Eldorado, Illinois, United States
This is neat little ride! This truck has been extensively modified with a 455 Oldsmobile power plant with a 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor linked up to a Turbo 350 automatic transmission supplying power to a Chevy 12 bolt posi trac rear end. Suspension has been upgraded with independent front suspension, power brakes, power steering and lowered stance. Wheels are polished aluminum with brand new tires. There is a large aluminum radiator with a transmission cooler that works to keep everything running nice and cool. Temp seldom ever gets above 160. The interior is nice with cloth bucket seats, new black carpet, B&M shifter, 4 speaker AM/FM/CD stereo system and a brand new console. All glass is excellent with no chips or cracks. Windows are manual and work properly. The bed has a solid plywood floor covered in nice black carpet and the bed sides and gate are Rhino lined. A nice black snap down tonneau cover protects the bed and it has no rips or tears and removes easily. The paint on this truck is nice but not Concourse quality. It is consistent with a strong amateur paint job and will win you some trophies at your local cruise in or car show. There is evidence of some body repair, but currently no rust through or bubbling noted. There is one small area on the lower drivers door where some filler has fallen off, but it does little to distract from the truck. You need to come inspect this truck and take it for a ride to fully appreciate it. I do encourage and welcome pre purchase inspections of this vehicle. I will make no arrangements for shipping this truck, and if the sale requires shipping it will be totally up to the buyer. Thanks for looking at this nice little ride, and good bidding!

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
