 Thank you for looking at my auction! Up for sale is a well built 1953 Chevrolet 5 Window Pickup. The truck was built by our shop in Marion, Oh called Poor Boys Resto. You can check us out on facebook. We are a local shop who builds hot rods and customs, does full restorations, and Custom race car work. We have an owned an operated Top Sportsman drag racing team, and bring to the table 40 years of combined experience between my father and I. This truck was a project that we built to keep as our own shop truck. Looking to put more money into our car as the season draws mid-way. So the truck is up for Sale As-is. The best components and the utmost attention to detail were mandatory on this vehicle. The details on the build are below. Any questions please do not hesitate to call me at 740-262-3732

Engine- 5.3l Ls, New wires, plugs, wire heat boots, starter, and alternator. Engine and alternator was mounted using Dirty Dingo slider mounts and the Alt only set up. 60,000 MILES!!!

Trans- 4l60E, 30" Lokar Trans mounted shifter. 

Drive TrainNew balanced custom driveshaft with new yoke and U-Joints built by Driveline 1 out of Columbus, OH. 75' Camaro GM 10 bolt 8.5 Rear end, Non-Posi, Drum Brakes.

Chassis- Factory chassis retained. Mustang II front suspension out of a mid 70's mustang. Front big disc brake kit. 11.5" drilled and slotted rotors with GM metric calipers.  Chassis was POR-15 painted. Boxed in the front where the IFS was installed. Brake lines are all stainless steel other than the tough bends and those are the NiCopp line. New chassis mounted power brake booster and master cylinder. Has a MANUAL mustang II rack. New Borgeson joints and stainless steel shaft were used as connections. Jegs 20 circuit wiring harness powers the chassis and inner cab. All lights are functional and new.
Truck Sits where it does because I like to drive things and not avoid railroad tracks or high bumps.  It lays running boards out in the grass and sits about 2" off the ground otherwise. Truck was built for functionality not to be a trailer queen. If that's the route you want to go you can adjust the front bag cups, and i will include a rear step notch kit, made for this frame from Gambino customs bought here on ebay.

Exhaust
- Hooker Block Hugger Headers, 2.25 single Custom built exhaust with a Flowmaster 40 Series muffler.

Air-Ride- The Air-Ride System is 100% RideTech other than the rear bags and mounts. Installed the RideTech front mustang II bag brackets, bags, and shock kit. Has the upgraded kit that comes with a larger rear tank, 2 compressors, and the red billet valve assembly which is mounted behind the seat. The rear set up is Slam Specialties 7" bags for a much nicer ride, paired up with Thor Brothers brackets.

Fuel System- Tanks Inc fuel injection tank. Bought the pump that is capable of handling 600hp. (We were going to run turbos on it.) The fuel System is 100% 6an braided line. Has the Corvette regulator system which is the return/filter/regulator all in one little tube.

InteriorThe dash was painted black with the polished glove box and radio cover. Factory re-covered and Fully re-built seat. All factory trim is in place and functional. It still needs carpeted, gauges, and the door glass put in. *You must purchase glass* Used the truck on nice days so never worried about it. Has a new chrome tilt column, a a new grant steering wheel. The turn signal and hazards are built into the column. Has factory door panels that i have not installed. Truck comes with another set of door that have all door and inner workings in it. You will need DOOR GLASS. All other glass in the truck was replaced with new seals.

Exterior- The truck was painted about 20 years and shows it with the beautiful patina it has. Has some bondo in the lower rear fenders, and front lower front fenders. That tail gate has quite a bit of bondo too. Not because of rust but i think because they were trying to smooth the lines out. The cab was purchased from kansas and has a few dents but ABSOLUTELY ZERO RUST. Bought a fulton visor to go along with it. Bed is not finished in the pictures but will be by auction end. Its getting red-oak to enclose the tank and Air-ride. There is absolutely zero room to work with using the factory chassis so instead of raising the bed floor 6-8 inches like an s-10 build i placed the tank near the cab for easy fill-ups and you will still have 4 1/2 foot of whole depth bed to use for parts, chairs, coolers, and etc.. You will have 8 bolts to take out for any air-ride service or fuel system problems. *Keeping it functional* especially for those without a lift.

Wheels- Wheels are Boss 338 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear. These are wrapped in new Nitto Neo Gen tires. Rears have a nice dish to them and give it that hot rod look.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
