Up for auction a rare GMC 1/2 ton pick up truck. I believe in driving the trucks I restore so I built this truck with this in mind. This truck was built using a Chevy S10 frame and has the 4.3 Vortech engine with a 5 speed manual transmission. All the sheet metal bed, cab, fenders, etc.. except the front bed panel (which i replaced) are original. The truck has 15" rally wheels with 3" beauty rings and original late 60s era derby hub caps. The cab inside floor and under the cab and under the fenders have been painted with P.O.R.15. The cab and bed were epoxied primed. And the fenders were painted with Z Chrome rust defender before painting. The truck is painted in a firethorn red gold metallic flake. The paint job is not perfect but is nice and the truck does turn heads. I tried to keep the truck as original looking as possible but also keeping comfort in mind. The cowl vent works and the windshield cranks open. There is the original style headlight switch. I used a S10 instrument cluster but also used the original style instrument cluster bezel. The seats are black leather power seats the diver seat being a 8 position power seat. The steering column is a S10 column and the blinkers, and high low beam are controlled by the blinker arm. The windshield wipers are single speed and controlled by a toggle switch in the dash. The interior light is also controlled by a toggle switch on the dash. The driver and passenger door glass are original to the truck. the windshield and back glas have been replaced. All the handles except the window crank handle are original to the truck. The steering wheel is a custom grant 13.5 inch wheel. All the rubber seals have been replaced. The bed has oak boards that me and my dad planned and finished from rough cut oak slats my neighbor cut in his saw mill. The bed strips and angles are polished stainless steel. the bed chains are also stainless steel as are the bed bolts The brakes on the truck has been replaced and the truck drives and stops great. I used the original S10 fuel tank and wiring harness. The truck is a lot of fun to drive and is a real head turner everyone loves to see it coming down the road and folks will keep you hemmed up at the store or gas pump wanting to look at the truck. My wife uplaoded a video of the truck click on the link to watch the truck running . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3IUCwkislg&feature=youtu.be If you have 0 feed back contact me before placing a bid or it will be cancelled In Alabama vehicles older then 1976 are not required to have a title and are only issued a registration.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
Nissan Leaf sales double Chevy Volt to close out winning 2014
Mon, Jan 5 2015To close out the year, sales of the two most-popular plug-in vehicles in the US kept going in the direction that they had been all year. The Chevy Volt dropped and the Nissan Leaf had another record month. Sound familiar? The Volt sold 1,490 units in December, a year-to-year drop of 37.7 percent. For all of 2014, Volt sales were down 18.6 percent to just 18,805 (from 23,094 in 2013). On the Nissan side of the ledger, the Leaf sold 3,102 units, up 22.7 percent from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. For the year, Nissan sold 30,200 Leafs, up 33.6 percent from the 22,610 sold in 2013. A few other things to note: For every month in 2014, the Leaf sold more than it did for the same month in 2013. For the Volt, this was only true for three months (April, May and July). Funnily enough, the Volt sold exactly 1,478 units in both March 2013 and 2014. The Volt's 2014 total was lower than both 2013 and 2012, while the Leaf had its best year ever. There were three months in 2014 when people bought at least twice as many Leafs than bought a Volt (September, November, December). The Leaf outsold the Volt every month in 2014. The closest gap was 215 units, in February. The biggest was 1,612, in December. As you've most likely seen, GM is still busy teasing the new Volt, which will make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. We'll have a more in-depth green car sales post up soon. <iframe embedded="true" "="" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oIuH75vaSHaaplD4x6gLsYjSsiN4oGmez1T63eaYdhY/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false" height="430"> Nissan celebrates 30,000 leaf sales in 2014, best year ever for sales of any plug-in vehicle NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 5, 2015) – Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, shattered yet another sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year. "Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan," said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure. "From the beginning our vision was to bring electric vehicles to the mass market in a practical and fun-to-drive package, which is what makes Nissan LEAF the best-selling electric car in the world." Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
