This truck is a great daily driver completely rebuilt from frame up. Originally built in Los Angeles California plant and now comfortably garaged at my home in Encinitas. This classic stove bolt has never left southern California. The beautiful thing about buying a clean california truck is that there was virtually no rust and the body was clean and straight having never been in an accident. The engine was kept to the original style 6 cylinder but upgraded to a powerful 261 with 858 high compression head. All new Dual Fenton exhaust with new vintage Smittheys and chrome tips, Edelbrock twin air intake with twin rebuilt Rotchester manual choke carbs, chrome air cleaners. All new wiring, upgraded to 12 volt system, electric windshield wipers, New alternator, new radiator, all new chrome, I believe to be the original bed in excellent condition, New shocks, rebuilt brakes and lines, new rubber around glass and doors. Quality sound and heat barrier installed throughout cab, new rubber floor mat as well as extra new carpet kit (not installed). Rebuilt Clutch, upgraded 411 rear end. I could go on listing items as I have replaced, polished, chromed or repaired almost every part and have over $27,500 in receipts over the past two years getting this truck to look and drive like it does. The interior is immaculate with only minor discoloration and cracking on the steering wheel. Everything works, the instrument panel was replaced to original style but upgraded to reflect the correct oil pressure and voltage and reflects the 250 miles from the completion of the restoration. The paint is very clean though has a few imperfections and small chips. The logos on the doors are vinyl and can easily be removed. The paint is a color correct 63 Chevy Surf Green Lacquer though the fenders and bed have a clear poly over. The largest chip is pointed out on the driver side front fender close to the grill. The 4 speed manual transmission is solid and between the engine and new differential will run highway speed of 60mph with no problem. This truck turns heads where ever I go and I have many extra and original parts that can go with it. This truck is for sale locally and may terminate the auction early. Low reserve.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR
Tue, Sep 13 2016AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!
Chevy Crossvolt name kept alive in new trademark application
Fri, Dec 26 2014In April 2011 General Motors submitted a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the word "Crossvolt." In November of this year, the application expired for lack of a statement of use. But in August of this year, GM applied again for the same trademark, leading some to believe that it intends to apply the name to a vehicle. That vehicle could explain the mule in sliced-and-diced Chevrolet Orlando bodywork caught in several spy shots this year, theorized to be some kind of Toyota Prius V or Ford C-Max Hybrid competitor; or it could be a production version of the Chevrolet Volt MP5 concept showed off at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, which was about the same size as the Chevy Orlando. Or it could be none of those things – but the fact that Chevrolet is keeping it current makes us believe it will be... something.
