Hey guys, what you are looking at is a truck I have had for years and a few years back I began customizing it and dropped in a 350 small block engine that was sent to GM and completely re-done before we built it. Im not trying to conceal anything but the truck is as is of course. I will go over everything that's been done and might need completion. Obviously it needs a new paint job. The entire truck has been sanded in the past but could use a good sanding before taking it for paint. The back is grey simply due to the fact I sprayed it down with a primer to prevent any serious rust issues from occurring. There is no significant rust on the body of the truck ie. holes, soft spots, damage. The truck has been kept in the garage at the house for the past couple years now so no significant exposure to the elements for some time. The lights work and most of the gauges are connected. The speedometer needs to be reconnected. The interior needs a little cosmetic work/finishing but nothing too serious unless you hate everything about it of course. In the photos it is very dusty due to leaving the windows down while in the garage. The door handles have been shaved off and it has door poppers set up but the main box is out that sends the signal to pop. There is a sunroof installed that is very big and very nice in the summer/night. It is manual and it can come out completely. It does not leak. The rear end has been tubbed for larger tires/wheels. The top of the bed is one solid piece so if you want to get fancy with a paint job you can. A tailgate is still on the back which does open up and locks. The front end has a custom valance, chrome bumper, and a custom billet grille. Im not sure you can even find those anymore since everyone who sees it wants to buy it off of me. The glass does have a nice size crack in the lower right passenger side from a battery falling out of a tool (awesome). The rear window is lexan with a spot for a license plate. The top break light on the cab has also been shaved off. I would try to complete this project as the most expensive and time consuming parts are primarily completed but I no longer have a lift, tools, and shop to work on it in. Just my garage and with a small child and a wife pushing me to get it out of the garage! Lets get to the expensive work.
Engine: Edlebrock Heads and Aluminum Valve Covers Edlebrock Carb intake 850 Holley 4 Barrell K-N chrome breather Electric Cooling fan 3/4 Insy Cam Shaft Dual exhaust 400 Turbo Auto transmission Custom Wheels and Tires Custom Shifter mounted in floor. Custom Hood for more airflow Before the engine was installed the body had around 115,000 miles on it. The interior is all changed now so I don't have the exact number. This engine was built and installed professionally by one of the head technicians at Reliable Chevrolet in Springfield MO. I won't publicly post his name but he has 15+ years experience and is a pro. I am not a pro and wanted this engine to be solid. A couple things on the engine is that I had planned to install a bigger electric fan simply because when you idle for too long it does get fairly hot in the summer. This thing sounds like a monster when you start it up, gas it, or idle. People simply don't expect the sound this thing emits. Most people turn to look expecting to see an older hot rod I am told. If you want to see this thing in person you can contact me via eBay and we can schedule a time. Im taking a big loss selling this thing so cheaply simply due to the cost of the engine which has very low miles on it. Under 100 on the engine but it does start and runs great. Even though I have stopped working on it I do fire it up at least every week and take it for a neighborhood drive. If you are not local/driving distance to pick this up in person I will require you to pay in full via paypal and set up your own shipper. (I will do whatever I can to assist but will not book or be responsible for shipping). Again this is a project truck, as-is, and I would suggest using a trailer to transport it simply due to missing mirrors and it screams getting pulled over initially. If you have any questions feel free to message and ask and I will do my best to answer. |

Chevy reveals new IndyCar aero package
Tue, Feb 17 2015The IndyCar Series is not one that demands its participating teams and automakers to design their own chassis as they do in Formula One, but for this season, the organizers have opened it up to allow for custom aero packages. What you're looking at here is the new look of the chassis to be fielded by teams running under Chevy power. Based on the Dallara DW12 chassis – introduced three years ago and named after the late Dan Wheldon – Chevy's new package is designed for road courses and short ovals, with the speedway configuration to be revealed later. The kit features new wings front and rear and more sculpted side pods. It's also got new wedges at the back to envelop the otherwise open wheels that are a hallmark of Indy racing, a more streamlined engine cover and bigger rear bumper pods. The new package will debut at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg that will kick off this year's championship in Florida on March 29, followed by the road-course grands prix in Louisiana, Long Beach, Alabama and Indianapolis before the new package needs to be ready for the Indy 500 late in May. Half of the teams on the starting grid this season will be running under Chevy power and are expected to use this new aero kit, with the remaining Honda teams slated to run a different package of their own. Chevrolet Debuts All-New 2015 IndyCar Aero Package Chevy-developed bodywork delivers improved aerodynamics 2015-02-17 INDIANAPOLIS – Chevrolet-powered racecars in the 2015 Verizon IndyCar Series will feature Chevrolet-developed aero packages. Chevrolet introduced the road course/short oval body design today at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is distinguished from the previous racecar with new front wing elements, sculpted side pods and a new rear wing. A speedway configuration for the aero kit, designed for high-speed ovals, will be introduced ahead of its competitive debut at Indianapolis in May. "This is an important milestone in Chevrolet's involvement in IndyCar racing," said Jim Campbell, General Motors U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. "We focused on developing an aerodynamic package that delivers an balanced combination of downforce and drag, along with integrated engine performance. It's a total performance package." The new Chevy road course aero configuration delivers greater aerodynamic performance than the previous design.
2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Custom Sport Quick Spin
Fri, May 8 2015Coincidentally, the week we had the 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Custom Sport a friend asked, "What would you buy if you could only have one vehicle for everything?" After a week's driving and trailer hauling, very close to first choice would be an American pickup. They're all so good now, you can't lose. And as we found in the Chevy you can go anywhere and haul anything, and you pay no penalty for capability until you try to find an open space on the street to park. Nicely equipped versions like the Custom Sport aren't cheap, but if you need a truck and you like the look of this one, it is really good. Driving Notes The cabin is big and inviting, and everything in it is big and inviting. The materials are nice enough to look and feel swanky but not so lavish that you're afraid to get them dirty. The seats are sized for adult male bears but they don't swallow you up. The sunroof is big enough to be an observatory. It's also quiet. The only time it gets mildly unruly is when you call for power and the engine has to downshift a few gears, otherwise you don't hear the exhaust unless you roll down the window. It looks like it was designed with a T-square. I quite like it, the body-colored bumpers toning things down, the 20-inch wheels doing a much better job of filling those ample arches than the standard 17-inchers. The truck is built for people who take their work and all their gadgets with them. The front console has three USB ports, two 12-volt cigarette lighter ports, and a three-prong 110-volt outlet. The giant cubby at the base of the console has an insert to hold a clipboard or a small tablet. The abyss under the center armrest has one more 12V cigarette lighter, two more USB ports, an SD card reader, and another specialized holder for something the size of a small tablet. There's a WiFi hotspot so the streaming never has to stop. The Chevrolet navigation was trouble-free as usual, and you can input destinations on a QWERTY touchscreen keyboard. Every nav system should be so solid. The Silverado has some of the best feature implementations we've encountered in any vehicle. The lane departure warning and park assist systems don't vibrate the steering wheel, they vibrate the seat. The left, right, and middle of the seat bottom will pulse as necessary, an intuitive, peripheral way to deliver a message that doesn't interrupt your primary focus. The rear-view camera is no longer offset, it's centered.
Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race
Thu, Sep 8 2016The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.
