HERE IS A 1955 CHEVROLET SHORT BED PICKUP READY FOR A HOT ROD RESTORATION. THE TRUCK DOES NOT HAVE AN ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION ALSO THERE IS NO TITLE. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK AWHILE BACK AND REALIZE I HAVE SO MANY OTHER PROJECTS THAT I SHOULDN'T KEEP THIS. SO I WILL SOMEONE ELSE HAVE THE PLEASURE OF BUILDING THEIR DREAM TRUCK.
THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN OFF THE ROAD SINCE 1999. YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE CUSTOM STUFF THE PREVIOUS OWNER DID BACK IN THE 80'S LIKE THE TUBE GRILL, CUSTOM TAILGATE, FRENCHED IN ANTENNA, FRENCHED IN GAS TANK NECK , VELOUR DOOR PANELS, DROP DOWN HEADLINER. REALLY JUST SOME OLD SCHOOL STYLING.
IT IS A GOOD FOUNDATION TO BUILD OFF OF. IT HAS BEEN SUB FRAMED WITH A CAMARO FRONT CLIP AND REAR END. ALSO IT HAS A TILT STEERING COLUMN. IT HAS RUST IN THE TYPICAL PLACES THAT THESE TRUCKS GET RUST. LOOKS LIKE THE FRONT FENDERS HAD SOME RUST DOWN LOW, THEY HAVE BEEN REPAIRED WITH PATCH PANELS. THE CAB CORNERS AND REAR BED FENDERS. A LITTLE RUST IN THE FLOOR. SOMEONE PUT A SINGLE SEAT IN THE TRUCK AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE. BASICALLY WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT I HAVE TO THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK DOES HAVE 5 VINTAGE CRAGER MAG WHEELS. WINDSHIELD HAS SOME CHIPS BUT NO CRACKS ALL OTHER GLASS IS GOOD. LIKE I SAID IT IS A GOOD PROJECT. AT ONE POINT IT LOOKS TO HAVE HAD A TONNEAU COVER ON THE BED AND SOME ONE BOLTED IN SOME STEEL TO SUPPORT THAT. I WILL REMOVE THAT METAL YOU SEE GOING ACROSS THE TOP OF THE BED BY SIMPLY UNBOLTING IT.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
