Completely built from the ground up on a 1994 Chevrolet S-10 frame with Advanced Design Engineering of California's subframe kit by Tom's Rod's and Customs.  Body and bed were media blasted, primed and painted with PPG Silk Blue and a metal flake added to the clear coat on the cab for that "60's look".  Tom had a sign painter create a logo for the doors....I like it, but if the new owner does not, a quart of the PPG paint comes with the truck.  All receipts and manuals, wiring diagrams, etc. are included.

New GM Goodwrench crate 350 CID/290 HP engine with quadrajet carb, GM TH350 automatic transmission from Summit Racing, Lokar shift linkage on the floor.
Mallory HEI ignition, Holley electric fuel pump, new power front disc brakes and wheel bearings, rebuilt front end on Belltech drop spindles, Monroe Reflex rear shocks, rear drum brakes.
American Autowire wiring harness, new 30" steering column with tilt, Lobeck steering components, pedals and throttle linkage, Haneline gauge package, custom dual exhaust.  Power-assisted steering.
New chrome Vintique 15"x7" rear wheels, 15"x6" front wheels shod with Coker American Classic radials (235 and 215).
New Vintage Air Conditioning/Defrost/Heat made expressly for this series of Chevy trucks, and it blows cold air.  Temp gauge never gets over 190*. Cab roof and doors have been soundproofed and insulated.  New headliner.  New outside rearview mirrors.
New Stainless and Pine bed.  Wood treated with Minwax Spar UV protected satin polyurethane.  All the glass and rubber are new.

Truck was built to be super dependable and be a good driver and it is.  A few minor scratches here and there, and the hood support springs vibrate a bit.  Removed the little stereo Tom had in the glovebox but had to remove it to make way for the Vintage Air ductwork...but there is some good space behind the glovebox door for items, just not deep enough for a radio.  Speakers are still in the doors.  There are several AM/FM stereos that fit in the dash without cutting...just remove the plate behind the plugs.  Classic Parts of America sells one for $180.00 and there are others to choose from.

Chevrolet planning new crossover between Equinox and Traverse

Wed, Jul 22 2015

Chevrolet is taking a crowbar to its crossover lineup so it can slide in a new entry between the Equinox (shown) and the Traverse, according to a report in Automotive News. The current Equinox, a tweener compared to its rivals, will get smaller when the next-generation vehicle moves to the Delta platform that underpins the Chevrolet Cruze. The next Traverse will remain full-size, the liberated space between it and the smaller Equinox making room for a fourth offering from the brand. Designed on a short-wheelbase version of the Traverse platform, AN's sources say it will offer three-row seating, and its architecture will also serve the Cadillac SRX successor, the XT5, and the redesigned GMC Acadia. Yes, the Acadia will also come down a notch in size. Once all the rationalizing is complete, the Trax, Equinox, new crossover, and Traverse would give consumers a quicker, easier way to compare size and features with the competition. As it stands, the Ford Edge, Nissan Murano, Honda Pilot, and Toyota Highlander are all larger than the Equinox. The future offering and its two- and three-row seating options would take clear aim at those four vehicles, and the Equinox could focus on the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Jeep Cherokee segment. The new Chevy is predicted to go on sale at the end of next year as a 2018 model. Related Video: Featured Gallery 2015 Chevrolet Equinox View 14 Photos News Source: Automotive News - sub. req.

Least reliable cars and trucks of 2022

Tue, Nov 15 2022

Related: Most reliable cars and trucks of 2022   Every year, Consumer Reports ranks new cars based on their predicted reliability. We often see Toyota, Lexus, and a few other automakers near the top. But on the other side of the coin, the list of least reliable vehicles sometimes contains surprises.   The organization surveys its members to determine the vehicles that exhibited the most problems over the prior year. Owners are asked about creaks and rattles, the durability of parts and trim, and mechanical issues. Consumer Reports assigns a weight to each problem and then uses them to create a score, with 100 being the best. Some familiar names appear on the list of least reliable vehicles (in order with the lowest predicted reliability score at the top), but there are a few eyebrow-raising models, followed by CR's score: Ford F-150 Hybrid: 4 Hyundai Kona Electric: 5 Lincoln Aviator: 8 Nissan Sentra: 9 Ford Explorer: 16 Chevrolet Bolt: 17 Chevrolet Silverado 1500/GMC Sierra 1500: 19 Jeep Gladiator: 21 Mercedes-Benz GLE: 23 Jeep Wrangler: 24 Consumer Reports noted that sedans are the most reliable vehicle category and found that trucks are far lower on the list. That said, the survey showed that trucks from American brands tended to have better reliability scores, so it’s surprising to see GMÂ’s big two and the Ford F-150 on the list. Part of their problematic ownership experience could be due to the fact that all three trucks have received recent updates, and the Ford was completely redesigned for 2022. New tech, fresh drivetrain components, and other improvements can upset the balance of reliability and make newer models look less dependable than their older counterparts.

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
