1985 Silverado Extended Cab Conversion Rare Squarebody on 2040-cars
Fort Mill, South Carolina, United States
|
Up for bid, is my 1985 Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab conversion! Have you ever seen one before? Now your thinking, "Chevrolet never made a Squarebody extended cab"! Well, that is correct. A conversion company named Custom Vehicles International in Arlington, Texas did most of the 2500 trucks done between 1983 and 1987. Another company did some also, but those did not look as good as these( it had a smaller side window). The price for the conversion in 1985 was $6000.00 over cost of the truck!! I bought this actual truck in Arkansas several years ago. It had been there since new, and 2 years ago I pulled it to South Carolina. This is still a PROJECT truck, with some work needing to be done to be a driver. Or you could build an AWESOME show truck, and you know there WON'T BE ANOTHER ONE AROUND!!!! To be driven, it will need new tires, a power brake booster installed (one is included), front brakes, Idler arm and some engine tuneing. This truck runs and drives, but is not roadworthy just yet. This truck has all the Silverado equiptment like power windows, power locks, tilt wheel, am/fm cass radio, a/c (all parts are there, but has no Freon ) and I installed a factory tach. The dash is perfect and the headliner is too. The bed floor is dented pretty good, because it was used as a ..... Truck. I hope someone buys this truck who will love it the way I did, I loved being different. This truck is DIFFERENT!

Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.
Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
