 Fleetside Shortbed Big Back Window – Custom Air Ride Suspension

  • ·         New lowering shocks
  • ·         She rides like a Cadillac!

 

Exterior:

  • ·         Side trim moldings replaced in 2013
  • ·         New chrome rear bumper
  • ·         New bumper brackets – slightly modified to bring bumper closer to bed
  • ·         New license plate bracket/light

  • ·         New Ididit tilt steering column with column shift and original steering wheel 
  • ·         In March 2014, both doors were gutted and all new components were installed:

·         New window regulators

·         New door handle relays

·         New window cranks

·         New door handles

·         New arm rests

·         Both doors/panels were lined with FatMat sound deadener

·         Truck has a modern CD player with auxillary connections, and a pair of 6”x9” speakers. 

  • ·         Brand new Auto Meter Old Tyme gauges (6 in total) in a billet gauge panel with LED turn signal and bright light indicators.  
  • ·         All factory wiring removed and a brand new EZ-Wiring harness installed in December of 2013.  Has 21-circuits with 18 fuses.  Color coded wiring.  Unused wires spooled under dash, so you can still upgrade with AC, power windows, etc with ease.
  • ·         Factory gas tank removed from behind the seat and a 1st gen mustang tank was put in the frame rails at the rear of the truck. 
  • ·         New window seals
  • ·         New door seals
  • ·         New glove box
  • ·         New rear view mirror

 

Under the hood:

  • ·         Small block 350 (91 or 92 block) with Vortec heads – block painted orange
  • ·         New Edelbrock 600CFM carb installed in January 2014 – electronic choke (tap the gas peddle once when it’s cold, starts right up)
  • ·         Edelbrock intake manifold
  • ·         Ram horn exhaust manifolds
  • ·         Freshly rebuilt 700R4 overdrive transmission installed in Feb 2014 – she’ll cruise at 70 on the highway at around 2,000 RPM’s

What does this truck need to be finished?

  • ·         Bed floor - That said, I get more people coming up to me talking about the rear frame mod’s than any other part of the truck, so it’s honestly kind of cool to have it open.
  • ·         I have the original wheel tubs and bed cross-members if the buyer wants them.
  • ·         The front inner fenders were cut to allow the truck to sit lower when laid out.  The cut-outs have not been covered, as there was a plan to go with a Porterbuilt front cross-member in the future, ultimately lowering the front down even further. 

 

I will upload additional pictures and likely a video soon.  I have pictures throughout the build, so if I missed anything, don’t hesitate to ask. 

Again, this is a very solid truck that is reliable, starts every time, and can comfortably cruise on the highway. 

 Clear TX title comes with truck.

Buyer responsible for setting up and arranging shipment, but I will be available to meet.

 Truck sold as-is, where-is with no warranty expressed or implied.

 Not currently for sale locally, however, I reserve the right to end auction at any time.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

My year in EVs: 8 electrics that are changing the car industry

Wed, Dec 1 2021

The year 2021 will go down as an inflection point in the auto industry’s transition to electric vehicles. It's when many much-anticipated models became reality. No longer sketches or sketchy prototypes, electric vehicles appeared from all corners with everything from the Lucid Air to Ford Mustang Mach-E changing how we think about transportation. I managed to drive a lot of them, and as I went through my notes, I realized IÂ’ve got a mini memoir of the seminal EVs of 2021. HereÂ’s my take on eight of them. Hummer EV Easily the most over-the-top EV I tested this year. The 1,000-hp super truck lived up to the hype with its domineering presence, stupendous power and simply being a reincarnated Hummer. I took it for a short spin on- and off-road at the General Motors Proving Grounds in Milford, Mich., and was impressed with the airy cabin, removable sky panels and expansive touchscreens. Yes, I crab walked, which felt like steering a pontoon boat, though I can see why it would be useful. Lucid Air Dream Performance The most beautiful sedan I tested all year, EV or otherwise. Unlike the futuristic Mercedes EQS — which is quite attractive — LucidÂ’s car is a blend of mid-century modern interior aesthetics and classic European exterior styling. When I walked up for my test drive, someone who IÂ’m pretty sure was comedian Jon Lovitz was sitting inside and taking it all in. As it sat in the valet of a hotel in a wealthy suburban enclave north of Detroit, the Lucid drew more attention than any of the Mercedes, Cadillacs or Lexus models passing by. The driving experience was enveloping. Starting at $169,000 for the Performance model (reservations are closed), the Lucid I sampled packed 1,111 hp and 471 miles of range. From the precise steering to the comfortable suspension, the dynamics were spot-on. It's a formidable product, and all the more impressive given itÂ’s LucidÂ’s first. Chevy Bolt EV The Bolt was the most pleasant surprise for me. It handled well, offered low-to-the-ground hot hatch dynamics and the steering was dialed-in. Adding a crossover variant for the new generation was a smart play. On a summer morning where I went to a first drive of the Ford Bronco at an off-road course, my hour-long commute in the Bolt was an enjoyable appetizer.  The Bolt was also my biggest disappointment due to its extensive recalls for fire risk. Ironically, I had the Bolt in my driveway when the initial recall went out for the previous generation (2017-19).

GM offering factory-backed extended warranty for Chevys, GMCs, Buicks and Cadillacs

Mon, Oct 15 2018

Cars are generally more reliable than ever before. When things do go wrong, every automaker offers some form of factory warranty (in most cases at least three years and 36,000 miles, though many extend even longer), providing peace of mind to new-car buyers that many faults will be fixed at no charge to the customer. Starting today, GM is offering a new optional plan that will extend the factory warranty on all new Chevy, GMC, Buick and Cadillac products. In the past, extended warranties have been offered as dealer add-ons, with all profits from these sales going to the dealership. GM's new program can be viewed as another nail in the the looming dealership-model coffin. According to Automotive News, some dealers aren't happy to see GM cut into their business like this, saying that it helps GM far more than it does dealers. GM says the new program will help keep customers in the GM family. Customers are also more likely to visit a GM service center rather than going to an independent repair shop. Currently, new Chevy and GMC vehicles come with three-year/36,000-mile warranties. Buicks and Cadillacs are covered for 4 years or 50,000 miles. The new program extends Chevy and GMC warranties to five years or 60,000 miles. Buick and Cadillac warranties extend to six years or 70,000 miles. GM, citing IHS Markit, says most owners keep new cars for about 6.8 years, so these warranties will cover most of the length of their ownership. The extended warranty will add between $1,000 and $2,000 to the price of a vehicle, and the additional cost can be rolled into the vehicle's purchase or lease price. Unlike many dealer extensions, the factory program covers the vehicle no matter who owns it. That should help increase the car's resale value if it's sold within the covered timeframe. GM says there's no deductible and no need to file a claim form when getting warranty repairs. Additionally, dealerships can continue to sell their own extended warranties or service contracts.
