Here is a 1954 Chevy truck project that has been sitting under a local farmers hay shed for the past seven years. The PO drove the truck for a while with the original 235 but then had a Camaro front clip and rearend installed. He ordered a truck-load of new parts for it but lost interest and never touched it again.  The truck has new floorboards and needs no body work except for sanding minor surface rust from sitting all these years. The wood bed was replaced with a sheet of metal and is in very good condition. The bed sides and top look as straight as new and the tailgate appears to be original with not a single dent. The truck supposedly belonged to an elderly couple about 20 miles from my home and I was told that it was seldom driven. The SC title shows 12,705 and is stamped "actual mileage. The dash is all original and still has the factory radio and gauges with no dings, extra holes or dents. The seat is missing but the seat frame is excellent. Here is a list of the new parts, still in cartons from Brothers Trucks. wiper blades, snap-in 9.5",  black door panels, door panel screw set, door panel steel frames, outside door handles, interior door handles, interior window handles w/washers, black 2 pc. headliner with retainer and screw set, green side window glass, left & rt., green vent glass left & rt., window channel set, vent window seal set with rivets & setting tool, cab windlace rubber, mirror set-ribbed chrome, mirror arms w/screws & gaskets, inside rear view mirror, new hood emblems, pair black sunvisors, new green tinted windshield, new left & right side running boards, lower cab seals. This may not be a complete list of the new parts as I have not looked through all the boxes. One invoice shows cost of $755.66 not including the new windshield, back glass, running boards or the sunvisors. The running boards and windshield would be approx another $800. with shipping costs. The hood latch panel and radiator are in the back of the truck and appear to be in excellent condition. The radiator support is in place under the hood.  The PO kept a record of expenses which includes parts of about  $1600, body shop labor $2675, front clip and rear end with labor $2100. This truck is very solid and ready to be taken to the next level. It is for sale locally and this auction may end at any time. High bidder must deposit $500. into my paypal account within 48 hours of end of auction. Balance of payment must be made in cash at time truck is picked up. Thanks for looking and bidding. I have a '53 Chevy truck hot rod and dont need two.  Note: also included, just found in boxes:new accel, clutch & brake pedal pads, heater duct hoses, firewall insulation pad- $99., pad clip set, left & right sunvisor brackets, pair new black armrests, rubber floor mat-$129.  Also included are new tinted glasses for the doors and both lower door access panels.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
