This is a very Rare 1956 GMC Suburban Carrier Gmc's version of the Cameo It was a Factory V/8 with the hydra-matic transmission. the truck was taken apart and was being restored about 30 years ago but the owner passed on. I bought it from the family about 3 years ago 4th pic is how I got the truck,but did not have the room to keep it and had to sell. It came up 4-sale a few months ago and I was able to buy it back.it was still the same as when I frist got it. I assembled the bed and put it on the truck so buyer's could see what it really is. The inside of the truck was painted and still has some of the tape on it from 30yrs ago. the wiring is all still intact and what appears to be missing on the dash is just pushed back from when it was painted. it also has the rare clock.There is some rust on the inside of both the lower hinge pockets and the bottom of the drivers door, the driver step may need to be replaced. there is also rust on the inner bed sides under the fiberglass and where the angle strips attach.aslo both of the front fenders have a spot on the top of the fender see pic. The fiberglass side are nice. Parts that I know are missing The motor, automatic trans is here, door glass, tailgate recoilers and cables, spare tire well, bumperetts. Two of the front bed peices of mouldings are broke but I think they can be repaired. Bed top rails are here and also the peice that is not on the lower bed front.Truck also comes with some generic parts not shown in pics [gas tank,door hardware,cab stainless] some of the parts that are with the truck need to be fixed or replaced they are just what came with the truck. I will not sell parts! This GMC is a very good start I have tried to discribe this truck so buyer's would know what they are getting Please ask questions before bidding. $500.00 non-refundable deposit due at end of auction buyer to arrange and pay all shipping. truck will not be released till all funds have cleared.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
