Spring is almost here and it's time to get ready for the car shows and cruises. This beautiful custom 1956 Chevy truck is just what you need. It was purchased as a bare frame with the TCI suspension partially installed, the cab and front sheet metal. A complete frame off every nut, bolt and part new restoration was done. The truck features a reverse flip hood and a 1994 Sport Side bed. The suspension consists of a TCI Mustang II style Power Rack & Pinion and 4 link with chrome coil overs in the rear supporting a Mustang SVO rear with 3.45 posi. It rides on Billet Specialties GTX03 17" wheels wrapped in Kumho ties and stops on a dime thanks to the 4 wheel power disc brakes. Power is supplied by a GMPP 350 Ram Jet fuel injected crate engine with a polished Vintage Air Front Runner set up. It is factory rated at 350 hp and 400 lb ft of torque. The exhaust flows through ceramic coated headers to 2 1/2" stainless steel pipes with an H pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. The engine is backed up by a modified 700R4 with a 2500 converter and Lokar shifter. The interior consists of gray leather power GM buckets and tweed Rod Doors panels. The dash houses purple Dakota Digital gauges the controls to the ICE COLD Vintage Air unit and a Clairion stereo with CD. A Kenwood amp & Rockford Fosgate speakers complete the sound system.

Other upgrades include an aluminum radiator with a 3000 cfm sensor controlled electric fan, 15 gallon aluminum gas tank with an internal fuel pump mounted under the bed and an American Auto Wire Harness made specifically for the truck. Everything on this truck from the glass to the door mechanisms to the weatherstripping was all purchased new.My limited photography skills do not do this award winning truck justice. It is pictured on page 64 of the December 2011 issue of Classic Trucks. I reserve the right to end this listing at any time due to local listings.Interesting trades will be considered. Make me an offer, you never know. Any questions please call Brian at 865 908-7731 before 10 pm EST. Thanks for looking

GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production
Sat, Oct 24 2015Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow
Thu, 14 Feb 2013After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
