Up for sale is a rare 1959 GMC 1/2 ton 100 series truck - it is a hard-to-find short wheelbase with its original frame, but has a replacement 5 lug modern rear end w/ highway gears and a Chevy 350 V8 engine and what I think is a Turbo 350 or 400 automatic trans behind it. It is a rare custom cab model that came w/ all the chrome stuff and although not pictured I do have the chrome grill and front bumper that goes in it. It is also a rare big rear window truck and it has solid floorboards and steps with no holes if you can believe that. It does not appear to have any bondo in it, and except in the typically rotted cab corners. There is some rust in the front fenders, but has it has a great cab w/ real nice roof inside and out that is not rusted out above windshield or rear glass areas. There is no carb or radiator in the engine bay, so not sure what year it was last driven but the engine is free and should run if you monkey with it - I did pick up a GM quadrajet carb I can let go with it to help you get her going again. Hood is nice, bed is pretty nice etc - look at these pictures and see what you think. This truck was originally Aqua Blue and White but someone has sprayed it with black spray paint and I think someone replaced the doors many moons ago and they look to have been red maybe - so while its a little ugly, you need to look beyond the spray paint and see what it really is - a super cool and highly sought after truck that is more solid than a lot of 55-59's you will see in this price range and this one has the highly sought after big rear window and V8 automatic drivetrain. Automatic is shifted in the floor - this truck came from the factory a 3 speed I think. Will make somebody one heck of a rat rod or rot rod, etc....

Also has the rarer deluxe heater and no radio hole butchering - perfect dash. Has what looks to be a factory or dealer installed tachometer too. 

Call Steve at 256-486-1988 to ask questions - Come see or pick it up in Eva AL 35621.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
