General Description
This is a 1949 chevy 3100 3 window cab with a 1974 Camaro, we bought a fully running Camaro to build this truck we used everything possible out of the doner car to get this truck upgraded to power steering, power brakes, disk brakes in front. The truck came from a small town called Cuba in northern New Mexico from an old man on a small property in town he had lost the title and so when I researched it, it was totally out of the system he said it had been parked since the 70s. So the local MVD has no record of it. This is a poor mans truck or poor boy style with the original swamp cooler and jerry can we even have an old aftermarket heater that came with the truck which will also be included. 

RUST 
The trucks main rust issue was in the front cab corners. We decided to leave this truck as it was when we pulled it out of the field but we also wanted to make it fully functional so the outer cab corner skins were left as is but the floor was repaired and is now very solid the truck has its natural surface rust throughout the body also the bed has rust in the rear bed pillar corners behind the taillights.

ENGINE
This was the original engine out of the 74 Camaro numbers matching original two barrel carburetor has very good compression car ran rough when was purchased it, needed new wires and plugs and it ran very strong after some tuning was done then we were able to drive the car with no problem.
Has a HEI distributor new intake, valve cover, and oil pan gaskets as far as the millage on the engine its is unknown.

TRANSMISSION
Equipped with a turbo 350 short tail shaft ran great but was not shifting into 3rd gear so we had it rebuilt  

SUSPENSION
1974 Camaro subframe with disk brakes, power steering, power brakes, and air bags. Rear suspension is also out of the Camaro 10 bolt and leaf springs C-notched with air bags over rear axle. The complete truck came off the frame in order to make the modification more easier and accurate this truck is squared and modified correctly (SEE OUR PREVIOUS BUILDS TOWARDS BOTTOM)  This is not our first build.

AIR RIDE SYSTEM
This is a very simple system consisting of 1 Viair compressor, one 5 gallon tank, 4 AirSlammit dumps that are controlled by two switches in the dash. 1 front up and down and 1 rear up and down. pressure switch is a 140 psi on and 180 off. System operates only when key switch is on

WIRE HARNESS & ELECTRICAL
Everything is powered by the Camaro wire harness the following circuits are operational. Fuel gauge, dash lights, running lights, high beams, taillights, stop lights, turn signals, four way flashers, dome light oil pressure coolant temperature and cigarette lighters. Non working components are windshield wipers speedometer and grille parking lamps

INTERIOR
We also decided to keep the original patina in the interior and just added the door panels and kick panels no head liner. The seat is the rear seat from the Camaro and was modified to fit the original seat frame but sits lower and more comfortable than the original. New carpet with padding underneath 

GLASS 
We have installed a new windshield glass along with new rubber the driver side is not cracked but is old the passanger and rear glass is cracked

HOW DOES IT RIDE?
Breaks have excellent response engine is strong transmission is smooth and can cruise 80 down the highway no problem. The ride can be bumpy or very bouncy if air is not adjusted right. especially since there are no shocks on the truck. She is fast for a two barrel and not as fuel hungry and can still burn rubber.

2016 Chevy Volt to make auto show debut this season

Wed, Jul 30 2014

Ever since we saw that spy shots of the 2016 Chevy Volt, we've been hungering for more information on the next-gen version of GM's green halo car. It appears we might not have long to wait, at least for an official tease. An inside source that wishes to remain anonymous told AutoblogGreen that GM will make two announcements regarding the second-gen Volt at the CAR Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI next week. The first, and most intriguing, is that that we will get our first glimpse of the new Volt at some point during the upcoming auto show season. That means either Los Angeles later this year or else Detroit, Chicago or New York in early 2015. The second bit of news is that GM will be moving production of the electric motors from Mexico to Michigan. Details and official confirmation are, of course, missing and Chevrolet declined comment to AutoblogGreen. We should know more next week.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt

Fri, Oct 31 2014

The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
