1955 Chevy Truck Short Bed Big Window Barn Find!! on 2040-cars
Thousand Oaks, California, United States
1955 Chevy 3100 SHORT BED BIG WINDOW DELUXE CAB!!
VERY RARE STAINLESS STEEL TRIM ON OUTSIDE OF CAB! You found it, the barn find you have been looking for! This is a ONE owner truck since it was bought new in Wildomar, CA. The original owner died in 1970 while in the beginning process of a restoration and installing a V8, he had removed the original engine and trans and was in the process of looking for a motor when he passed away, the truck has less than 67k original miles. His son transferred the truck into his name in June of 1970 (look at the pics of the title) and had it stored in a sealed container on the family property in Wildomar. Sometime in the 90's when they sold the property the truck was delivered to his home in Burbank, CA where it sat in his garage until 3/24/14 when I pulled it out. It is completely original and rust free (except for front bottom of cab both sides as shown in pics) with a clean solid frame and floors. The dash is in excellent condition and uncut. The rear cab corners were professionally changed out as seen in the pics before the owner died, they did an amazing job. All the rain gutters are clean and rust free as are the window seals. The truck seems to have one re-paint in that strange greenish gold color you see now, the original color from what I can tell seems to be red. All the glass is excellent. This truck has the VERY RARE deluxe cab with the stainless steel trim on the outside of the cab. The trim is all there and in excellent condition as can be seen in the pics. You can not find these trucks with the trim option much less with all the trim in this amazing condition. The original bench seat needs to be rebuilt but is all there and complete as seen in the pics. The original instrument cluster showing the original mileage is in perfect working order and fantastic condition. The truck also has all the original hood latch components and original radiator with support bar. Please feel free to call me anytime with questions. Thanks for looking and good luck!

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
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.
First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
