Fantastic in every way, my 1972 Chevy is sure to delights it's next owner. This truck looks fantastic, drives beautifully, and sounds incredible. It has approximately 2,000 miles on it since a complete overhaul and engine rebuild, including transmission and four wheel drive transfer case. The odometer reads 7,800 or so, but I don't know the exact original mileage. Neither does the previous owner but based on its condition, we don't feel this is a very high mileage truck. I honestly don't believe it only has 7,800 miles on it. Great looking paint (less than two years old) and tons of new chrome. Very very straight and very very solid and clean, including underneath. The truck has been lifted, and sports Goodrich 33's on chrome rims. Ceramic headers and dual Flowmasters give the truck an incredible throaty sound to the original 350 V8 that was completely rebuilt. This truck will go down the highway at 75 with ease. A real head turner and still a daily driver if you want it to be. I live five miles from work and drive it work most days during the summer. I have my eye on something else so this one must go. She is not a trailer queen, and has a few minor blemishes, but overall an excellent looking truck and a reliable vehicle. Everything looks and works true to the original chevy specs. This is one beautiful machine. 

  • Newer paint

  • Rebuilt transfer case
  • Newer BF Goodrich all terrain tires
  • Rancho shocks, shimmy damper
  • Headers
  • Dual Flowmasters, stainless exhaust, chrome tips on both sides
  • New front inner fenders
  • Rebuilt heater core, works excellent
  • New battery
  • All gauges work accurately
  • Stainless rear bumper with heavy duty frame hitch
  • 2nd gas tank in wheel well
  • Metal bed with spray in liner
  • New chrome step bars
  • AM/FM period radio with kick panel speakers
  • All new door and window seals
  • Diamond plate bed rails(4)
  • Chrome fender arches
  • Reupholstered interior - looks new
Now the cons; the horn isn't wired. It's there and works but it's not wired. There's a couple of minor paint scratches, nothing you can see from a few feet but she does have a couple of nicks. Absolutely nothing significant that can't be easily touched up. The paint around the antenna has minor cracks, and a tiny bit of overspray on the rubber in one or two spots. The steering wheel is an original reproduction. The bed has a few dings and marks, again nothing significant. I installed a set of chrome door sills that need to come off again and get shaved down a few mills. I left them on but they make the doors a little harder to close. The rims have a little glazing here and there. They still look great, but they are showing signs of wear. I've never tried anything to clean them up as I think they're fine, but there's lots of options on the market for getting these back to new condition. 

Overall this is a sweet machine. I've thoroughly enjoyed it and get compliments on it everywhere I take it. Show it on a Saturday night and then taker her four-wheeling on Sunday. This is an incredibly fun truck to drive, to show, and to own. As an avid antique car/truck collector, I've noticed these trucks are appreciating nicely too.

Franchitti, Kanaan, and Dixon prank young IndyCar driver

Fri, May 22 2015

The 20-year-old Sage Karam is a rising star in racing after scoring the 2013 Indy Lights Championship and taking ninth place in the 2014 Indianapolis 500. He's now competing for Chip Ganasi Racing, one of the top teams in the IndyCar Series, and counts this year's pole sitter Scott Dixon and former winner Tony Kanaan as teammates. Of course, being so young and a new member of the squad, some lighthearted hazing is to be expected. Dixon, Kanaan, and three-time Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti decided to play a little prank on Karam. While ostensibly detailing his Chevrolet Camaro, the three joking racecar drivers turned it into the Karamo. Check out the video above to see exactly what that means. After some scary crashes going into this year's event, it's refreshing to watch some cheery things happening at Indy.

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair

Fri, Jul 10 2015

General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
