1946 Chevrolet hot rod /rat rod pickup with a clear Nebraska 1946 Chevrolet 1/2 ton title. This is a fresh build with no expense spared. This truck was built on a new 2X3 tubing frame with a new Speedway 4-link rear suspension with coil overs and a Speedway drop axle front end with hair pin radius rods. The brakes are all new and rebuilt. The front are new Speedway disc setup. The rear are stock 9-inch drums that have new wheel cylinders, new shoes, and all new hardware. It has a new master cylinder from Speedway with residual pressure valves on both front and rear with a proportioning valve and all new hard lines and new rubber lines so it stops on a dime. The tires are new Coker Classic 3 inch www. The engine is a 350 four bolt main block that has been gone thru, with a slightly larger cam for that hot rod sound and topped off with an aluminum intake, a new Edelbrock carb with electric choke, and an HEI distributor to make it a maintenance free daily driver. The transmission is a turbo 350 that has been gone thru and resealed so it shifts great. The rear axle is a GM 10 bolt out of a 79 trans am with 2.56 gears  - it will cruise down the highway no problem. It has new oil and was cleaned up, all brackets were removed and the new 4 link brackets were installed then it was finished in a black ceramic frame paint. The cab of the truck was chopped 3 inches, but was not channeled so the stock leg room was left intact. The roof of the truck was painted with a silver base then the gold lace and designs were applied along with the silver flake in the center panel. It received 4 coats of House of Colors Kandy Tangerine then two coats of orange pearl before the clear was applied. The bed is from a early 50s International pickup that was shortened and topped with a very nice cover wrapped in marine grade vinyl that will withstand the elements. The fuel tank is hidden under a hinged door and the ammo can in the bed holds the battery and a fuse panel. The taillights are 59 caddy the headlights are new from speedway. We retained enough of the original bed for that cooler so you can still bring your cold beer to those car shows. The radiator is a new BE Cool unit wrapped in an original model A shell. The interior is painted a tan color with a new fabricated bench seat, all new gauges, and a new B and M shifter. This is a very neat old truck that has only been shown once with very good reception from young and old alike. I'm sure I have forgotten a lot. if you have any Questions feel free to call me - Luke 3082580715.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.

2021 GMC Canyon trims overhauled, SL and SLT disappear

Sun, Feb 2 2020

Until this year, the GMC Canyon has offered six trims in two drivetrains: SL, a base model simply called Canyon, SLE, All Terrain, SLT, and Denali, with all but the SL available in either 2WD or 4WD. GM Authority credits "dealer sources" for news that the 2021 Canyon has had its trim steps overhauled. According to the chart in the report, the SL and SLT are no more, the base Canyon gets replaced by a trim called Elevation Standard, and SLE turns into Elevation. We already know that All Terrain has given way to AT4, while Denali remains in the top spot. Trim content doesn't change with the names, but there's no equivalent for the SLT trim in terms of spec. The GMC site lists the 2020 SLE and SLT on the same page, and a shopper must burrow into the spec comparison page to figure out the differences. The SLT only comes with the 3.6-liter V6 and eight-speed transmission, and makes features like remote start, climate control, heated mirrors, heated seats, hitch guidance, and a spare tire standard equipment. It also chromes the exterior door handles, and offers a Cocoa/Dune leather interior that can't be had on the SLE. It's possible the SLT's $4,700 premium over the SLE led more buyers to start with the SLE and add the engine and options they wanted.   We have a number of questions that we'll need to wait for GMC's official announcement to answer. The 2020 Canyon offers an Elevation Edition package for $650 that adds a black grille with body-colored surround, and 18-inch Satin Graphite wheels in all-terrain rubber. There's also a California Elevation Special Edition for $1,195 with all-weather floor liners, assist steps, and mud flaps. They could be optioned on the SLE but not the SLT. With the addition of two Elevation trims, we'll find out if the packages get renamed or go away. Separately, CarBuzz spotted a 2021 GM Fleet Order Guide that mentions a leveling kit option, LPO Code SQS, for the Canyon and the Chevrolet Colorado. We noted the inclusion of a leveling kit in the coming Canyon AT4 Off-Road Performance Package. According to the order guide, the option can be ordered only for the Canyon AT4 trim, but it's not clear if that's an a la carte choice or if buyers must order the Off-Road Performance Package. On the Chevy, the rake-removal equipment can be had with the Colorado 4x2 Z71 or the 4x4 Work Truck, LT, and Z71. Related Video:

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
