 You are looking at a very very nice 1953 Chevy Pickup. Fully restored and beautiful. This truck get compliments everywhere you go! The truck has been sub-framed with a 1979 Trans-am, it has a 350ci 5.7L Chevy Crate motor in it with a T-400 Transmission. It is geared for the highway, she cruises at 70 mph wonderfully! The truck sits on an Air-Ride air bag suspension system on all 4 corners. One compressor and two tanks for the front and the rear. Pressure guages are mounted in the dash. The switch controller is cable mounted and comes through the seat. (see pics) It has power brakes with discs in the front. Power steering. Power windows. Dolphin Gauges in the dash. 20" Boss wheels, grey in the center with polished lip. Wheels are staggered with Michelin Pilot Sport tires. 255 in the front and 275 in the rear. All the door handles and chains for tailgate and badges have been shaved. It has custom stained glass corner windows but I have the clear windows to include in the sale. New wood in the bed, with chrome trim pieces. Power wipers and windshield washing fluid. The battery is in the floor board under a cover and some dynomat and carpet, flips up and has a master kill switch, like in a boat.


 The restoration is 3-4 years old, it has done about 2,200 miles since completion. The truck runs and drives amazing. Always starts right up. Stays cool even when its hot out, the temp gauge stays solid at 180 degrees. Air ride is great on the highway. The truck looks amazing! There are a couple small cracks in the paint. One on the hood and then on the bed rails. I included pictures. Its hard to see even in person on the bed rails. The framework is very well done!

*The passenger door is popped in the low angle rear quarter shot. You can tell in the other pics that it closes tightly.

Shipping will be up to the buyer but I will be more than happy to help get quotes from the company I work with on a regular basis.

 Payment will be cashiers check or cash and need to be delivered in full within 7 days of auction end. A deposit of $250 will be required through paypal within 24 hours.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.
