C-10 1967 Chevrolet Short-Wide Pickup

This truck has just undergone a thorough restoration at Rob’s Rods and Restorations in Austin, TX. The cab and bed were removed from the frame, and the frame was sanded and painted. The body panels were mostly taken down to bare metal, straightened beautifully, and finished in basecoat/clearcoat. The entire interior is brand new and features a custom two-tone seat, new headliner, carpet (on the floor and covering the fuel tank behind the seat), Lokar custom shifter, dash, steering wheel, and classic style radio with ipod/aux input. The truck is lowered front and rear, giving it the right stance. Nearly everything has been gone through or replaced, and there are pictures and a big folder of receipts to document it. The list of new items is too long to post here. This truck is solid and rust-free.  It looks good and sounds good, and the pictures speak for themselves.

This truck runs very strong. It features an angle-bored 350, new Edelbrock 750cfm 4-barrel carb with electric choke, Performer RPM intake, 2.02 camel hump heads with roller rockers, Lunati 494 cam, Mallory uni-lite distributor, hooker super comp headers, flowmasters with stainless tips, polished aluminum valve covers, power steering, later model power disc brakes, 4-core radiator, 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission with shift kit, trans cooler, auburn 3.73 posi rear end, front and rear sway bars, custom Lokar shifter, and vintage style autometer tach to count the revs. It will cruise at 2200 rpm at 70mph, and it will get there quickly.

The professional paint job was finished in a Fiat “Avorrio Chiarro” ivory/cream color that looks great. It shows hints of white, ivory, and a hint of banana yellow depending on the light. It’s understated and classy, and very sharp.

The wheels are smoothie style chrome rims, 8” wide in front and 10” wide in back. The front tires are nearly new, and the rears have about 30-40% tread. The p295 tires out back look tough.

Everything works on this truck with the exception of the ammeter and the original coolant temp gauge. The temp gauge is new, but not hooked to an original style sensor.  The wiring on the truck has been upgraded with a more modern blade-style fuse box.

The paint and body work is very nice and straight with very few imperfections, but it does have a couple of touch-ups. Bumpers are not show quality, but look nice. Please review the pictures.

The truck just had an oil change with 10w30 synthetic, has new trans fluid and coolant, and is ready for the road.

I ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME LOOK AT THE TRUCK AND TAKE A TEST DRIVE.

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.

LG Chem ready to double workforce at plant that makes Volt batteries

Fri, May 15 2015

With a history that involves paying people not to work, the fact that LG Chem is going to hire more people for its electric-vehicle battery plant in Holland, Michigan is good news on a couple fronts for the Korean company. The South Korea-based LG Chem is holding a job fair at the factory about 30 miles west of Grand Rapids. The company wants to double its workforce this year to "several hundred people." LG Chem, whose factory notably makes the cells for General Motors' Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric vehicle battery, is looking for everything from technical operators to maintenance workers to production supervisors. The company held a previous job fair last September that resulted in about 40 people being hired. The prior year, though, LG Chem gained a measure of infamy after the US Department of Energy (DOE) discovered that workers were, for a time, getting paid to do absolutely nothing because low demand for battery packs made it cheaper for the factory to remain idle. With LG Chem also making electric-vehicle battery components for Ford, Renault, Hyundai, and Volvo, though, those lazy days appear to be long gone. Take a look at LG Chem's press release below. Show full PR text LG Chem Michigan Inc. 2nd Job Fair Will Help To Double Its Holland Workforce HOLLAND, Mich., May 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Chem Michigan Inc. (LGCMI) is conducting a 2nd job fair on Thursday, May 14 as part of the company's efforts to double the size of its production workforce in 2015. LGCMI is an air-conditioned, clean room production environment with strong opportunity for career growth. Over 250 people attended the first job fair and the company is looking for more people to help it grow with increased production volume and new models. The company is adding production equipment and new processes and expects to employ several hundred people by the end of the year. Globally, LG Chem has numerous automakers as clients for EV batteries including GM, Ford, Renault, Hyundai/Kia, Volvo, Audi and Daimler etc. The company's push to build its workforce continues on Thursday, May 14 with an all-day job fair at the company's facilities, located at 1 LG Way in Holland. The event will take place from 9:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. and is open to everyone seeking employment opportunities with the company. Prospective candidates should plan to meet with members of LGCMI's staff to learn more about opportunities available at this market-leading, advanced-technology manufacturing company.
