1969 Chevy Truck Pro Street Custom 454 on 2040-cars
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
|
'69 Chevy C-10, 454, Powerglide, narrowed 9" ford rear end. I'm selling this truck for a friend who does not have an ebay account, but he has to sell his baby for financial reasons. He has owned this truck for 20 years, and has hundreds of hours of work in it. He's a body man and has put many hours into the body work, you will not find many other trucks as straight as this one.
Body and paint: The top has been chopped 3 inches, the windshield has been laid back, the hood has been sectioned 1 inch. Tailgate has been seamlessly welded with a custom rear valence panel. Custom fabricated inner wheel wells and removable panels inside the bed cover the fuel tank and battery (the pictures have one of the panels taken off to show how they're removable). Flush mounted front LED turn signals and LED 3rd brake light. 4 coats of PPG Torch Red, 4 coats of clear, color sanded and buffed. Ghost flames inside the bed. Pictures really don't do the paint justice. Engine: 454, built by Budlong Engines (one of the high end shops here). Comp Cams Thumper Cam, gear drive, oval port heads (781 casting), Performer RPM air gap intake, 750 vacuum secondary holley carb, MSD distributor. About 10:1 compression. Runs on 91 octane pump gas, doesn't overheat, The truck is VERY fast, but not too radical that it's not streetable. Drivetrain: Powerglide, 3500 RPM Hughes converter, narrowed 9" ford rear end with 4:56 gears and traction-lock. Chassis: Frame has been back-halved with an Art Morrison rear subframe, 33x21.5 Mickey Thompson tires and Weld pro star wheels. Front suspension has been lowered with tubular lower control arms, and 2 inch dropped springs, rebuilt with all polyurethane bushings and converted to Disc brakes. Interior: Autometer gauges, Custom upholstery, Rockford-Fosgate amp and 10" sub woofer. All new wiring harness. new weather stripping. Issues: two small chips in the paint, one on the left side of the bed (pictured), and one on the right side of the bed (looks exactly like the one in the picture). One crack in the windshield, about 3" long, on the upper right corner, from when the windshield was installed (pictured) Other than these minor issues the truck is in show condition. Unfortunately the owner does not have time to fix these issues and he needs the truck gone so he is willing to sell it for way less than he has in it. The truck is also for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for looking! |

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
