1953 Chevrolet 3100 5 Window Truck Pickup on 2040-cars
Marion, Ohio, United States
For sale is a 1953 Chevy Truck that I have been working on for qutie a while.
Truck has a 5.3L Chevy motor out of a 2006 truck, a matching 4l60E, and
with only 60,000 on the odometer. Brand new drive shaft built by Drive Line 1 out of Columbus, Ohio. Harness was bought from and tuned by
LSX4U.com out of Maine with the electronic throttle. Has a brand new
Tanks Inc. 16 gallon tank and sending unit, with a fuel pump to handle up to 600 hp, and
the supporting fuel regulator/filter from the corvettes. All fuel lines
and trans cooler line were ran with 6 A.N. line. 18x8 front and 18x9.5
rears Boss 338 Wheels, wrapped in Nitto Neo Gen tires. 10 bolt Non-Posi
Rear end with drum brakes. Front big 11.5" Disc brake kit with drilled
and slotted rotors. Mustang II front suspension from a mid 70's mustang.
New Champion 4 core radiator with 16 " fan and a built in trans cooler. Chassis mounted power brake
booster and master cylinder. 32" trans mount Lokar Shifter. Chrome tilt Column with
turn and hazards built in. Grant steering wheel. Manual steering rack
with borgenson joints and stainless steering shaft. New glass all the
way around except for in the doors. ( Do not have glass for those yet).
Frame has been POR-15 painted. Has a completely re-built seat with a
cream colored seat cover. Installed a full Ridetech air ride system.
This is not a cheap put together system, it was purchased directly from
Ridetech. The system has the dual compressors and large tank upgrade
along with the red billet valves. The mustang II Air-Ride set up is from
Ridetech also. The only thing not Ridetech is the rear bags. I used
larger Slam Specialties bags for a better ride. The truck still needs
Gauges, carpeted, doors put together, door glass bought, bed wood bought
and installed, and could use an alignment. I'm getting very busy and someone
else could finish this truck the way they would want too saving the
labor charges of me doing it. Ive got 100's of hours in fabrication and
install between the motor and air-ride. Asking 21,500 as is or will
finish with complete interior for 26,000. Thanks for looking.

On Jun-17-14 at 10:52:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I wanted the ground clearance so i didn't put the running boards on the ground. But if you would like too i have a step notch kit from gambino customs to go with it. As for the doors not being together, the ones that came with it were shot. I bought bare doors from kansas and they are 100% rust free. Just need new glass and everything else will need to be transferred over from original doors.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
