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.

I added 2 better pics of the interior.  I have a few more that I took today but the listing only let me add 2 more.  If anyone needs a few more pics, just let me know.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes

Thu, Feb 5 2015

General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

Here's how Detroit is selling more luxury vehicles than Germany and Japan

Sun, Dec 14 2014

Now there's an attention-grabbing headline, eh? Although the answer to the riddle - pickup trucks and SUVs - might be somehow deflating, the numbers involved deserve a going over. According to TrueCar's figures (click on the table to enlarge), six of the year's ten best-selling vehicles in the US that sell for a transaction price above $50,000 are body-on-frame, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is the only foreigner to crack the top five. Every enthusiast knows that pickup trucks are 'Murica's most popular vehicle by a colossal margin, and there have been plenty of reports about the popularity of luxuriously appointed trucks and SUVs, but compare these figures from TrueCar: 70 percent of Chevrolet Tahoe sales have a transaction price above $50K, and The Bowtie is expected to make $3.9 billion in revenue on 66,945 predicted high-dollar sales; 95.1 percent of E-Class sales break $50K, so the German company will make $4.0 billion on 67,006 predicted sales in that pricing sphere. It's about the only time you'll see the Tahoe ranked right next to Mercedes' bread-and-butter sedan. Ram is ahead of those two with $4.2B coming from $50K-plus sales. The Ford F-Series does almost as much revenue as the next three combined, with an expected $10.8 billion coming from sales of trucks over $50K - more than a quarter of the model's total sales, when a base F-150 can be had for about $26,000. Yes, the Germans make a lot more money on fewer sales, but considering the comparison, the bottom line isn't too troubled by such facts. Weighing like-for-like, the full-size Ford walks it in every category; elsewhere, the Chevrolet Silverado outsells the Ram, but the Ram outsells the Chevy by 6.7 percent above $50K. And for all the flak GMC takes over swapping out grilles, the Sierra also outsells the Chevy in the well-appointed segment, 16.1 percent of sales versus 11 percent – the Professional Grade brand is a huge profit center for The General. You'll find more info in the TrueCar press release below.
