Of course, the larger the sale, the larger your cut (I have an ad on Mautofied where the price is unspecified...email me for this link).

This will ensure we are on the same page about it's level of modifications and how to proceed in a deal.

 

Introducing Schizophrenia, an extreme attention getter that has generated excitement at shows all over the East Coast! At first sight, the multi-color paint job and theme are enough to command interest. Within seconds, an incredible seven-stage dancing bed extends 12 feet while spinning before your very eyes! Nearly hypnotized by its dramatic oscillation, you watch as the bed cover splits into 4 sections to reveal a flamethrower that projects 15 foot columns of fire! Add to this scene: balloons, theatrical sparks, a concussion grenade plus colored smoke bombs and you start to picture what an amazing show this real life transformer can give an audience. Over the past 18 years, creative evolution has turned this Chevy S-10 into a mechanical monster on wheels!
My creation is not limited to a particular genre and has been featured in the following environments: car show, parade, monster truck event, air show and art exhibit. Additionally, it has great niche marketing potential. Using my specially designed brackets, banner advertisements can be placed on top of the bed itself and used to draw customers for a featured business. People remember things that are different especially when combined with action! This fact would serve a sponsoring company through product awareness while creating revenue for its owner.

Here are a few specs:
Creator: Jamie Kelley
Theme: Schizophrenia!
Vehicle: 89 Chevorlet S-10
City/State: Asheville, North Carolina
Engine: Chromed out 350 small block
Transmission: Automatic with chrome knuckle shifter
Interior: Materials (tweed, crushed velvet and aluminum diamond plate) / Colors (red,blue,black and silver). A ragtop covers the cab and extends down its back.
Doors: Custom built side mount gullwings, shaved handles with door poppers.
Hydraulic Setup: Completely independent suspension and seven stage spinning /splitting bed! The spin itself has a pneumatically controlled stop. Main parts list: ten modified Hi-LOW pumps, 2 Superwinch motors, Delta dumps, 13 cylinders (various sizes), eight Super-Crank group 31 batteries. 22 solenoids, 23 switches & a ground disconnect. 
Tires: 225/50 R-15 BF Goodrich whitewalls
Rims: 15X8 Roadster wires with gold fluted pans and gold claw spinners (drivers side), 15X8 Alba Inertias (passenger side)
Paint: Base color (Alsa chrome), entire truck was given a marble effect (Royal Blue for the driver's side & Candy Apple Red for the passenger's side)
Graphics: Red and blue glitter flake, ?2 Face on hood & a graphic crack down the center of its theme. Various designs down the sides. A spiral on the bed split.
Stereo: Eclipse cd player, Rockford Fosgate mids and tweets, an epicenter, Sound Dynamic 15's & a Hi-Fonics Genesis amp
Pyrotechnics: A custom built remote control flamethrower (capable of shooting a column of fire 12-15 ft), theatrical gerbs (shoots a jet of sparks 20 ft. X 20 sec. from each corner of the bed), a concussion bomb (extremely loud effect simulates explosion) & smoke bombs (to build crowd anticipation)

In 2007, my creation was appraised by AAG for $90,000 (will send upon request). As of September 2013, the project is for sale at much less than the cost to build it. I would consider some trading, however the trade items must be something that I actually need. Because I built this creation, I understand and would expect to share all relating info to train the buyer. The only reason I am willing to part with it is a need to fund other business related projects.
The truck is in good condition and was designed with maximum structural integrity. Reinforcements are a premium and everything is backed up by failsafe engineering (these include both mechanical and electrical devices). A custom made heavy duty trailer is part of an "acceptable" cash deal. The trailer is open with hydraulic surge brakes, folding ramps, extra tire and hold down points specific to the truck. Plus, multiple extra parts (battery chargers, extra pistons, extra pump head, switches, pyro equipment, etc) will be added. The buyer would be responsible for shipping to their location. Video action + recordings of various components can be found on my youtube page: WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/TRANSFORMERPROMO

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
