Hi, up for grabs is probably one of the nicest trucks your going to come across in your searches....trust me I've
looked. Everything is done and done right. This truck was just completed and underwent a 2 year restoration and
believe me there's no disappointments. Theres only 1,600 miles put on the truck. If your in the market for a GMC
big window step side look no further. Truck is damn near show quality. Below I'm going to try and describe exactly
what I see and know about this truck.
Starting With The Outside: Laser straight and rust free body. Shaved rain roof rails and all emblems. Painted a
satin black with just enough clear to make it pop. There's all new chrome including front bumper, headlight bezels,
parking lamp lenses, outer door handles, mirrors, tailgate chains, wiper cowl and bullet wiper covers(wipers work
and will be included). All glass, frames, rubbers are brand new. I had the glass smoke tinted front to back and
looks great. Bed is many tubbed and has a nice wood kit installed. It shows signs of use because it's used and not
covered up. I replaced the GMC grill for the better looking Chevrolet. All headlights, taillights, and turn signals
work as they should.
Inside: All brand new top to bottom. Whole inside of cab was painted a gloss red and is show quality. Dash was
pulled and painted and an all new wiring harness installed so all electrical is in proper working order. New seat
foam and 2 tone red and black cover. There's new carpet, floor mats, window cranks, inner door handles, inner
rearview mirror, new aftermarket stock looking radio (amp and small sub combo behind seat..needs install) , all new
dash chrome knobs replaced, Ididit chrome tilt steering column and billet steering wheel, billet dash with chrome
face guages (everything works), red headliner and inner glove box. There's a badass Kilduf quick shift floor
shifter installed that works great. Red top Optima Battery and billet battery cover are brand new and are located
behind front seat for easy accessibility. Inside is perfect as you see.
Motor: everything done ! Here we go..... Professionally built 355 small block, Scat crank, Eagle Rods, Speed Pro
pop up Pistons, bored 30 over balanced, true double rolling timing chain, Chromally hardened push rods,...1.5
aluminum roller rockers, Lunati camshaft 525-548 lift cam, World SR. Heads, 202.160 exhaust stainless Manlet
valves, high rise single intake, 750 Cup Race Demon carburetor, polished long tube headers, Spectre chrome
aircleaner & breather, chrome alternator & brackets, belt system, upgraded chrome power steering and pump, MSD
ignition & HEI distributor, frame mounted master cylinder, oversize 4 core radiator with polished overflow, Erson
valve covers, etc, etc.....you get the idea. Price this motor out and you'll know what your getting. A ton of
horsepower. I'd put this truck up to anything street or track.....badass ! Yes runs on pump gas.
Transmission is a built 350 with 3000 stall that shifts with no hesitation.
Exhaust is a custom Duvall setup with race bullets 3inch pipe....you will love the sound..its a beast !
Frontend, Suspension and Undercarriage: Frontend has a Mustang 2 front clip with disc brakes, full front and rear
coil over adjustable suspension with 4 link in the rear, Ford 9inch reared with disc brakes, Possi rearend with 350
gears, gas tank has been relocated underneath the rear of the bed with top mounted gas filler.
Truck is currently rolling on a new staggered set of chrome 20inch B/G wheels with big tires. If you prefer more of
a old school street rod look I have a very clean set of staggered 17inch Torque Thrusts with very good tires for a
reduced price. Lug pattern is Chevy 5x4 3/4 front & back.

Watch the National Corvette Museum sinkhole being filled in by R/C cars

Sun, Jan 11 2015

Okay, so not exactly cars, but Bobcats - but still quite cool. You might remember that the National Corvette Museum had that little divot that needed to be filled in. Turns out the construction firm of Scott, Murphy & Daniel doing the work is using two remote-controlled Bobcats to fill the sinkhole with "manufactured sand," which in this case is crushed limestone. It appears that the Bobcat company has offered remote operation since at least 2007 via a wireless transmitter that works up to 1,500 feet away. So yes, that means two SMD employees stand on the edge of the pit and flick joystick levers for hours at a time, one in charge of a Bobcat with a roller-compactor attachment, the other in charge of a Bobcat with a bucket. And that, to us, is a pretty good way to earn the daily bread. Check out the video above for the latest sinkhole update.

