1969 Chevy Truck Pro Street Custom 454 on 2040-cars
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
|
'69 Chevy C-10, 454, Powerglide, narrowed 9" ford rear end. I'm selling this truck for a friend who does not have an ebay account, but he has to sell his baby for financial reasons. He has owned this truck for 20 years, and has hundreds of hours of work in it. He's a body man and has put many hours into the body work, you will not find many other trucks as straight as this one.
Body and paint: The top has been chopped 3 inches, the windshield has been laid back, the hood has been sectioned 1 inch. Tailgate has been seamlessly welded with a custom rear valence panel. Custom fabricated inner wheel wells and removable panels inside the bed cover the fuel tank and battery (the pictures have one of the panels taken off to show how they're removable). Flush mounted front LED turn signals and LED 3rd brake light. 4 coats of PPG Torch Red, 4 coats of clear, color sanded and buffed. Ghost flames inside the bed. Pictures really don't do the paint justice. Engine: 454, built by Budlong Engines (one of the high end shops here). Comp Cams Thumper Cam, gear drive, oval port heads (781 casting), Performer RPM air gap intake, 750 vacuum secondary holley carb, MSD distributor. About 10:1 compression. Runs on 91 octane pump gas, doesn't overheat, The truck is VERY fast, but not too radical that it's not streetable. Drivetrain: Powerglide, 3500 RPM Hughes converter, narrowed 9" ford rear end with 4:56 gears and traction-lock. Chassis: Frame has been back-halved with an Art Morrison rear subframe, 33x21.5 Mickey Thompson tires and Weld pro star wheels. Front suspension has been lowered with tubular lower control arms, and 2 inch dropped springs, rebuilt with all polyurethane bushings and converted to Disc brakes. Interior: Autometer gauges, Custom upholstery, Rockford-Fosgate amp and 10" sub woofer. All new wiring harness. new weather stripping. Issues: two small chips in the paint, one on the left side of the bed (pictured), and one on the right side of the bed (looks exactly like the one in the picture). One crack in the windshield, about 3" long, on the upper right corner, from when the windshield was installed (pictured) Other than these minor issues the truck is in show condition. Unfortunately the owner does not have time to fix these issues and he needs the truck gone so he is willing to sell it for way less than he has in it. The truck is also for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for looking! |

Bob Lutz says Tesla remains 'fringe' brand
Sun, Sep 28 2014We've said it before, we'll said it again: Bob Lutz gives great quotes. From his toilet-themed opinion of global warming to Toyota's deity status, the man knows how to get your attention. His latest? Saying that Tesla Motors is and will remain a fringe brand. Take that, Tesla fanbois. This, of course, is the same fringe company that prompted Lutz and his former colleagues at General Motors to start working on the Chevy Volt around eight years ago. The same fringe company that has easily outsold the similarly priced (but don't call it a competitor) Cadillac ELR with its Model S. Lutz did clarify that the fringe status will only last until Tesla comes out with a mass-market electric vehicle that has a range of 200 to 300 miles. Lutz was on CNBC talking about the TSLA stock's recent performance, and he pointed out that even Tesla CEO Elon Musk says that the California automaker's stock is overvalued these days. Despite its prevalence around these parts, Tesla is not yet a household brand. But the company is working hard to get a cheaper, long-range EV to market in the not-too-distant future, so this fringe thing may not last much longer than that show Fringe did.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.
