1950 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup. Truck is a one-owner Texas truck with original title in-hand. Fresh motor and automatic
transmission. Motor and transmission are out of a 1987 C-10 Pickup. 305 motor was professionally rebuilt, bored 30
over, mild cam, and rebuilt heads. Also a freshly rebuilt Turbo 350 transmission with shift kit. On top of the
motor is a 650cfm Holley Carb and nicely polished Chevrolet Bowtie Valve Covers. Top has been chopped 5 inches.
Tilt steering. Brand new glass (which also had to be custom cut) the whole way around. 12v electric harness
conversion, new radiator and electric fan. The front clip of the truck is from a 1978 Mustang II and rear-end from
a 1986 Iroc-Z which gives the truck the lowered stance and advantages of front disc brakes and power steering. New
front grill, bumper, dash gauges, etc. H2 Hummer front bucket seats. Truck is 90% complete and while it's been
driven on the road several times over short distances, it needs fine tuning before it could be a daily driver. In
addition to the small stuff such as mirrors, interior door panels, headliner, etc. it's literally a newly built
truck and will need the steering aligned, transmission kick down cable installed, transmission cooling lines
installed (I have new ones that come with it), dash components installed (ash tray, glove box, etc. - I have the
originals, but you may want to get new ones), the bed of the truck could use some attention. While the wood is
nearly new, it wasn't properly installed and is bowing. I took some specific pictures of the wood bed so please
have a look. I washed the truck right before the pictures, so please note that while the wood appears finished,
it's only been stained (as it's wet in the pictures).
It's literally taken us seven years to finally get the truck to the point it is today and while we'd like to finish
it off, we simply have too many other priorities. The truck really needs someone to spend the time to properly
finely tune it to their liking. The hard part is done. As things sit now, the truck paint is new, but does have
some runs in it. I'd say it's at a 7 out of 10. I was told by the gentlemen that was painting it that it needed a
wet sand to knock off the runs (though not many). There's also some places on the body (around the cab and on the
hood - again, pictured) where there's some cracks in the paint. Though rough in spots, our plan was to patina the
truck which would build off its current character and really pull the entire truck together (not to mention add
value). The truck has been in three photo shoots, the first of which is in a published pinup girl magazine (a copy
comes with the sale). While the truck runs and drives, I think the starter is currently out as it won't turnover
(and battery is nearly new). I've been on international travel so haven't been able to look at it. With the sale of
the truck comes original title and original owner title sign-off, bill of sale from myself, a load of pictures from
the frame up restomod (I'll put them on a USB for you), electronic and printed copy of magazine publication, all
receipts I can locate, and nearly everything needed to complete the project (new windshield wipers, door handles,
etc.). Rare opportunity for a one owner truck. The truck is priced more than fairly. With a good patina and finish
off, the truck will make a great daily driver. Having it sit in the driveway has almost become a pain in that we're
often approached by individuals wanting to use it for a wedding, maternity, art, etc. photo shoots. Lots of
opportunity, just don't have the time and other priorities are pressing.

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery
Tue, Oct 28 2014Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 – marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." – Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings – the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera – but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

GM wants to have 10 plug-in models in China in five years
Sun, Apr 24 2016Last we checked, General Motors was selling all of three plug-in vehicle models in its home country of the US, and is prepared to make the Chevrolet Bolt EV available on these shores later this year. So it's notable that the automaker is hatching plans to have at least 10 plug-in variants for sale in China within the next five years, according to Hybrid Cars. Which plug-ins are coming remains a mystery. GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. The strategy makes sense, as China is now the world's largest car market, and accounts for about a third of GM's annual revenue. The automaker, which operates in China under the SAIC-GM and SAIC-GM-Wuling joint ventures, sells cars there under the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and Boujun badges, and has been doing so for the better part of two decades. Most recently, GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. What we do know is that GM is building its Cadillac CT6 Plug-in Hybrid in China, with distribution to be split between China and the US. That model, which is scheduled to start sales by the end of the year, is being built overseas because of a combination of Chinese government support for new-energy vehicle technology through incentives and the fact that battery-pack maker LG Chem makes most of its cells in nearby South Korea. The plug-ins are part of a broader plan by General Motors to either introduce or substantially tweak about 60 models by the end of the decade. With such new models, GM looks to boost unit sales by as much as five percent a year for the next few years. As for the other nine plug-in models slated for China by 2021, the company is mum. GM spokesman Dan Flores declined to comment to AutoblogGreen.
