This 1970 step side underwent a frame off restoration 4 years ago. The builder was a gentleman in Georgia that built the truck for himself and spared no expense in doing so. He truly went all out on this build. A year and a half after building it he passed away and the truck sat for 2 years. It only has a little over 5000 miles on it since it was built. He put almost everything on this truck new. After purchasing it from his nephew I had the fluids changed and had the carb cleaned to be sure everything was good.
The truck is powered by a crate motor from GM Performance Parts. It is a 383 stroker with aluminum heads for 425 horsepower!! That is hooked to a 700r4, which was also bought from GM Performance Parts. It is set up perfectly. It shifts firm from first to second, then the other shifts are nice and smooth. It is running a positive traction rear end. I am not sure of the gear, but I would guess it to be a 3.55 or 3.42. It runs and drives awesome! Took it on a 9 hour trip and it performed great.
The interior has been all redone as well. The custom seat is a 40/20/40 split bench. The center part has a compartment under the seat and the rear folds down to give you 2 cupholders and an arm rest. The carpet is in excellent shape as is the door panels and the headliner. All of the gauges have been replaced with chevy bowtie gauges. All of them work perfect except the fuel gauge. It may have a ground issue. It works sometimes and doesn’t sometimes. It has a Lokar floor shifter as well as an IDIDIT chrome and tilt column. The Vintage Air AC unit works through the factory controls and blows cold. The kick panels are Custom Autosound with Pioneer 6.5” speakers built in. The only issue with the interior is the glove box door. The paint is peeling on the door only.
The exterior is in great shape. The body is straight and the paint is slick. All of the glass is in excellent shape. It has new new rear fenders. The marker lights are shaved. The gas tank has been moved to under the bed. The bed has all new wood and strips and shows perfectly. The wheels are a brand new set of Boss 338 with 17’s in the front and 18’s in the rear. They are rolling on brand new Nitto tires. It has LED tail lights. The panel just under the tailgate is about a 2” panel. That panel has 2 small places where the paint peeled after the truck was together, with the color what it is you have to look for it to find it. This is the only problem area on the paint. There is absolutely no rust in this truck!!
The underside is as clean as the top side. Again there is no rust on the underisde either. The rockers, cab corners, and floor braces are all perfect.
Under the hood is super clean. There is a lot of chrome accesories. There is a double electric fan setup that works off of a thermostat. There is a new 2 speed wiper motor. There is also new 18 circuit wire harness.
The truck is being sold on an open and clear Georgia title. It is being sold as is. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text 843-457-7564 or email at BionicABs@aol.com

Safety group pans GM’s new Marketplace in-dash shopping
Wed, Dec 6 2017When it comes to our cars, is the Internet of Things a godsend? Or a hidden menace that will create more problems than it will solve? On the same day General Motors announced it will equip newer-model cars with its in-dash Marketplace e-commerce app, a prominent safety group was shooting it down. National Safety Council President Deborah Hersman tells Bloomberg the technology will only contribute to distracted driving and hurt efforts to stem the tide of rising auto fatalities, which grew 5.6 percent to more than 37,000 in the U.S. in 2016. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says distracted driving was responsible for 3,477 fatalities and 391,000 injuries in 2015, the most recent year for which it has data. "There's nothing about this that's safe," Hersman told Bloomberg. "If this is why they want WiFi in the car, we're going to see fatality numbers go up even higher than they are now." Marketplace, developed with IBM, will allow drivers — or more often, one hopes, their passengers — to order coffee or food, find gas stations and reserve hotel rooms from their dashboard screens. The technology is set to be uploaded automatically to nearly 1.9 million GM vehicles model-year 2017 and later that are equipped with WiFi hotspots and compatible systems. By the end of 2018, about 4 million Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles will be equipped with Marketplace. The app will debut with a limited number of participating retailers, including TGI Fridays, Shell, Exxon Mobil and Starbucks, with more likely to join later. Online retail giant Amazon is also partnering with automakers such as Ford to bring e-commerce capabilities inside the car through its Alexa personal assistant. While convenience is nice, one other thing is becoming clear as the IoT wedges its way into our cars: It's taking aim at some decidedly first-world problems.Related Video: Image Credit: GM Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Technology Infotainment in-car entertainment marketplace e-commerce
Cars with the most reckless drivers are full of surprises
Wed, Oct 13 2021Insurify is a site for comparing auto insurance quotes. Because insurance shoppers need to submit information like the vehicles they're driving and the infractions they've compiled while driving those vehicles, Insurify has quite the database of correlations tying certain models to a habit of breaking certain laws. When the site's data analysts decided to compile a list of the top ten models for reckless driving citations in the decade from 2010 to 2019, the ranking contained a few wild entries. The Dodge Challenger making the countdown will surprise precisely zero people. But the Saturn L200? First, a definition: USLegal.com defines reckless driving as "driving with a willful or wanton disregard for safety. It is the operation of an automobile under such circumstances and in such a manner as to show a willful or reckless disregard of consequences." So this list is a caution about particular drivers more than the cars. For a baseline, according to Insurify data, for any random model, 15 out of 10,000 people who drive that model have picked up one citation for reckless driving. Back to that Challenger, then. No shocker for being here, but it's actually number 10, with 44 out of 10,000 Challenger drivers nabbed for a willful disregard of consequences on the road. That's better than the first surprise entry, the Saturn L200, a sedan only on sale for six years, with the least horsepower on the list, and out of production since 2005. The data set put drivers of GM's extraterrestrial sedan at 45 reckless pilots per 10,000 drivers. There are two pickups on the list, the only modern one being the Ram 1500 at eighth, with a rate of 46 in 10,000. Somehow, drivers of the third-best-selling pickup in the U.S. outrun the overwhelming numerical superiority of the best-selling vehicle in the States, the Ford F-150. The other pickup is the Chevrolet K1500 at number five, with a rate of 56 in 10,000. This is not only the oldest vehicle on the list, it went out of production in 2002, before any other vehicle on the list. Between the trucks, the Volkswagen CC slotted in at seven with 47 in 10,000 reckless driving chits, the Cadillac ATS slipped into sixth with 48 in 10,000. The top four is a bag of unexpected. The Nissan 370Z is the first hardcore sports car on the list at number four, with 61 in 10,000 Z drivers flaunting their Fairladys in the face of Johnny Law.
Sunday Drive: Trucks and SUVs of all shapes and sizes
Sun, Nov 5 2017The American automotive marketplace is dominated by trucks and SUVs, and so was the last week of coverage on Autoblog. By far, the most popular story of the week was our First Drive of the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. It may look like an old-school lumberer, but in reality Lincoln's flagship is a thoroughly modern, turbocharged-V6-powered, three-row, luxury people mover. The Jeep Wrangler is the world's most recognizable vehicle. So it's no surprise that the next version looks a whole heck of a lot like the last one, and the one before. It's all in the details, which is why we were so excited when Jeep decided to unleash a trio of images showing both two- and four-door Wranglers for us to dissect ahead of the SUV's official debut at the L.A. Auto Show later this year. Past that, spy photos of the next Chevy Silverado and Ram 1500 were predictably popular. See both of those below, and the cap it all off, check out the entire week's worth of SEMA coverage – including the bonkers Hennessey VelociRaptor 6x6 – in our mega image gallery at the bottom of this post. Enjoy! As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Lincoln Navigator First Drive | From black sheep to flagship 2018 Jeep Wrangler revealed: First photos released before L.A.
