1984 Chevrolet C1500 !! Show Truck !! 40k In Restore !! 500 Hp !! No Reserve !! on 2040-cars
West Columbia, Texas, United States
This is a frame off 84 chevy 1/2 ton show truck. It was stripped down to bare frame and built up. There were no aftermarket panels used other than the hood. The previous owner bought donor trucks so he could use original rust free panels. The frame was stripped and zinc coated before it was painted to prevent rust. All the suspension,brakes and steering components were replaced. There was 13k tied up in the engine build alone. It is a 454 that was bored to a 468 with all forged internals,high lift cam,performance head work,aluminum intake,800 cfm edelbrock carb,long tube headers etc... The transmission is a built 700r4 (overdrive) with a 2800 rpm performance stall. The rear is a custom built 12 bolt. The paint (not including labor) was over 7k. There is not a single dent or scratch that I have seen anywhere on the truck. It has American racing torque thrust rims. 17" rims in front 18" in rear. The 295/45/18 and 275/55/17 inch tires are like new. The truck sounds awesome with the choppy idle and has electric cut outs installed on the headers that gives you the option of running open exhaust with the flip of a switch. The interior was redone with custom leather seats with a fold down center console. IT has a custom A/C compressor that is built to handle the rpms of the engine and blows ice cold. Truck runs and drives like new and is VERY FAST. Pictures don't do this truck justice. There were no shortcuts or money spared in this build. There is only 1700 miles on the truck since restored and has won multiple trophies at car shows. Here is your chance at a good deal in a NO RESERVE AUCTION. If you have any questions feel free to message me. If you would like to see the truck in person message me. We are located in West Columbia TX about a hour south of Houston. Bidders with less than 5 feedback should message me before bidding (so I know your serious) or I will remove the bid. Texas residence will have to pay tt&l. Thanks for looking and bid with confidence !! NO DISSAPOINTMENTS !! 500.00 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE AT END OF AUCTION |

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As 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.
Chevy Volt replacement battery cost varies wildly, up to $34,000
Fri, Jan 10 2014There's a growing hubbub in the plug-in vehicle community over what looks like some ridiculously cheap replacement batteries for the Chevrolet Volt going up for sale. GM Parts Online, for example, is selling a replacement Volt battery with an MSRP of $2,994.64 but, with an online discount, the price comes down to $2,305.88. For the 16-kWh pack in the 2012 Volt, that comes to a very low $144.11 per kilowatt hour (kWH). But is it a real deal? How can it be, when a Chevy dealer may quote you a price of up to $34,000 to replace the pack? For a 16-kWh Volt pack, $2,305.88 comes to a very low $144.11 per kWh. But is it a real deal? Battery packs in alternative propulsion vehicles are usually priced by the kWh and, historically, they've been thought to be in the range of $500-per-kWh for OEM offerings. Since automakers are understandably secretive about their costs, we still don't know what the real number is today, but we do know it varies by automaker. Tesla, for example, has said it pays less than $200-per-kWH at the cell level but, of course, a constructed pack would be more. Whatever is going on, li-ion battery prices are trending downward. So, $144.11 certainly sounds great, but what's the story here? Kevin Kelly, manager of electrification technology communications for General Motors, reminded AutoblogGreen that GM Parts Online is not the official GM parts website and that, "the costs indicated on the site are not what we would charge our dealers or owners for a replacement battery. There would be no cost to the Volt owner if their battery needs replacement or repair while the battery is under the eight year/100,000 mile limited warranty coverage provided by Chevrolet." A single price tag also can't be accurate for everyone, Kelly said. "If the customer needs to have their battery repaired beyond the warranty, the cost to them would vary depending on what needs to be replaced or repaired (i.e. number of modules, which specific internal components need replacement, etc.)." he said. "So, it's hard for us to tell you exactly what the cost would be to the customer because it varies depending on what might need to be repaired/replaced. As a result, the core charge would vary." But, is the $2,300 price even accurate for anyone? Thanks to a reader comment, we see that this similar item on New GM Parts makes it look like the lithium-ion modules that Kelly mentioned – where a lot of the expensive bits are – are not included.
