1968 chevy pickup c-10.
This a shortbed truck built by Dallas performance originally. It has a 6.0 LQ9 motor and wiring harness out of 2005 cadillac escalade. It has a 6 speed transmission with pistol grip shifter and it runs and drives better than you can imagine. Its a daily driver, cruiser and street fighter. The motor is fuel injected and has a computer that you can take to any dealership for servicing. There's a ton to list on this truck. Air ride technologies suspension, 4.11 positrac rear end, custom fuel lines and pump with tank in bed professionally done. At the time it was built it took on all on comers. It was a shop truck that could run with the best--and it still does. Horsepower on dyno was 468 to the tires which means motor makes 538 horsepower-did I meantion its built and the motor makes 730 on the nitrous, 650 to the tire. Well It not hooked up and I have never run it but it was built for it and it really doesn't need it- it pulls hard all the way through powerband. I have a new z06 and I think it would be close race. @@@@NO 350 cubic inch carburated motor and 350 automatic transmission like everyone else )-OH NOOO. !!! This is different. Camaro new style electric seats with air conditioning or heat for long hour long cruises. Lots of custom work to body, no gas cap, no metal drip rails, no lights in fenders, grill is a little custom and the truck just works incredible. It sounds incredible, Probably the best sounding truck or car I have ever owned, THERE will be no disappointments. This truck needs a new home, I have had it 8 years and had it to alot of shows and its a super fun truck, It needs someone who can put a custom wood bed in and do alittle bit of work to the body. It has no rust but it would be a good weekend project for a father son, or guy who likes to trick out cars, I use the bed for hauling some stuff around and the bed wood needs some work. I am going to try to download on you tube the truck but Not sure. THERE IS NOT ANOTHER TRUCK LIKE THIS AND NEVER WILL AGAIN. This truck is not a trailer queen and its not original, Its a 32,000 build thats going probably for half price. This truck will run state to state without problems so if you buy it you can drive it home. You can run it to oklahoma city and take on the farm truck if you want. I think it would be a good race. Thanks, Send me your questions and happy bidding. On Jul-03-14 at 21:26:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Transmission is T-56 6 speed. It has a mcleod lightweight flywheel with a spec clutch.

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.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
