This 1970 step side underwent a frame off restoration 4 years ago. The builder was a gentleman in Georgia that built the truck for himself and spared no expense in doing so. He truly went all out on this build. A year and a half after building it he passed away and the truck sat for 2 years. It only has a little over 5000 miles on it since it was built. He put almost everything on this truck new. After purchasing it from his nephew I had the fluids changed and had the carb cleaned to be sure everything was good.
The truck is powered by a crate motor from GM Performance Parts. It is a 383 stroker with aluminum heads for 425 horsepower!! That is hooked to a 700r4, which was also bought from GM Performance Parts. It is set up perfectly. It shifts firm from first to second, then the other shifts are nice and smooth. It is running a positive traction rear end. I am not sure of the gear, but I would guess it to be a 3.55 or 3.42. It runs and drives awesome! Took it on a 9 hour trip and it performed great.
The interior has been all redone as well. The custom seat is a 40/20/40 split bench. The center part has a compartment under the seat and the rear folds down to give you 2 cupholders and an arm rest. The carpet is in excellent shape as is the door panels and the headliner. All of the gauges have been replaced with chevy bowtie gauges. All of them work perfect except the fuel gauge. It may have a ground issue. It works sometimes and doesn’t sometimes. It has a Lokar floor shifter as well as an IDIDIT chrome and tilt column. The Vintage Air AC unit works through the factory controls and blows cold. The kick panels are Custom Autosound with Pioneer 6.5” speakers built in. The only issue with the interior is the glove box door. The paint is peeling on the door only.
The exterior is in great shape. The body is straight and the paint is slick. All of the glass is in excellent shape. It has new new rear fenders. The marker lights are shaved. The gas tank has been moved to under the bed. The bed has all new wood and strips and shows perfectly. The wheels are a brand new set of Boss 338 with 17’s in the front and 18’s in the rear. They are rolling on brand new Nitto tires. It has LED tail lights. The panel just under the tailgate is about a 2” panel. That panel has 2 small places where the paint peeled after the truck was together, with the color what it is you have to look for it to find it. This is the only problem area on the paint. There is absolutely no rust in this truck!!
The underside is as clean as the top side. Again there is no rust on the underisde either. The rockers, cab corners, and floor braces are all perfect.
Under the hood is super clean. There is a lot of chrome accesories. There is a double electric fan setup that works off of a thermostat. There is a new 2 speed wiper motor. There is also new 18 circuit wire harness.
The truck is being sold on an open and clear Georgia title. It is being sold as is. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text 843-457-7564 or email at BionicABs@aol.com

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car
Thu, 14 Feb 2013It won't be long before we see the official, production-ready Chevrolet SS sedan (hint: it will be revealed this weekend). And to tide us over until all of the official details are released about the US-spec version, we have this: the Holden VF Commodore SS V show car, a performance-oriented brother to the Calais V that debuted earlier in the week.
What we really want to know about the SS V is what lies underhood, but General Motors' Australian arm is keeping that under wraps until the Chevy model breaks cover this weekend. Nevertheless, it's obvious that the SS V will be a serious performer, with all sorts of aggressive cues driving that home on the car's exterior. Take a look at those 20-inch billet aluminum wheels that hide big Brembo brake calipers up front, the sculpted hood and front fascia, the wide air intakes with LED running lights and the quad exhaust pipes out back. It's like the Pontiac G8 GXP never even left us.
Inside, there's a sporty-looking interior with aluminum accents that mix in with black leather and suede surfaces, all tied together in the middle with an eight-inch MyLink touchscreen infotainment system. It looks great, and again, while we don't know anything regarding powertrain details, it makes us oh-so happy to see a manual shifter smack dab in the middle of the center console.
