Finished in Forrest Green, this '48 Chevrolet has been lovingly restored to original specifications with a few updates. The wiring system and fuse box have been updated throughout. The paint, chrome, and driveline are in great shape. This is a truck that can be driven and enjoyed. It was restored about 5 years ago and shows well today. Tens of Thousands were invested in the restoration effort. Be sure to play our video of this antique Chevrolet in action. Feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions.

This heavy-duty 1-ton truck is a pleasure to drive. The suspension is ready for what you throw at it. Be sure to play our video of this great old truck in action.

The flat bed rests atop the heavy-duty dually axle.

The attractive 5-Window Cab is in great shape. The glass and seals have been replaced. The fresh air cowl vent is still in place. The Forrest Green paint shows well throughout with only a few flaws. The paint and body are in exceptional condition.

Chevrolet's Advanced Series Pickup Trucks debuted in late 1947 and were produced until 1955. They were touted as a bigger, stronger, and sleeker design.

The front end displays the prominent grille & hood. The bumpers and grille show very well. Turn signals are mounted on the fenders.

Under the hood is the thriftmaster 6 cylinder. This powerplant runs out good and is paired with a 4-speed manual shift transmission. The charging system has been converted to 12-volt. Further inspection will reveal original sheetmetal throughout the firewall, inner fenders and core support.

The interior keeps true to tradition, its spartan at best, but it does have a working heater & factory gauges. The 4-speed standard transmission shifts through the gears as it should. The steering wheel of choice is the great old stock one.

The vinyl bench seat is in great shape.

The dash is clean and detailed, refinished in green with the factory gauges intact and brightwork showing well throughout.

The chassis underbody is very solid and in great shape. This includes the flooring, cab corners, suspension and framework throughout.

All of the tires were replaced with these heavy-duty radials during the restoration work.

Enjoy our remaining photos and again feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions.

Note the paint cracking seen above, this is the worst paint flaw on the truck. It cracked right along the seam, the body is smooth and solid underneath.

The door weatherstrip was replaced and the door metal is in excellent condition left and right.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
