This is a 1968 that looks like a 67 as the side markers are shaved and the stake pockets as well. The rear bumper is new and the front has a roll pan. the body is super straight and the paint looks beautiful but not what I would call show quality, probably better than driver as it does have minor flaws here and there.(its a driver) and a good one at that. Has spray in bed liner also
Motor is a 4 bolt main 350 with later model 194 heads, machine work done here at Morrison's(highly respected machine shop here in phoenix). flat top 4 valve relief pistons stock truck rods, cam is a split duration so you get the lift and do not suffer the overlap(low speed and idle quality), works real well, IT REALLY GETS WITH IT IF YOU KNOW WHAT IM SAYIN... Edelbrock dual plane manifold and a worked q-jet work pretty well together, mid length headers running through 2 1/2 pipes and flowmaster mufflers with stainless side dumps. the truck has power steering. The trans is a nise crisp shifting turbo 350 with a bpo 1800 converter. The rear is an open carrier and around 373 ratio. Cooling system is a new double pass aluminum radiator, factory fan clutch and shroud and stock water pump.
The seats are leather with a center section that makes a console or folds up to be a third seat, There is dynomat under the new carpet and sound deadner, custom carpeted gas tank partition has been added for looks .The window run channel and felts along with the cab weather strip has been replaced. Windshield and seal are new as well. Door locks and ignition all on the same key and all work as they should.
The front end has new ball joints and the truck now has disk brakes and a 5 lug conversion including the rear axel's,. The frame has one small area on the front right where it ha s been grafted for some reason but it appears to be a quality weld (pictured).........../.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan
Wed, Mar 15 2017GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.
