Just finished fresh rebuild on this cool looking 51 Chevy. Started with front end and cab, everything else is new or rebuilt. It took eight months to build and  turns heads every time you take it out.

I'm going to start from the ground up so I won't forget anything.

Frame is rust free - no patches or welds. Truck has new brake lines, new brake shoes, drums turned, and new springs and hardware. Also new wheel cylinders and master was rebuilt, brakes work great.

She has a 68 Camaro 12 bolt rear end (corporate). Drive shaft is new as are the u-joints. New Monroe shocks front and back.

Engine is 70 chevy 307 completely rebuilt with less than 100 miles on it.  New rings, heads rebuilt, new oil pump, has Chevrolet L-79 camshaft (same lift and duration) cam is Mellings . Intake is Edelbrock performer with an 1850 Holley 4-barrel (600cfm). New flex fan, water pump, fuel pump, starter, new points and condenser, new plug wires, new spark plugs, new motor mounts, and new air cleaner. Also all fuel, radiator, and heater hoses as well as trans. cooling lines are new.

Original radiator has been cleaned and restored and runs around 190 degrees with a 180 thermostat. Also has new transmission cooler.

Transmission is newly rebuilt turbo 350 with less than 100 miles on it. Also has new flywheel and torque converter.

Shifter is brand new Lokar with the tall handle.

New engine-to-frame mounts from Classic Truck  welded and bolted with new trans. mounts also.

Seat is completely rebuilt original with new material, padding and cover.

truck has original dash with new gauges and original speedo. New door panels and glove box.

New aftermarket heater and defroster and new 2 speed electric windshield wiper motor with new blades. Also has turn signals.

Truck has all new wiring harness and 12 circuit fuse box. Lights have been replaced and parking lights and tail lights have been converted to turn and brake.

New battery and new one wire alternator. She is now an all new 12 volt truck.

This is a rust free truck. Front and back fenders are original as is the grill, bumper, splash pan, radiator support and inner fender wells. Cab is all original with 1952 doors.  There are 2 or 3 Quarter size areas of light filler in doors for door dings, the rest of this truck is steel. We welded some splits in the rear fenders where they mount to the bed but we left all the dents in the rest.

The bed is mostly new as we didn't have one to start with. Cab end, both sides, wood, wood strips, and all cross sills are new, tailgate is original with new hinges.

Chevy steel wheels with baby moon hubcaps with new tires.

All new exhaust with side pipes.

She has all new glass and weather stripping- none around DS door.

Newly sealed gas tank with new steel line.

I don't care for the way these trucks look with the hood on them. However I have a hood with all the trim and hinges and springs that will go with the truck if the buyer so desires. Also have original sun visor if interested.

As you can see this is a very nice truck, lots of new with lots of original, lots of time and money invested. This truck turns heads whenever it gets out on the street. I wanted the rat look with the dependability of a solid truck that was sound mechanically.

Paint is Kustom Shop Hot rod Flatz. Single stage Urethane. Bed wood has three coats of truck bed liner on both sides

Also has new outside door handles and rear view mirror.

Need to sell this truck to fund future projects.  The reserve set is reasonable for what this truck is.  Email for any questions you may have.  Thank you for your interest in this truck, it really is nice and fun to drive.

2020 Chevy and GMC HD truck spy shots reveal LED lighting

Mon, Aug 20 2018

With Chevy and GMC's 1500 series pickups just starting to roll into dealerships, our attention naturally turns to the Heavy Duty 2500 and 3500 series trucks. We've seen these HD trucks testing already, but thes latest spy photos give us our first good glimpse of the two HD trucks' headlights through some translucent camouflage, and their designs appear very interesting and quite different from each other. The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado HD looks to be getting a striking set of LED lights that flank the grille. A previously released teaser image of the truck shows that the front lighting elements are split by a bulky wing that branches out from a big, upright chrome face, and both top and bottom units seem to incorporate LED slashes. If you look closely at the images, you can easily make out the Chevrolet script cut into the grille's top edge. Amidst a bevy of Chevy test trucks was one lone GMC model in a dually configuration, and the Sierra HD also appears to have some LED accent lighting up front. Unlike the boomerang-shaped Chevy LEDs, GMC's version sports a shoulder-like right angle of light bars. Assuming these are production-level lighting units, it seems the Sierra HD will stick pretty close to the face of GMC's latest light-duty pickup truck. We're still waiting for confirmation on what range of powertrains will be available in GM's next-gen HD trucks, but we're sure there will be both gasoline- and diesel-burning engines on the ordering sheet. We expect to hear official details on the trucks sometime soon.

Best 3rd Row SUVs of 2024

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices.  OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must.   In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover |  Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV |  Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.
