1991 Custom Chevy Pick Up w/ Earnhardt "Intimidator" Graphics. This is a very cool little truck that has the mean look of a pro street cruiser, with the fuel economy you'd expect from a 5 spd stick w/ overdrive and  a Vortec V6. This half ton, full size, short wheelbase truck has a bunch of custom features like a wide body /dually flare fendered box , cowl induction hood, and a rear rolled pan w/ dual exhaust cut outs. It has a lowering kit  that gives it a great stance with fat 335 /R45/15 rear rubber riding on new custom 10" wide chrome rallye wheels. It has a beautiful custom black paint job that is accented with bright orange striping and graphics. The interior has been updated with custom grey tweed upholstery including a raised Chevy logo on the headliner. The cab features a sliding rear window and the bed has a sprayed in liner. This truck was built to be a fun cruise night/ show truck and it really gets the looks. Everyone thinks it has a 454 or LS motor and they grin when they see the Vortec  6. It would be an easy swap in if someone had a spare engine and wanted to back up the look with real horsepower. Body is extremely solid and the paint is about 2 yrs. old.


Overall, it is sharp, very clean truck that has had a bunch of money invested in it. It really looks baaad and it generates thumbs up every time I drive it. It is a great toy truck that actually is pretty fuel efficient.

What does it need? The rear tires are not bald, they are expensive BF Goodrich Pro Comp Drag Radials . Great look but not very practical. So if you were going to drive it everyday, I'd put some regular treaded tires on it. There is a slight power steering leak that I haven't found  the source of....not bad, but a few drops after it sits a while. The engine idle seems a bit high and I haven't figured out why. I suspect a vacuum leak of some kind but I don't know much about these engines. So it needs some tuning attention. It drives down the road just fine without any clutch or trans issues. Although the odometer shows 107K miles, I do not know the actual mileage . The engine appears to have been rebuilt somewhere in its past as the block was painted orange.

Reserve is low ...but I am not interested in any games. Contact me if you have any questions or want additional photos...I have a bunch. You can email me through ebay or call me direct at 248-252-4223 . Truck is located in Troy, Michigan  just off of I-75. Bid only if you really want to buy and have the cash. Truck doesn't move until certified funds are in my hands. I am retired and can help arrange delivery or pick up by your carrier.

One of the world's largest muscle car museums is auctioning off its cars

Mon, Jan 11 2021

Rick Treworgy's Muscle Car City is one of the biggest collections of high-performance American cars in the world. With over 200 cars of mostly GM makes, it's a mecca for fans of the golden age of Detroit iron. Unfortunately, the museum will be shutting its doors for good on Jan. 17 and auctioning off most of its assets with no reserve. The collection is, to put it bluntly, astounding. Advertised as a combined 65,000-plus horsepower, it occupies a 60,000-square-foot retail space in Punta Gorda, Fla., in a former Walmart store. It make sense when you learn that founder Rick Treworgy made his fortune in the commercial real estate business. As a hobby, he began to amass a truly jaw-dropping collection of muscle cars, filling out a collection that often has every year of a particular model represented, or a grouping of the rarest and highest-performance option packages of that year or model. Often, Treworgy bought placeholders while scouring the country for even rarer versions. It helps that Muscle Car City also houses a showroom where unwanted cars are sold, as well as its own speed shop that stocks plenty of parts. There's even a '50s-style diner called Stingray's Bar and Grill. According to a 2014 episode of Car Crazy, Treworgy has 80 Corvettes alone, more than the actual Corvette Museum. Among them are 20 models from 1967, one of Treworgy's favorites. The rest span the decades from 1954 (he once had a '53 but sold it) to a recently acquired 2020 C8, which, according to The Drive, has only 300 miles on the odometer. You like Impalas? There are models of every year from 1958 to 1969. El Caminos? He's got 'em from 1964 to 1972. Novas? Every year from 1963 to 1970 is represented. Most are the more desirable examples of each breed, with four-speed transmissions, the biggest blocks, and unicorn option packages like a factory 1965 Z16 SS396 Chevelle, one of 200 that were ordered off-menu at Chevy dealerships. And don't even get us started on the Camaros, which include not one, but two COPO 1969s. Treworgy even owns the only known surviving example of a 1936 Chevrolet Phaeton, of which only seven were built. On top of it all, many of these cars are concours quality and have won awards at prestigious car shows. While it's sad to see a collection like this broken up, Treworgy told The Drive that he'd been planning to retire next year anyway. However, the COVID-19 pandemic sped up those plans, greatly reducing the number of visitors to his museum.

Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition

Sat, Dec 13 2014

To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
