1972 GMC Short Bed. I personally built this truck from scratch and could tell you every single detail about it. I used mostly all stainless steel hardware throughout the entire truck. The truck is in really great shape with no major rust issues. I had a tough time finding a driver’s side door so there was a little bit of rust repair done but that is it. It had new rockers put on it (professionally done) before I bought the cab but other than that it is all original from what I could tell. The cab mounts are solid and the heater vents and firewall is all intact with no signs of rust. The bed was all sandblasted and painted and is in amazingly great shape. The fenders, hood, and core support are all original and in great shape too. The interior is mostly original or new. I installed a new dash pad, carpet, and rear view mirrors. The seat, seat belts, gauge cluster, and door panels are all original. I utilized the factory wiring harness while rewiring the main components of the wiring. I didn’t hack up the wiring or splice into it unnecessarily. I am very meticulous and made sure wires were run correctly. I also bypassed the GM starter solenoid and put a remote one on the inner fender so that a positive cable isn’t running alongside the engine and header. The engine is an original 396 from a CST10 truck. It has been bored and stroked using a 454 crank making the cubic inches out to about 440. It has Wiseco forged pistons and a bracket master camshaft. I installed a MSD distributor with calibrated springs and weights for the engine and utilized a 6AL box. I kept the mechanical fuel pump that feeds the 750 Quick Fuel carburetor which works flawlessly. The transmission is a Hughes TH400 with a B&M Hole shot 2400 converter and JW performance bell housing. The rear end utilizes a flip kit to match the 2.5in drop spindles and 1in springs up front. It has a new Detroit Locker with 4.10 gears and Moser axles. I installed Caltrac bars which give the truck consistent 1.65 60 foot times with Hoosier DOT Slicks. I raced the truck last summer when it had a 383 and it ran 12.80’s consistently. This year I made one pass at the drag strip without really tuning the engine before the rain settled in and it ran a 12.56 shifting at 5000rpms. I’m positive it will run in the low twelves without much tweaking and maybe even trickling into the high elevens. I painted the truck flat pale yellow to give it a faded beat up look. I then went around spraying some white primer here and there while leaving the hood and tail gate grey primer. I then had custom decals painted on it which was all free handed and really makes the truck look old school. There is a lot of detail put into the truck and it will not disappoint. It could easily be re-sprayed to look show quality. As I finish up Graduate School in the next semester, I plan on moving away and the truck will end up sitting for years. I really don’t need to sell the truck so it is priced fairly. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask. I’m sure there are some things I left out.

Impala SS vs. Marauder: Recalling Detroit’s muscle sedans
Thu, Apr 30 2020Impala SS vs. Marauder — it was comparo that only really happened in theory. ChevyÂ’s muscle sedan ran from 1994-96, while MercuryÂ’s answer arrived in 2003 and only lasted until 2004. TheyÂ’re linked inextricably, as there were few options for powerful American sedans during that milquetoast period for enthusiasts. The debate was reignited recently among Autoblog editors when a pristine 1996 Chevy Impala SS with just 2,173 miles on the odometer hit the market on Bring a Trailer. Most of the staff favored the Impala for its sinister looks and said that it lived up to its billing as a legit muscle car. Nearly two-thirds of you agree. We ran an unscientific Twitter poll that generated 851 votes, 63.9 percent of which backed the Impala. Muscle sedans, take your pick: — Greg Migliore (@GregMigliore) April 14, 2020 Then and now enthusiasts felt the Impala was a more complete execution with guts. The Marauder, despite coming along later, felt more hacked together, according to prevailing sentiments. Why? On purpose and on paper theyÂ’re similar. The ImpalaÂ’s 5.7-liter LT1 V8 making 260 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque was impressive for a two-ton sedan in the mid-Â’90s. The Marauder was actually more powerful — its 4.6-liter V8 was rated at 302 hp and 318 lb-ft. The ImpalaÂ’s engine was also used in the C4 Corvette. The MarauderÂ’s mill was shared with the Mustang Mach 1. You can see why they resonated so deeply with Boomers longing for a bygone era and also captured the attention of coming-of-age Gen Xers. Car and DriverÂ’s staff gave the Marauder a lukewarm review back in ‘03, citing its solid handling and features, yet knocking the sedan for being slow off the line. In a Hemmings article appropriately called “Autopsy” from 2004, the ImpalaÂ’s stronger low-end torque and smooth shifting transmission earned praise, separating it from the more sluggish Mercury. All of this was captured in the carsÂ’ acceleration times, highlighting metrically the differences in their character. The Impala hit 60 miles per hour in 6.5 seconds, while the Marauder was a half-second slower, according to C/D testing. Other sites have them closer together, which reinforces the premise it really was the little things that separated these muscle cars. Both made the most of their genetics, riding on ancient platforms (FordÂ’s Panther and General MotorsÂ’ B-body) that preceded these cars by decades. Both had iconic names.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
