This is a very special, very rare old chevy. Built in the Fremont Ca plant, it never left the area. More or less a one owner truck. Ca black/yellow original plates. Every single record kept from day one including 2 full mileage/repair journals. Straightest, most rust free example I have seen in decades, and the most loaded Custom I have ever seen without the big back window. Power steering, power brakes, Air conditioning, Automatic and V8! Exterior has amazing patina and so freakin' straight. It needs nothing. Interior is a mind blower. Really outstanding. Everything works exactly as it should, and effortlessly. A/C was updated with R134 and charged today. That's right, a/c is working in this truck and working well! I couldn't almost believe it as I drove back from the service center with the windows rolled up @ 70mph down the freeway. 103 degrees outside in Sacramento today and I was cool as a cucumber. This thing felt like I was driving a 2007, not a 1967. All the seals and felts in the cab are much newer and the cab is very tight. Original owner was a fanatic about maintenance, service. He passed away and his widow sold it to a neighbor. They used it as a light errands truck but ultimately it sat. It was always a garaged truck up until then. Truck runs like the motor is on steroids. Really gets up and moves, yet purrs at idle. Many components look new. Haven't sat down with the records yet, but I am sure they will reveal why the truck feels so fresh. Carb looks recent. Complete dual exhaust front to back is recent (and sounds fantastic). Block itself and trans both look much fresher than original condition. Trans shifts perfectly and precisely. neither motor nor trans leak (at least anything to the ground). Cooling system is working perfectly and without leaks. All lights, blinkers, gauges, radio, hazards, high and low beams, horn, steering, brakes, heat, etc. work without issue. Door glass rolls up and down smoothly. Wing windows open, shut and seal tightly. Shocks are new. Tires are newer with 95% plus tread. The bed is also quite amazing. The original owner had a shell on it from day one (pictures included in records) and thus it is preserved much nicer than most. Truck is really turn key and only a few simple steps from being your own personal show winning patina rod shop truck. Trucks this nice, are simply not out there anymore. This one needs none of the hard stuff, and only the fun stuff. You just gotta see, hear and drive this one in person to appreciate just how perfect for you it is!

10 of 18 midsize SUVs earn 'good' IIHS side impact safety rating
Wed, May 18 2022It's not terribly surprising that midsize SUVs earned better safety ratings than small SUVs in the latest side-impact tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Just how much better they scored, on the other hand, certainly raises an eyebrow. Ten out of 18 midsize SUVs earned the highest rating of 'good' in the stringent new test, altered for vehicles starting with the 2020 model year with a heavier barrier (4,200 pounds) that moves at a higher speed (37 miles per hour) and is fitted with a hard honeycomb frontal structure. By way of contrast, just one out of of 20 small SUVs earned a 'good' score. SUVs that receiving 'good' scores were the Ford Explorer, Infiniti QX60, Lincoln Aviator, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Pathfinder, Subaru Ascent, Toyota Highlander, Volkswagen Atlas, Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Volkswagen ID.4. For EV fans, it's worth noting the ID.4 was the only electric vehicle included in the test. The Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse scraped away with 'acceptable' ratings while the Honda Passport, Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade, Jeep Wrangler 4-door, Kia Telluride and Nissan Murano were deemed merely 'marginal' in the tough new test. Only two models — the Mazda CX-9 and Volkswagen ID.4 — earned a "Good" rating in every test category. Interestingly, the Jeep Wrangler would have scored a 'good' rating if it were equipped with side airbags for the rear seating positions. It would likely be an engineering challenge to equip its removable top and/or doors with airbags, but the lack of that safety feature allowed the head of the rear passenger dummy to hit the vertical support of the top. Otherwise, the Wrangler scored good ratings across the board. The new Ford Bronco, which makes more allowances for side-impact safety, has not yet been tested. The popular Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride SUVs stand out in the test with 'poor' ratings for driver pelvis injuries. The Nissan Murano, a vehicle last redesigned for the 2015 model year, was the only vehicle tested that received a 'poor' rating for its structure and safety cage. Videos of the tests of 12 of these 18 SUVs can be found on the IIHS' YouTube page.

Leno drives Ringbrothers' latest, 1966 Chevy Chevelle Recoil
Tue, Mar 3 2015Jay Leno has been checking out quite a few older rides in his garage as of late, but has mixed things up a little this week. Ringbrothers took home an award at the 2014 SEMA Show for the 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle it named Recoil, and now the car has proven it can do more than just look good on Jay Leno's Garage. While the latest guest might look vintage, underneath those classic lines is a thoroughly modern muscle car sporting a claimed 980 horsepower. The heart of this beast is a supercharged LS7 V8 from Wegner Motorsports and a six-speed Tremec manual gearbox. Even with so much power, it can still run on 91-octane pump gas, and when Jay gets on the throttle the result is a wall of sound from the wailing supercharger. Despite the muscle, the Recoil doesn't really scream about its performance aesthetically. The color is a surprisingly plain beige, but the carbon fiber touches and side exhaust certainly indicate that there's something special here. The owner's sole request for the car was to include metal seats, and Ringbrothers provided them with a few bits of leather offering a touch of comfort. After checking the Recoil out from stem to stern, Leno finally gets behind the wheel and treats our ears to pull after pull from that big, supercharged V8.
