1940 Chevrolet Hot Rod Shop Truck! This truck is all steel! It is powered by a SBC 305 with 2 barrel carb, 350 turbo transmission. The truck has been custom fitted to a 1986 Toyota truck frame. No cutting or mods had to be done to the frame for this swap(has same wheel base as 40 chevy). Motor mounts and body and bed mounts welded to frame was all that was needed. Then body placed on rubber pads to eliminate squeeks. Frame is factory boxed so it is super strong and makes for a better handling and riding truck. So all the luxury of late model with old school style. Truck comes with front disc brakes (whole braking system is Toyota, even E-brake), power steering. It has a new Bell Tech drop spindles, new front rotors and pads, new shocks all around. Rides and drives great! It has new column with tilt wheel and a new wood steering wheel. It is completed with Borgeson u joints with a double D steering shaft. Truck has all new wiring harness (American Auto Wire). New aluminum radiator with transmission cooler, new Lokar radical shifter and linkage. It also has all new Dolphin gauges with aluminum gauge housing. All the gauges are wired and working. Truck cab has been insulated with heat shield and has new carpet installed along with lap belts. It sits on new chrome reverse wheels and new tires. 15" wide wheels on rear and 7 1/2 wide on the front. The bolt pattern is 5 on 4 1/2 so wheel style is endless. Truck is painted in Hot Rod Flatz black. The body is in excellent condition but NOT show condition. That was not the intent but still very nice. The truck has no air or heat installed but not a problem to put on with an under dash unit if that is your desire. The truck is a real looker. Driver dependability. Selling because I just don't get to use it as much as I would like. Has brand new back glass installed with new weather strip. Windshield glass and door glass are new as well. Rear fenders are from a 1947-54 Chevy Truck. They seem to match the fullness of th front fenders better.
Thank you!

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
