Up for auction (OR MUSCLE CAR TRADES) is an attention grabbing 1932 Chevrolet Coupe Rat Rod. Let me begin by saying this is not a car for a kid or amateur, it will take some getting familiar with to operate this machine. Also, this is not a RUST FREE show car, it's about as rat as you can get for a rat rod. Its one hell of a build that looks and performs great!

This car is built on a 135" wheelbase and has a 6 " chop on an all steel body on a custom built frame.  This car has no pedals, it is totally controlled through hand controls which frees up space for your feet and legs.  It takes a little getting used to but 10 miles of driving and it's almost second nature.  If you are uncomfortable with this set up it wouldn't take much to convert it back to foot pedals. Also if you think you may be uncomfortable with this set up please don't bid or buy it.    

The drivetrain is a 1970's Chevy C10 250 6 Cylinder engine with a healthy cam. It all has approx. 28,000 miles.  It runs on 6 , YES 6 Synchronized 34mm Mikuni Snowmobile Carbs with water injection ( the bottle of J.D.!!) The transmission is out of a 1980"s CHEVY K30 Turbo 400 transmission (w/passing gear - button built into throttle control) 

Also used on the build is a 53' Mercury front drum brakes,  Chevy S-10 posi spool rear end,  Honda CRX front springs and  4 BRAND NEW TIRES!!!! - 16's in the front on ford spokes, 15's in the rear vacuum brakes -  with front chrome holding tank ( fire extinguisher tank) stops like a semi!!! HEAT!! - heater core from a 740 BMW ALL NEW WIRING - with 6 panel fuse block NEW belts, plugs, cap , rotor, wires, radiator (large aluminum that runs at 160 degrees constantly), thermostat, water pump, flex fan, front and rear shocks, steering stabilizer, fuel tank sending unit, new gauge pack all new switches - headlights are an old lamp pull chain!! It has a functional AM/FM/AUX player in the "glove box"

The car has adjustable timing (black lever on dash) which allows you to advance or retard the timing.  Its currently running well but could use a little fine tuning to run perfectly.  I am very confident in the braking system which is worth nothing, it really stops well.  The red handle on the steering wheel loosens up to allow quick and easy removal of the cut away steering wheel.  The speedo or odometer do not work but all other gauges are functional and the lights do work.

For lighting it has KC daylighters as driving lights, AIRCRAFT L.E.D. indicator lights, turn signals postal jeep front axle with king pins postal jeep steering box postal jeep master cylinder 1940's boat throttle used as gear shifter stainless boat prop shaft from left to right for all linkages interior for all hand controls - brake and throttle with quick release steering wheel THE CAR COMES WITH A BILL OF SALE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE VIN VERIFICATION , which in NY (the toughest state around with DMV ) accepts with no problem to register.  There shouldn't be any issue getting this car titled in any state.

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter

Thu, May 14 2015

Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.

GM to build outgoing Silverado and Sierra until late 2019

Tue, Nov 6 2018

As it has done with previous generations, General Motors is keeping the outgoing versions of its 1500 pickups in production despite the arrival of the all-new 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and 2019 GMC Sierra. The production of the previous, K2 generation models will begin to be wound down gradually, according to Automotive News, starting with crew cabs "early next year," and double and regular cab models following during "the early second half of next year." The old model trucks will continue to be built into "late 2019" based on market demand, GM's spokesperson Kim Carpenter said. The Chevrolet will go by the name Silverado LD, with the GMC Sierra designation still to be announced. Some of the outgoing models are built by sharing the assembly work between two GM plants. Partially finished Silverado and Sierra double cab bodies are shipped from Fort Wayne, Ind., to Oshawa, Ont., where the trucks are completed, including receiving paint. This eases the workload in Fort Wayne, where production of the new T1 generation trucks started in July 2018. In January, the Silao plant in Mexico will take on the duties of building new generation regular cab and crew cab trucks. Carpenter also said that the "Oshawa shuttle," as the shared production is called, has been very successful. As a result, 60,000 more trucks will be built than what the original production forecast initially called for. GM's latest quarterly profits, disclosed last week to be $1 billion, have been far higher than expected and will result in full-year profits far higher than what had been predicted in light of steel tariffs. GM isn't the only truck maker taking a similar multi-generation approach for 2019. Both the outgoing and redesigned Ram 1500 are in production, with the previous generation being dubbed Ram 1500 Classic. Related Video:

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
