1953 Chevrolet 3100 Hot Rod Pickup 327 V-8 on 2040-cars
Draper, Utah, United States
1953 Chevrolet 3100 Street Rod runs and drives excellent,
very quick. The body is mostly stock with a few
mods, shaved handles and bear jaw latches installed for safety and looks. New glass all the way around and, custom
headliner and seat installed. Custom leather
wrapped steering wheel Stewart Warner and Mallory gauges installed. All of the trim has been chromed for that
cool old street rod look. Custom door
handles inside and door panels very simple but looks great. Polished Stainless steel firewall looks
really sharp sets off the engine. The
rear sheet metal and wood is a new kit from Mar K with new steel rear fenders
as well. The wood is Oak with a dark Walnut
stain and polished stainless steel strips looks excellent when shines off the
bedsides. The roll pan under the
tailgate is custom with louvers and LED 53 Pontiac taillights. Also the custom stainless steel fuel tank had
been relocated under the bed for safety.
The filler neck has been left in the original location and blocked for
old-school looks. The grille is a
reproduction chrome unit that really pops and also has custom LED park/turn
signals. I also have a hood available
that has a peak added but is not finished that goes with the truck, but I feel
the truck looks pretty mean without it. The
engine is a 1965 Corvette block numbers FOII4HH, 3782870 with 2.02 double hump
heads. There have been many
modifications to the engine balanced high compression pistons, roller rockers
all the old school go fast goodies.
Weiand tunnel ram intake with two 650 CFM Carter AFB’s. Sounds very good at the local cruise nights
with the header plugs open. The
transmission is a TCI prepped TH350 with a manual automatic valve body and 3000
stall TCI torque converter. Also there
is a B&M star shifter with slapper setting.
The rear end is a GM 10 bolt that has been rebuilt with new bearings,
new auburn limited slip carrier and new 3:73 Richmond gears. In total the truck only has 79 miles on it
since it has been put together. The truck handles and stops great
with the 67’ Camaro sub-frame with discs up front and drums in the rear. The front end has had all of the bushings and
ball-joints replaced and new coils have been installed as well. This truck is a great driver with plenty of
power to get you into trouble and upset the neighbors if you want to. This truck just needs some TLC and little finishing touches just selling it because other projects have taken priority. |

Just the right Camaro can change your life
Thu, Jan 22 2015Not many people can say that their car directly motivated them into a career, but that's exactly the case for Adam Martin and his 1968 Chevrolet Camaro that he calls Lucy. Martin bought the pony car in primer when he was just 16, and it helped foster his profession in restoring classic cars. Beyond just being a very cool ride for a teenager, every change to Lucy was an opportunity to hone a new automotive skill for Martin. Whether figuring out how to paint a car or building the 454-cubic-inch (7.4-liter) big block V8, the Camaro offered a platform for experimentation. This latest episode of Petrolicious gets personal about the bond between man and machine for this 18-year ongoing project. And even if the story doesn't immediately grab you, Lucy has a great voice and can do a mean burnout.

Motor Trend reveals 2016 Chevy Camaro as Car of the Year
Tue, Nov 17 2015The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro beat some very steep competition to earn the Golden Calipers as Motor Trend's Car of the Year. The magazine praised the sixth generation's fantastic engines, great handling, and lighter platform. "Our 2016 Car of the Year, the Chevrolet Camaro, is one of the finest driving vehicles in the world at any price," editor-in-chief Edward Loh said, "though its price is well within reach of the average consumer." The Camaro conquered some high-performance challengers to take the victory, including the Audi TT, Mazda MX-5 Miata, and Mercedes AMG GT S. It also bested technologically cutting-edge vehicles like the BMW 7 Series and Toyota Mirai. The latest Honda Civic rounded out the competition. To earn the prestigious award, nine judges evaluated the finalists in six categories: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. The Volkswagen Golf won last year. In an engaging story on Motor Trend's website, it explains what a revelation the new coupe is and that they consider the model the best production pony car ever. The piece is well worth a read. Motor Trend also handed out the Person of the Year honor to Subaru of America President and Chief Operating Officer Thomas Doll. It praised him for the Japanese brand's massive success in the US like tripling deliveries since 2007. "By any measure, the business Tom Doll leads is an outstanding success," editor-at-large Angus MacKenzie said. "And he is the person whose unique vision and quiet leadership made it happen."
