You are looking at a very very nice 1953 Chevy Pickup. Fully restored and beautiful. This truck get compliments everywhere you go! The truck has been sub-framed with a 1979 Trans-am, it has a 350ci 5.7L Chevy Crate motor in it with a T-400 Transmission. It is geared for the highway, she cruises at 70 mph wonderfully! The truck sits on an Air-Ride air bag suspension system on all 4 corners. One compressor and two tanks for the front and the rear. Pressure guages are mounted in the dash. The switch controller is cable mounted and comes through the seat. (see pics) It has power brakes with discs in the front. Power steering. Power windows. Dolphin Gauges in the dash. 20" Boss wheels, grey in the center with polished lip. Wheels are staggered with Michelin Pilot Sport tires. 255 in the front and 275 in the rear. All the door handles and chains for tailgate and badges have been shaved. It has custom stained glass corner windows but I have the clear windows to include in the sale. New wood in the bed, with chrome trim pieces. Power wipers and windshield washing fluid. The battery is in the floor board under a cover and some dynomat and carpet, flips up and has a master kill switch, like in a boat.
The restoration is 3-4 years old, it has done about 2,200 miles since completion. The truck runs and drives amazing. Always starts right up. Stays cool even when its hot out, the temp gauge stays solid at 180 degrees. Air ride is great on the highway. The truck looks amazing! There are a couple small cracks in the paint. One on the hood and then on the bed rails. I included pictures. Its hard to see even in person on the bed rails. The framework is very well done!
*The passenger door is popped in the low angle rear quarter shot. You can tell in the other pics that it closes tightly.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
