Up for Sale is this one of a kind 2003 Chevrolet SSR in Redline Red with Ebony Leather interior.  It is offered by Bill Buck Chevrolet and I am Ben Lewis, the Pre-Owned Sales Manager.  It was traded in by the original owner on a new Chevrolet Equinox for his wife.  This truck has been his project from day one and the time, thought and money that has gone into this truck probably could not be duplicated for twice the price that we are offering it at!  I am going to do my best to describe what this truck is and am glad to answer your questions via email or phone.  I have several books of documentation including the original window sticker along with manuals and receipts for most of the upgrades including the Supercharger and transmission upgrades.

This SSR started life in Annapolis Maryland.  The previous owner ordered this truck fully loaded with the 1SB option package (heated seats, memory package, homelink transmitters, Bose sound system with CD), carpeted bed with wood trim accents, integrated running boards, bed saddle bags, towing package with trailer hitch, cargo net.  The total price was $46,490 in 2003 dollars and this customer paid well above that for the opportunity to have one of the first available in Red!  He never drove one at the time it was ordered.  When he picked up the truck, he was slightly unimpressed with 300 horsepower 5.3 liter V8 and immediately began drawing up the plans for what you are about to bid on!

Here is what I know has been done but I can tell you that there is probably a lot of little things that had to be completed to make the package work so well.  This truck runs and drives like Chevrolet built it this way!  Everything works including the air conditioning and all electronics.  There are no check engine or warning lights.  Our service department has inspected it and were impressed with the quality of the upgrades.  My best estimate from the receipts and my knowledge of the parts used puts the upgrades in excess of $10,000 without labor cost.  Here are the highlights:

Lowered Suspension (estimated about 1")
Magnuson Intercooled Supercharger (Roots Style)
Dynatech SuperMaxx Exhaust System w/Stainless Long Tube Headers
Comp Cams 525/532 Cam specifically for supercharged application
Phoenix Transmission of Texas / Transmission Upgrade to Original Unit

Upon completion of the upgrades, the truck was taken to a well known speed shop where it was tuned and dyno tested and recorded.  This truck puts 430 horsepower to the ground and 470 lb/torque at the rear wheels with an incredibly flat torque curve (440 lbs at the rear wheels from 2000 RPM  to Redline).  Needless to say, its a blast to drive and very streetable.  Just put the top down, turn on the Bose sound system and enjoy!

I am going to include three videos below.  I will let them speak for themselves.  Please note that I took the video and drove, so I apologize for its shaky quality as the SSR can be a handful!

 


Here are the rules for this auction and they are very simple:  This truck is for sale, and priced to sell!  We are not looking to appraise it so please bid only when you are ready to buy it.  If you need financing, please have it already lined up or call us to be pre-approved.  If you have questions or would like to inspect the vehicle, please email or call me.  I will do my best to accommodate all reasonable requests.  Transportation is the buyer's responsibility.  We are not a shipping company and do not give quotes for those services.  Sales Tax and License Fees are charged per Federal and State Law.  There will be a $399.00 Administration Fee added to the winning bid price to cover the cost of paperwork, lot prep, etc.  If you have questions.....Just Call or Email (we are glad to help). 941-493-5000 blewis@billbuckchevrolet.com.  The last and most important rule is this:  The truck is for sale locally and on our lot.  We reserve the right to end the auction early anytime UNTIL it meets reserve on this auction.  Once this auction is above our Reserve Price, we will only sell it to the high bidder.  NO exceptions.  Its the only fair way to handle this so everyone has a chance to buy.  So if you are serious, bid early and bid what you'll pay or you risk somebody walking on the lot and buying it before you get the chance!

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.

Super Bowl LVII car commercial roundup: Watch them all here

Mon, Feb 13 2023

Fewer automakers than usual spent money advertising during Super Bowl LVII. In total, there were only five traditional ad spots from three big OEMs. A number of car-adjacent ads aired during the Big Game, too, and we’ll bring you those ads in this roundup alongside the more obvious ones. WeÂ’ve compiled all of the automotive-related commercials for you here in this post so you donÂ’t have to go searching for them elsewhere. Read on below to see what aired as the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. Ram's Super Bowl spot offers a cure for 'Premature Electrification' This commercial revealed the new electric Ram Rev pickup, and itÂ’s themed like a prescription ad for an antidote to "Premature Electrification.” A concerned narrator in the Ram spot asks if you're afraid that going electric too soon will mean "you might not be able to last as long as you like," and there's a guy on a pier who's going to need some new equipment if he wants to catch fish. We're also told there are "options being designed to extend range in satisfying ways," so if this truck isn't right for you, you have choices. All the commercial's missing is a silly medical marketing name and six seconds of speed-reading gibberish about side effects like intestinal bleeding and death. Which are two more good things. Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights modern version of 'Electric Boogie' JeepÂ’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The songÂ’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since GriffithsÂ’ original track, and Jeep says the track is available for streaming now. Kia returns to the Super Bowl with the tale of 'Binky Dad' This year, Kia follows the adventure of "Binky Dad" in his quest to fetch his daughter's lost pacifier, which naturally takes him over just about every bit of terrain you might encounter upon leaving the civilized confines of Southern California for the not-so-civilized mountains of ... probably also California. It features the refreshed 2023 Kia Telluride, which probably doesnÂ’t need much advertising to see these days, but Kia went for it with the strong three-row SUV anyway.
