1949 CHEVROLET PANEL TRUCK! OVER $30,000 INVESTED! FINISH THIS RESTORATION AND SAVE $$$ !

RARE 1949 CHEVROLET PANEL TRUCK! FULL GROUND UP RESTORATION NEARLY COMPLETED! VERY SOLID & STRAIGHT! REBUILT INLINE SIX!

     This Panel Truck has undergone a very lengthy restoration process. It began approximately five years ago and due to some unforeseen circumstances, she was stored away. Tucked away in a climate controlled garage, it wasn't until about two months ago that she was brought out of her cave. As you will see, an extensive amount of work, time, and money have been invested to get her to this point. In my opinion, she is about 90% done. All of the heavy work has been completed. I know that the previous owner had over $30,000 invested in to it. As she sits today, all she needs is some interior work, some trim pieces, some glass, and you could easily have a very nice classic on your hands.

Body: The body on this Panel Truck was completely taken down to bare metal. Every bad piece of metal was cut away and replaced. From what I was told as well as what I have observed, this Panel Truck was relatively solid to begin with. She still retains much of her original sheet metal. The body and paint work were done professionally. The paint is two stage base coat clear coat. It has never been wet sanded or polished which as you will see, she still shines out beautifully. There are no spider webs, cracks, blisters, nor any other major paint blemishes. She is missing her front glass but she does come with her original rear glass for each door. Both pieces are in good shape. She is also missing some of her chrome moldings. The white walls that she sits on are new and they do not have more than 50 miles on them. The bed to the Pickup was completely redone when the body work was being completed.

Engine & Mechanical: The Inline Six in this Pickup was completely tore down and professionally rebuilt. The same as the three speed manual transmission. Both do not leak and both do not have more than 50 miles on them since being installed. The Pickup has a rebuilt 10 bolt underneath it. All of the brake lines, fuel line, and suspension were all redone.

Interior: The interior as you will see, still needs completed. Which someone with a big imagination could take it in many different directions.tainty that it is the only one of its kind. It has the best of all worlds, wrapped up in to one!

     These Panel Trucks are absolutely captivating when you see them in person and this one is no exception. If you've got a big family and want to enjoy the luxury of owning a classic, there is no better way to go than with these Panel Trucks. They seem to be one of the few investment grade vehicles that consistently hold as well as grow in value. With this one, you can take comfort in knowing that you'll be getting it at a fraction of what the previous owner had in it. For what we are asking, you couldn't come close to building it to where it sits today. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the 49 early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. We do have a clear title for this 49. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two

Sun, Jun 19 2016

We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.

Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.
