1998 Chevy S-10 Stepside 2WD with significant body modifications.The door handles are shaved with a remote drivers side door popper installed. The tailgate and the rear bumper are completely shaved. The roof opens up with a custom canvas sun roof. It has a custom-made fiberglass hood with a 4 inch hood scoop to allow the engine to slide up because this truck can go all the way down until the frame meets the ground if desired. This is made possible by a fully bagged suspension and a 3 inch body and frame drop. The drive train is a custom built 305cid/350 HP, 700r4 transmission that I bought out of a 1985 Chevy Camaro. This is the same injection system that was in the Corvette in those years. The engine has been fully rebuilt from the crank up. Every working part in the motor was either replaced or rebuilt including the 105lb injectors. The body is in very good shape for a 1998! There is very minimal rust on the body and undercarriage. There are a few places with rust on the center of the fenders, but that's about it. When the body drop was done all the floor boards and the bed floor were reworked so there is none of the rust that the S-10's usually have. It has a clean PA title. THIS IS AN UNFINISHED PROJECT. This truck does not run at this time. I just don't have the time or the space to finish this truck. The engine and transmission are in the frame but it needs to be polished up and wired with a "Painless Harness" which I have. I also installed a new ECM with a custom made PROM with my engine specs. It comes with 4 new tires, new front calipers and rotors. You will need to finish the fuel line routing,battery routing, radiator hoses, purchase & install a floor shifter ect. I have $ 3500 invested in the body and over $4000.00 invested in rebuilding the motor and transmission and another $1000 in the ECM, custom prom and "painless harness".

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado
Sat, Oct 9 2021During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
