OK, here's my story, I've been building cars professional for over 50 years, I'm slowing down, getting old and hurt all over. To Boot I've run out of money so I'm going to sell off my projects (this one 1st, then maybe others after a successful sale) This is a great opportunity for someone to pickup where I have left off. My wife and I are on SS and no longer have an income to handle our hobbies. My loss will be someone else's Gain. I've put allot of information here and may have left something out. If you have questions, Please ask. I might also be interested in a trade (must have 4 wheels & drive No motor cycles or Boats)
This truck was purchased as a modified street machine done back in the 80s,90s? The pictures of the truck in Black, as a driver were before I started the restore. I drove this truck for about 6 months and was not happy with the ride or gear ratio. So I started this restomode  about July of 2013. This was completely stripped down to the frame and mounted in Rotisserie, sandblasted and painted silver with KBS Coatings. In my opinion this is better then POR 15 and even Powdercoat. Tough as nails, won't rust, even brake fluid won't harm this coating. The differential is new GM 12 Bolt Truck 8.875 Eaton Posi Unit 3.08 Ratio, setup new bearings, seals and 5 Lug Axles By Ring & Pinion Service, Rancho Cordova,Ca. KBS Coated in Black. Rear Disc Brakes w/E brakes are from CPP (Classic Performance Products, Placentia,Ca.)

The Transmission is a Richmond Bullet Proof Six Speed Overdrive Transmission and includes the Owners Manual.  The Radiator is 4 row copper w/ Electric Fan. The Cab, front end and the box/fenders are all off the frame and all need very minor if any Body work, but will need allot of prep for paint.

This truck is on California non op and has 1963 Registered Black Plates. Also includes 2 gallons of yellow and 1 gallon of Orange = 3 gallons Burnt Orange. That is the color that I was going to paint it. I have pictures and will be updating those as I will need to open boxes of parts for those pictures. Don't see something, ask. Do your research on this truck build and parts then do the math. You won't be able to build this truck for less then what you could own it for.    Thanks, Happy Bidding

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
