Are you man enough to make something out of this damn truck?
After a few years of throwing blood, sweat, money, and tears at this seafoam beast I'm tapping out. Bought locally from the son of the original owner 3 years ago in pretty near stock condition(Holley carb on Edelbrock intake, and a giant aluminum radiator). I dove head first into creating the baddest hotrod truck a man could want. The front suspension was removed to the frame and completely replaced minus the control arms and coils(which received a haircut). The front drums lost out to a disc brake kit that included a 2" drop spindle. The power steering is new as well, the hoses are original as they are in great shape, but new pump, box and hardware. KYB Gas a just shocks control all the new goodness. The rear has a c-notch I crafted to follow the frame rails, but I used square tubing 1/4" thick to add strength back in. The axle was flipped and a few leaves removed to get the stance right, new shocks in back as well. What with the ride and handling at a new level it was necessary to haul ass and burn rubber at will. Not being an engine builder I bought a fine 383 right here from ebay, advertised at 450hp and 475lbft.
So, with such a great parts list why have I stopped? Well, that great motor ended up falling on it's face with cylinders 3 and 4 mustering only 65psi, while everyone else pushed out 170-180. I had the bright idea to pull it and rebuild it, but realized that's not my speed. So it's ready to be pulled, everything is bagged and tagged efficiently. And I want some cash for my welding business.
Some basics I skipped
TH400 trans with cooler
10 bolt without posi
Air condition cab, units removed firewall patched
Aftermarket wiring harness
Rust on cab, near back window
New weatherstripping on doors, rest to be included
It might make a man out of you or it could break your spirit. Bid if you've got the brass balls or ovaries I so obviously am missing.
I'll answer any questions at 512-413-8465. My name is Steve. And I don't know how much you're gonna pay to win this no reserve auction, but I want $200 within 24hrs, cause I don't know you.

Nissan Leaf sells 3,186 in best month ever as Chevy moves 2,511 Volts
Wed, Sep 3 2014The end of summer seems to inspire people to go out and buy a lot of plug-in vehicles. Last year, for example, the Chevy Volt had its best month ever in August, with 3,351 sales. This year, the Nissan Leaf is going up to the winner's podium, setting its own best-ever record with 3,186 units sold. This beats the Leaf's previous record by 69 vehicles. This beats the Leaf's previous record of 3,117 set in May 2014 by 69 vehicles and is up 31.7 percent from August 2013. Nissan is once again quick to remind us that the popular EV's record sales streak has now been extended to 18 months in a row. This record is simply noting that the current month, in this case August, had the highest sales that that month has ever seen in the US. Over all, US Leaf sales are up 34.1 percent so far this year. In a prepared statement, Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said that the Leaf is selling well on both coasts, including cities like Raleigh, Boston and Washington, DC. "It's what we call the 'cul-de-sac phenomenon,' where once someone in a community buys a Leaf, then friends, family, co-workers and neighbors see the benefits of this fun-to-drive electric vehicle firsthand and are sold on the idea of going electric," he said. The Volt also had a good month - its best of 2014 by almost 500 sales – but the 2,511 Volt sales still represent a drop of 25.1 percent from the excellent sales the Volt had this time last year. In fact, August 2014 represents the Volt's best sales month since, well, August 2013. Apparently, there's just something about the end of summer. As always, we are working on our in-depth round-up of green car sales across the country and will have that up soon.
2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
