1959 Chevy short wide bed big back window with chop top.I am listing this truck for a good friend of mine. He started building this truck in 2009. He spent 2 1/2 years building this truck. If you was to pay a shop to build this same truck you would spend around a $100,000.00 to $125,000.00 . The only thing he didnt have done on this truck was put Heat and A/C on it as he was only doing car shows with the truck and wanted a clean look under the hood with a smooth firewall. You can add vintage heat and a/c for not allot of money or time. The truck has had less than 1500 miles put on it since built. The only reason the truck is for sale is due to some health issues and he is no longer able to show the truck.

The Body of the truck was a nice clean almost rust free truck when he started on it. The top is chopped 4 inches in the back and 5 inches in the front. All custom made glass with over $4000.00 spent on glass.Custom battery box in bed. The side trim was removed and did some custom work as you see in the pics. There is 100's of hours spent in black sanding a prepping this truck for paint not to mention the hours of blocking and sanding for the show buff on the paint. The truck is way over the top . Very nice does not even come close to describing the apperance of this truck. There was over 200 hours spent on the dash and interior paint on the truck. He planned on keeping this truck and spared no expense. Has remote poppers for the doors and has a saftey release in case you lose power.

The interior of the truck has late model leather seats withe the driver side power and heated , no carpet , new headliner . Nice kenwood radio. Autometer guages with billet aluminum cluster. Gas gas does not work, needs looked at. There is a couple small spots on interior , one on top of passenger seat and the other on driver door panel where it shuts in jamb. These are the only flaw I seen. I have pictures of both.

The Frame and running gear was built by another person and then purchased as a complete rolling unit.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum. For more on the what to expect out of GM's new SUVs, click on the C/D link below.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
