I have a flat red bagged Chevy truck that lays on the ground. Everything has been replaced from front to back
Body: this truck is painted viper red base coat clear coat with a flattening agent in the clear to give it the satin finish. the entire body was been media blasted: I replaced the rockers and cab corners and I shaved the drip rail, I frenched in a smooth gas cap to get rid of the factory one. I shaved the vents out of the wiper cowl and I removed the wiper arm assembly but it can be replaced. I shaved the entire fire wall and did away with the factory heat and make the pass side match the drivers side, I also shaved the drain channel at the top of the fire wall. I put outer skins on the doors and shaved the handles and bought a new header panel and tailgate for the bed. Inside the bed is all spikes to replace the bolts that hold the wood in place, wood and stainless strips are all new as well. All front sheet metal is new a also. The sunroof was in the truck when I got so I left it. The rear fenders have been radius cut 3 inches to clear 22's and still bolt up factory Engine: Rebuilt 350 with a 488 lift cam and everything is chrome and/or billet. Block is painted base coat clear coat red to match the truck, rebuilt 700r4 transmission with a lockout kit for overdrive to work properly and a new driveshaft. Transmission is sitting on a tubular crossmember as well. Aluminum 3 core radiator with billet overflow and red top optima battery Suspension: Frame is painted the same viper red as the truck with shinny clear coat, front clip is painted and rear clip is painted, I did not paint under the cab itself. Front frame is z'd 5 1/2" to lay out on the ground with gussets front and rear to support the work involved. The rear has a big c notch so it will lay out also. The front suspension is out of a '80 model truck so it would be 5 lug and have disc brakes, the hydro boost brake setup is off the same donor truck, rearend is from the same '80 model donor truck and was blasted and painted along with rear disc brake conversion as well. All the suspension is painted house of color Orion silver and clear coated along with the hydroboost pump on the fire wall, wheels are 22x9.5 hello front and rear with painted inserts to match with 245/30/22 tires |

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
