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 (816) 308-0351

Diesel details: Comparing Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, Chevy Silverado Duramax, Ford F-150 Powerstroke
Thu, Jun 13 2019With specifications for the 2019 Ford F-150 Power Stroke diesel already out, and the details on the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and Chevy Silverado Duramax (and its GMC Sierra twin) trickling out, we felt it was a good time to start comparing the full-size trucks' light-duty diesels. Bear in mind, we've only driven one of these new diesel trucks, so we'll be sticking to numbers for now. Some numbers haven't been announced yet, either, but stay tuned, because we'll be updating this post with additional specifications as they become available. And if you want to compare any other versions of these trucks with other vehicles, be sure to check out our comparison tool. Now let's start comparing, starting with our big chart of numbers below. As we can plainly see, these trucks are quite closely matched. Each one has six cylinders, a displacement of 3.0 liters and a turbocharger to boost it. The output of each is somewhat close, too. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel is the torque king at 480 pound-feet, 20 more than the GM trucks and 40 more than the Ford. The GM trucks win on power, though, with 277 ponies, 17 more than the Ram, and 27 more than the Ford. GM does report that you get their trucks' peak 460 pound-feet of torque from 1,500 rpm to 3,000 rpm, whereas the others only report peak torque at a particular point in the rev band, but all of these trucks should have wide, flat torque curves as you would expect from modern turbodiesels. 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel View 8 Photos Engine output is only one part of the truck performance equation. We also have towing and payload capacity, as well as fuel economy. With towing, the Ram 1500 is the current leader with a maximum capacity of 12,560 pounds. That tops the Ford F-150's 11,400-pound tow rating by well over 1,000 pounds. The F-150 can carry 2,020 pounds in its bed, but we don't know yet whether that's better or worse than the Ram or the GM trucks. We also don't have numbers for the GM trucks' towing capacities. View 9 Photos As for fuel economy, the Ford F-150 manages a thoroughly impressive 22 mpg in the city and 30 on the highway with two-wheel drive. Choosing four-wheel drive drops those numbers to 20 and 25 respectively. The fuel economy numbers for the Ram, Chevy and GMC haven't been revealed yet, but for some comparison, we can look at the old Ram EcoDiesel. That truck's best fuel economy was 20 in the city and 27 on the highway with two-wheel drive.
GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
