This car was purchased last year with the intention of finishing the interior and driving it for long hours and vast miles, but work won't relent and the spare time has vanished. I have driven the car quite often and always get great remarks and warm memories from those that see her, but this 53 is never going to see completion with me. The car has a recently rebuilt .030" bored 454ci big block with magnum roller rockers,comp cam, high velocity oil pump, gear drive,edelbrock dual-plane intake, holley street avenger carb, ported and polished heads, water pump and aluminum radiator. The TCI Street Fighter turbo 400 automatic trans is also a recent installation with it's own aluminum cooler mounted up front, and controlled with a B&M ratchet shifter. I was referred to a dyno sheet that showed approx. 420 horses at 530 ft/lb of torque for this engine.

The body is pretty solid, the rear door outer handles have been shaved, but the doors open fine from the inside. the front seat are from a Lincoln LSC from the late 80's, and should be updated to something more suitable for this neat ride. The steering column is a GM tilt column with the ignition key mount. The interior has never been completed, and I felt there was no cause to impose my taste if I was just going to sell. The car is a fun driver, it has a half-keg for a fuel tank mounted in the trunk; and it is connected to a fuel gauge. She doesn't leak any fluids or burn any oil,and includes some spare components and goodies. Contact Mark with any questions or to set up a time for a go-around, my # is 252-340-2683.

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015

Thu, Jan 14 2016

According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.
