This flat-out awesome 1968 Chevy C10 pickup is exactly what you need for this summer's cruise season. With a snarling 383 cubic inch stroker motor, a gorgeous bright red paint job, and just the right stance, this is the truck we all wish we could own. Still willing to work hard, but ready to play at a moment's notice, you can think of it as a Camaro with a bed.
The bright red paint means this truck is far from subtle, especially with those bulging rear fenders. During the build, they added a cowl induction hood, custom LED side-marker lights, and some special LED taillights with integral back-up lamps, so nobody will mistake it for someone else's truck. It's also a super-straight southern truck with great sheetmetal and no signs of heavy bodywork anywhere, and the shiny paint only emphasizes how clean this truck really is. Panel gaps are good and everything lines up well, indicative of careful workmanship and excellent care. The chrome CHEVROLET lettering on the tailgate is a new twist on a traditional look that looks perfect here, and the stainless factory grille gives it a semi-custom look that works really well. The front and rear bumpers have been re-chromed, adding just the right amount of brightwork to the otherwise monochromatic truck, and the wood floor in the bed is simply gorgeous.
The gray interior has been upgraded from its working-class roots with a pair of buckets cribbed from a late model. Vastly more comfortable than the original bench, the seats look like they belong in there, especially when matched to the gray carpets and custom door panels. The original gauges, including an ultra-rare tachometer in the center, are among the best features of these trucks and they look great. An AM/FM/cassette stereo head unit has been neatly fitted into the original radio's slot in the dash, right above the aftermarket A/C unit that lives underneath. In between the seats you'll find a slick B&M shifter for the TH350 3-speed automatic transmission and a thick leather-wrapped Grant GT steering wheel makes this truck feel more like a muscle car than a pickup truck. As icing on the cake, note that all the glass save for the vent windows is new.
That muscle car feel is certainly enhanced by the thumping 383 cubic inch stroker motor that lives under the hood. Renowned for making big block torque in a small block package, the show-quality 383 is fed by an Edelbrock carburetor atop a chrome Edelbrock intake, a great combination that delivers more than impressive performance. It's also dressed with chrome valve covers and an open-element air cleaner, all framed by shiny chrome inner fenders that must have cost a fortune. 3.08 gears out back make for an easy, relaxed cruiser on the highway, although it still launches hard with a 2500 RPM stall converter in the TCI Street Fighter transmission. The suspension has been lowered just enough to give it the right rake, and the soundtrack from the custom stainless steel exhaust system is worth the price of admission all by itself. Fat 255/65/16 radials have been fitted to American Racing aluminum rims, and the combination properly fills those big wheelwells.
A truck that's ready to work or play, with the moves of a muscle car. What could be better?

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
