1955 chevrolet short bed step side, bare bones. Starting with the front clip, it is pretty fair but does have its issues. The hood has some damage in the front, and the driver side fender needs a patch panel in the usual lower spot and there are a couple of dents around the head lights. The front of the frame has been modified with a 78' camaro subframe. It has new stock height coil springs, tie rods (the rubbers have dried and cracked). The welding and installation of the frame is really solid work. The radiator support hasn't had brackets made to attach to the frame. Moving back to the cab, I'd say about 85% of body work is done. New cab corners have been installed and rocker panels, however the driver is corner needs to be shaped in the door jam, the door doesn't fit like it should. The steps are original and nut rusted threw but does have some pitting. The floors are solid and bed liner has been sprayed on the bottom. Both ash trays have been welded up. The doors haven't been worked and they have the usual crease in the front and some rust on the bottom. both doors and front clip have been sand blasted and primed. The rear end is a narrowed ford 9" with 3.73 gears and has been rebuilt, I have the drums to them also. The suspension is a Heidts 4-link with the coil over shocks. The wheels are American Racing 15". Mickey Thompson sportsman 2 tires in the back, the front are a small chevy bolt pattern and the backs are the ford bolt pattern. The Bed I haven't done much work to, its basically a bunch of surface rust I haven't seen any rot threw. Both rear fenders are fiberglass so NO DENTS!!! The tailgate is new but a little weathered it was a reproduction tailgate but the more expensive OER one made using original equipment. This truck comes basically as you see in the pics, I've tried to give all the issues I can think but there are probably a few I forgot.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
