I'm proud to unveil this incredible classic. This pickup was frame off restored in 2007 (photography included) with a mild freshening in late 2013. It has been garaged since restoration and driven every 5 to 8 weeks to compete in Arizona's classic auto and truck shows. 

It is equipped with a humming 425 horsepower / 355 c.i.d. V­8 which means 350 bored .030 over with Trick Flow aluminum heads, aluminum intake, Headman jet coated big tube headers, 4 barrel carburetor, MSD electronic ignition, 69 Z28 aluminum finned valve covers and chrome air cleaner. It is rated at 425 horse power that is delivered through a high performance Turbo 350 automatic transmission. Power steering and front disc brakes were added. The motor compartment is show quality with nice details and a polished A/C compressor. 

This truck also features a very solid, body with mirror-like DuPont paint, steel cowl hood, Super Sport inspired accent stripes, custom hidden latch tailgate, custom molded front/rear roll pans, and a beautiful oak bed.

The skid strips and hardware for the bed are stainless through out, including the fuel cell. The professionally lowered suspension rides on new chrome Coy C­5 wheels that are 18/20 inch combo with P235/55R18 up front and P295/45R20 out back. All new wiring includes, front, rear, engine, and dash harnesses. The most stunning feature is the full customized interior. Perfectly matching and custom made. A custom cut console, new seat belts, custom floor mats, custom door panels, wood steering wheel, Sony CD sound system, A/C, and a column mounted tachometer are great options. 

The chassis is nice and shows well. The aluminum exhaust exits through very tastefully done tips peaking out from under the custom rear valance. This short bed is a show stopper. Thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours were spent to bring you this fine truck. I spent close to two times the reserve price to make this truck the classic you see today. I hope you enjoy, let me know if you have any questions.

Shipping:
I will be more than happy to assist with shipping. From my experience, the cost is normally $1,100 to $2,000 to ship across the USA. It depends on your location and whether you would like your vehicle enclosed. Just let me know and I can contact carriers for a quote. If you have any questions, please message me.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