Recharge Wrap-up: Indianapolis to switch 425 fleet vehicles to EVs, Chevy Corvette provides bat habitats

Tue, Nov 4 2014

Indianapolis will deploy 425 battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles as part of its municipal fleet by 2016. The fleet will include such cars as the Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Volt and Ford Fusion Energi. The city will also reduce its overall fleet by 100 vehicles. In all, the revised group - called the "Freedom Fleet" - will save $8.7 million and 2.2 million gallons of gasoline over 10 years. Read more at Hybrid Cars. EVs with longer range would make vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid energy management systems more practical for the US. The idea of using EVs as energy storage for emergencies or times of high grid demand is currently being tested in Japan with Nissan's Leaf-to-Home system. The US is also interested in such capabilities, but the higher average energy use of American households would make larger batteries in EVs ideal for grid storage applications. Read more at Green Car Reports. LG Chem has broken ground on its EV battery plant in Nanjing, China. The factory, when constructed, will have a capacity of producing batteries for 100,000 cars per year according to the Korean company. The plant will supply batteries for Chinese automakers such as SAIC and Qoros. Construction is expected to be finished by the end of 2015 and LG Chem expects revenue of more than $933 million by 2020. Read more in the press release below. General Motors is using adhesive used in the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to create habitat for threatened bat species. Artificial bat caves could help alleviate white-nose fungus that leads to diminished bat populations. Leftover adhesive is used to create stalactites in the artificial caves, allowing them more structure to hang from. GM has also provided Volt battery covers to create nesting habitats for bats, which eat harmful insects and help pollinate plants. See the videos and read more in the press release below.

2019 Toyota Avalon vs. full-size sedans: How they compare on paper

Mon, Apr 23 2018

Full-size sedans aren't exactly in great demand at the moment, and at least one of the vehicles in this comparison has been rumored to be on the endangered species list. Yet, we've just had our first drive in the 2019 Toyota Avalon, and if anything has a chance of rejuvenating the segment a bit, it's an all-new version of what has long been the segment's benchmark. To see how the new Avalon compares, we've put together the below spreadsheet featuring the Avalon's primary apples-to-apples rivals, the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala. We also included the Nissan Maxima, which is comparable in price, sales and non-luxury badge, and which offers the sort of increased driver engagement promised by the new Avalon XSE and Touring trim levels. We also included the outgoing Avalon for reference as well as that car's luxury cousin, the Lexus ES, which can definitely be cross-shopped with the luxuriously trimmed Avalon Limited. You can use our Compare Cars tool to create your own comparison, such as one featuring the rear-wheel-drive Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger or even Kia Stinger. Alright, enough chit chat. On to the spreadsheet. Performance and fuel economy The GM sedans may come standard with four cylinders, including a mild hybrid system in the LaCrosse, but puh-lease. The V6 is the name of the game in this segment, with outputs now surpassing the 300-horsepower mark. The LaCrosse is the horsepower and torque champ, though it also weighs a bit more than the new 2019 Avalon, so acceleration is likely to be comparable. The Impala weighs a lot more and has only a six-speed automatic, so despite having a wee bit more power, one should expect it to be pokier (not a good sign for a car rumored to be on the chopping block). One would expect the Maxima's 300 hp and lowest curb weight to result in the quickest acceleration, but then it's also strapped to a CVT, which despite being better than ever, is still a CVT. Things get worse for Chevy when you consider the Impala's base four-cylinder gets the same 25 mpg combined as the Avalon's V6 — once again a segment best. Now, should you really prioritize fuel economy, the 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid really stands out with a 43 mpg rating (or 44 with the base XLE trim) that bests the outgoing Avalon Hybrid. Honestly, after driving this new Hybrid, it actually seems like it would be the best bet for most buyers. There's sufficient power, and it only costs $1,000 more than the comparable V6 version.
