1949 Chevy Truck Shortbed. V8 Ps Pb Automatic 5 Window Cab on 2040-cars
Umatilla, Florida, United States
|
1949 Chevy truck. Shortbed 3100 on a 1994 Silverado Frame. Truck has power steering, tilt column, power brakes, front disc brakes. New shocks, 350 chevy engine with Holley 600 four barrell carb. Steel headers and dual exhaust ran to the rear of the cab with two thrush mufflers. This truck runs and drives great. The frame and drivetrain came out of a silverado with less than 80k miles on it. Runs like a bear! Has new aluminum radiator with electric fan. AC compressor is still on the engine for anyone who wants to add air. The frame swap was done right. As you can see in the pics, the truck has a ton of new parts. Im not going to go through and make a list. Has all new glass and rubbers, upgraded to electric windshield wiper motor. Has bi-xenon headlights. All the lights work including turn signals. Seat is newly recovered with genuine leather The dash has been customized to fit a kenwood dvd/ navigation stereo. It is not currently installed or included. Rear speakers are wired and installed. I can include and install the stereo/gps for an additional $550 if the buyer choses to do so. Paint is only a few months old. Color is House of Kolor Tangelo Pearl. Its a great looking paint job, but it is not show quality or flawless. Bed rails and bed floor are stained and varnished oak. Wheels are 15 inch with new tires. Has new gauges that are all operational including electronic speedometer. I have only put a few miles on the truck as of today, but I will be driving it all week to work out any possible small problems like squeaks or rattles. Right now the truck needs a few minor details to be taken care of including front end alignment, carb adjustment (new), and some detailing. Any questions, call me at 570-299-1755. Truck has a clear 1949 FL title in my name ready for transfer. I would consider a partial trade on a 1930-1954 chevy truck project with cash. Nothing else. This is a big boy toy, so check with your wife, your mother, your dog, or whoever you need to before you bid. Call me with any reasonable offers, but dont call me to ask how much I want.
I can help arrange transport if needed. My pics were taken while the truck was still a little dusty and dirty. I will get more on during the auction On Apr-22-14 at 13:00:00 PDT, seller added the following information: I added a few more pics now that the truck is clean. Had a front end alignment done today and drove it around to get a few more miles on it. Ive had a ton of questions about the truck. The frame is a complete frame swap. Not a partial clip. Its a full size shortbed 94 silverado under the 49 body. It drives just like a 94 silverado. It drives great. It needs a few small things to be complete. Nothing major. It needs carpet. Right now the floor is sprayed with truck bedliner and mostly covered with sound deadening material as you can see in the pics. The drivers window rolls up and down but it needs adjustment, or a new regulator. It works but its a little grumpy. I have a few people coming by for test drives tomorrow and Thurs. I will likely have the truck at the Good Guys show in Kissimmee FL on friday or saturday. |

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
