I have my very well cared for and hard to find 1996 Tahoe 2dr 2wd custom show truck for sale. Truck use to be bagged on 22" billet specialties wheels. The pictures  are for reference only and the truck will be sold the way it is in the title picture. This one has been a project with no expense spared. It has a ton of mods so I will start off with all the modifications. 


Body - custom 08 Red paint, 2004 front clip, shaved upper body line, shaved doors, shaved gas lid, shaved rear doors with recessed license plate box, weld in roll pan, gas fill relocated to driver rear a pillar, custom one off metal front bumper with air dam ( narrowed and tucked under). Brand new barn door windows and brand new windshield and brand new passenger side cargo window. 

Suspension - Truck was previously air bagged. Currently has 22" wheels with 265/35/22. Still has 4 link installed in rear with coil mounts and new lowered coil springs and new shocks,  front has 2" drop springs along with 2" drop spindles and adjustable upper control arms. Truck sits with a 4/6 drop. Also the dip in the frame that Chevy puts on the tahoes just in front of the rear tires has been removed and boxed in so that it can lay out even front and rear and rear end has been narrowed 2.5" each side with moser axles, drilled and slotted rotors up front. 

Engine - has brand new MPI injection set up, intake manifold gasket was recently replaced with metal core felpro gasket, 10 gallon fuel cell mounted between frame rails behind rear end, vacuum lines replaced, custom air intake installed, truck has a custom true dual exhaust, new fuel pump, new coils, new plugs and wires and cap/rotor, has a high output 250 amp alternator with all 0 gauge stinger wire from alt to batter that is relocated to the passenger rear cargo area, all grounds are also 0 gauge stinger so the big 3 has been done as well. 

Interior - Custom slicked out and painted dash to match exterior, billet specialities steering wheel, new seats just recovered, front seats out of 99 escalade and rear seats are a 3rd row Tahoe seat that fits between the rear tubs, has new carpet installed in front/rear passenger area, center console, doors panels covered to match seats, the rear cargo area was raised 8" and completely boxed out with square tubing and covered in sheet metal, extra wide tubs installed, LED tail lights that mount in rear windows, AVS shaved door kit.

The below is a list of remaining things to be done to the truck 

Body - front bumper needs to be adjusted and final bolted to frame. Currently bolted snug with 1 bolt on each frame mount, air dam installed, driver fender needs minor adjustment to even door gap, a wiper cowl will need to be made/purchased, there is a small scratch below passenger door from loading it on car trailer and the door pins in the rear along with one small chip can be touched up, window wiper motor was taken out when painting the firewall just needs to be reinstalled. 

Suspension - Only needs an alignment, breaks bleed and if wanted 2" adapters in rear to bring out the wheels to stock location. 

Engine - Just recently tuned up and oil changed. I have a billet overflow tank for the radiator that will need to be installed along with either install the stock fan shroud or go with an electric fan. Truck has only been drive. 5 miles since the tear down in 07 but has been cracked up and ran every week to keep battery charged. The ac condensor was disconnected for front end swap and needs ro be recharged. It has not exhibited any issues for drivability. 

Interior - needs new seat belts, center console back installed, I have billet air vent they just need to be installed, I have chrome interior door handles that need to be installed and then the handles and door latch connected with a cable, door panel need to be bolted to doors, I will give the buyer a set of brand new Alpine Type S components for the doors just need to get them installed, interior panels need to be painted and installed, front passenger a-pillar needs to be replaced and the only interior piece I don't have is the rear door sill but I was covering everything in leather so I wasn't concerned with it, the rear of th back seats need to be bolted to the floor, the rear cargo area is all sheet metal and there are 8-3/4" holes where the tank lines where ran, LED tail lights were removed to modify trim panel and they need to be reinstalled but they are still connected and work perfect, the headliner will need to be made black to match and installed, the glove box is painted to match dash but needs the guts so that it can be installed. 

This truck has a ton of man hours and money spent on it. Unfortunately I have ran out of both in trying to finish it. With little time and money this truck can be featured in a mag. Truck truly is amazing and needs little work/money it only small items that it needs. I have tried to show the good / bad of the truck the best that I can. If you have any questions please email me. I will post more pics tonight.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
