Hi, and thank you for looking at my beautiful custom street rod, gem of a truck. I'm going to try to give as complete of a description, as I can, so as to make your purchasing decision, a lot easier. First off, I have owned this truck for about 10 years, and I am the the 3rd owner. This truck was born in Fremont, California with a six banger and three in the tree as standard equipment. It has the small "Gangster Rear Window", which is rare, because they only made these for 1/2 of a year in 1967. The first owner, owned the truck for 31 years, and the second owner had it for 5 years. This owner did all the custom work on the truck and he worked on it for 4 1/2 years. I bought it 6 months later. The truck has the original owners manual and warantee protecto-plate. The builder installed a 1971 350 truck (new crate) engine, and 1972 truck running gear. The top is chopped 3 1/2 inches, front is lowered 4 inches, and rear is lowered 6 inches. You will note that the windshield is lowered into the crowl w/ hidden wipers. This is the standard windshield for the truck, as well as all the other glass. Nothing had to be cut. Because so much time and expense was involved in building this incredible piece of work, I'm going to generalize the other features that were added to the truck. Here goes: power steering and brakes, tilt steering, and all dash treatments all trimed in brushed aluminum. Vintage air, Auto Loc opening for the doors from your key fob, Accel electronic distributor and wires, B&M Pro ratcher shifter. On top of the engine sits a Weiland intake manifold and on top of that sits a Holly 4 barrel. Holly has also provided the electric fuel pump and regulator. The engine has a Comp cam, and Sanderson Street Rod Ceramic Headers, and timing gears made by Dynagear Inc. Under the truck, Eibach provides the springs, and I installed Edelbrock Air shocks in the rear for a nice ride. I have all the instruction books and such for all items mentioned so I know that they were installed on the truck. I have tried to be as exact and honest about this beautiful truck, but if you have any futher questions, I will be happy to try to answer them for you. You're thinking, why am I selling? I have owned this truck for almost 10 years, and haven't put over 300 miles on it. Truck is also for sale locally. Again, Thanks for your interest.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
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.
