I have for sale a 1949 Chevrolet 3100 series pickup truck. This truck is an older build but runs like a bat out of hell!! It has a small block chevy engine with a 6/71 blower on it with two carbs. 18 inch rear Mickey Thompson tires. I don't know a whole lot about the engine other than it is super fast. I have another 49 truck with a SBC 427 dynoed at 610 hp and this truck will run circles around it. My plan was to pull this engine and put it in my other truck, I will never do it as time just doesn't permit. So I have decided to sell it to get more room in my garage. Which by the way it has been stored inside with climate control since I've had it. I found a little info from where I bought it and will list that. I did put two new holley carbs on it last month, changed the gear from a 4:88 to a 3:73 gm rearend. The body is decent, only a little rust in common places but not through, best I can tell. This truck is set up to run with a roll cage and race seats, 5 point harness and much more. MSD everywhere, plus it has a wet sump kit on it. Disc brakes all the way around too. It is street legal and I do have tags and insurance on it and drive it occasionally. Not an everyday driver but nice to cruise around with. Has a ton of good equipment on it, it's just an older build. I don't notice any leaks on it at all. It could use a little tuning here and there but it will drive right now. This truck mostly just sits in the garage along with my other one. I am selling as is-where is. This is what was listed when I bought it, I believe it is more than a 350 as it will snatch your neck back with just a little pat of the gas!!!

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
