bumper, dash gauges, etc. H2 Hummer front bucket seats. Truck is 90% complete and while it's been
driven on the road several times over short distances, it needs fine tuning before it could be a daily driver. In
addition to the small stuff such as mirrors, interior door panels, headliner, etc. it's literally a newly built
truck and will need the steering aligned, transmission kick down cable installed, transmission cooling lines
installed (I have new ones that come with it), dash components installed (ash tray, glove box, etc. - I have the
originals, but you may want to get new ones), the bed of the truck could use some attention. While the wood is
nearly new, it wasn't properly installed and is bowing. I took some specific pictures of the wood bed so please
have a look. I washed the truck right before the pictures, so please note that while the wood appears finished,
it's only been stained (as it's wet in the pictures).
It's literally taken us seven years to finally get the truck to the point it is today and while we'd like to finish
it off, we simply have too many other priorities. The truck really needs someone to spend the time to properly
finely tune it to their liking. The hard part is done. As things sit now, the truck paint is new, but does have
some runs in it. I'd say it's at a 7 out of 10. I was told by the gentlemen that was painting it that it needed a
wet sand to knock off the runs (though not many). There's also some places on the body (around the cab and on the
hood - again, pictured) where there's some cracks in the paint. Though rough in spots, our plan was to patina the
truck which would build off its current character and really pull the entire truck together (not to mention add
value). The truck has been in three photo shoots, the first of which is in a published pinup girl magazine (a copy
comes with the sale). While the truck runs and drives, I think the starter is currently out as it won't turnover
(and battery is nearly new). I've been on international travel so haven't been able to look at it. With the sale of
the truck comes original title and original owner title sign-off, bill of sale from myself, a load of pictures from
the frame up restomod (I'll put them on a USB for you), electronic and printed copy of magazine publication, all
receipts I can locate, and nearly everything needed to complete the project (new windshield wipers, door handles,
etc.). Rare opportunity for a one owner truck. The truck is priced more than fairly. With a good patina and finish
off, the truck will make a great daily driver. Having it sit in the driveway has almost become a pain in that we're
often approached by individuals wanting to use it for a wedding, maternity, art, etc. photo shoots. Lots of
opportunity, just don't have the time and other priorities are pressing.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

Deep discounts — $12K, $13K, $16K — are fueling a pickup price war

Mon, Jun 4 2018

Heavy discounts of up to $16,000 per vehicle are fueling a "truck war" among full-size pickups sold in the United States by the Detroit Three, a Reuters analysis shows. Strong U.S. sales this year of the highly profitable big trucks have helped offset lagging passenger car sales. But it is not clear how much of the truck demand is linked directly to ample factory incentives and dealer discounts, or how far sales might decline without those subsidies. A Reuters survey of Ford, General Motors Co's Chevrolet and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles's Ram truck dealers across the United States indicates stores are offering deep discounts the country's bestselling full-size pickup trucks. "The walls are not crashing down on full-size trucks," said Sam Fiorani, vice president of global vehicle forecasting at AutoForecast Solutions in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania. Detroit-based automakers want to keep cranking out their high-margin trucks, he added, and "giving up a little of the profit is the cheapest way to do it." Stores are offering discounts of up to $12,000 on the 2018 Ford F-150, which remains the best-selling vehicle in the country, recording more than 80,000 sales in May. Discounts run up to $13,000 on the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado and as high as $16,000 on the Ram 1500. Average transaction prices for full-size pick-ups range from around $42,000 to $45,000, industry analysts and automakers say. All three companies are spending furiously - GM and Fiat Chrysler to help sell off carryover 2018 trucks to prepare for redesigned 2019 models, and Ford to sustain its long-held sales crown. A supplier fire that temporarily shut down production of the F-150 last month "changed the game," said Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting at LMC Automotive in Troy, Michigan said. The supply halt nudged Ford's crosstown rivals "to ratchet up incentives on the current models to go after weakness at Ford," he said. Deals advertised on the companies' official websites range from rebates and low-interest loans to ultra-cheap lease rates, but they are not telling the whole story. Ford, for instance, advertises a $2,000 rebate and a $500 financing credit on sales of certain F-150 models. But James Collins Ford in Louisville, Kentucky, is offering discounts of up to $12,215 on the 2018 F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4. The price cuts are even steeper at a number of GM and Fiat Chrysler dealers. Quirk Chevrolet is selling the 2018 Silverado 1500 Double Cab at $13,000 off sticker.
