1955 Chevy 3100 SHORT BED BIG WINDOW DELUXE CAB!!
VERY RARE STAINLESS STEEL TRIM ON OUTSIDE OF CAB!

You found it, the barn find you have been looking for!  This is a ONE owner truck since it was bought new in Wildomar, CA.  The original owner died in 1970 while in the beginning process of a restoration and installing a V8, he had removed the original engine and trans and was in the process of looking for a motor when he passed away, the truck has less than 67k original miles.  His son transferred the truck into his name in June of 1970 (look at the pics of the title) and had it stored in a sealed container on the family property in Wildomar.  Sometime in the 90's when they sold the property the truck was delivered to his home in Burbank, CA where it sat in his garage until 3/24/14 when I pulled it out.

It is completely original and rust free (except for front bottom of cab both sides as shown in pics) with a clean solid frame and floors.  The dash is in excellent condition and uncut.  The rear cab corners were professionally changed out as seen in the pics before the owner died, they did an amazing job.  All the rain gutters are clean and rust free as are the window seals.  The truck seems to have one re-paint in that strange greenish gold color you see now, the original color from what I can tell seems to be red.  All the glass is excellent.

This truck has the VERY RARE deluxe cab with the stainless steel trim on the outside of the cab.  The trim is all there and in excellent condition as can be seen in the pics.  You can not find these trucks with the trim option much less with all the trim in this amazing condition.  The original bench seat needs to be rebuilt but is all there and complete as seen in the pics.  The original instrument cluster showing the original mileage is in perfect working order and fantastic condition.  The truck also has all the original hood latch components and original radiator with support bar.

Please feel free to call me anytime with questions.  
Thanks for looking and good luck!

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip

Wed, Jan 21 2015

There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.

Recharge Wrap-up: EVs poll well in Portland, Tesla seeks office space

Tue, Aug 5 2014

In a poll of drivers in Portland, more than 80 percent said they would be driving an EV in the next 10 years if they weren't already. The poll was small and not scientific, with just 218 votes cast, but it does reflect a slice of a certain population with changing attitudes toward electric mobility, and 80 percent is an impressive figure. Additionally, 43 percent of respondents planned to have an EV in the next five years, and only 18 percent said they prefer gasoline-powered vehicles. With EVs in many ways repeating the adoption process that hybrids went through a decade ago, the five- or ten-year timeframe for more widespread use seems only natural. Read more at the Portland Business Journal. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee parks like an idiot, or rather, his security detail does. His Chevrolet Volt has been ticketed for parking six times since he took office. Granted, those street-sweeping signs are tough to keep track of, but his car has been photographed blocking at a bus stop while grabbing a burrito (who hasn't sinned in the name of a delicious burrito?), and was even caught parked in a crosswalk. The tickets were all dismissed. Read more from the SF Gate. Tesla is looking for office space in Silicon Valley. As the electric car company continues to search for a place to build its $4- to $5-billion battery Gigafactory, it also needs some real estate to expand its operations near its Palo Alto home. Tesla has expanded from 3,000 to 6,000 California-based employees since the end of 2012, and plans to add 500 more by the end of the year. It is currently looking for 200,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space close to its Fremont factory, according to sources in the real estate industry.
