HAVE YOU BEEN SEARCHING FOR A HIGH QUALITY, INVESTMENT GRADE, SHOW-STOPPING 1950's CHEVROLET PICK-UP TRUCK THAT YOU CAN ALSO DRIVE AND ENJOY IN COMFORT? WOULD YOU LIKE IT TO HAVE ICE COLD AIR-CONDITIONING, POWER STEERING, POWER 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES, POWER WINDOWS AND A KILLER STEREO SYSTEM? DO YOU WANT SOMETHING THAT PUTS DOWN SOME SERIOUS HORSE POWER YET CAN BE DRIVEN ANYWHERE? WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR TRUCK TO STAND OUT FROM THE REST WITH SOME GREAT CUSTOM FEATURES?? If you answered yes to some or all of the above then this beautiful, Fully Restored '55 Chevy 3100 might be the one you have been waiting for!! We acquired this awesome '55 Chevy 3100 Hot Rod from a gentleman who we have purchased 5 other high end cars from. He is a true Car Guy who gets his pleasure more from the build and initial unveiling then he does from long term ownership. He has limited space so he loves to move on to the next toy shortly after having fun with one. Each one of the cars we have purchased from him have been extremely high quality and this Galaxy Silver 3100 Big Window Pick-Up is no exception!!! This truck had just come off a very high end restoration in late 2012 when he located it. The truck was finished but he loves to take his Hot Rods to the next level as he did with this truck. There are under 1000 miles since the restoration and under 500 miles on the current 450 horsepower 383 Stroker motor. As you will see in the pic below we also bought a gorgeous '55 Chevy Bel Air that we will be listing for sale soon. I will do my best to provide enough large images, a video of the actual dyno test of the 383 Stroker motor, a video so you can hear this truck start up and running, a final walk around video, and an honest description to help you decide if this awesome '55 belongs in your garage! Sit back and enjoy!! The all steel body on this '55 looks fantastic! Body and paint were done in late 2012 and the color is called Galaxy Silver. I think that the paint actually looks better in person then it shows up in the pictures. Body panels are extremely straight and it appears that this was a very rust free truck to start out. The body has been tricked out a bit with door handles removed and smoothed out, frenched in antennae, and a custom rear roll pan with smoothed in tail lights. Some very tasteful, professional pin striping was added by the previous owner. Body and paint are in near flawless condition with just a few very minor blems keeping it from being absolutely perfect. This was not built to be a trailer queen. It was built to be driven and enjoyed but will still win plenty of trophies if that is what you enjoy. All of the chrome looks new and the glass is all in excellent shape and has been professionally tinted. Beautiful dark finished wood bed floor with stainless hardware and rails. A couple of cool Chevy Coolers were mounted to enable to you tote your favorite beverages to any of the events you attend in this sweet Hot Rod. Here is a walk around photo tour of the body and at the end of this listing there is a video walk around as well: Complimenting the gorgeous Galaxy Silver exterior is an equally stunning Red and Black interior that has been adorned with custom stitching and pin striping that flow with the exterior highlights beautifully. The 2-tone custom bench seat was embroidered with a design that mimics the custom pin striping and is extremely comfortable and has the look and feel of leather but is a synthetic, durable material. Door panels are finished in red leather and the carpeting and headliner have also been custom done in red. It is hard to miss the expensive, Custom black and red steering wheel from Con2R that is mounted on a Ididit Tilt Steering Column. The dash still retains much of its original appearance but with a sweet set of Autometer gauges, the Vintage Air conditioning control panels and vents neatly cut in to the dash and a Custom Auto Sounds digital stereo neatly mounted. If you fold back the bench seat you will find the set of speakers and amps that provide some sweet tunes when desired. Of course all of the lights and gauges are working correctly. Windshield wipers function thanks to an upgraded Rain Gear Electric wiper conversion. Power windows work great. I think you will find the interior to be as sweet as the exterior and it will draw crowds at the shows for sure. Here is a look inside: Hopefully at this point you will agree that this '55 is a real beauty. But, is she a beast too??? You bet she is...thanks to a freshly Professionally built , Fuel Injected 383 Stroker V8 pushing out over 450 horsepower mated to a 700R4 Automatic transmission with overdrive? When the previous owner had acquired this awesome '55 it had a crate 350 under the hood. He loves a little extra horsepower so it wasn't long before the newly built stroker motor arrived for installation. I am including a video of the Dyno Test from the builder below so you can see the numbers. I am also including a video of this baby starting up and running. There are under 500 miles on this Stroker Motor so it has barely been broken in yet. This Chevy Truck fires right up and fuel is provided by the MSD Atomic Electric Fuel Injection set up. Edelbrock polished intake, March Aluminum Belt Drive System, Polished Vintage Air Compressor and lots of other polished goodies dress the engine bay up nicely for show. This truck runs cool thanks to the Aluminum radiator and electric fans. Ceramic coated headers breathe through a great sounding set of Flowmasters and out the dual exhaust for a sound that any muscle car enthusiast will appreciate. Be sure to listen to the video of this truck start up and running below. As you will see in the dyno video the original goal was to make 450hp but this motor actually put out 484 horsepower. This truck not only has plenty of horsepower for some straight line, stop light to stop light fun, but the 700R4 transmission helps this truck cruise at any speed with ease. This truck handles the road beautifully as well. Power steering feels great and this truck stops awesome with the help of the Power 4 wheel disc brake set up. The Ford 9" rear has 3:73 gears and a great 4-link set up with coil overs helps this truck put the power to the ground in comfort. Great looking set of Billett Specialties 20" wheels. Rear was mini-tubbed to fit the 315/35/20's with 255/40/20's up front. As you will see in the pics below the engine bay and undercarriage are nicely detailed and very clean and this truck is show ready everywhere you look. The best part is that you will have a blast driving it to the shows or anywhere you decide to go!! Have a look and be sure to listen to the videos as well.

GM recalling 15k midsize pickups over leaky brakes
Mon, Jun 8 2015General Motors has announced a recall in coordination with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration related to the brakes on the 2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. In the 14,838 units in the United States estimated to be affected, the front brake calipers may be leaking fluid. Needless to say, that could make them less effective, which could hinder the vehicle's ability to stop in time to avoid a collision. The affected units were all manufactured between January 6 and December 24, 2014. The fix seems simple and straightforward enough, with dealers being instructed to inspect the front brake calipers, and replace them if necessary. See below for all the details from NHTSA. RECALL Subject : Brake Fluid Leak Report Receipt Date: MAY 12, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V278000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 14,838 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Chevrolet Colorado, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured January 6, 2014, to December 24, 2014. The affected vehicles may experience the front brake calipers leaking brake fluid. This is due to air pockets, an imperfection in the metal caliper body. CONSEQUENCE: If the vehicle experiences a brake fluid leak it can increase the stopping distance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the front-brake calipers if necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin July 10, 2015. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14888. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
