DFW Speed Shop is selling their 1969 GMC C15. The GMC shorty was completely restored by DFW Speed Shop in late
March 2016. The truck was found in a garage in downtown Dallas where it sat since the late 1980's. It was pulled
out of its hibernation and completely tore down to the bare frame. The frame was blasted and then powder-coated.
Every bushing from the control arms to the body were replaced. The original 12 bolt was rebuilt and a auburn posi
unit and a set of Moser axels were installed. For the suspension, we installed new front drop springs, front drop
spindles, and flipped the rear end to get it low to the ground. The rear leafs were checked and rebuilt. We also
installed disc brakes all around, new master cylinder, and adjustable proportioning valve. The tired original
inline 6 was replaced for a fresh 402 big block and is backed by a M20 Muncie 4speed which was completely gone
through.The exhaust is true duels with a x-pipe which exits right under the steps of the bed (all custom and built
in house). The body was sent to our friends at Sevens Garage for paint. The body was completely taken apart and
any rust that was present was cut out and replaced with new panels. The body and inside the cab was undercoated
for protection. The body was set up in primer before painting and matte clear. The interior is an original hounds
tooth bench and was completely rebuilt. Also a new steering column from CPP was installed. The inside of the cab
was completely restored to its former glory. The door panels were cleaned up and clear coated to preserve the
original patina. The gas tank was relocted to the rear under the bed then plumbed with 6AN braided fuel line all
the to the 790cfm Holley Double Pumper. The wood bed was also completely rebuilt. There is way to much to list
about this truck. A lot of labor and love went into the build of this shorty. This was a nut and bolt restoration
and this truck is very tight. This truck was built to get beat on and have fun with. No corners were cut with
this GMC and it hides no secrets. All the recipts to the build are available to the buyer. This is a hardcore
shorty c15 with no power steering or power brakes. Just a big motor and a muncie 4 speed. E-Mail me with any
questions.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
