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.

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06s en route to owners [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014Pretty much right on schedule, Chevrolet has begun shipping the very first customer examples of its 650-horsepower, supercharged Corvette Z06. In fact, according to General Motors, the earliest Z06s could be in customer hands by the end of this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, manager of Chevy's Bowling Green Assembly plant. "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." Prices for the Z06 start at $78,995 for the hardtop model, while the first-ever Z06 Convertible kicks off at $83,995. Take a look below for the official press release from Chevrolet, and while you're down there, we've slipped in a new video of Corvette Racing's Tommy Milner taking a hot lap of Road Atlanta in a Z06, complete with some Performance Data Recorder footage. First 2015 Corvette Z06s on Their Way to Customers Most capable model in Chevrolet's history now shipping from Bowling Green BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Chevrolet is now shipping the all-new 2015 Corvette Z06 coupe from Bowling Green Assembly and some early customers could receive the much-anticipated supercar later this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, plant manager of General Motors' Bowling Green Assembly plant, "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." The new Corvette Z06 offers the most choice for customers in the model's history. It is the first Z06 to offer an available eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and, thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. In addition, it is the first time since 1963 that the Z06 is available as a convertible – which will arrive in early 2015. The new LT4 supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine is SAE-certified at 650 horsepower (485 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 650 lb-ft of torque (881 Nm) at 3,600 rpm – making the 2015 Corvette Z06 the most powerful production car ever from General Motors and one of the most powerful production cars available in the United States. To balance performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages a trio of advanced technologies – direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing –with a new, more efficient supercharger. The LT4 helps make the Corvette Z06 the most capable car in the brand's history.
Nissan Leaf sells 3,186 in best month ever as Chevy moves 2,511 Volts
Wed, Sep 3 2014The end of summer seems to inspire people to go out and buy a lot of plug-in vehicles. Last year, for example, the Chevy Volt had its best month ever in August, with 3,351 sales. This year, the Nissan Leaf is going up to the winner's podium, setting its own best-ever record with 3,186 units sold. This beats the Leaf's previous record by 69 vehicles. This beats the Leaf's previous record of 3,117 set in May 2014 by 69 vehicles and is up 31.7 percent from August 2013. Nissan is once again quick to remind us that the popular EV's record sales streak has now been extended to 18 months in a row. This record is simply noting that the current month, in this case August, had the highest sales that that month has ever seen in the US. Over all, US Leaf sales are up 34.1 percent so far this year. In a prepared statement, Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said that the Leaf is selling well on both coasts, including cities like Raleigh, Boston and Washington, DC. "It's what we call the 'cul-de-sac phenomenon,' where once someone in a community buys a Leaf, then friends, family, co-workers and neighbors see the benefits of this fun-to-drive electric vehicle firsthand and are sold on the idea of going electric," he said. The Volt also had a good month - its best of 2014 by almost 500 sales – but the 2,511 Volt sales still represent a drop of 25.1 percent from the excellent sales the Volt had this time last year. In fact, August 2014 represents the Volt's best sales month since, well, August 2013. Apparently, there's just something about the end of summer. As always, we are working on our in-depth round-up of green car sales across the country and will have that up soon.
General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem
Thu, Feb 13 2014General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.
