What you are bidding on is a 1949 Chevy 5 window Pickup Truck with disc brakes, power steering, 4 speed transmission and a 383 stroker motor that not only looks cool but also drives like a beast. This truck has more power than I know what to do with. I will do my best to describe this truck and please feel free to contact me at anytime for questions regarding the truck.
Interior:
The interior of the truck is mostly new. It has new custom black door panels, new custom black headliner, new black carpet with sound deadening material, etc. Also, new door glass and new windshield glass. The rear cab windows are original. The seats are all power seats taken from a BMW and I believe they have more than 7 different power mechanisms that make it pretty comfortable to sit in. The seats have little wear on the driverside, however no rips or tear and still very comfortable. The dash is intact and is not all cut up. It is still in very nice shape. The heater and dash lights do work. The speedometer does not work, however it has a pretty cool four gauge set up as you can see in the pics. Also the gas, brake and clutch pedals are really cool looking for the style of truck. The heater also works quite well.
Powertrain:
The motor is a very strong running 383 stroker motor with a four barrel Holly carb. The motor has less than 2K miles. It has a lot of power and quick response. The truck also has a very good/strong 4 speed transmission. The clutch is still very strong and has a lot of life. The exhaust is all new and it sounds very good and turns a lot of heads. With power steering and disc brakes this truck is a blast to drive. It also has electric fans and all the lights work. It has a Ford 9" rear end that is very strong.
Body:
The body is painted in satin black (aka Matte Black). The body is pretty straight and it has a great look. I wanted the same look as the truck that was in the First Expendables Movie (I know that was a Ford truck but it still looked really cool). The body may not be perfect but it is still in very good shape. This truck is a great California truck so no rust issues. The bed is a new oak bed with new chrome bed strips. The under side of the truck is in great shape as well and the floors are solid. The battery has been relocated to the underside of the truck and the engine bay is very clean. The rims are American Racing Torque Thrust II 17" rims with beefy tires. The rims and tires are in great shape as well.
I do hold the title and it is clear and registered currently. This is a California Truck. I also do reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Please feel free to contact me at 916-262-6971 via text or telephone call if you have any further questions or follow up. My reserve for this truck is low compared to how much money I have invested.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
