RELISTING DUE TO A NON PAYING BUYER!!! IT COSTS MONEY TO LIST ON EBAY SO PLEASE DONT WASTE MY TIME. MAKE A REASONABLE OFFER AND I WILL ADD A BUY IT NOW.
Up for auction is a 1948 GMC 1/2 ton truck mounted on a late '80s chevy S10 frame. This one has the firewall and 2.8l V6 attatched as well. Ive seen these trucks done like this a few times, but this one is done very nice. The firewall and partial floor is welded nicely to a new solid floor in the GMC. The floor is all newly replaced with a heavy guage steel braced with angle iron and some box tubing. The frame was sectioned to adapt to the GMC wheelbase. Everything is overdone and is very solid. I got this truck as an unfinished project and just took it to the next level. The body has some metalwork done to it that also looks good. The bodywork and paint is not perfect by any means. The truck looks good, but has minor flaws and ripples that wont show up in the pics. The paint is basecoat clearcoat and only a few weeks old. The interior floor and roof is done with spray in truck bed liner. The new parts I added to this truck include: New Glass all around, Glass weatherstripping, mirror, door handles, oak bed floor, bed wear strips, headlight rings, marker and tail lights, clutch mastercylinder, clutch and pressure plate, tires, battery, wheel spacers, and probably some other small stuff that I cant recall. The windows go up and down ok, but the splines on the handle shafts are broken. All the lights work. Brand new big fat tires!!! The bed floor is a stained and varnished sheet of 3/4" oak plywood mounted on new bed braces. The S10 dash shows over 200k miles, but I was told the engine had less than 100k. The truck runs and drives down the road very good. Needs wipers and hood latch. I have the old A/C box and fan if someone wanted to retrofit it. I was going to do it, but ran short on time and mounted the battery in that area. There is plenty of room for someone to do a V8 conversion. Probably more room than on the original S10. No warranty. Any questions, or if you would like to swing by and take a peek, call me at 570-299-1755 or shoot me an email. Im setting the reserve very low. Most of my auctions on these old trucks don't go the full 7 days. Feel free to make an offer. I have a clear KY title for this truck. Titled as 48 GMC. Please don't play games. Bid to win!
I will have a 1949 Chevy 5 window 3100 on a full size frame with a 350 V8 available toward the end of this month.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black
Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip
Wed, Jan 21 2015There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
