Super straight southern pickup truck. If you are looking for a turn key ride, that's not full of body filler, and is a beautiful driver, this is the truck. It is a 1971 model, and it is not perfect, but it is a really nice solid truck. Floor pans look to be original and are solid with no rust. Had a Body Shop manager look this truck over from top to bottom. He found no body filler, but did say that the rockers had been replaced, and the doors looked like they have been skinned. He found no work done to the bed. The dash pad has a few cracks, but is presentable. The seat has been recovered and looks very well done. The heater controls and the heater core and the heater blower motor have been removed. And there are aftermarket gauges and a switch panel installed to control the necessary functions of the truck. Interior door panels are aftermarket, but again was very well done. Very nice carpet. Now the drive train. The engine came out of a 56 Chevrolet my friend is restoring. The block has been milled sometime in its life and the engine code is very hard to read, but with a magnifying glass, I found what looks to be RQ, which match's the casting number years for a 1964 8 cylinder 327. Motors breakdown for the engine is RQ /1964/8-327-w-M/T-A/C-HPE. But I in no way guarantee that is what the engine is. But I have built, raced and enjoyed many small block Chevrolet engines. It has a hydraulic mid-range camshaft that has that really cool idle and sounds like your buddy's L79. And I'm sure this engine has been balanced. Has that radical sound and does not shake or vibrate. The engine has an Edelbrock Manifold and Carb. The mileage on the truck or engine is unknown, but it does smoke, shuts off tight, and runs like a scalded dog. Clutch is tight and does not slip.The transmission is a M20 Muncie 4 speed with a Hurst Shifter and is quite as a church mouse. Rear differential has 4:11 gears. The installation of the driveline is not all monkeyed up, and is very well done, with new motor and transmission mounts. The exhaust is Rams horn manifolds and goes through flowmaster mufflers and sounds really good. If you decide to put the interior back to the original look, most of the parts needed are brand new and come to with the truck. The heater controls, the ignition switch, the dome light, dash and dash bezel, wiper arms and blades, antenna, etc. , see pictures. If you wanted to put the heater box, heater core, and blower motor back in the truck, it can be done easily. The firewall just has plates blocking the holes. Remove the plates and reinstall the parts. This truck drives like a new 1971, handles nice, doesn't wonder, rides like it did in 1971. Now down to the important part. Ask questions, come and see the truck. I'm selling this truck for a friend. If you are the winning bidder, be prepared to pay for it with in 10 days of auction end. And the truck is being sold AS-IS, I have described it as honestly as I can. You can message me through eBay and I will get back to you as quickly as I can. Thanks for looking.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
