1953 Chevrolet 3100 5 Window Truck Pickup on 2040-cars
Marion, Ohio, United States
For sale is a 1953 Chevy Truck that I have been working on for qutie a while.
Truck has a 5.3L Chevy motor out of a 2006 truck, a matching 4l60E, and
with only 60,000 on the odometer. Brand new drive shaft built by Drive Line 1 out of Columbus, Ohio. Harness was bought from and tuned by
LSX4U.com out of Maine with the electronic throttle. Has a brand new
Tanks Inc. 16 gallon tank and sending unit, with a fuel pump to handle up to 600 hp, and
the supporting fuel regulator/filter from the corvettes. All fuel lines
and trans cooler line were ran with 6 A.N. line. 18x8 front and 18x9.5
rears Boss 338 Wheels, wrapped in Nitto Neo Gen tires. 10 bolt Non-Posi
Rear end with drum brakes. Front big 11.5" Disc brake kit with drilled
and slotted rotors. Mustang II front suspension from a mid 70's mustang.
New Champion 4 core radiator with 16 " fan and a built in trans cooler. Chassis mounted power brake
booster and master cylinder. 32" trans mount Lokar Shifter. Chrome tilt Column with
turn and hazards built in. Grant steering wheel. Manual steering rack
with borgenson joints and stainless steering shaft. New glass all the
way around except for in the doors. ( Do not have glass for those yet).
Frame has been POR-15 painted. Has a completely re-built seat with a
cream colored seat cover. Installed a full Ridetech air ride system.
This is not a cheap put together system, it was purchased directly from
Ridetech. The system has the dual compressors and large tank upgrade
along with the red billet valves. The mustang II Air-Ride set up is from
Ridetech also. The only thing not Ridetech is the rear bags. I used
larger Slam Specialties bags for a better ride. The truck still needs
Gauges, carpeted, doors put together, door glass bought, bed wood bought
and installed, and could use an alignment. I'm getting very busy and someone
else could finish this truck the way they would want too saving the
labor charges of me doing it. Ive got 100's of hours in fabrication and
install between the motor and air-ride. Asking 21,500 as is or will
finish with complete interior for 26,000. Thanks for looking.

On Jun-17-14 at 10:52:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I wanted the ground clearance so i didn't put the running boards on the ground. But if you would like too i have a step notch kit from gambino customs to go with it. As for the doors not being together, the ones that came with it were shot. I bought bare doors from kansas and they are 100% rust free. Just need new glass and everything else will need to be transferred over from original doors. Have decent door panels with steel frames to go along, new billet window crank, billet door opener, and billet door sill plates. All of those are polished. |

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Junkyard Gem: 1985 Chevrolet Sprint
Thu, May 21 2020For in the 1985 model year, General Motors began selling Chevrolet-badged Suzuki Cultus hatchbacks in California. Sales of the cheap three-cylinder econobox in the rest of North America followed soon after (with the Canadian version known as the Pontiac Firefly), and did pretty well considering the crash in gasoline prices during the middle 1980s. Starting in 1988, the facelifted Sprint became the Geo (and, later on, Chevrolet) Metro. Here's one of the very first Cultuses sold on our shores, found in a San Francisco Bay Area car graveyard. Amazingly, the primitive rear-wheel-drive Chevrolet Chevette remained available all the way through 1987, competing with the thriftier front-wheel-drive Sprint in the same showrooms. For 1988, Pontiac started selling a rebadged Daewoo LeMans, so the Sprint/Metro never lacked for intra-corporate competition. Inside, you'll find the same stuff most mid-1980s Japanese econoboxes got: tough cloth upholstery and long-wearing hard plastics. Suzuki quality in 1985 wasn't quite up to Honda or Toyota levels, but you weren't paying Honda or Toyota prices for the Sprint. MSRP on this car started at $4,949, or about $12,000 in 2020 dollars. The cheapest possible 1985 Chevette cost $5,340, while a new no-frills Ford Escort would set you back $5,620. Subaru, however, could have put you in a punitively unappointed base-model Leone hatchback for just 40 bucks more than the Sprint that year. I think I'd have sprung the extra for a $5,348 Toyota Tercel, a $5,195 Mazda GLC, or— best cheap-commuter deal of all that year— the $5,399 Honda Civic 1300 hatchback. I was 19 years old and driving a Competition Orange 1968 Mercury Cyclone that year, and I recall feeling pity for Chevy Sprint drivers, new-car smell or not. Still, these weren't bad cars for the price, though a Sprint with an automatic transmission was a real character-builder. Got three cylinders and uses 'em all! 48 horsepower from this hemi-headed SOHC 1-liter. The Turbo Sprint — yes, such a car existed — had a howling 70 horsepower. The hood-latch release is a rectangular button that resembles a badge. 1985 Chevy Sprint Commercial The highest-mileage, lowest-priced car you can buy. 1985 holden barina commercial The Australian-market version was the Holden Barina, and the TV ads featured the Road Runner. 1983 SUZUKI CULTUS Ad In its homeland, this car got screaming guitars and a drive through New York City for its TV commercials.
GM to squeeze out more production capacity for midsize trucks
Tue, May 26 2015General Motors was predicting a strong showing for the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon before they debuted, and demand among dealers for the midsize trucks even exceeded company's expectations. The positive situation has left GM with a problem, though: finding ways to increase capacity for the pickups at the Wentzville Assembly plant in Missiouri. With a third shift already running, GM has continued to look for ways to build just a few more of the trucks at the plant. The company has plans to hire as many as 1,000 more workers for the Saturday and Sunday shifts to construct an additional 2,000 pickups a month, according to unnamed insiders at the factory speaking to Automotive News. The little adjustments even extend to getting rid of an unpaid break to add 18 minute of assembly time over the course of a day, which equals about 3,500 more vehicles a year. All of this effort comes because the trucks are in such high demand. According to GM's figures, the company has delivered a combined 35,720 units of the Colorado and Canyon from January through April 2015, and the Chevy was the fastest-selling truck in the US for the previous three months. In May, it spent an average of just 12 days in showrooms before being snapped up. And even better for the company, 43 percent of these buyers came from other brands. According to Automotive News, the most popular trade-ins have included the Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, and Dodge Dakota. Related Video:
