For sale is my 1950 Chevy 3 window pickup. I purchased the vehicle in 2007 from California and have been restoring it slowly ever since. The truck has everything to be completed, it is just now all on right now. The only major things left to do is finish some bodywork and some of the interior.

BODY-The truck is rust free California bought. The door handles have been shaved and filled. Front cowl vent and side vent shaved and filled. Shaved drip rails around window. Outer window trim welded to make windows look like one piece and really clean. Shaved fuel filler. Check out the truck at creativerodandkustom.com and you will see what I was going for. Bear Claw latches installed on doors. Doors close and latch perfectly. Door poppers installed and were tested. Also has safety wire installed so you can pull on latch from outside if keys left in truck. Front fenders have been body worked, headlights frenched in with chrome ring, and primered. Only thing left to do is block and paint. Rear fenders are wider, I believe by two inches, and are fiberglass. Also have fiberglass running boards that go with the rear fenders. Bed sides are original. Stake pockets have been filled along with the end of the stake pockets at the rear. New front bed panel and rear tailgate with emblem installed. Tailgate has been custom welded to rear of bed for seamless look. Welding is complete and finish bodywork and paint needed to complete. New front bumper and grill. New headlights and marker lights. New exterior mirrors. New rear bumper from 1954 Chevy. This bumper has the "step" in the middle and I think looks better. Rear bumper has also been moved in approx. 3 inches so it fits closer to truck and gets rid of the farm truck look. Also has extended apron with LED tail lights. One light cut out and other needs trimming. Custom 7 piece wood bed kit with strips. Looks great and all boards are almost the same size, gets rid of the small boards in most kits. Wood kit cost around $400 and will just need staining. Aluminum gas tank moved under bed. Two hoods, one stock and one that has the two halves custom welded to make a one piece hood with no trim.

SUSPENSION- TCI Mustang II Crossmember welded in. It came with 2 inch lowered springs and disk brakes. I removed the front springs and set it up with Shockwaves in the front. I still have the lowered springs which will go with the truck. The disk brakes are power with the master cylinder and booster installed on the frame like original with gives more room in the engine bay. Rebuilt drum brakes on rear 10 bolt. 8.5 inch with 3.23 gearing. Power rack and pinion steering. Brand new front sway bar and all new upgraded bushings installed when front end installed. Everything is brand new. It has even had a front end alignment done. 4 link rear suspension with air bags. Crossmembers welded in. I have complete plug and play kit for the air bags. NOT INSTALLED YET. Have everything to install, air lines, fittings, digital air control gauge and manual gauge-you pick which to install.

ENGINE-Rebuilt 383 Chevy V8. I bought the engine from a builder in Arizona and installed it. The engine has tons of torque. New polished pulleys. Rebuilt 700R4 Automatic transmission. The overdrive is really nice to keep the RPM's down. Like driving a new truck with way more rumble. The firewall was cleaned up and years of useless holes were filled. Vintage Air condition kit installed. Is not charged at this time. Rebuilt radiator. I had a radiator guy build it a few years ago. He used an older heavy duty core. The entire thing was gone through with all new parts. He also installed a heavy duty transmission cooler in the radiator. He didn't care for the "Chinese copy" that I had installed that began to leak. He really knew his stuff and I bought in on it, around $700 for the set up. Also has custom bowtie emblem on top. All new hoses. Have electric and standard fuel pump, neither installed right now. Electric fan with thermostat. Air gap intake-endurashine, Edelbrock 750 with electric choke. Polished valve covers and cleaner. Coated headers with flowmaster mufflers. New driveline. Much more, only the best stuff used.

INTERIOR-New dash shell installed. Have new glovebox door and center piece. New Dolphin Speedo and four gauge for fuel, oil, temp, battery. New column tilt shifter. New door panels and headliner shell from Rod doors. I bought the kit a few years ago. The company went out of business, but you can still find pictures of the door panels on the web. They are made out of a hard plastic and will just need to be covered in the material the buyer will want. The headliner is made from fiberglass. Have all window stainless and headliner stainless. New ignition switch. Painless Wiring kit. Wiring kit is installed and ran. Wires going to back still needed to be connected to lights, gas tank, ect when everything is put back in. The stock seat frame was cut out and a bench seat from I believe a second row suburban was installed. I still have the stock bench, which will go with the truck. Both are in dark gray cloth in decent shape. One piece front windshield. New rubber seals for windows and doors. This is a three window truck. New wiper motor. New power window kit with aluminum switches. Other new things that will probably come to me after I post this.

15 Inch tires on it right now. Tires still have good tread and will last for awhile. I have most if not all of the parts to put this truck back together. I have boxes of new parts. All major things are included with truck. Small things like cigarette lighter or dome light may be needed. Please send me a message or call if you have a specific question or want to know about something I didn't list.

My loss is your gain. This is the opportunity for someone to take what has been started and turn this into a show truck or just put it back together and drive it as is. I really love this truck and I have invested a lot of money and time into it. I am selling it because when it was purchased, I thought it would be completed by now. At that time, it would have been for fine for me, my wife, and kid in car seat. It was a tight fit, but it worked for short trips. The kid is now in a booster seat and we added another in a baby seat. Unfortunately, it this was just for me it would be great.

I also know the value of these trucks and what I have in this one. I think the price is reasonable for what I have invested and what is needed to complete. I am only selling because I want to see this truck completed and it won't probably get done by me for awhile. No low ball offers please and only bid if you really want it. I can assist with shipping but it is the winning bidders responsibility to find a shipper. I could possible assist with shipping to someone who is in the local area. Call or email with additional questions. 360 451 4088

I also have another hood, painted yellow like the rest of the truck. Also have original grill and bumper.

GM to build outgoing Silverado and Sierra until late 2019

Tue, Nov 6 2018

As it has done with previous generations, General Motors is keeping the outgoing versions of its 1500 pickups in production despite the arrival of the all-new 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and 2019 GMC Sierra. The production of the previous, K2 generation models will begin to be wound down gradually, according to Automotive News, starting with crew cabs "early next year," and double and regular cab models following during "the early second half of next year." The old model trucks will continue to be built into "late 2019" based on market demand, GM's spokesperson Kim Carpenter said. The Chevrolet will go by the name Silverado LD, with the GMC Sierra designation still to be announced. Some of the outgoing models are built by sharing the assembly work between two GM plants. Partially finished Silverado and Sierra double cab bodies are shipped from Fort Wayne, Ind., to Oshawa, Ont., where the trucks are completed, including receiving paint. This eases the workload in Fort Wayne, where production of the new T1 generation trucks started in July 2018. In January, the Silao plant in Mexico will take on the duties of building new generation regular cab and crew cab trucks. Carpenter also said that the "Oshawa shuttle," as the shared production is called, has been very successful. As a result, 60,000 more trucks will be built than what the original production forecast initially called for. GM's latest quarterly profits, disclosed last week to be $1 billion, have been far higher than expected and will result in full-year profits far higher than what had been predicted in light of steel tariffs. GM isn't the only truck maker taking a similar multi-generation approach for 2019. Both the outgoing and redesigned Ram 1500 are in production, with the previous generation being dubbed Ram 1500 Classic. Related Video:

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

GM’s Charlie Wilson was right: Stronger regulations can help U.S. automakers

Fri, Oct 26 2018

Charlie Wilson had been the president and CEO of General Motors before being nominated to become secretary of defense by Dwight Eisenhower. During his Senate confirmation hearings, he controversially said, "For years I thought what was good for our country was good for General Motors, and vice versa." And he was right. While car companies aren't necessarily the most progressive when it comes to things that might have the slightest possibility of political blowback, General Motors should be credited for doing something absolutely forthright in this regard with its announcement that it wants the federal U.S. government not to squash the California Air Resources Board's emissions requirements but to actually create a 50-state "National Zero Emissions Vehicle" program that, in the words of Mark Reuss, executive vice president and president, Global Product Group and Cadillac, "will drive the scale and infrastructure investments needed to allow the U.S. to lead the way to a zero emission future." Filing comments to the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks is one thing. But a graphic the company developed for this announcement — shown above Â— is something else entirely, something that is absolutely credible, creative and clever. There is a photo of a Chevrolet Bolt EV driving along a highway, which seems to be in Marin County (based on the blurred San Francisco skyline in the background). Text on the photo states: "It's Time for American Leadership in Zero Emissions Vehicles." It seems to say, in effect, "If we want to make America great again, then we're going to do it by leading in technology, not by retreating behind weakened regulations." General Motors understands that the auto market is globally competitive, and if U.S.-based companies are going to be in the game, then they'd better be able to out-innovate the companies based elsewhere, where emissions and economy standards are not being weakened. What's good for our country ... Related Video:
