This is a frame off 84 chevy 1/2 ton show truck. It was stripped down to bare frame and built up. There were no aftermarket panels used other than the hood. The previous owner bought donor trucks so he could use original rust free panels. The frame was stripped and zinc coated before it was painted to prevent rust. All the suspension,brakes and steering components were replaced. There was 13k tied up in the engine build alone. It is a 454 that was bored to a 468 with all forged internals,high lift cam,performance head work,aluminum intake,800 cfm edelbrock carb,long tube headers etc...  The transmission is a built 700r4 (overdrive) with a 2800 rpm performance stall. The rear is a custom built 12 bolt. The paint (not including labor) was over 7k. There is not a single dent or scratch that I have seen anywhere on the truck. It has American racing torque thrust rims. 17" rims in front 18" in rear. The 295/45/18 and 275/55/17 inch tires are like new. The truck sounds awesome with the choppy idle and has electric cut outs installed on the headers that gives you the option of running open exhaust with the flip of a switch. The interior was redone with custom leather seats with a fold down center console. IT has a custom A/C compressor that is built to handle the rpms of the engine and blows ice cold. Truck runs and drives like new and is VERY FAST. Pictures don't do this truck justice. There were no shortcuts or money spared in this build. There is only 1700 miles on the truck since restored and has won multiple trophies at car shows. Here is your chance at a good deal in a NO RESERVE AUCTION. If you have any questions feel free to message me. If you would like to see the truck in person message me. We are located in West Columbia TX about a hour south of Houston.  Bidders with less than 5 feedback should message me before bidding (so I know your serious) or I will remove the bid. Texas residence will have to pay tt&l. Thanks for looking and bid with confidence !! NO DISSAPOINTMENTS !!

500.00 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE AT END OF AUCTION

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living 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.

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
