This 1970 step side underwent a frame off restoration 4 years ago. The builder was a gentleman in Georgia that built the truck for himself and spared no expense in doing so. He truly went all out on this build. A year and a half after building it he passed away and the truck sat for 2 years. It only has a little over 5000 miles on it since it was built. He put almost everything on this truck new. After purchasing it from his nephew I had the fluids changed and had the carb cleaned to be sure everything was good.
The truck is powered by a crate motor from GM Performance Parts. It is a 383 stroker with aluminum heads for 425 horsepower!! That is hooked to a 700r4, which was also bought from GM Performance Parts. It is set up perfectly. It shifts firm from first to second, then the other shifts are nice and smooth. It is running a positive traction rear end. I am not sure of the gear, but I would guess it to be a 3.55 or 3.42. It runs and drives awesome! Took it on a 9 hour trip and it performed great.
The interior has been all redone as well. The custom seat is a 40/20/40 split bench. The center part has a compartment under the seat and the rear folds down to give you 2 cupholders and an arm rest. The carpet is in excellent shape as is the door panels and the headliner. All of the gauges have been replaced with chevy bowtie gauges. All of them work perfect except the fuel gauge. It may have a ground issue. It works sometimes and doesn’t sometimes. It has a Lokar floor shifter as well as an IDIDIT chrome and tilt column. The Vintage Air AC unit works through the factory controls and blows cold. The kick panels are Custom Autosound with Pioneer 6.5” speakers built in. The only issue with the interior is the glove box door. The paint is peeling on the door only.
The exterior is in great shape. The body is straight and the paint is slick. All of the glass is in excellent shape. It has new new rear fenders. The marker lights are shaved. The gas tank has been moved to under the bed. The bed has all new wood and strips and shows perfectly. The wheels are a brand new set of Boss 338 with 17’s in the front and 18’s in the rear. They are rolling on brand new Nitto tires. It has LED tail lights. The panel just under the tailgate is about a 2” panel. That panel has 2 small places where the paint peeled after the truck was together, with the color what it is you have to look for it to find it. This is the only problem area on the paint. There is absolutely no rust in this truck!!
The underside is as clean as the top side. Again there is no rust on the underisde either. The rockers, cab corners, and floor braces are all perfect.
Under the hood is super clean. There is a lot of chrome accesories. There is a double electric fan setup that works off of a thermostat. There is a new 2 speed wiper motor. There is also new 18 circuit wire harness.
The truck is being sold on an open and clear Georgia title. It is being sold as is. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text 843-457-7564 or email at BionicABs@aol.com

Car and Driver reveals spy shots of mid-engine 2017 Corvette
Thu, Jan 8 2015Some news in the car world is perennial, and some is perennially wrong. Typically news about some upcoming mid-engined Chevy Corvette has fallen into the latter category, with rumors never yet generating a road car. This time could very well be different. Car and Driver has some exclusive photographs of what would appear to be a Corvette test mule with a mid-mounted engine. The car in question might look like a Holden SSV ute that's undergone some indelicate modification, but C/D editor Don Sherman assures that the bones of a C8 'Vette live within that crude bodywork. Sherman points to the closeness of the cabin to the front axle as clue number one of this car's mid-engine attitude, as well as the powertrain-sized space between the back of the seats and the rear axle. The roof and glasshouse are all clearly plucked from the current C7, and the gas tank filler positioned on the B-pillar is another huge clue. The buff book estimates that the mule points to a timeline for sale, even. Testing on this level could mean a mid-engined C8 ready for sale in as few as 20 months, or for the 2017 model year. Click over to Car and Driver to have a close look at this important set of spy photographs, as well as a rendering of what a finished C8 might ultimately look like
Recharge Wrap-Up: LAPD gets Zero MMX, Chevy's new inverter, Hyundai Tucson's new powertrains
Wed, Jul 16 2014Some police in Los Angeles will be riding Zero MMX electric motorcycles on duty. The LAPD is adding the fully electric police/military all-terrain bikes to its patrol fleet. According to Officer Steve Carbajal of the department's off-road unit, "It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are." The electric bikes, with their lack of noise and a headlight the rider can turn off, also have the benefit of stealth, giving the officers what Carbajal calls "an added tactical advantage." The MMX also has swappable batteries, is designed for quick ignition and has power reserve capabilities so the rider won't be caught with a dead battery while chasing down a perp. Read more at Ride Apart. Remember when it seemed like we'd never run out of oil, and giving your buddy five bucks for gas was actually a worthwhile gesture? Drivers of classic cars in Detroit were able to fill up their tanks at gas prices corresponding to their model year, thanks to a promotion by Hagerty Insurance for National Collector Car Appreciation Day on July 11. That meant prices from 21 to 90 cents a gallon, as the cars that showed up ranged from the years 1929 to 1989. That's about as affordable as charging your EV. Head over to Autoweek for more details and some photos from the event. The next-generation Chevrolet Volt will likely benefit from a new inverter being developed by General Motors. GM is about two-thirds of the way through the development of the new inverter, which should be ready in January 2016. The inverter, which has a peak output of 55 kilowatts a continuous output of 33 kilowatts, will be adaptable for use in other GM vehicles. Chevrolet is working to reduce the Volt's production costs by $10,000 per vehicle, which should make it more affordable, and the new inverter could help reach that goal should it make its way into the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. Hyundai is likely planning some interesting powertrain changes for the 2016 Tucson, says Green Car Reports. Plug-in hybrid? Maybe. Diesel? Probably not. "We are covering the waterfront on all alternative fuel strategies, from standard hybrid, to plug-in, battery-electric, and fuel cell," says Hyundai's US Chief Dave Zuchowski.
