1986 CHEVY SHORTBED PROJECT PICKUP.
THIS WAS A PICKUP PURCHASED WITH INTENTIONS TO FINISH BUT NEVER GOT AROUND TO IT. IT HAS BEEN STRIPPED DOWN AND FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD IT WAS SODA BLASTED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. ALL BODY WORK HAS BEEN DONE ON IT WITH PANELS WELDED IN NOT FILLED IN. THE ONLY PART LEFT TO CUT OUT AND REPLACE IS THE LEFT REAR QUARTER I BELEIVE AND I THINK THE NEW PANEL IS LAYING IN THE BACK. THE DOORS WERE TAKEN DOWN AND THE HOLES FOR THE HANDLES AND LOCKS HAVE BEEN WELDED OVER AS WELL AS THE GAS FILLER DOOR ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE. IT WAS ORIGINALLY A DUAL TANK AND NOW ONLY HAS A FILLER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. MANY OF THE PARTS ARE LAYING IN THE INSIDE AND IN THE BACK OF THE BED. THERE IS NO ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION IS IN PIECES IN THE BACK AND GOES WITH IT. HAS A BACK GLASS THAT CAME OUT OF IT AS WELL AS THE WING WINDOWS AND THE SIDE GLASS. THERE IS NO WINDSHIELD AS IT WAS NOT SALVAGABLE. THE HOOD WAS ALSO CRUNCHED WHILE IN STORAGE SO THAT WAS JUNKED TOO. THE PASS. FRONT FENDER IS LAYING IN THE BACK WITH MISC. PARTS (FRONT BUMPER, FRONT GRILLE, AND BACK GLASS). TIRES ARE OK WITH THE REAR ONE'S WORN MORE THAN THE FRONT. ALL OF THE TIRES HOLD AIR. WILL NEED TO BE PICKED UP WITH A TRAILER AND THERE WILL BE NO DELIVERY. EMAIL WITH ANY QUESTIONS AND LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY CERTAIN PICTURES YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO TAKE.

Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head
Mon, Dec 29 2014Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
