I am listing my 1971 short bed project for sale. I have owned it for a few years now and have lost interest. All the parts included are good useable parts. I spent a couple of years looking for good, original parts. My goal was to use as few aftermarket parts as possible. All the sheet metal is genuine GM and in good shape. The doors and fenders have had the bodywork done on the outside. The inner parts are mostly stripped, but need a little more work to be ready to paint. I have all the inside parts for the doors- The regulators, vent windows, and door glass. I also have the rear window, but don't have a windshield. The radiator support is very solid and has no rust in the area under the battery. The hood is just as I bought it. It needs a few dings fixed, but is straight and solid. The cab is from a 1971 GMC and I do have the title to it. It had been repaired by the person I bought it from. He put in cab corners, inner and outer rockers, and he boxed in the cab mounts. He also added an A/C dash and the a/c portion of the firewall. I thought he did a pretty good job until I mounted the doors and realized the body line didn't match up. It will need another set of cab corners installed to fix this. The inside of the cab and firewall have been painted hugger orange. I have a gallon of PPG deltron DBC basecoat paint that I bought to start painting the insides of the fender, doors, hood, etc. that will be included. The bed needs some work, but it doesn't have any rust holes. one bedside has most of the bodywork done. The other side has had 2 bedsides cut in half to try to make one. It is tacked in place and needs welded up and the bodywork finished, or will just need a new bedside if you don't want to finish it. The bed floor is pretty solid, but is a little wavy and has some pitting that could turn into pinholes if you were to sandblast it. The supports underneath are solid. I have a good rust free tailgate. It is straight, but will need a few dings fixed. The chassis has been rebuilt. I took it down to a bare frame, blasted it, sprayed it with Por15, then reassembled it using the following new parts: 4 new ball joints, new control arm shafts and bushings, idler arm, pitman arm, front and rear stock height springs, two awesome used trailing arms I ordered from arizona, trailing arm bushings, brand new track arm with bushings and probably a few other things I have forgotten. The rear end is not a posi and is a 3.08 ratio. The front end needs tie rod ends to be complete. I will include all the new brake parts I have. This includes 2 front calipers, 2 rear wheel cylinders, wagner themo quiet front pads, wearever rear shoes, and all the rear brake hardware. There is a 307 engine and th350 engine bolted in. They both work, but the project is not running at this time. It basically needs everything hooked up. Includes a one piece driveshaft. I have alot of the parts needed to put it back together and will include everything I have. Some of the parts I know I am missing are the radiator, the A/C parts, inner fenders, brake lines, tie rod ends, instrument cluster, windshield, weather stripping, exhaust, bumpers, and probably a few other things I have forgotten. It has a set of 15x8 rally wheels with new take off genuine GM center caps and good original trim rings. The tires are brand new goodyears with no miles that I bought new about a year ago. Let me know if you have any questions or need any other pictures.

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.
Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
