1955 chevrolet pick up, frame off restoration, numerous custom features. The body was lifted off the frame, two small patch panels welded in the lower rear cab area, but all other body and frame components were solid and straight. This truck is now rust free. The engine is a rebuilt smallblock 305 ci, the transmission is a Saginaw 4 speed manual, and the rear end has been updated with Tom's axles. The gears are perfect for the highway, and the motor tachs 2800 rpm at 70 mph. The bed wood is original, cracked and worn, but very solid. For a better appearance, I installed a rubber bed mat, which looks great with the matte black paint. The interior is all custom, with embroidering on the door panels and seat. The carpet covers the lower door panels and floor, and a new headliner. Unlike most older trucks, the door steps are not rusted out, and they are in pristine condition, just like the rest of the truck. The dash has new white-faced Autometer guages for Fuel, Volts, Temp, digital oil pressure, and tachometer. The truck has power steering and power brakes. The firewall is smoothed and finished, with all holes filled and the wiring hidden. The truck has been rewired completely, with all original wiring replaced with new wiring. This truck is loaded with new parts, including battery, starter, alternator, MSD electronic distributor, 8mm wires and MSD coil, new brakes, new front wheel bearings, tie rod, tie rod ends and other steering components. All window cranks, door handles (both inside and outside) are new, as are both side mirrors. All window glass is in excellent condition, and windows work perfectly. A custom stereo system is concealed behind a small door in the dash, which accesses a Kenwood stereo with CD, and is Sirius/MP3 ready. This truck is a real head-turner, and gets attention wherever it goes. The exhaust system is custom 2 1/2 inch pipe, with Hooker headers and Hooker mufflers, which give a very mellow and pleasing sound. For further info, or questions, please call Phil at 760-470-1317.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
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.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
